DREAM KINGS (Shawn Mendes x Harry Styles)

C h a p t e r [77]

I breathe in and sucked it up. I still have to make him dinner even though I'm still shaking. I head downstairs and straight into the kitchen and made him dinner quietly. He's still my concern anyways and I have to treat him like what my mother told me to do so. After making him his dinner, I cleaned the kitchen and head upstairs with an empty stomach.

Down to my bed, I closed my eyes but heart still feels so heavy from that argument. Slowly, I fell deep and asleep. Luke shows up in my dreams but I wasn't happy there either. We were at some tiny space and we were just talking. I was surprised after I heard myself telling him that I wanted him to stop. That I'm ending everything with him. He's just emotionless then he walks away holding someone's hands. To my side, I heard a familiar voice, he was chuckling and talking. I called his name but he didn't respond, until another voice comes, a feminine voice like I've heard it somewhere before. It just gets louder and louder. I gasp for air and sat and woke up in my bedroom.

I breathe in and ran my hand on my hair blocking my face, the bracelet made a tiny hitting sound. I slowly put my hand down and looked at it on my wrist. It says 'Smile' but I don't have the energy to put it on my lips. I don't even know if I have the guts to see him after what happened last night. I pressed my eyes and sighed. I stood up, fixed my bed and went downstairs.

I was expecting to see him in the living room but he wasn't there. I even slowly head into the kitchen to be cautious but he wasn't there either. The dinner I made last night's not even touched nor moved, but still, I think a little positive. He might just be upstairs, still sleeping. I head inside the bathroom and took a shower, it took me lots of minutes, I went upstairs to my room and changed to casual wear. I ran downstairs with my bag and school things, and again, I expected to see him in the living room or in kitchen, but I guess I expected too much.

I sat, unwrapped the food I made last night, some were already spoiled, some were just fine and okay to be consumed. I took a few bites before deciding to just throw them away. I sat for more, 5 minutes more and I'm already late.

Decided, I stood, locked the door and went to school. As I enter the room, he was already there. Sitting with his hands on the top of his table. I clenched my teeth in anger, I was actually waiting for nothing!

"Ah, Miss Archer." Ma'am Zusette says, "Why are you late?"

I simply apologized and she told me to get inside the room. It was my first warning. I sit on my chair, upset.

Luke leans sideways and asked, "Why're you late? That was the first one."

"I woke up late." I just said as an excuse.

Sitting, I feel like I wanna punch him so bad in the face but I kept quiet. Today, if he leaves me alone and go home again by himself, then be it. If he doesn't want to talk to me, to be with me, then fine.

The whole day went by so quick, the bell rang. We were dismissed. Shawn snatched his bag and went out. Yuna grabbed her bag too and immediately run, I don't know if she's going home or going to catch him up. I know he's heading home by himself again and I know it's my last piece. I'm not going to please him again.

"Hey May, let's go?" Luke says.

I shake my head, "I'm gonna go somewhere Luke. I'm sorry but it's a no for now; but you can take me home tomorrow. That's a promise."

He nods, "Where are you going?"

"I don't know. I just need to go somewhere."

"Okay, understood. Tomorrow, alright?"

"Mhm. Tomorrow. That's a promise."
