A turn of events

Chapter 9

I did my math exam today and I feel like my life ended too. I have now the job to make Lyon fall in love with me alone without anything, that's terrifying. Should I just stop? He is too good for me anyway. For now, I have to think of something else. The boys asked me to take a walk in the park this afternoon, I don't know why, but fresh air will be good for my good for nothing, brain.

"So did pretty boy fall into your arms already?" Sting asked, when we were out of school.

"Umm... no." I said in a sigh. "And I think I'll just stop, I tried and nothing worked, I can't do this."

The guys looked at me with a sad awkward face. Rogue probably feels bad, but I think Sting is only trying to be a good friend for once, which he is not good at actually.

"That's a bit sad... Ummm, but you should see other boys! If he didn't see you like this, well, too bad for him! There's other fish in the ocean! Rogue for example."

I blushed at the mention of Rogue and felt weird all of a sudden at the idea of having my best friend as a boyfriend. Korimi No! Don't think about it! Sting is just being stupid. I looked at Rogue to see his reaction and I think I never saw him glaring at his brother like this.

"I said nothing! Sting exclaimed, hiding behind me. "Oh look! That guy is cute!"

"Sting no!"

"I'll take him then."

He tried getting to the guy, but I grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and placed him beside me again.

"You stay here, I don't want to see you make a fool of yourself that guy is obviously with his girlfriend, stupid."

"Maybe it's his sister!" Sting said and we looked at the boy who just leaned in to kiss the girl in front of him. "Never mind then."

"Told ya." I said, laughing. "What are we doing in the park anyway, it's not really your style to take a walk in the park Sting."

"Fresh air is good, I thought it would do you good." Rogue said, smiling at me. "You think too much you should just relax and spend time with friends."

"You're right, thank you Rogue."

I got on my tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek. I think I saw a faint blush creeping on his cheek and when I turned around I saw Sting smirking, so I hit him, I feel better now.

"Hey! Why are you hitting me?!"

"Stop smirking."

Sting crossed his arms and sulk, making me and Rogue laugh. We spent a while walking and at a moment Rogue suggested we take a pause and buy an ice cream. That boy knows how to make my day, ice cream is life.

"Rogue take this! I said, giving him money, but he refused.

"No, I am treating you and I don't want to hear anything."

"But!"

"No but."

This time I was the one sulking. I hate when people buy me something, I feel bad every time. While the guys ordered, I looked for a bench not far from the pallor and waited. It's been a while since the guys ordered. I hope there's no problem because it's weirdly long. After what seems to be 10 minutes maybe more? The guys came back and Rogue handed me my cone.

"Sorry for the wait, I know you liked it dip in chocolate, but they didn't have enough for a cone sadly."

"It's okay I feel already bad you bought it I will not say anything." I laughed and was going to take it, then I saw something on my ice cream.
