Forbidden Love

Chapter 2 : Past Love

Mark looked away as his little crush had saw him stealing glances at him. His already pink cheeks became red with embarrassment. I was totally flustered and that his dear friends had noticed.

"What happened?" Flake asked curious by Mark sudden change of expression.

"N-nothing." Mark stuttered trying to hide his awkwardness.

"You sure?" Calev asked raising a brow at him since he knew Mark better than himself.

"Y-yeah." Mark insisted.

"Then, Judith was saying that she wanted to go to Dreamy Coffee, you wanna come or you want to stay in the light snow?" Asked Raven to the rest of the group.

"Of course we want to come!" Yelled all the boys in unison.

Raven and Judith chuckled by the boys innocent action. They had yelled just like children who want ice cream. With that, they started to walk to the sweet smelling shop. "Boys are so childish sometimes."  Thought Raven. They soon reached the shop and choose a large table at the back of the shop. They were peacefully chatting with each other and recalling old memories when someone entered the little coffee shop for the pleasure of Mark. He was with a girl who remarkably resemble him. Maybe it's his sister.

The boy sure noticed him but quickly looked away and pulled his sister to a table before going behind the counter. Keir took off his coat and put on an apron and tied it behind his back. He put his hand in his hair and giggled from some girls echoed through the whole shop.

"You still have this effect on girls." A rather amused voice said to him.

He was pretty pleased to hear this voice he hadn't heard for the last three weeks.

"Hey Neil! How are you?" He inquired, smiling like a fool.

"I'm fine Keir..you know, I'm kinda surprised you actually showed up." He said with a calm voice.

"If you are surprised, that doesn't show on your face." Keir said smirking.

Like always, Neil had his habitual  calm expression on his face. Neil was Keir's best friend and closest cousin. Keir had known Neil for what we can say forever. He had always supported him through his ups and downs. He couldn't dreamed of a better bestie.

"Hey..you know..that boy on the last table has been watching since you entered the shop." He said while looking at Keir with a questioning look.

"Who?" Keir asked, although he  already knowing who it was.

"Him." He said pointing at the short yet ravishing boy, squished between his friends.

"Oh him! He was staring at me before I come here." He stated, still looking at the boy, who was now fidgeting with the long sleeves of his shirt visibly flustered.

"Plus, he is not my type." He said getting annoyed with how Neil was questioning him.

"Maybe he is not yours but you are his." Neil said smirking at Keir.

"Oh please, stop it now, Neil!" Keir pleaded joining his hand together.

And there came trouble, devil itself with high heels. She sure was elegant and beautiful. She had that perfect body and that sweet yet luring voice that atttacted boys like a magnet but beware, she was dangerous. She was Brittany Hollow. Once she set her eyes on something or someone, she will make sure that it is hers and no one else's. She entered that with such grace that all boys turned to admire her. She made them danced to her tunes. She finally stopped at the counter, right in front of Keir and looked seductively in his eyes.
