Sebastian p.o.v
While I'm doing my homework on the desk, a bright orange glow catches my eye. I head towards the window to see a house on fire. I've been trying to make up an excuse to ditch my homework for the past hour and now I finally have it. Picking up my jacket, I dash towards the door to to check the scene. Fortunately I live near the house so I won't be needing my car. Once I arrive at the scene, I know that the fire is actually much more bigger than how I imagined it to be. I see a fire truck pulling up and handling the whole fire situation.
My eyes carry me to a family that are on the street staring at the house in complete horror with only pajamas on. It's a family of five with the parents,two guys and one girl. I immediately recognize the girl as Blake Stevenson the only girl at school that's not trying to get into bed. She's also the only other person that has the same reputation as me,and by reputation I mean as the"bad guy/girl". Which is very dumb if I say so myself because they don't even know us and they just assume that we're bad or tough people. Just because someone doesn't talk to you or doesn't behave like how other people do, then it doesn't mean we're in a gang or we're trouble.
However I can tell that Blake is a very tough person although I doubt that she's in a gang. She's very real and is might I say very blunt. She just doesn't go around in tight or exposing clothing to impress me or any other person. She's the only person that I can actually tolerate besides the very few that I let in.
My four other friends go by the names of Theo, Ricky, Minho and Athena. All of my friends are good looking people, to be frank we're a good looking friend group. While Minho and Athena are a bit more reserved and quite, theo and Ricky are just wild and always cracks joke and parties more than I definitely would. To describe myself, I would say that I'm a bit of both, but without the countless hookups and parties ever other weekend. However, don't be fooled because they can all just as easily act completely around other people that they aren't comfortable with.
Walking back home I see that I got five missed calls from Athena. I quickly call her back to see if anything happened, but to my surprise when she answers all I could hear was music thumping in the background. Which is weird since she usually isn't the part girl type. When I ask her what's up she replies with " can you pick me up from the party" I could barely understand her because she slurred after every word. When I pick her up she starts speaking gibberish and eventually knocks out. When I pull up at her house I notice that Minho is there and, he looks very relieved to find me carrying her towards her house. When I reach the front door, he silently helps me by opening the door and carrying her towards the coach. When we set her gently down, we move towards the kitchen and he suddenly blurted out " I think that it's my fault that she got so hammered"
"why do you think that it's your fault" I said.
"Because I kinda maybe sort of confessed to her." He said while scratching the back of my head .He almost looked as if he was embarrassed by it and he was one of the few people that never got embarrassed ever. While trying to hold back from laughing at his face because that's the last thing he needs right now,
I say " since when "
"Since always, I never told anyone because I thought she had a thing for you and I didn't know your side of your things so I just backed off"
With that I knew that I couldn't hold my laughter. After what seems like a bajillion years, I control myself and say while chuckling in between my words " why would I ever have a thing for her she's like my little sister and I'm sure she feels like same way about me ".
When I said that, he immediately turned towards me and said " you don't see it do you. She looks at you as if she's been in love with you for years which I think she has been. You say you don't think of her like that but I'm pretty sure she think of you like that and probably much more"
When he sees confusion on my face, he groans loudly and shoves his hand in his his hair.
"Sebastian why do you think she always jumps at the opportunity to tutor you or be alone with you. She doesn't care what she's doing as long as it's with. why do you think she was always aggressive or jealous whenever you were with another girl. dude she's in love with you."
Wow I don't understand why I'm now realizing everything and seeing all the signs she showed me. Now I feel bad for Minho cause he had to suffer seeing the love of his life be in love with his best friend.
"So what do I do, do you want me to make it clear to her that I don't like her or do you want me to befriend her or what..."
"No no no don't do anything because she told me how she felt and I don't want her to lose respect and trust with me. So please don't do anything unless she forces herself onto you. "
I understand where he's coming from, but now I'm gonna start to observe her now and be more cautious of her.
"Sure I won't say of do anything, unless it's too much than I can't promise anything, see you Monday dude". With that I turn around and head home to take a hot shower and forget about what I was just told.Hope you like the chapter.
