"Promise me that you won't make a big deal out of this," I warned him. "I don't want to add fuel to the fire. Plus, classes haven't even started yet, I don't want to be that girl that makes enemies before the first day."
"I can't promise you anything," he said in a joking but firm tone. I wanted to slap him for not taking this seriously. "So, what if you make a few enemies? It's not the end of the world."
Making more enemies was exactly what I didn't need right now. Who knows how many enemies that I have at this moment with the whole break-in and secretive document situation. "It is for me," I muttered to myself, only audible enough for myself. I had to make sure that Andrei or anyone else will not find out about it.
"What was that?" his voice breaking the silence. Oh, snap. Did he hear me?
"Nothing. But, Andrei. Please just promise me that you won't make this a bigger deal than it is already. I don't want to give those girls another reason to hate me. Also, you can't just go around saying you're my boyfriend!" I exclaimed with crimson cheeks and frustratingly waving my arms in the air. I almost forgot about that small detail since I was too overwhelmed and shock during the show he put on.
As I was glaring at him, a small smirk was playing against his lips. It disappeared and was quickly concealed with his usual bored expression. "If that's what you want," he said with a dramatic exhale, placing his hands in front of him to show that he's going to back off.
"Yes. That's what I want. Don't go around thinking you can just do as you please," I told him when the image of his strong arms wrapping around me popped up in my head. It was the most action I've had in a while. Not that I've had a lot at all in the total 19 years that I've been alive for. My mum had always been so strict on boys which contributed to the lack of experience I have in the boy department.
Although, technically I have had my first kiss before. If you considered a kiss at 4 years-old a first kiss. I don't even recall that kiss, it was my mum that told me that it happened. My mum and Mason's mum would always bring that up during our family outings together. It was quite embarrassing. Mason and I don't see each other in ways other than platonic which makes it even more awkward when our parents would mention our first kiss together.
"Oh, please. Who's going to stop me?" he mocked.
"Uh. I will if need be," I scoffed in disbelief that he was turning this into an argument.
