Let's Fly Together

12

Juno's POV

Walking to school, I spotted a familiar figure with her bag slings to her left side.

I was wondering about that. She's right handed yet she carries her bag always on the left side.

She probably felt my presence as she turns around to meet my gaze smiling.

"Good morning Umm.. Maam" she greeted me with a hint of playfulness to her voice

"Good morning Nessa. " I replied

I also greeted back the students who's walking passed us.

"Did you have a good sleep?" I asked Nessa knowing we slept late last night.

"Yeah. I even had the best dream." she countered teasing

"Ow. Can you tell me about your dream then??" I asked a bit amused

"I can't" she responded making me look at her

"But I can show you. " she added in a whisper making me shiver

I bit my lower lip to contain my thirst. This isn't right. I shouldn't feel something like this to her. I will just hurt her.

And I let us get this far huh,

Now that we're this comfortable to each other, I'm starting to feel bad. My thoughts consumed me as we're walking side by side. Why did I let this happen in the first place?

I didn't mutter a single word until reaching my room to say goodbye. She probably thought I'm mad or something.

I leaned on my table trying to think about this whole situation.

"Why did I ever let this happened?? " I asked outloud looking through my phone

Few months back then, I find her interesting. Everytime she blushes as I catch her checking me out, or just seeing each other in the hallway, she will smile warmly at me before looking down shyly. That time she really caught my attention when I saw her playing basketball with the boys on the gym. That side of her is really cool. I still remember that moment when she passed two of her defender and went for a lay up.

Now I keep thinking about her huh.

"This is getting really bad. " I whispered facepalming

I'm really intrigued by her. Shes fascinating, the way she slightly stutter or avoid my gaze made her more adorable. That's why I gave her my number, but I never intended for us to be like this.

I have a boyfriend for goodness sake! How can I look at her like that.

She never asked me if I'm single and I didn't tell her about Ken because at first,  I'm just really teasing her. But after a while, I got used to have her company and I can't bring myself to tell her that I have a boyfriend. I mean, I thought I was just enjoying her witty messages and flirty comments at first but now I've been confused for a few months. I also don't want this to end. She's making me happy all the time.

I've been too attached to her. I seldom responded to Ken's messages or calls but for Nessa, it's a must to text her all night even though we just saw each other at school.

Ken and I are 5 years in relationship if you even call that a relationship. We're not like the normal couples out there. Maybe because we just became a couple to please our parents.

I know I love Ken because he's my bestfriend since we're in diapers but my attraction to Nessa is undeniable. I never like girls before so maybe that's why I never hesitated flirting out of sheer curiosity.
