Bad Boys Need Love Too

Chapter 15: He Doesn't Date

I didn't have enough sleep last night and I don't know what I'm supposed to feel about the constant repeating of Sebastian and I's little accident. Other moments I find myself smiling then I'll get irritated with myself for smiling about it.

"You look like a crazy person that was walking all day at the street and It's still morning." She said disgustingly pushing my hair with a pencil behind my ear. "You okay though?"

"No." I shook my head. "I couldn't sleep last night." I sat down on a nearby bench.

"Why? What happened?" She asks as she sits next to me.

"I-he, the thing is..." I couldn't let the words out of my mouth, especially when it concerns his brother and his lips.

"What?" Her brows up looking at me, waiting for my explanation.

"Nothing." I sighed.

"Nothing means there is something. Spill!" She slaps me on my arms but wasn't too hard.

"Just the neighbor next door, he had his dog outside last night and it wouldn't stop barking." I lied.

"Oh, I see." She nodded.

"Yes." I felt a bit guilty of lying to her again.

"My brother said you're with him last night." She said it casually that it made me nervous inside. "He said he helped you at the diner."

"Was that it that he said?" I was trying not to stutter in my words, so she won't notice.

"Yeah. You know him, even if you don't ask him, he'll share." She gave me a smile which made me more anxious. Is she testing me? But Nina doesn't do that kind of thing. "You know, I think Sebastian's dating someone."

"H-how can y-you say so?" I bit my lower lip as it came out in a stutter.

"He seems different and giddy sometimes that It's annoying." She rolls her eyes.

"Do you have an idea who it might be?" I tried to know what she knows somehow.

"I don't know. Could be anyone in school, maybe the lunch lady." She laughs at her words, tried my best to laugh as well in her joke. "But I think he isn't though. Well, I don't know. He doesn't really date, maybe I'm just thinking too much." She shrugs her shoulders.

"Maybe." Was all that I can say for I myself wasn't sure about Sebastian. It's true he never was once in any serious relationship before, after Kylie.

"Kylie!" Nina said and what a coincidence it was the same time that I thought of the name. "He's probably talking to Kylie again. There have been rumors that she'll be coming back after 2 years."

"She's coming back..." I felt a bit sad about hearing about it from Nina. Perhaps his only trying to use me to get back at Kylie for leaving him before. He just wanted to show her that he already had moved on when she comes back. I somehow felt betrayed even though there was nothing between Sebastian and me.

"Hey." Sebastian poking my side as he sits in a chair next to me. "I was looking all over for you. The teacher said you were at the clinic with a headache, so I bought you this. But you weren't there so-" I stood up from my seat and move to the other table, though it will be a sign for him to get lost. "So, as I was saying.. I looked for you around and here you are." He followed and sat next to me again. He puts a bag of medicine and some Hershey's chocolate.

"No, thank you." I went to the shelves to get another book. He followed me as well.

"You know, I could stay and keep you company." He was wearing a smile like he really means all of it.
