My Popular Roommate

Chapter 5

I was really surprised about what I heard today. Jessie was cheating on Josh! That is unbelievable. I know she is so over-confident, acted as a bitch, but it wouldn't ever cross my mind that she is cheating on him. She cheated so she doesn't love. At all. 

I walked to my dorm after a very long day. I had a lot of classes today which was tiring for me. I opened my door and my eyes hit Josh who had his eyes glued to his Ipad. I didn't want to disturb him so I made no voices at all. I started to take off my shoes then my jacket slowly. He looked at me slowly as he noticed my presence. 

''When did you come in?'' He asked. I was actually very surprised by the question. Didn't expect it to come up at all. 

"Five minutes ago.'' He nodded but not taking his eyes off me yet. 

''Where are you going?'' He asked as I took my pyjama and was about to go the toilet. 

''Change?'' I answered but it came out more like a question. 

''Don't be shy.'' He said slowly. What is wrong with him? He stood up and walked to where I was standing. At this instance, I found it very hard to breath. This was a very first time feeling. Haven't felt like that before. Part of me was very happy but the other was really confusing. I stared into his eyes when he was just inches apart. Being so close to him wasn't that scary but it actually felt good like in other words, I felt safe. 

Breaking my thoughts, Josh placed both of his hands on each side of my face and a second later I found myself pulled to him and his lips on mine. My heart danced as if I was waiting for this to happen but it really surprised me cuz I knew i wasn't waiting for this. I shut my eyes to enjoy every part of the kiss. I was so taken by it. How hard the kiss was but how soft his lips felt on mine. I wanted to stay like this forever. This was the happiest moment in my life. Felt so right but unfortunately it ended as we pulled away breathless. I knew my cheeks were burning red now. He stared deep in my eyes and I did so. I was looking for an answer in his eyes. Why did he kiss me? I knew asking him will be so rude especially that I enjoyed what happened and I guess he did too. 

''I'm sorry.'' He apologized slowly still staring at me. ''This shouldn't have happened.'' He said uncomfortably while I just nodded. I felt my cheeks burn and my legs so week. We just stayed there looking for each other neither of us moving a centimeter. 

''I think I have to change.'' I started after what seems like forever. I wanted to cut off this awkward moment. I walked to the bathroom, closed it after me and stood behind the door. I closed my eyes and placed a finger on my lips remembering the unforgettable kiss. I was still blushing. Just the thought of the kiss brought a smile to my lips. 

I walked to the mirror and stared at myself, my finger still placed on my kissed lips. ''Wow'' I found myself suddenly saying. 

''Did you shower or something?'' Josh asked as soon as I opened the toilet's door and got out. 

''Umm..m..no.'' I answered uncomfortably as I wrapped my right hand around the side of my neck. 

''Why is the late then?'' He asked giving me a smirk. I knew he wanted to smile but wanted to hide it. 

''I was changing.'' 

''Oh..Kay.'' Was all what he said as he relaxed on his bed and covered himself. I did the same as I was really dying to sleep. Closed the lamp next to me and Josh did the same too. 

When I was just about to sleep I hear him saying ''Sage?'' 

''Hmm..'' I moaned in my sleepy mood but my eyes still opened. 

''I loved the kiss.''With this I shut my eyes and smiled. i loved it too!

''What's wrong with you today?'' Sarrah asked. I dunno really. I was lost in my thoughts. A lot of things were going in my mind right now. Last night was like one of those perfect nights. I couldn't really believe it happened. | can't believe Josh kissed me and for god's sake I loved the kiss. Well, this is another point here. I did really love the kiss that I couldn't stop thinking about it. Damn! 

''I dunno, Sarrah.'' I lied. Didn't want to talk about it. At least not now , I mean never. I mean nothing really happened between us. It was just a normal kiss. 

''I know you. What are you thinking about?'' For a moment I opened my mouth to tell but then nothing came up so I was shut again. 

''Babe, I miss you.'' Jessie moaned as she kissed a guy, probably the one she cheated on Josh with. Josh was passing by so I guess that was a reason for what she did now. This girl should really grow up. Josh didn't seem hurt or anything. He just ignored her as if he never even knew her. Well, I guess that bitch deserves. 

 I was so curious to know what will happen next so I passed by their table pretending to bring water. 

''What the fuck man? You shouldn't leave that girl like this. Go kick her ass.'' I heard Josh's friend yelling to him. Everyone felt bad for Josh and a lot of students said that she deserves a lot more than a slap. 

''Sage.'' Josh called as he noticed me holding water and about to go back to my table. 

''Yes?'' I asked. His friends' attention was like 100 percent glued on us now. 

''Umm..uhh..Can I have some water?'' He asked pointing at the bottle in my hand. I was really confused cuz he had a bottle right in front of him. 

''You have one.'' I said slowly looking at his bottle. His friends laughed. In this school, the popular crowd is really huge. What is really embarrassing is that they were looking at us. 

''Have a seat then.'' I frowned. I felt scared. Scared of doing this again and putting myself in the same trouble for the second time. I don't trust the popular crowd anymore. The say ''The injury is not yet healed.'' Then how will I injure myself again before healing the first one. I didn't and I would never forget what happened ever. Getting used and abused. 

''Sorry, I"ve got to leave.'' I found myself saying as I pushed past whoever was there in front of me and ran out of the whole cafeteria. I didn't expect Josh to follow me at all but that was until someone grabbed my hand. I turned. 

''What's wrong?'' He asked when I faced him. I looked pale. Flashbacks were crossing my mind again. 

''I'm fine.'' I lied. 

''You don't seem fine.'' 

''But I'm fine. I'm just new and I don't know your Friends and I'm not that popular, Josh. Don't even want to be one.'' I am a so straight forward person so I told him what I wanted him to know and what I felt. 

''I'm sorry. I didn't mean it but I just wanted you to be there.'' He apologized. 

''I understand.'' I nodded to myself not looking at him. He moved steps forward and my face becomes red and red every step he takes. 

''Any plans for the weekend?'' He asked. Are these normal questions? OR Am I exaggerating? 

''I will go to my mom's place.'' 

''Want a ride?'' he offered but I didn't answer instead I smiled. 

''It is okay. I can handle.'' I answered after a little time of thinking. I mean we hate each other. We fight and we're not even friends. 

''Cool! I knew you wouldn't even argue I mean holy shit who would refuse a one in a million offer from the hottest guy in school.'' I couldn't take it but laughed and he did too. I haven't realized yet that his laugh was...CUTE! 

''So full of yourself.'' I teased as I moved past him. Grabbing me from my waist our bodies were now touching. OHH! This isn't going well. 

''We're not friends yet. I like the way I hate you.'' I guess this guy is crazy. Being so close to me like this, his hands on my waist and his lips only inches apart so yes I like  the way I hate him too.....
