Fooled.

Four.

Christina's POV:
It's morning here in Philadelphia, I recently got news that one special person is coming to see me. One of them already came.
Ian, I had a crush on him when we went to school but I was to anti-social that I couldn't even look at him. We were lab partners and dance partners, he did show that he cared for me but I thought it was out of pitty.
Another person who is coming is my brother Harry, I never really talk about him because it's enough that I get used for school stuff.
I love him and all but I just don't want anymore suffrage, after what Melanie told me I don't talk to Brad.
I remember she came to my house and said...
*flashback*
"Hello Christina"
"How can I help you?"
"Howcome you didn't go to school today?"
"I didn't feel well"
"I just came here to warn you about Brad"
"What do you mean? he is my friend"
"That's what he wants you to think, he tricks girls like you so he can just have sex with them, I'm warning you because I know you're new so I'm just watching out for you"
"What...no...he would never do that"
"He would....he did the same thing to me..he is a filthy liar"
"......"
"I think I should leave you alone"
*end of flashback*
That's why I called Bradley because I wanted to know if it was true, and then I regretted it once I ended the call.
And then suddenly fell asleep, then I saw he was in my room. That was the moment that started the argumen. I am really confused I don't know if I still like Ian or if I like Brad or will I forgive him.
It's Saturday and I'm just in bed lying and thinking, until I get a text from Ian. He wrote...
"Morning I was wondering do you want to do something?"
"Morning Ian and um yeah sounds fun"
"Perfect I'll go pick you up around 2"
"Great see you then..."
"See you..."
So I got up and checked the time and it was 9 a.m. so I get up and change, I wear a black maxi skirt with a gray longsleeve crop shirt with a beige cardigan, black knee socks and a greenish jacket with a burgundy infinity scarf. Along with my black Dr.Martens, I just curl my hair a bit and wait.
I just grab my bag and go downstairs, once I go downstairs I tell my mom still not looking at her in the eye saying...
"Mom I'm gonna go out with a friend from back home I'll be back in- HARRY!! YOUR HOME!!"
"Yeah ha I miss you doffus and you finally made friends I see"
"He used to go to my old school he recently started talking to me again because he also transfered"
"Cool"
"Yeah"
"Well have fun"
"Thanks"
I just decided to go outside and sit, Then I went upstairs again and change my shoes into my pointe shoes, I practice for the meanwhile and I hear a doorbell.
I go downstairs changing my shoes and running down with my bag and open the door, seeing Ian.
He was wearing a white dress shirt with short sleeves, and a black tie with black skinny jeans and black vans. He had Lily's in his hand smiled saying...
"Hey um are you ready?"
"Yeah and thank you for the flowers their beautiful"
"Your welcome"
I go in and tell my Mom to put them in a vase and she does so, then Ian opens the door to his car. I get in and he so does he, then he starts the car and tells me...
"You look beautiful by the way"
"Thank you, now where are we off to again?"
"It's a secret"
"Great now you got me curious"
"That was the whole idea of it being a secret"
"Hahaha"
"Hahahaha"
"So did anything change once I left?"
"Yeah...you left me partnerless and lonely I actually enjoyed your company"
"Well we barely talked and I was really akward and looked horrible in the school uniform"
"I enjoyed your presence and I loved admiring your eyes and smile and how you looked perfect everyday"
"Thank you I'm flattered but I strongly disagree haha so um when are you going back?"
"Never"
"What?"
"My family moved here Christina so I moved around the neighborhood"
"Wow that's great"
Then after that we started talking about school and he started making me laugh, then I got a text from Harry...
"Hey dork ;) come home so we an hangout bring your 'friend' if you want to"
"He is my friend and sure"
Me and Ian were at the park and it had an amazing view, it was beautiful. Ian was really a nice guy and I really don't know if my feelings are coming back.
Because I still feel something for Bradley, I tell Ian that he should come over. And he agrees, but first he says he wants to go to a coffee shop that he saw around here when he came.
Since the coffee shop was close to the park we walked there, it was cute it had like vines growing up on the shop's walls and flowers bloomed. It read 'The Garden' it had nice tables out and everything.
We went in and I saw, Melanie there and I got surprised that I flinched a bit. Ian noticed quickly what I did and put his hand on my back, and said...
"What's wrong?"
"Uh-um Can we quickly just get our drinks and leave"
"Um sure"
Ian says not minding my decision, then all of a sudden I feel a cool breeze once Melanie turns around. I tremble at the thought of this, I feel Melanie's cold brown eyes scan my soul. The feeling of running away and hiding gets to me.
Then I hear Melanie's non-soulful voice say...
"Ahh Christina so nice to see you have moved on"
"Um me and Bradley never were a thing we were just friends"
"That's not what I saw darling, but this guy is better for you"
"Um can you excuse us we are kinda in a hurry"
"Sure I had to go anyways goodbye"
Ian didn't move his hand from my back and rubbed it up and down, we got coffee and walked to his car. I was asking myself in my head 'why didn't Ian ask me who Melanie was?' once I said that to myself he answered saying...
"Sorry for being nosey but um who was she?"
"She's Melanie don't trust her ok she isn't a person you can trust believe me she looks like it and it's confusing but just stay away ok"
"sure um did you like Bradley?"
Once Ian asked me this question in my head I got two answers yes and no, but my feelings for Ian are coming back so I answer...
"Not really"
"Oh"
I really just don't know anymore, because I don't know if I should trust Melanie or not. My instincts tell me not to, everytime I see her, eyes are on me my instincts immediately tell me not to trust her.
Ian just opened the car door for me and we started driving to my house, Ian then started talking about how we used to do choreography's and how when we were little we would do ballet pieces.
We went to school in NY since we were little, so we know eachother. We just start laughing and keep remembering all the stuff we did in the school.
We finally arrive to my place, I see one car parked which is Harry's. Ian turns off the ignition and get's out of the car to open my door. He bows down and says...
"Me lady"
"Why thank you sir"
We both just start laughing, I don't know why but I feel comfortable with Ian. I think it's because we've known eachother for a long time, but we never talked but in a way it feels like we did.
I don't know if that makes sense to you but it does in my head. We both walk to my house door and I take out my keys and open the house door.
I go in and hang up my keys and yell out to Harry...
"Harry! I'm home!! where are yo-"
I say as I stay in shock that Bradley was here and my brother was laughing a long with him, how do they know eachother? how are they friends? how is this possible?
These are all questions I am frantically asking myself, I just stand there surprised. Ian again puts his hand on my back and is smiling, Harry then smiles and looks at us and says...
"Hi Christina! Hi Ian! Bradley this is my little sister Christina and her 'friend' Ian"
Bradley's smile quickly fades and says...
"We know eachother, We go to the same school"
I then say...
"Um yeah"
Ian then says...
"how did you guys meet?"
Bradley then butts in because Ian was looking at me, expecting Me to answer the question. But he decides to answer the question by saying...
"well first of all that day Christina came to the school I was running late so the dean caught me and was gonna give me a demerit but the principal re thought everything and wanted me to give Christina a tour of the school in exchange that I would not get a demerit, and so I did....so that's how we met"
"wow that's cool''
Then Harry notices my face as to saying that it just got really akward because either Bradley liked me or that I like Ian now but Bradley likes me now and I need help type of face. Yeah I know pretty expressive right. So Harry then says...
"Um Christina Mom said she needed something for you to do in the kitchen come follow me I'll show you"
"What could you possibly show me Harry''
"Just follow me Christina"
I was really confused if Harry was being serious if he was gonna show me something my Mom wanted me to do, or just wanted to tell me something. I just follow Harry into the kitchen and he says calmly...
"Did you have a thing with Bradley...like a fling or something?"
"I don't know the clear idea of 'fling' ok?"
"Did you like have sex with him or anything or like go out?"
"Harry you ask these questions as if you didn't even know me?!"
"Sorry...your right but anyways answer the question"
"No! Harry! of course not!"
"Good, it's not like he's a bad guy it's just that it would be really akward knowing you guys had a thing together"
"Hahahaha true"
"Do you still like Ian?"
"I'm not sure Harry"
"Oh because he does show he does"
"Really? Oh my gosh I don't know what to do Haz"
"Well Bradley is going on tour in a couple of months so you will have time to think"
"I don't know Harry I mean he is in my school how will I not see him? Huh? ugh I don't know I'll just see what happens"
"If you ever need help or anything at all just know I'm here ok and I always will no matter the distance"
"Thanks Haz"
I said as I was hugging him, He was my only bestfriend when I didn't have anybody. Ever since he left I don't see him much, I don't talk much either.
He is like my bestfriend and my brother, I miss him lots. I miss him going to my performances, my recital's. Him being my brother...It's not the same anymore.
We all just hangout in the living room, my Mom is at work and so is my Dad. They don't come home till late so we just started watching movies and the guys are gonna sleep over.
Ian was getting cuddly and by the looks of it Bradley was annoyed, Harry noticed it also so he sat inbetween me and Bradley. Ian had his arm around me and I was getting sleepy also so I just cuddled into him.
Bradley was annoyed like furious, I don't know if I'm the only one seeing this but it's happening. We all then got tired and decided to go to sleep.
Ian, Bradley, and Harry were gonna sleep in one room and I was gonna sleep in mine. We all walked up the stairs and the guys started going into Harry's room. Ian was inbetween Harry and Bradley, Ian stopped at the doorway and said....
"Goodnight Christina sweet dreams"
"Goodnight Ian"
Bradley looked me dead in the eye and it sent shivers all over my body, Then he went in and Harry came out and said...
"Goodnight dork"
"Goodnight Haz"
"It feels good to be home, when is your next recital?"
"Um soon, in a couple of weeks"
"Great can't wait to see you perform again"
"Thank you goodnight Haz"
"Goodnight"
I walked in my room and closed the door and changed into my pajamas which concluded of a tank top and sweats. And tied up my hair and turned off the lights and went to bed, I covered myself with the bed sheets and closed my eyes.
I then hear the door knob turning and I hear footsteps the person said...
"Can I sleep with you?"
I responded saying not turning toward the door...
"Of course come on Haz"
He slowly walks over to me and puts an arm around me and says...
"Boy I miss you already, why did you have to get out of my grasp you were perfect I need you Christina"
"Haz?"
I turn around and it's Bradley, I get up quickly and Bradley gets up too I was gonna scream but Bradley shuts me up by kissing me.
The kiss becomes heated, he picks me up and sits me on his lap. The kiss becomes very heated, his hands roaming my body.
He then says...
"I love you Christina I need you"
He says as he plasters his lips on mine I again leave my hands on my sides and he takes my hands placing them at the hem of his shirt and he says...
"I think you can use common sense from here"
I play with the hem of his shirt still insecure, he just whispers into the kiss saying...
"Stop teasing me just do me the favor please"
I just nod and pull up his shirt half way and he just takes it off himself, he then says...
"I need to be with you Christina"
"Bradley you have to tell me everything then"
"Fine I'll tell you everything but I'm staying here for the night"
"Deal"
Once I was done saying that Bradley started saying how Melanie had thing for him but he really never liked her, he told her nicely how she wasn't the girl for him. But sadly she didn't let go of him so now whenever Bradley talks or hangs out with a girl Melanie makes it her duty that the girl never talks to Bradley ever again.
Bradley then told me how she has even scared girls away from the school, it frightened me actually cause she sounded insane. As time passed and Bradley finished his story my eyes were commanding me to go to sleep.
My body was calling to my bed and to rest, Bradley was in the same situation. I layed down and so did he, he wrapped an arm around me. Instantly a memory started flowing through my head. I started to remember how I first met Ian.
*flashback*
I remember my teacher announcing...
"Ok kids silence, We have a new pupil today he is a transfer student so welcome him"

She said as she called Ian in and he was in the school's uniform, he had his bookbag low. I was in homeroom at the time, I was really socially akward since my childhood.

I sat alone in the middle of the room, each student had a pair...except me.
I just kept fiddling with my feet wanting to continue on with the class and hoping that the new kid wouldn't treat me like the others.

The teacher then spoke saying...
"Everybody this is Ian Eastwood he has joined our prestigious school and has become a memeber of the society, Ian you can sit next to Alyssa"
The teacher instructed him, but he looked in my direction.

My ocean blue eyes connecting with his beautiful brown ones, He smiled. Once the teacher had said to Ian to sit next to Alyssa I knew he was gonna treat me like the others, Because Alyssa was like another Melanie. He then motioned the teacher to get closer to him and he whispered something in her ear.

then she said...

"What a great decision...go ahead"
He then walked to the empty desk that was next to mine and sat down, everybody in the room started to gasp as he made that decision. Ian came in my school in the 5th grade, when we lived in New York. Ever since that day Ian became my partner for everything, except my partner relatioship wise. I really liked Ian he was so sweet and treated me diffrently from others.

Which is why I grew to like him.

Because he was different from the others, he would try to talk to me and make me feel special.

Once he sat next to me in that moment he said...

"My name is Ian nice to meet you, what's your name?"

"Uh um Christina"

"Beautiful name I like it"

"Thank you"

And that was the moment that chaned everything.
