A Jog Down The Memory Lane

Chapter 4 : Hi there, Boyfriend

Slamming my locker shut was a clear indication that I was still fuming , and I might say that people knew when to kept to themselves as right now they looked anywhere but at me. They knew I was the devil incarnated when I was in one of my moods. Good for them though , that snobby voice commented again but this time I completely agreed with her.

Shooting Kim a glare , for what she was oblivious yet but not for long , I took my English books and turned towards corridor C . I was sure the world was conspiring against me , when I bumped once again into none other than James .

Is this idiot following me , would he try to kidnap me and then take me...shut up inner voice I remarked abruptly before the train of thoughts got out of hand.

James looked up and said in an expression which screamed who is this weirdo," excuse me? "

Had I said all that out loud? Major embarrassment ahead if he heard it..

Returning the very same expression , I played cool and asked whether he made it his rightful duty to bump into me at every freaking corner.
In reply to which I witnessed his cheeks turn a pretty pink and with an embarrassed stutter he told me that he was looking for English 2.

"Oh, you're new. English 2 is just right .....". Isn't that my class too? Then why the hell am I giving him instructions , why not......

" Um...., why did you stop? Did you forget as well?", James said with an even expression but I suspected a hidden smirk which I found better to let go at the moment.

"Haaha No, its my class too , so I'll accompany you there myself ", I said with a dismissive smile. This guy seems interesting, I thought as I entered the class room with James close behind me. The teacher wasn't there yet so I had the liberty to sit around and chat with my team mates a bit or if u call listening to them speak about ever random topics chat , then yes.

English was probably one of my favourite subjects as I had this passion of reading and writing . Yep , I was a total nerd. English went by in a breath when the teacher gave us a writing assignment and I soon found myself walking towards my locker . To my utter bewilderment , someone grabbed my hand and pulled me in for a hug. As soon as he embraced me , I knew it was Aaron , my footballer \ school player \ boyfriend.

Smiling at him , I ruffled his brown curls out of his grey eyes which analysed me with a glimmer of amusement and happiness. He gave me a small peck on my cheek and engulfed me in his muscular arms.

I hugged him back and allowed him to hold my hand in his , as we walked toward the café. He had asked me out almost 3 weeks ago and we have been together since . "How was doll's day ?" , he asked in a not -so- whispered-whisper.

"The basketball match was tied in P.E and yeah coach elected me as the new captain ", I told him with a hint of pride at the last statement. It was not wrong to say I was overjoyed to be in this position, I had earned through years of practice and hard work.

"Then we can say that we are the captain couple", that part got my attention in a second." Mate , what did you mean by that?", I urged him on." Mystia , I know you're not dumb. You know what I mean. I got elected as the captain too but of the soccer team".

"Congratulations", I whooped giving him a high five. He looked at me an gave me a crooked grin which instinctively made me smile back. Despite his famous player ways , he made a great boyfriend.

We reached our usual table and took our seats with the whole basketball crowd. Waiting  for Kim to come , I took to sit beside Aaron who began asking about the new kid he'd heard of. He listened patiently as I relived the events of today.

"..........and then I took him to.," my sentence was cut short when Kim entered the cafe with James hot on her heels. I gave Aaron a look which meant he's the one and he gave me an understanding nod.

"Guys, this is James," Kimberly explained to the many ever curious souls at our table. "And James this is Mystia , her boyfriend Aaron whose from the soccer team by the way...........", I zoned out of Kimberly's introductory speech when I witnessed James eyes got humongous the minute Kimberly told him about Aaron being my boyfriend.

I mean does he think I can not have a boyfriend ? Let's show him what I am made of....

Readers I am soooooo sorryyyyyyy (whines with puuppy dog eyes) , my internet was dead for a week and came alive just now. I am sorry but finally here's an update.
