We were in the school Cafe. It was absolutely empty except for the staff. Ash bought me a soda and steered me to the nearest bench and table.
Lunch break for our junior year was about to start in like 25 minutes. So I hoped I could stay here till then and then make a run for it before Vi and D appeared.
I think Ash was afraid I would go in shock again cause he kept looking at me from the corner of his eyes with a funny expression, but he did not say a thing. Couldn't blame him. He had tried to make conversation but I had stubbornly kept my mouth shut. I was not going to tell this complete stranger the story of my life.
It was surprising that after seeing what he saw he had not made a dash for it.
I mean if any other boy saw a girl hyperventilating like that he would dash. And I was saying this with experience. Before we left Florida I used to get these attacks quite a lot and if any boy was within my 100 cm radius, he would make a dash for it.
But well obviously Ash wasn't interested in me. He probably just wanted to make sure that I was not going to die when he was the last person to see me.Okay so maybe my thoughts had taken a dark turn.
"Are you really not going to say a word?" he asked.
"You know I at least deserve an explanation." he did actually. But was that enough to open my mouth? NO.
"I mean I even bought you a soda, this is practically a date."
That made me wanna laugh so seeing the corners of my mouth tug he smirked.
"Come on say whatever you are thinking." he urged.
"You wish," I stated.
He laughed out loud. Wow, this was such a nice sound.
"Ooo that hurt Rose."
"You know my name??" I blurted out without thinking.
"Of course I know your name. The whole school does I think."
"But kitty, however, suits you. So I am gonna stick with that."
I did not comment on that.
"Rose what happened out there?" suddenly he was serious.
"Nothing," I said way too quickly for him to believe me. Though even with top-notch acting qualities (which I did not possess) it would have been hard convincing someone of something like that.
"You know you are not as scary as my friends make you sound," I said again without thinking. Changing the subject really abruptly. What the fuck was wrong with me.
"And what friends are we talking about here." He asked still smirking.
Lost in his eyes I blurted the truth again, "Vi and Andrew."
He laughed.
"So Andrew is already a friend huh." I don't think that was a question.
"I think I should head home," I said suddenly seeing the time. I was changing the tones of this conversation really quick.
"You can't."
"And why the hell not?" I asked again my anger coming to me without any warning.
The hell with these mood swings.
Maybe my pe..."Cause we have detention together and I think you have those swimming trials today right?"
He was right about the detention and damn it he was also correct about the trials.
"How do you know about the trials?" I asked suspiciously.
"let's just say that Zoe hasn't made it a secret that she will be this year's captain again. There will be a party at her home after this to celebrate her victory."
"Wow. That's..." I was really at loss of words. What could i say. I was hearing really nice things about this Zoe girl. (note the sarcasm here).
"...Obnoxious." he finished my sentence smirking.
After that I just drank my soda lost in my thoughts, he kept staring at me and I ignored his eyes, looking anywhere but the eyes.
I was staring at the floor, Cafe had started to fill, when suddenly a boy came from behind me and kissed me on the cheek.
Oh it was the same boy who had kissed Diya.God he is such a fucking creep. I was up and out of my seat before you could blink and I was glaring at him.
But uh huh Ash was right in front of me completely blocking my view of the creep. I could only see his back and I was pretty sure I was completely hidden behind Ash.
I don't think the creep had seen Ash sitting with me. This table was quite near the corner wall.
The whole Cafe had gone silent at some sort of warning and everyone was looking at us.
I peeked from behind Ash's shoulder to look at his face.
In that moment I knew why my friends were overreacting. Na uh they weren't overreacting. They were absolutely right.
Cause oh boy! Ash was glaring at the creep. The only thought in my head was 'if looks could kill.'
The creep was cowering and suddenly Diya and Andrew were by our side.
Andrew kept a hand on Ash's shoulder and very slowly moved him a step aside. I think Ash had realized that he was about to loose control cause his jaw and fist was clenched and his eyes were shut. The creep eased up a little seeing Ash step aside but his fear was renewed when Ash's place was taken by Diya.Oh it was funny how menacing Diya looked in front of this boy. He was on my eye level I could easily look down at him. Giving him the best glare I could though there was not much to be done on my side when an angry Diya and an angry Ash were glaring at you.
"You don't learn, do you?" Diya said and with that a punch connected with the creep's jaw.
Hey good people. We have passed 160 views. Yayyyyyy.
And ughh I had to go to the doctor's they wanted a blood test, I have no problems with needles but the idiot inserted the needle in the wrong place and they had to instantly remove it and then voila I was asked if they could puncher my other arm (super big eye roll) like seriously it had hurt like hell the first time and they wanted to try again. But anyways that nurse got it right this time and now they have a holy vile of my blood, hahaha kidding.
Anyways I had to skip coaching again and now I am behind my homework and classwork just what I needed (note the heavy sarcasm).
Alright I will stop my ranting.
