Fall Part 1: Let Him Go

What Do You Want?

"Chanel, wake up!" that really pissed me off. I am about to end my dream, I am about to go back to Amsterdam.

"UGH, why am I doing this?" Mom don't usually woke me up. She was too busy to think of that. In fact, my classes start 8 in the morning, so I do not need to wake up early. This is hell for me.

"Chanel, it's already 6:30 in the morning." WHAT? Did I hear her right? Damn Chanel! I immediately take a shower and wear my uniform. I went downstairs and take a bite of grandma's homemade pancake instead of having meal.

"Bye grandma." I give her a hug and I went to school.

-----------------------------------------------------

And I am late. The first time I got a detention slip. I really need an alam clock. Well, I am half lucky as I need to go to the library for my punishment. I'll meet my friends there.

I was looking for a book when I someone blocked my way. Seriously?

"What are you doing here? You are not supposed to be here."

"Oh, I didn't know that going here is a crime now." he really got on my nerves.

Instead of arguing with him, I found the book that I've been searching for hours.

"I'll be borrowing all these." I told the librarian. She was shocked which is none sense.

"Really? You're going to read all that books dude?" I knew it. He went here for reason.

"What is it to you anyway?" I glared at him. This guy is really trying to pissed me off.

"You know what? You must come with me in the arcade. It's more fun than reading those fictional books that always had a happy ending."

"You know what, they are not fiction cause they happened in real life. And it doesn't have a happy ending, cause there's no such things like that." I got you there kiddo.

I get my books and went out from the library.

"So do you wanna try arcade?" God, how can I shut his mouth? Doesn't he got tired of following me?

"I told you already. I'm not into that kind of place so you better shut your mouth and leave me alone." I walk passed to him.

"Just tell me why you don't wanna go there." he is so unstoppable.

Jeez, I'm not good in lying. Why do I have to do this? Maybe to stop him. "I can't. My grandma won't allow me. And she would be angry if she founds what you're doing. So better stay away from. Can you?" I asked for the second time around.

I went home directly and straight to my room. I lied to my bed, trying to composed myself. I'm hungry and I need something to eat. I am about to go to the kitchen when I noticed that grandma was not here. I decided to go outside and to my surprise. What is he doing here?

"Good afternoon ma'am. I am James Anderson, 17 and I study in McGill University. I don't have any records in NBI and I have good intentions." what is he doing. My sight turned to grandma and I can see that she was shocked.

"And what brought you here?"

"I'm here to ask permission if I can make friend with Chanel and brought her to the arcade." what did he just say?

"Well it is fin-"

"Hey Grandma." I cut their conversation.

"Oh you're friend James is here. I think you must talk to him. She went inside but before that, "You have a lot of explaining to do Chanel." I am dead.

I drag James, "What the hell are you doing here? How do you even get in here? And why are you here?" I asked him, soundinng pissed.

"First, I am to ask permission to your grandma if I can be your friend, finding out that it was okay for her, you lied to me. Second, I followed you from school, not my fault you were too dense to sense that someone is following you. Lastly, is that how you greet your friend? You are rude dude." he can really manipulate my temper.

"I did not lie to you. I told you to stay away from me, are you that stupid that you did not get my point?" I looked at him disgustingly.

"Well call me stupid but you don't know me Lancaster. I don't easily give up on the things I want." he looked back like he was trying something to happen.

"That's the point, I do not know you. You just give me the reason why I must stay away from you."

"That is why we need closure, we need to know each other and first, we must become friends." we both have a point and this is going to nothing.

"There are lot of people in this place James, so why choose me in the first place? You don't even know me."

"Yeah, there's a million but I saw you, and I chose you." is he serious

"And why?" it is the first time that I've talked to someone.

"Not you're business anymore dude." why is he calling me dude?

"Whatever. You know what? I'm done with this. I don't want you to be my friend and that's final so you better shut your mouth cause I don't wanna play games. I was about to walk away when

"Wait, let's make a bet." What?

"I told you, I don't pla-"

"Well, it's not a game, it is a bet. If you win, I'll stay away from you and I will never bother you anymore. But, if you lose, you will do anything that I want." he said sarcastically.

"Okay, if this is the only way to stop you. Spoil it." I was serious.

"If you get in class in time tomorrow, you win. But, if you are late, you lose." was he serious? Easy.

"Is that all?" I asked him telling him that I will win the bet.

"Well, pretttly much Lancaster." he gave me a smile and I just give him a death glare. If only eyes can kill, he's already dead right now.

"What do you really want Anderson?" I need to clear anything.

"I want you. And second thing that you do not know, what I want is what I get. So, sleep well dude." he gave a salute and went to his car and just a matter of seconds, he was gone.

What are you into Chanel?
