HIS WORST DISTRACTION ✓

• Scars that still hurt •

Just gonna stay there and watch me burn,
But its alright because I like the way it hurts,
Just gonna stay there and watch me cry,
But its alright because I love the way you lie.

Catallina's POV.
Summer break was already over and Teca went back home a day before. I made sure we had the best time and made unforgettable memories. We went to the local amusement park, fishing and did other cools... at least for him. He really loves soccer which I totally don't get the formation or their strategies. But still I watched his games just to spend time with him... and besides, at least I enjoyed the part where the players would remove their jersey showcasing drool worthy chests. Yep... I enjoyed that part.

When it came to goodbyes I could see how he struggled to cry. He said he would miss me and he would try to visit me when he graduates. Leo had a long talk with him alone and he looked positive after that. Teca also had a shrink to help him accept himself more and he looked better and better everyday. He realized we still love him the way he is. I cant help but wonder if my parents would give him a hard time.

I didn't get to take him home to avoid any confrontations with my parents especially after what happened. Am still mad at them but more hurt. Am their own blood but they treated me like trash. It hurts just thinking about it.

I also started working in the clinic just as Leo had told me and had lots of patients at my first day. Some had serious cases while others were minor but with the help of my team, It was manageable. I felt proud that I can be useful and help around.

I am still in my room since its a Saturday and am off till Monday. But what really bugs me right now is that I cant help but think of Leo. And how his slow pace was totally absurd.
My mind cant stop processing data when it comes to him and I don't know how to stop. We have been close but not as close as I want. He would kiss me time to time, but its brief like a second long or when he hugs me its quick and loose and its killing me because I want more, I need more.

Because of my pride, I cant do anything about it because I will probably come off desperate so I keep my hands to myself regardless of how frustrated I am and wait for him to make the first move.

I have to act like a lady you know.

Whenever he is not working he would create sometime for me and if he comes late he would come and wake me up just to say goodnight. Most times I convince him to stay and we would cuddle until I drift away in my sleep. He is so sweet and I just cant help but fall for him. I know he is trying to let me in by being affectionate time to time but am still not satisfied. Just because of our previous talk about letting me go and giving me freedom, it didn't mean I what him this way.
We already had a couple of heated moments before but instead of taking a step forward and make love to me already, he took steps back and I don't like it. I have needs and he clearly doesn't. I mean... what kind of sick game is he playing? Is this a mind game to see who caves in first or is it just me who feels like this?

Right on time my door is knocked and my train of thoughts stopped. Since the door was unlocked, the person came inside anyway. I really hoped it was Leo but it was only Babra. My nerves cooled down and so as my excitement.

"Hello Miss." Babra still stood at the door with her smile that always made her glow. She might be old but she clearly still had life in her.

"Hello... Its been a whole month yet I can't get you to address me as Catallina or Cat." We both laughed but still knew she wont do it. Maybe Leo's rule.

"Oh. Am sorry. Habits don't die and I cant help it... your presence is required down stairs for breakfast." She said going straight to the point. She is not the chatty kind if you didn't notice.
