Gun and Off used to be best friends in high school but when Off's girlfriend start𝘀 to get jealous of their relationship, things start to get messy.
The whole school goes uproar because of their leaked kissing picture and Off starts to avoid gun be...
We are in the car for quite some time and I try not to look at Oab. I feel like he's peeking at me time and again while driving. After what seems like an eternity with the uncomfortableness that is filling the air, I try to ease the atmosphere a little bit.
"Did you enjoy the shoot today?" I ask. He looks at me and smile. Am I the only one who feels uncomfortable?
"Yup." Another smile and my frustrated ass asks him,
"Why are you smiling? See this—your smile. It makes me wonder if you're plotting to kill me or something."
"Really?" He chuckled. "Sorry but you look so cute when you're confused."
"I'm confused??? Why?" Which makes me wonder if I'm really confused.
"What happened today with Off??" His question just slams my mind. "He went to lake to search for something and didn't return and next I see you coming out with your clothes soaked wet. Not a coincidence right?"
Right. This is so obvious. My clothes are still wet—even an idiot could guess what happened.
"I was searching for my watch and I got drowned.........and......Off somehow happened to save me." Why is this so hard to say.
He stays quiet which is making me anxious again.
"Oab, what are you thinking?" This time I ask him directly.
"I just......feel bad that I couldn't save you. You must have been scared right?" His expression looks somewhat troubled as I gaze into his side profile.
"You shouldn't feel that way. I mean.....I'm the one who was reckless and nearly killed myself. I was just lucky that Off was around." I say trying to lift some worries from his face but he still looks the same so I ask again,
"Oab.....Is......something wrong? "
He suddenly stopped the car with an immediate brake making my heart almost explode thinking if he hit something with the car. I look at him; he looks expressionless and he's still not looking towards me.
"OAB!!!" I shout out loud.
He slowly turned to me and said,
"I feel jealous—I am sorry—I......I know I'm not supposed to feel this way especially when I know you and Off are not so close anymore but I can't help feel jealous every time you mention Off."
"What?" I'm speechless.
"And with what happened today.....I know he saved you and I should be thankful towards him but I feel even more jealous."
I try to say something but the words are stuck in my mouth. Jealous? With Off? I look away from him unable to bear with my own hesitation. I suddenly feel his hands on the top of my hand and I look at him in horror. I try to pull away but he holds it even more firmly.
He started to lean towards me; our face is so close I can see his lashes curving every second as our distance fills in. I'm holding my breath as if I am inside the water. His lips is moving so close to my lips that my brain cells have stopped functioning. What????????? No way. He's not going to kiss me, is he?
"Gun...." he whispered in my ears. I open my eyes unable to believe that I just closed it. I am so embarrassed I hope he didn't notice.
"When are you going to open your heart towards me??" His voice is still a whisper. He looks in to my eyes and says, "I'm tired of waiting......can you answer my heart?"
He then moved back to his seat smiling a little. There's no way he didn't notice me closing my eyes; I swear I want to get out of this car, run away from him, from the world and hide somewhere.
"And don't worry, I won't kiss you without your permission." He said softly adding more weight to my embarrassment.
We reached my dorm after nearly half and hour. The whole drive afterwards was me trying not to suffocate from what he said earlier and avoiding his face at any cost and in the process my neck slightly got sprained from looking outside the window too much. I said goodbye to him as soon as we reached and ran towards my room.
It is already dark in Josh's room so he must already be asleep. I take a quick shower and get ready for bed. I am so exhausted that I promise myself I won't overthink about anything that happened today.
I check my instagram; nothing new so far. Pete has posted some pictures so I scroll through it. He has posted another picture in his story; there's him and Sara and some other people I don't know. I look at the time it was posted 5 minutes ago. I'm shook to see that they still there. Off is not in the picture which again makes me wonder where he is. Why does it matter to you, I question myself.
I throw my phone to the other side, close the light and head to sleep.
