HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?!

Chp 14

"You're a mystery to me,
Yet so familiar.
Lika a song I've never heard before
and
A tune I've known my entire life."

MATTHEW'S POV

"I don't come to school for a couple of days and the next thing I know, new members are sitting at our table." I spoke up when I saw precious and her friends sitting at our table

For some reason I wasn't surprised. I knew this was bound to happen one or the other day because Aiden and Ryder were all buddy-buddy with the girls and Aiden was a goner for Natalia. But that does not mean I have to talk to them,right?

I know calling them to our table was Aiden's and Ryder's doing because the girls have too much self respect especially precious so there's no way they would just turn up and sit at our table out of the blue.

The only reason I'm going to tolerate Kelly at our table is because Aid and Ry are friends with them and Aiden gets to sit with Natalia. I am doing it just for my friends.

Yeah, keep telling yourself that. My conscience spoke.

I nod at the girls as a greeting and ignored Kelly. I get my food, take a seat and busy myself in my phone.

Unfortunately the only seat that was empty was opposite to precious. Ughh! 

I was busy minding my own business when suddenly Who says by Selena Gomez starts playing. It's Kelly's phone ringing. Of course it's precious. Queue an eye roll please.

"Who says
Who says you're not perfect
Who says you're not worth it
Who says you're the only one that's hurting
Trust me
That's the price of beauty
Who says you're not pretty
Who says you're not beautiful
Who says" Kelly sings along with the music

She seems so lost in the song that she forgot the song was her ringtone and that someone was trying to call her.

"Dude, it's your damn ringtone. Someone's calling you, pick up the fucking phone." Johanna says, voicing my thoughts while everybody at table just laughs

"Shite! I forgot." Kelly says and I just look at her, amused

All the happiness drains from her face the moment she looks at the call ID. She looks, disappointed?

The others continue with their talks to give Kelly privacy with her call but I can't stop my curious self from eavesdropping.

"Hey baby." she said in a low tone

Baby?

"I am trying to clear out my schedule to come as soon as possible honey." she continued

Honey, seriously?

"I would never break a promise made to you sweetie."

Sweetie?

"I am extremely excited to see you too but I don't know what they would think about it, you know since I'm supposed to be concentrating on studies." she said in a sad tone

"I would do anything for you baby. See ya soon." she said and then laughed after a few seconds probably at something the other person said and now her face glowed, she was happy

"Love you." she said and then disconnected the call

Who the fuck was this baby? Was it her boyfriend from back in Florida? Is that why she is not head over heels for me, because she is in love with someone else? Must be because as far as I know, girls swoon at a mere sight of me.

But this one is different. My conscience spoke again.

I wanted to ask her about who she was talking to but she would just snap at me. Also, I didn't want her to know that I was listening to her conversation.

Why on earth do you even want to know who she was talking to? I thought to myself.

"Who was it?" Grace who was sitting beside Kelly whispered to her

"Just someone back in Florida." she whispered back while faking a smile

Wait, she said she is going soon? Is she going to go just for a weekend or for longer?

Matt, you don't have to think about her. I told myself.

************************************

Who was the person who called Kelly?

Could she possibly be having a boyfriend?

Why is Matt so affected with Kelly calling sweet names to someone?
