Insipired (chasing sunset☀)

Chapter sixteen👑

                  <BE YOURSELF>

     I was busy in front of my vanity, knotting my uniform tie, when I heard a whistle from outside my room and I went to check, knowing just who it is.

"Are you coming down or what?" He shrugged questionly at me.

"Sure. A minute", I said and rushed downstairs, having my breakfast immediately and I zoomed off.

    I walked up to him smilingly and he roughened my hair. "Hey!! Know your limits damn it!" I scolded and he smirked at me while I eyed him, arranging my hair back.

"Wassup?" He cocked his head at me.
"Cool". I smiled and he nodded in confirmation. "How's your competition so far? Any progress?" He asked as we started walking.

"You won't believe it Jamil. I had twenty thousand votes. A lot of comments though" I sounded excited.
"Good!" He winked at me enthusiastically. "But not as good as having a sex mate" he mumbled and I skank eyed him.

"You know you'll go to hell for that right?" I told him irritatingly.

"Good thing I don't believe in hell nerd," he replied nonchalantly.

"Well it believes in you!" I rolled my eyes at him.

     He burst out in laughter. "Just kidding. I don't even know what that means."

     I rolled my eyes again and walked faster, leaving him behind.

                         * * * * * *

     During literature period, we both sat down together in class and sorted the classwork out as usual. And after class, I had nothing else doing and felt bored.

    What if I join Jamil's team again? I mean it is not bad but, how do I tell him I want in again?

"Hey Queen!" I heard my name and sighted Ali at the door.

     I raised my brows at him questionly.

"JP asked me to call you. We're going for training" he said and I smiled inwardly.

     Yes!!! am in again.

     I stood up and followed him to their class. And when I was about to go in, Mia blocked my way.

"Am sorry but you're not welcome here. At least not until I see your class exit card". She abruptly scanned me from head to toe and I shifted back a little, using my eyes to look for Jamil.

     I swallowed, avoiding eye contact with her. "I am not staying in your class. I was just going to call Jamil for training." I told her truthfully.

"I thought you weren't part of the team anymore?"

"You thought wrong maybe!" I retorted and anger flashed through her face and I bet she was about to say something nasty until Jamil crept up behind me, startling me and leaving her mouth hanging open with cruel words waiting to fall out of it.

"Hey", Jamil hit me gently with his shoulder and I looked up at him behind me. "I've been waiting for you on the field."

"I thought you were in your class," I replied and he smiled at Mia boyishly.
"Hey Mia? What's up?" And she forced a smile and shrugged, leaving us.

     I turned to Jamil and hissed at him.

"What?" He furrowed his brows at me with a shrug.

"Nothing about you. Your classmate is so annoying". I said while we were going down the stairs.
