When Neptune meets Earth

XXII

I was the first one in my English class today by chance and now I had nothing to do but just sit and look at everyone around.

It was the third class and I was already feeling so bored.

I looked around in the class to see a few of the students were also there now.

Suddenly, I started feeling suffocated and way too uncomfortable and just wanted to get out of there.

So, without thinking for any second long, I just picked my backpack and rushed and out of the class, in the corridor where only few students were left now, as they made there way towards their classes.

I inhaled deeply and continued walking through the corridors.

I wanted to relax my mind.

That mind which had been playing Faith's smile, face, lips and each and every moment spent with her.

I don't know what the hell was happening. Why was my mind being such an idiot? Why was my mind betraying me?

I walked through the corridors towards the parking. Desperate to go outside of this place we called school.

I was in such a hurry that I didn't see someone coming from the same way and smashed with them.

The things from that person's hand fell.

I inhaled deeply to control my anger and was about to say sorry to that person but when I looked up at that person, all that came out of my mouth was,' You? What are you doing here, right now?'

While she just rolled her eyes and started picking up her things.

I rolled my eyes too while helping her pick her things and said as we both stand up again after picking the things,' You know what, Red furs? It doesn't hurt you to be nice to me for once.'

She smirked at me and said,' Really? Why should I when I want the best for you?'

' The best for me?,' I said with a frown.

She rolled her eyes again and said,' Yes, the best for you. I want you to use your mind for once and to know that I bumped into you because of I was in a hurry to get to my class, for which I am ready late. Thanks to you.'

I frowned as deep as I could and said,' Why do you always have to be like that with me?'

Faith looked at me and for an instant, she just kept looking, a feeling of sadness and guilt in her eyes but it went away quickly as she said while rolling her eyes,' Because, well...just because,' she shrugs.

' Okay then, I'll go. Bye. See you later,' I said to her and start going but inside somewhere, I wanted her to react. To stop me, and my prayers got answered just a second later.

She turned around at me and said while raised her eyebrows,' Where are you off too?'

I smirked at her and said with a shrug,' Away from this place.'

She rolled her eyes at me and threw her towards me while saying,' Okay then, come on. Let's do it together.'

My eyes widened as I said,' Who are you? Where is my Faith? What have you done to her.'

' Come on, let's go now. Drama King,' she said while laughing and shaking her head at me.

While I just stood there, realising something so quickly. And, my dear friends, please note my sarcasm there.

I didn't realise it. I didn't realise that I called her my Faith.

It felt so nice to call her mine.

I just want to- wait, no!

I don't want to anything. It was wrong of me to call her mine but still...I felt, somewhere deep inside my soul, a craving.

A craving to call Faith Hall, mine.
