How could I have done that, so he was accusing the girl I really like, calling me names, mentioning my bad past, and ......., besides he's my best friend and he has been my friend from 7th grade. I may have blown up in his face. Now I feel bad as usual. I feel so angry, why did he have to go and make up all of these things. Is he jealous? Well I don't spend as much time with him than her. But that doesn't give him the right. I am so angry I don't want to talk to him or her, they are just going to make me extra sad or mad enough to get in a fight. No I am not going back to those days. I just can't see them.
John's POV
I know that there was something off with her from the first day I saw her. On the other hand, I hope I am wrong
and I'm just being overprotective but if she hurts him, I guess I will just have to find out.
Sarah's POV
Every since our major examinations coming up, I have been very busy with my assistant position, the exams, the preparations and studying to keep me an A student. Etc. But something's been bothering. Joshua and I haven't been talking to each other for a while now and it's killing me. He ignores me, mostly by either giving me a sad and vulnerable face or an angry look before just walking away. Knowing him well enough to know there is definitely wrong and I was praying when I realized all of this, that I was not discovered. I also realized he was being extra angry and mean, he is treating people harshly, bullying the other students, messing with the teachers (which I find quite amusing), getting bad grades, not being at class. I'm definitely sure somethings wrong, now I believe his profile, but why wasn't he like that around me? He's ignoring John too and hanging out with those other guys in full black at the back of the classes giving trouble and making rude remarks, you know when they decide to show up. All these thoughts haunted me and exams were closer than ever so I decided to talk to John for we both are getting ignored.
" hey" I say awkwardly when walking into English while the other early students are deep in their books.
" hey" John says even more awkwardly as he lifts his head from his notebook.
" yeah. We have to talk. Why is Joshua ignoring both of us? Why is he being mean? Why ......"
" ok. I get it you have a lot of questions about his demeanor lately but there is only one answer." He cuts me off by saying sadly. " we got in a fight and he's back to his hurt, angry self that hates everyone especially me , ditches class and bullies people."
" ok I get why he's ignoring you but why is he ignoring me?" I practically whine.
" It was about you?, Let's not talk about it"
" what but .......?"
I am cut off once more by our professor walking, greeting the class and commencing the class. Since we were piled with preparation work and much more assignments, I didn't get to talk to John again and judging by his sudden shy, solemn mood I don't think he wants to talk about it at all. After being dismissed, I search for Joshua to get more details on their fight.I know it wasn't physical because John was completely scarless and injure free and Joshua is pretty robust to leave him so unharmed. Plus there best friends, best friends fight all the time and make up hopefully. I discard the thoughts of
the friends fighting whether physical or verbal when I spot Joshua saying by to his 'so called' friends in the car park. I rush to him when his posse is gone.
" hey" I say as if all is right with the world.
He tenses up a bit and then try's the walk past me but I stand my ground.
" why have you been ignoring me? Did I do something wrong?" He seems to relax a bit when he notices my smug expression.
" I've just been busy" I know he lies by the way he looking past my eyes.
" That's not true, I know something is wrong." I call him out.
"I'm sorry. I had a quarrel with John and we aren't friends anymore and I am just so angry and I don't want to do anything I am going to regret." I am shocked by his sudden apology. I embrace him sweetly and I know he needed a hug and strangely I needed it as well.
" Let's forget about that for now, I won't allow a silly fight to come across you and your behavior and your grades...."
He cuts me off by places his lips against mine suddenly. My lips move in sync with his as I wrap my arms around his neck as he he wraps his arms around my waist pulling me even closer to him, deepening the kiss. For that moment I forgot about my mission, my stress, everything bad. All I thought about was him, his gorgeous eyes, his laugh, how crinkles up his face when he feels awkward. I felt like I was in love.
He parts from our kiss slowly as I try to wake up from the trance I was in.
" sorry. I just missed you and ...."
" you don't need to explain, come on let's study we aren't going to get As by showing up" I say trying to lighten up the mood and grabbing his hand and pulling him towards the green area. We sat and studied together for almost an entire 4 hours. He wrapped his arm around my waist and it gave me butterflies just to feel his skin against mine. I was just glad that he was back to his nice, happy, smart self again.
" um I want to ask you something." He says as we are walking out of the campus.
" sure." Him being shy is weird and so I feel tension trying to choke me as we walk.
" would you like to go on a trip with me and my uncle to Italy, this Christmas? It's the least I could do for ignoring you? But if you aren't interested?"
" since when were you the nervous one. Of coarse I would go with you." I smile while saying it. Plus I need a way to Italy ,to catch his uncle and his men in the act of serious theft,and this is my golden opportunity.
He seems relieved and full of glee. "Good luck on your tests tomorrow."
I've never seemed so happy before and he can't seem to stop smiling. " thanks. I wish you luck and success tomorrow as well." I say as we both laugh at my choice of words and we departed from there.
