I'm In Love With HIM

Chapter 24: The First Kiss

BLUE

“Blue, can you give me the highlighter? Please,” Mr. Gray requested, flipping some pages on his study guides.

Yes, my demonic boss is in my heavenly lair. I don’t know what thrust him to study here. He is sitting on my study table, holding a stapled paper with a laptop in front of him. I didn’t know that he is this studious. He even encouraged me to study and must be prepared for tomorrow’s midterm examination.

“Catch!” I shouted, throwing him the neon yellow highlighter.

“Thanks,” he replied, turning back his attention to the study guides.

“By the way, what thrust you to study here? It’s strange to me. Does your air-con broke that will make you uncomfortable to study at your room?” I asked successively, putting down my laptop on my bed.

“I just want to be with my future boyfriend,” he replied, making a cute face.

Shit! Can he be serious? This is his third time talking about that boyfriend-stuff, and I am not fond of it.

“If this is your serious ‘mode’ already,” I uttered, quoting my fingers. “Can you be more serious?” I asked, furrowing my brows.

“If you will keep on thinking that I am just playing with you to be boyfriend, you won’t feel what I want you to feel,” he replied, turning his attention on me. “I’m being nice with you all this time, but you just keep on thinking that I am mocking on you. Is that how numb you are?” he explained, making me shocked.

I was totally shocked with his words. I didn’t expect it from him. I can’t think that he can utter this rational things in front of me.

“Wait— I didn’t get. I mean, I didn’t know that—”

“That’s because you’re only thinking that I am an asshole, a badass and good-for-nothing person, who only knows how to mess everyone’s life, right?” he cut my words short. His voice started to crack. I can feel his sincerity from here.

“No—”

“You don’t have to lie Blue,” he cut me again. Can he just let me explain? “Maybe what you think is right. I’m just a good-for-nothing person,” he added, grabbing all his things from the study table.

Wait— where is he going? Is he going to leave?

“Where are you going?” I asked when he stood from his chair.

“To a place where I can’t make you piss anymore,” he replied without throwing a glance on me.

He then walked to the door and left the room without saying a goodbye on me. What’s going on with him? I did nothing, yet he act strange. I just told him to stop playing on me about that boyfriend-stuff. Wait— did he really asked me to be his boyfriend for real?

KRRNG! KRRNG!

I was snapped back from my thoughts when I heard my phone rang. I quickly reached for my phone at the bedside table, and saw my Mom’s caller ID. Wait— my Mom!

“Hello Mom!” I greeted her happily after I answered her call. It’s been a month since I saw and talked with her.

“Yes son. How are you doing?” her feminine voice uttered from the other line.

“I am totally fine Mom with a little fixable issues. I’m now studying for tomorrow’s midterm examination,” I replied, standing from the bed.

I went to the fridge to get some water to drink. I already took my dinner earlier at the cafeteria.

“You already had your dinner?” she asked.
