Locked Feelings

Chapter 2 : Community centre

   Update : Hi,I'll be making new chapters as much as I can.I've only watched Teenage Bounty Hunters in less than a week,and I'm obsessed.

   Let me know if you have any ideas that would be great for the plot as I'm open to new suggestions.

   Anyways,I hope you enjoy.

   Sterling's POV

April

   What are the chances of meeting her in a community centre doing community work? It's supposed to be zero.I can't believe this.It's like God wanted me to feel the pain again.

     I haven't seen her since graduation which is upsetting because it's only months ago.

       I can't let her see me here.Except why on earth is she here? She's like the least expected person to be here.

      I went up to the lady and signed my name,and took a seat in the hall.It wasn't really classy but still well furnished and in a good state.

      April still hasn't seen me yet which I'm thankful of cause I don't think making eye contact with her would make me feel any better.

   Brian walks in,and looks around for a place to sit.He sat down next to April and surprisingly,both of them started talking like they were good friends.

      I don't get it...

      "Welcome,fellow adults.You're here only because you made quite the trouble,didn't ya?" This Southern male man came up to the center of the stage.The crowd didn't seem to be amused so he continued.

      "I'm Jack and I handle pretty much everything around here."
  
    "Some of y'all will be staying here for awhile and we've got lots to do.First on the agenda,we will be having a fundraiser next week and I need this place to be spotless." He continued talking except my eyes were glued to April.

     Brian suddenly puts his hands around her,making me uncomfortable.I'm really confused right now and jealous?

     No,I'm not jealous.Stop it,Sterl.Look away.

     I turned my attention back to Jack,trying to remain calm? I can't do this.

       "You'll be split up into groups and paired off together to do your tasks.This is also a good idea to reflect on your actions and if you must,share it with your new partners.They might even help you to deal with your issues."

        Partners? Seriously? I mean as long as its not Brian,I'd be cool.Every time I look at his face,all I want to do is punch him.

      If only he was our skip,Blair and I would've kick his ass.

"Sterling and April." The man announced,bringing me back from my weird imagination of kicking Brian's ass.

          Seriously? I can't believe this.

    Now,April was surveying the room intently,trying to find me.I hide behind the person in front of me the second I caught her eyes locked with mine.

       No,no.She couldn't have seen me,I mean there's probably like another Sterling in this town,right.

          "Well,I think surprisingly you are the only Sterling in this town." The guy who I was cowering behind turned and said.

         I must've said it out loud,didn't I?

        "Hiding from an ex?" He continued and I slowly move my head up to see if she's looking and she was.
