Those Pretty Brown Eyes

Chapter 8

The Feelings

It is just so good to be with Edward, although he was sick but he is an amazing person. Even my mom likes him a lot and it is because of her that he stayed one more day here with me and now is healthy as ever. He also taught me how to play a flute. I know I like him but it's not that, there's something stronger than this because whenever I look into his eyes I just feel so calm, peaceful and happy.
And we were ready to go to the school. Just then my mom called and I told him to sit in the car and wait for me.

"Yes mom what is it?"
"Nothing much, I just wanted to say that keep this smile on yourself, you look good when you are smiling."
I started to think why mom was saying these things to me.
"Mom are you alright?"
"Remember you never had any friends because you ended up fighting with them and he is the first person you ever brought to our house. Just don't do the same to him. Edward is a very generous person and promise me you won't fight with him."
"Okay mom, now can I go." why would I ever fight with Edward, my mom sometimes over thinks everything but I can't deny the fact that I had feelings for him, in fact strong feelings. I then gave my mom an assuring look and left for the school with Edward.

Edward held my arm when we were entering the school. I wondered doesn't he have that stick but I didn't asked him as I liked it this way. Though No one had the courage to say this to me at my face but there were rumors that I was dating Edward to which I didn't give a damn because I simply don't care what others think.
At the lockers I saw Jake coming this way.
"Hey Noah, Hi Edward sup?"
"Hi Jake" I saw Edward didn't responded maybe because he didn't knew him.
"Oh I forgot Michael was looking for you over there." Why is that dickhead looking for me. I didn't wanted to but still I left.

*Jake's Pov*

I thought maybe he hasn't heard me or something so I again tried to talk to him.
"Hey Edward, I'm Jake your partner for the assignment." then he stopped searching his locker and looked weirdly,"Which assignment exactly?"
"The Maths one. and don't worry Noah is paired with Michael."
"What do you mean by that. Why would I worry?" he was right actually why did I said this to him. I saw him closing his locker and moving towards class. Though he doesn't speaks much but I would love to date him.
"You coming?" Edward suddenly said this and I was amazed," Yeah after you." only to realize that he couldn't see so I took him to the class.

In the class everyone was sitting with their partners. I could see some faces which were not happy, and I was happy what was happening to Michael, I don't know what the reason is but Noah wasn't in a good mood and that's even worse for Michael because he has to complete the whole assignment with him.

*Lina's Pov*

I don't know how much could I control myself because the person I try to avoid every time, I am now grouped with her. It's not that I hate Mary, it's exactly the opposite and I don't want that anyone should know about this that... that I love Mary since Middle school. People say that come out of the closet and then you can live the world to your fullest. Huh bullshit I have seen what happens to people like us that what happens to Max daily and how Michael is insulted, although he didn't slept with Max on purpose. Max intentionally drugged him and made him do what he wanted.

Not everyone knows this. I felt so bad for Michael but at the same time I wanted this to happen to Jenny as she deserves it for the biatch she is. And also one of the reasons I don't have the courage is my super religious and superstitious family. They would never tolerate if their own daughter say this this that she likes girls and I know that so it's useless to even try to talk to them about this. I finally stopped thinking when I saw Mary coming.

Oh ! Only God knows how hard I try to keep my composure in front of her but then I noticed the watch and it was already past time. Where is Mr. Spence, as always busy in eating something.
"Hey morning."
"Morning."
"Did you prepared something I mean you know."
"No need to rush we have a couple of weeks so relax and chill."
As I continued to speak I saw that Mary is watching towards Edward and her expression is becoming somewhat 75 parts of sadness with 25 parts mixed with anger. Oh trust me I am an expert in reading people's expressions. So just to confirm I asked her,
"Hey what are you looking there?"
"Nothing its just I feel so.... I don't know but just look there how Jake is flirting with Edward."
"Yeah so why does that concerns you."
"It's not that I have something against Jake but you know it's not right you know what I mean." I didn't thought that Mary would be homophobic and this disgusted me enough to get rude at her.
"How could you be so narrow minded, it's none of your fucking business so you can better shove that homophobia up in your virgin twat."
"Huh What NO! It's not that. I am not homophobic."
"Then what is it?"
"I.... I kinda umm have a crush on Edward." Oh no why is this happening to me, if only I had the courage to display her the feelings I possess but of course this was going to happen one day as you can't stop people from developing feelings for someone, neither can you force someone to love you. But inside I was feeling devastated like a huge wave has hit just drowned my feelings and I couldn't do nothing to avert these feelings.
