The Class Prince

Chapter 21 : To love or not to love?

👑👑👑

After having made up with my friends, I felt like a heavy weight in my heart had just been removed. Seulgi and Irene still weren't talking so Rose and I have been talking about how we could get them to make up. We still hadn't found a solution yet, but we promised that we would get them back together no matter. They were best friends, and they needed each other, there was no Seulgi without a Irene and no Irene without a Seulgi. That made no sense but you get what I mean.

Meanwhile, I've been walking around school with Prick in my hands for the entire day, waiting for the right moment to give it to Jisoo, but she was always either asleep or with bitch face Lisa. And before you know it, school ended.

I was walking out of school with slumped shoulders, somewhat disappointed that I wasn't able to give Prick to her.

Whatever, why should I care? It's just a dumb plant.

I looked at Prick and frowned.

"I'm sorry, Prick, I didn't mean it," I quicky apologized.

"So you talk to plants now?" I heard someone chuckle. I spun around and my eyes widened as I saw Jisoo walk towards me with her bag slung over one shoulder, running a hand through her beautiful brown curls, looking like some cliche protagonist in a rom-com movie.

A sexy cliche protagonist.

I quickly raised the plant in front of my lips as she got closer and she raised a brow.

"I'm not going to kiss you, Jen," she said, reading my mind and making my face turn bright red.

"Oh," I mumbled. She laughed.

"Don't sound so disappointed," she mused, mischief glistening in those grey hues. "Well, I wouldn't mind kissing you if you really want me-"

"Fuck off," I muttered, storming away. But for some reason, she followed me out of the school. "What are you doing?"

"I'm walking you to your bus stop," she said.

"How did you know that-"

She shrugged, "I always drive past the bus stop and see you waiting there."

"You have a car?" I asked.

"Yeah, it's that one over there," she said, nodding towards the jet black porsche in the school's parking lot, making my jaw drop wide open. She leaned towards me, his lips just a few inches away from my ear. "Want a ride?"

I quickly pulled away.

"N-N-No!" I stuttered.

"Maybe some other time," she shrugged. "So tell me, why have you been walking around school with a cactus in your hands?"

I shifted my eyes to the side. "It's... It's for you."

I looked towards her and twitched at the smug smile that grew on her face.

"Don't get me wrong, I just found it lying around on the ground and thought of you because it looked so lonely and sad," I hissed, shoving it towards her. "His name is "Prick" so you better take good care of him. Just water him every now and put it where the sun can reach him."

Jisoo took "Prick" with an expression that I couldn't quite read.

"You thought of me when you bought it?" she murmured. I flinched, getting more flustered than I should be.

"Your house looks so empty, it's depressing. So I bought you a plant to put some green in it. And it's also a thank you gift for everything you've done for me until now, so don't think that it's because I like you or anything," I hissed, my face turning bright red nonetheless. "I have to go, my bus is here."
