Chapter 5


A day later...

I'm standing in front of the school entrance now.

Yep,

I'm back.

My eyes are covered in eye bags, I didn't get enough sleep. I only slept for like 1-2 hours and that's it.

Walking like a zombie, a horde of girls started running to the exit, dragging me with them.

"What's going on? Ah! Help!" I pleaded many of them screamed when they saw a jet black Nissan car. Are they a fan of cars? Well, I am not.

"Excuse me! I am not a fan of cars! Ow! Beep beep! Someone passing b- Aah!" I was suddenly pulled up from the air and started pulling me away from the crowd.

After escaping from the crowd, we both catch our breath first then I look at the person who helped me.

It was Anthony.

"Thank you for you know, helping... Me" I said it was weird for me to say 'thank you' to someone so genuinely because I always gave them a sarcastic one.

"No problem" He pats my head and I can feel the heat rising from my cheeks.

"Y-yea! B-but what are they so crazy about?" I stuttered a bit. Everyone stuttered when they talk to the person they like right? Right?

"Thought you'll notice it by now" He sighed and pointed at the crowd, "See that guy with the sunglasses?" I nodded, "That's what they're going crazy about"

"Who's that?" Anthony facepalmed, "It's the guy who got us in trouble! Alexander the assh*le!" He yelled a bit to make sure Alexander can hear him.

I began to meet Alexander's eyes... And the girls' deadly glare, as I sweat dropped.

I'm— I mean we — are doomed.

"Umm, I think you said it too loud... " I back away a bit, he suddenly realized that there are also girls who are head over heels for Alexander.

"Oh, sh*t, I forgot about that, run!" He grabbed me by the hand and we made a run for it as we're being chased the girls.

Ba-dum

What's that?

Ba-dum

My chest starts to pound, is it because if Anthony holding my hand?

Ba-dum
Ba-dum
BA-DUM
BA-DUM
BA-DUM

Nope, I think its because we're both running from the horde of angry girls.

Grr...

Curse you, Anthony.

A few runs later...

We lost them.

We hid inside an unknown room, that is empty, as we catch our breath.

"Hah... Hah... That was tiring" Anthony pants, I glared at him sending a message saying 'You put me into this mess!' Kind of thing.

He puts his hands up in surrender, "Ok! It's my fault to put you in this mess! I'm sorry!" He said in a high voice, and I laugh, not like a sarcastic or blank type of laugh.

It's a happy laugh.

I snort, then I quickly cover my mouth and started blush,"I-I'm sorry, I-I didn't mean to-"

"I think that's a cute laugh you have..." He cuts me off as he looks at me with those cute and soft eyes.

Oh, heavens... Please let me rest

Riiiiiing...

"I guess we're staying here for the whole lesson..." He sighed in disappointment.

"Huh? Why?" I tilted my head, why are we going to stay since the coast is already clear?

"A hallway monitor will catch us if we get out of this room..." He looks at the window of the door and turns back to me, "Aaaand he is on the left side of this door... F*ck, we don't even have a..." He curses

"I can wait... Plus the lesson is about 1 hour and 30 minutes!" I said in a 'duh' tone actually...

"Ahem, you didn't hear me: 'No hall pass'" He annoyingly smirks at me, "Oooooooooooooohhhh... Hahahaha, I knew that!" I punched him on the shoulder

"Ow! You don't have to punch that hard" He rubs his shoulder

"Oh! Ah! Sorry, it's my first time to talk to a person like this... So normal" He looks at me in surprise, "Really?" He asks

"Y-yeah..." I nervously rub my neck and waiting for him to laugh at me but...

I heard nothing...

I look at him and he was speechless.

"H-hey, are you- ah!" I was cut off by him suddenly hold my shoulders and look at me with his soft eyes.

"Then, let's be friends!" He said happily, are my ears deceiving me?

"I-I'm sorry?" I said I want him to repeat it for the second time because it looks like I might hear something wrong.

"Let's be friends!" He repeats it the second time, my ears are not deceiving me!

"F-friends?" I repeat what he said, the memories flood into my mind but then Anthony started to pat my head

"Yes, I'll spell it for you, F-R-I-"

"I know the spelling geez!" I yelled at him a bit then he started laughing.

"So, what do you say?" He smiled as he reaches out his hand at me.

Friends?

Do I really want to be friends with him?

'I don't want to be your friend anymore!'

'Your mother is a wh*re and your father is an alcoholic, maybe you'll be like them in the future!'

'SL*T!'

'WH*RE!'

'B*TCH!'

"Mia, leave the past behind, look at what's ahead of you, the future, prove them wrong" He breaks my thought as he twirls my hair.

"Anthony, I will be your friend..." I accept his offer and hug him as he hugs me back.

The hug gave me the feeling of a sense of belonging.

Love

Protection

I'm happy to have a new friend like him.

Hopefully, he won't turn like them.
