Chapter 44 Leave Me Alone

It's been days since that incident. Nicolas never contacted me once. What hurts me the most is when I see him smiling. He looked so happy and never gave me a chance to speak to him. What surprised me the most was when he was sitting with the popular cheerleader, Savannah Elfman.
Like seriously?! That guy who once said he had never had any experience with girls is flirting with the prettiest girl in our school. I don't know why I am furious, but I just can't believe this annoying bastard! How dare he ignore me without explaining anything? Or even let me explain everything? How childish.
When we met in the hallway, he ignored me. not even making eye contact. He's keeping his distance from me. He's leaving now.. well, if he's acting that way, then be it. I won't care about that annoying guy anymore.
I seriously hate him now. Just look at him. How annoying could he be? Flirting like there's no tomorrow? "Gosh, I should've smacked his head back then." Bella sighs in disbelief. We were sitting in the cafeteria with Bradley. Currently, Bella's boyfriend.. I don't know when they got together, but at least she's happy, so I guess that's okay.
"But, don't you think it's just weird how absurdly his attitude changes?" Bradley raised an eyebrow. He knows about my "crush" on Nicolas since Bella told him about it. "I guess he really does hate me now." I sighs frustratedly. Why did I meet him today? Ugh, he's seriously ruining my mood.
"Nah. I think he was born an asshole. should at least be more considerate, you know." Bella and her boyfriend kept talking about Nicolas' current behaviour. It seems really weird, but I guess there's no point anymore.
"I probably should go home... I don't feel like going to class." I sigh. Bella and Bradley just look at me disapprovingly. "Come on, Rose, forget about that bastard! Let's go have some fun after school, kay? Let's go together! Let's go to the arcade? The three of us will be enough." Bella exclaimed but I don't really think it's going to make me feel better.
"Nah, I don't think I'll feel better, I'll just be a third wheel if I go with you guys." I said truthfully. I don't want to ruin their date. "How about we invite Martin then? We could just hang out together. Plus he seems... like a nice guy." Bradley smirked. It seems like he knows something...
"Ugh, I dunno." When I said that the devil himself greeted us,
"I heard my name being mentioned. Did you miss me already, babygirl?" Caleb winked as he took a seat next to me. He's being weird lately. It's kinda Comforting actually. "Ugh, you're so annoying." Well, he is, but still good enough to be ignored....
Well, I notice someone staring at us or, to be specific, me. Well, guess what that annoying guy is glaring at me? What is your problem, dude? I should be the one glaring at you. I decided to ignore him. Caleb was surprisingly... Clingy today.. and somehow cute.. I don't know what's wrong with me, but he keeps making me smile, so I guess being with him is a good thing.
Since he was once my first love, it was all in the past, I promise! But I don't know why Caleb doesn't seem to mind being this close to me...
The bell rang and we parted ways to go to our own classes. Literature. I used to like this class so much, but I don't know if Since Miss J is no longer teaching us, It seems boring now... The substitute teacher is okay ... He just lacks humor.
I wanted to sit with Caleb since I didn't really want to be near Nicolas. I suppose he'd probably not want to be near me either, I suppose, but luck is seriously not on my side.
The only seat available was next to him. I was stupid to come late to class. I had no choice but to sit next to him. But Caleb stopped me. saying that I should switch seats with him. Everyone is staring at us now... It's weird... But I really don't want to sit next to him, so I switch seats with Caleb.
He ended up sitting with Nicolas, and to make it worse, they even got into a group together. Just what is wrong with today? I don't really know. The class went by pretty quickly. I wouldn't have to deal with him after this since we have different classes. Kind of a relief and disappointed.. but it's for the best I guess.
Caleb went to his club, and he never forgot to kiss my cheek before he left. He really is a flirt. I wonder what his girlfriend will feel like.
"I wonder why today's so f*cking annoying." Nicolas scoffed as he walked past me. He really is annoying. If I never had any feelings for him, I would hate him by now. "I wonder why someone is so irritating and seriously ruining my mood today. just so great!" I rolled my eyes and slammed my locker before going to the bathroom.
I want to hate him, but I can't. Why am I so weak I want to cry?
"I hear you and Nicolas are dating now. Congrats, Savy. I never expected him to dump that b*tch Rose for you. Oh my, have you seen how hideous she has become lately?" I heard girls talking and laughing.
Wow, seriously? I'm not in the mood right now. And you're calling me a b*tch?! Well, excuse you, girl? He's my man! Ughhh
I stayed silent and listened to their conversation. I need to stay calm. I don't want to cause trouble for useless matters like this.
"Well... of course! Nick says that he never really liked her anyway; he's just using her to be close to me. Isn't he the sweetest?" Savannah says, chuckling.
You rotten!! She even called him Nick?! Ugh, I seriously can't stand this girl anymore.
"Oh and by the way, that boy sure knows how to kiss... And he's enormous. So big that I still can't forget about that night. He's too good to be true." she added, and the girls laughed.
I was dumbfounded. That freakin' bastard?! He did it with her? Already? I was about to scream at their faces, but they're already gone. Why am I crying? Please stop... Why am I hurting myself? I can't handle this anymore.
I wanted to get away from here. My tears are already falling and to make it worse, I even bumped into the devil himself.
"Hey... What's wrong? Why are you crying?" He cupped my cheeks and I was staring at him. It hurts. I don't want to see him. Why are you looking so worried now? Stop acting already, you annoying jerk!
"Go away." I pushed him away and walked to the infirmary. I don't feel so good. And I don't want anyone to see me in this state...
I'm crying because of a guy. Huh
Thank goodness the nurse let me in without asking many questions. She left me in the infirmary and told me to rest. I want to punch him so badly. Why did he say all those words to Savannah? Is it true that he's just taking advantage of me? So, after all this time... has he been lying?
All about having no experience and all?
Wow
Just wow.

    I’m not a fan of this work at first that’s why I’ve been putting off starting it so long but it gets a lot better as it goes, I can assure you that! And now, this book has become one of my favourite. I really enjoy reading and I highly recommend this. I have no complaints. “Youth” love sure do brings back a lot of memories 😆 and I really love the setting, it’s cute and wholesome, I have butterflies in my stomach the whole time. Still, I wish there’s more of this book...
