Chapter 37
I felt the air leave my lungs as his eyes stared directly. Shifting in my sit uncomfortably I reverted my eyes to stare at the teacher who was scowling at the interruption. Niall who must’ve seen our exchange chuckled in amusement.
I bit my lip when I saw Asher walking towards us in angry strides. As soon as he was near he dropped his bag down on Niall’s desk.
” you’re in my seat” he seethed. Gaining the attention of everyone including me
“Didn’t know this chair had an owner!” Niall said sarcastically. It seemed to aggregate Asher more as he fist his hands.
“Get the f*ck off my chair” Asher all but growled out. The veins in his neck ready to pop out. When I felt that he was taking things too far I decided to step in.
“Asher please just get another seat, you’re being a little dramatic.” I whispered to him. I must have been a little bit louder since I heard gasp around. Clearly everyone was surprised at my response to Asher. Not sparing me a glance he took his bag and roughly walked away and sat next to Shelly who was smiling in satisfaction.
“What crawled his a$$ and died?” Niall grumbled making my focus avert on him. His hands were folded as he glared at nothing in particular.
“His just having a bad day I guess” I shrugged trying to seem nonchalant. I guess it didn’t work because Niall turned towards me with a raised eyebrow. He searched my eyes before smirking.
“Sounds like you know him” he teased
” uhh well we were friends” I whispered for his ears only. Yeah friends don’t make love to each other lily. My conscious reminded me
“Looks like you guys were more than friends” Niall snorted out before giving the teacher his full attention. The statement made me blush and I tried discreetly to look back at Asher.
I was met with the glaring eyes of Asher who stared angry at Niall and I. Noticing my stares Shelly touched Asher’s arm and seductively trace his hands. Seeing her do this while smirking at me made my blood boil and I wanted nothing more than to rip her hair out. Asher didn’t remove her hands which made me more furious. Gosh jealousy doesn’t feel good.
Taking my eyes away from them I focused on the teacher who was already explaining something I didn’t know. The remaining of the class I tried to focus on the teacher but that was proving difficult since I could hear Shelly’s flirty giggles. My skin prickled as I tried hard to not turn around to see what they were doing.
Her giggles made me think of bad scenarios where Asher is flirting back and then they would get back together and have a happy family….. Stop lily, you’re making things worse for yourself! My subconscious reminds me.
When class was over I was the first one to leave. My heart rate quickened when I heard swift footsteps following me, making me believe it was Asher. Almost jogging now I turned the corner when the person put their hands on my shoulder making me stop.
I turned around to see Niall who was breathing hard. I was a little disappointed when it wasn’t Asher and scowled at myself for even thinking that.
“Damn for someone who’s short you really walk fast!” Niall joked trying to catch his breath.
“Did you forget that you have to show me around? You can’t escape me that easily ” he told me making me smile sheepishly
“Oh I didn’t forget I just was rushing to the bathroom, I really needed to pee.” I lied
“Oh really then I think you were going the wrong way because I saw a door with “bathroom ” writen on it right beside the classroom you just came out of.” He teased with raised eyebrow. Well f*ck there goes my excuse
“You don’t have to tell me who you were running from” he told me when he saw the look on my face. I really didn’t want to tell a guy I just met about Asher and I even though he seemed cool. With a smile I told him to follow me as I showed him around.
I successfully avoiding Asher for the rest of the day and was surprised when he didn’t make much of an effort to find me. Maybe he doesn’t want you anymore I thought sadly.
I know I was the one who walked away from him but I just wanted him to fight for us. Make me feel like I was worth it. But I guess I wasn’t.
I was on my way to my dorm room when my phone rang. Thinking it was Asher my heart leaped and I picked it up quickly but was disappointed to hear Rose’s voice and not Asher’s husky one.
“Why haven’t you called or come over?” Rose screeched through the phone. It was unusual for me to not speak to her for more than a day but what was I supposed to do? I was grieving a loss relationship.
“I was a little bit busy” I spoke through the phone feeling guilty for not telling her what happened. Yeah cryin over a guy who you thought loved you.
“Yeah with Asher” Rose teased but didn’t know the effect of those words. Hearing Asher’s name from her mouth made me finally realize I lost him, and that thought scared me. I must have stayed quiet for awhile because Rose spoke up her voice soft
“What happened? ” she asked
” I don’t want to talk about it” I sighed
“You better come over in ten minutes ” She argued
“Rose” I whined. I didn’t want to go through this again. It was already embarrassing enough that this happened to me
“Now Lily” she said leaving no room to argue
“OK fine” I sighed and turned around to walk to her apartment. When I reached there the first thing she did when she saw my face was to pull me in a tight hug. I couldn’t help but sob as I remembered what happened
“That little f*cker will pay for whatever he did to you” Rose promised as she rubbed my back
Chapter 38
I pulled away from Rose and wiped my tears with my hands. I looked at her and I could see the pity in her eyes as she looked at me
“Can you stop staring at me like that you’re making me feel like shit” I whispered feeling like crawling in a hole and hide there forever
“Sorry” she said a guilty expression on her face
“It’s fine, you can say I told you so” I said tiredly sniffling as I tried to keep the tears at bay
“I would never f*cking say that Lily, I honestly thought that he would never hurt you, because I saw the way he looked at you, I could tell that you meant a lot to him” she told me
“Yeah meant, past tense” I growled out thinking about the way Asher treated me at school, well the lack of treatment since he pretended that I didn’t exist
“Don’t say that Lily, maybe you misinterpreted things?” She said trying to console me. It wasn’t working because all I could think about was Asher not fighting for me.
“I highly doubt that, not with the way he’s acting” my voice cracking as I began crying again. When will I ever stop crying? Is this how a break up feels? I don’t like it.
“Okay let’s go into my room so you can give me all the details” Rose suggested as she lead me to her room. When we got in all I could do was cry my eyes out as I told her everything. After I was done with my sob story, anger was evident on Ross’s face.
” that little shit could have stood up to his parents” rose yelled out gripping the silk sheets in a tight grip
“Ikr I was expecting him too, especially when his mom slapped me” I said sadly
“I can’t believe that B!tch laid her ugly hands on you, ill f*cking rip them and push it up her husband’s flat a$$” She growled her eyes turning murderous as she thought of ways to do exactly that
“Her hands aren’t ugly though and her husband’s a$$ isn’t flat, I think that’s where Asher inherited that perfect a$$ of his” I told her not really thinking clearly. Maybe this heartbreak got to my head I’m f*cking complimenting those awfully people.
“What the f*ck Lily we’re supposed to be dissing them not praising them you idiot” rose said irritated
“Uh yeah sorry” I sheepishly answered
” any way after I was rudely interrupted, I was saying that maybe we could give them some payback” she said
“No Rose these people are rich and famous they could get away with anything, we don’t stand a chance against them” I warned her
“Yeah you’re right, we could burn one of their house down and blame it on Bruno the squirrel” she laughed evilly and for a second I thought that she was high
” who’s squirrel is named Bruno and why do you want to blame an innocent animal?” I asked her getting off topic
“That squirrel is anything but innocent, that little shit sneaks into the apartment and shits everywhere, once I caught it and I swear it raised its middle finger for me” she said anger written on her face
At this point I couldn’t take Rose seriously as I began laughing hysterically. I think I even speed a little but no one needs to know that. Well except for my panties ofcourse.
” rose are you okay in that little head of yours?” I asked a little worried, she was acting a bit strange but then again Rose always were a bit crazy
” dude I’m perfectly fine” she told me as she got up and walked towards her full length mirror and started making funny faces at her self. Okay I think my best friend has finally lost it.
“Yeah I can see that” I laughed
Okay I will confess, I took some of Noel’s wine and I maybe have drank a little bit too much.” She sighed. How could I have not noticed this. I was so caught up in crying over a guy I didn’t notice the smell of alcohol that is clearly on Rose
” Oh my God Noel’s gonna kill you! I’m not attending your funeral” I told her, already planning my speech I would say at her funeral
“Oh it’ll be fine” she waved off, now she was twerking and I kinda was worried for her waist. As soon as. She said those words an angry Noel could be heard in the kitchen area.
“Where the f*ck is my wine bottle?” He yelled
“Rose” I whispered frightened. She put her index finger on her lips to shush me. But saliva flew directly in my eye when she did that making me scream. Whoops. I heard angry footsteps and it came to a stop directly by her door. Thank god she locked it or I would be witnessing a death today. Noel banged on the door impatiently and I went to hide behind rose who gave me death stares since I was the one who made him know we were in here.
“Rose is not home” she said with an accent I have never thought she could do . She quite frankly sounded like boots in Dora.
“Oh really then who’s in her room, Mary? Noel asked her sarcastically
“Yes I have given birth to baby Jesus you should now bow down to the queen” she said still keeping that accent.
“Rose shut the f*ck up and open the door so I can beat your a$$” Noel growled getting impatient. Okay this is it Noel will kill both of us and ill never get the chance to tell Asher I love him one last time. Why are you still thinking about him?
“Yeah in your dreams Noel” rose taunted way to go rose now you’ll make him more angry
“Rose if you don’t open that door in 2 seconds i’ll f*cking break it down” Noel said seriously. Rose must’ve heard the seriousness in his tone as her eyes widened in panic
“Okay okay here’s the thing I took your wine because Lily and I needed it as we tried to mend her broken heart.” She rushed out as she lied through her teeth
“You little B!tch” I mouthed at her
“You love me anyway” she mouthed back.
That must’ve gotten Noel’s attention because he calmed down.
“What’s wrong with lily?” He asked softly through the door. We were about to answer him when my phone rang silencing everyone. I looked at the caller and was surprised to see my mom calling me. She usually doesn’t call at this hour since she knows it’s the time I study or do my homework. In her words she doesn’t want to disturb me. So I was a little confused when I saw her calling and didn’t waste time in answering fearing it was an emergency.
“Hey mom what’s up?” I asked trying to keep my voice light. I don’t want my mom to know what I was going through.
“Lily your dad is here and he brought company” she said gravely. My heart stopped beating and I could swear I saw blurry for a second. I could feel like the walls were closing in on me as I tried to steady my breathing.
“Who did he bring?” I asked in a small voice. I didn’t know if I wanted to hear the answer for that question.
“Your half sister” she mumbled. And at that point I felt my world was crumbling down.
