Chapter 41
We were currently in the kitchen eating breakfast. While Noel and Rose had eggs and toast I had to settle for dried crackers and some tea. The nauseated feeling kinda went away a little bit but I still felt weak from throwing up awhile ago.
“So when are you going to meet your dad and sister?” Noel asked. It didn’t sit well with me when he called her my sister or when he called him my dad. Just thinking about it made my blood boil. I refrained myself from lashing out on him though, since it was an innocent question and he wouldn’t have known it would of affected me that much. So I decided to answer the question as nonchalant as possible trying to hide in the anger I felt at the question.
“Summer break is in two days so I was thinking I should just take the opportunity then” I shrugged while chewing hard on the crackers. My jaw started to hurt when I realized I’ve been biting a little to aggressively and stopped myself from clenching my teeth.
“I think that’s a good idea!” Rose cheerfully added
“Yeah I guess, I still don’t know if I made the right choice” I said a little bit grumpy as I slumped on the barstool. I kinda didn’t have appetite even for dry a$$ crackers right now as we were on a sensitive topic.
“I think you did Lily, just stay positive” Noel told me as Rose nodded in agreement.
“How are you going to reach there?” Rose asked after a long awkward pause of eight minutes. I looked at her as I got off the stool and went to wash my hands.
“I’m taking the bus I guess” I shrugged as I dried my hands.
“But you hate buses” she pointed out as she ate her eggs. Some pieces even flying out and landed on Noels cheek. He gave her an intense glare as he wiped it off with a cringe. It was true though about me hating buses. I always felt claustrophobic whenever I took one and it wasn’t a good feeling.
“Yeah I know but I don’t want to bother my mom in having to pick me up. I said truthfully. I really didn’t want to trouble her, she has enough on her plate with my so called dad coming back and trying to make amends.
“Can’t you get someone who has a vehicle to drop you off?” Rose asked hopefully
“I don’t have friends except you guys” I said sadly. Well I do have another friend, doesn’t Niall count as one? I mean we have been getting a little bit closer. They gave me a reassuring look before changing the subject.
“We can’t go with you, we are actually going at our parents home for summer break” Noel sighed as he looked guilty for not being able to drop me off.
“Oh that sounds lovely” I was truly happy for them since they haven’t seen their parents in awhile. Not since they had a huge fight about Noel being gay and not accepting him. He moved here to start over and Rose being the supportive sister moved with him. I’m glad to see they are now on speaking terms again with their parents since all of them were close but that huge fight drifted them apart.
“Yeah wish you could have come” Rose said sadly.
“Anything would be better than going and meet that man and his daughter” I stated as I dramatically shivered to get my point across. We all busted into laughter before resuming to what we were doing. Noel and Rose continued eating breakfast will I went on to get ready for school.
At school….
I was in my second class when I discovered that our teacher wasn’t here today. So not having anything to do I decided to take out one of my books to read to past time. I was five minutes into the book when I heard footsteps heading my way. I was startled a little when someone sat in the seat next to me. I looked up at the culprit and let out a relieved sigh when I saw that it was Niall. He looked like he was out of breath and was sweating profusely. I raised my eyebrow in question at his disheveled state.
“What happened to you?” I asked
“My alarm didn’t go off” he chuckled sheepishly
“Oh I thought you were running away from a masked murderer or something” I joked. He laughed as he fixed himself on the chair and slouched on the desk
“So what did I miss” he asked as he looked around for the teacher. Looking confused when he didn’t see one he brought back his attention to me.
“You didn’t miss anything other than our teacher being absent like usual.” I shrugged nonchalant. It was true though our teacher was hardly present but when she was she would just give us work without explaining anything to us. Sometimes I wonder how she was even a teacher to begin with.
“Ha seems like she has better things to do than babysit a bunch of college students who still act like toddlers” Niall joked
“But that’s what she is paid to do, it’s getting a little annoying when your teacher isn’t teaching you anything but by the end of the term we would have an exam we haven’t even known about” I said irritated.
“Have you guys thought about informing this to the headmaster” he asked
“Trust me we have but it’s of no use since she’s his wife” I laughed
“Oh that explains it” he nodded in understanding
“Yep” I answered popping the p…
“So what are you doing for summer break?” I asked trying to make conversation
“Nothing actually I thought that I could just lay in bed playing video games” he laughed when he saw the look on my face
“That’s boring, how about you come home with me, I’m sure my mom would love the extra company” I could use a shoulder to lean on when I come face to face with my father and half sister. Niall has a car so it would be bonus a for me. I really didn’t want to take the bus.
“Oh so it’s meet the parents already? Didn’t know we were in a committed relationship lils” he teased. His eyes flashed with mischief as he waited for my comeback
I rolled my eyes “Stop feeling yourself doofus, I just wanted company and I thought that we were close friends”
“Ouch friend zone” he dramatically put a hand over his heart as his face clenched with pain. We burst out laughing when I knocked him in the head with the book I was reading earlier.
“You’re an idiot” I stated while he rubbed his head where I had hit
“Okay I’ll come but on one condition” he said
“Go ahead” I gestured for him to continue
“You play at least one video game with me” he announced and gave me the lost puppy look. He looked cute and for a second I couldn’t think.
Chapter 42
Niall and I were heading to lunch. We were currently in an intense conversation about which animal would be the best pet to have. My bet was on a dog since cat shit smells pretty badly and a dog is so loyal there is know way I could leave that for a cat who shits everywhere, eats old shit and scratches you. Yeah hell nah I’m good with a puppy. But someone thought otherwise which brings us to now.
“What are you crazy? cats are so much cuter ” Niall exaggerated
“Some of them, did you forget those who don’t have fur?” I cringed when I remembered one I saw yesterday. Gosh not cute at all, it even hissed at me like I was the one who shaved it.
“Hey they’re still cute” Niall pouted. That made me roll my eyes at his cuteness. Can this guy get any cuter?
“Dude dogs are the best end of discussion ” I stuck my tongue out childishly making him chuckle
“No they are not, they bark a lot and sniff asses.” He told me raising his eyebrow
“Better than eating rats and shitting where you can’t reach to clean it” I too raised my eyebrow challenging him
“Yeah you have a point, but I still stand, cats are way cuter” he sighed in defeat
“Okay they are but they’re the devil in disguise ” I pointed out
“Touche” he agreed smiling
By the time we were done with our conversation we had already reached on the lunch line. Niall was at the front of me still talking about cute cats while my attention was on a muscular guy who was talking to a girl. He turned slightly making me see his face properly and my heart logged in my throat as my feelings came back in a rush. It’s not like your feelings left anyway .It was Asher who was having a conversation with a very attractive girl. They seem to be in an intense conversation as she openly flirted with him. He seemed to enjoy the attention as his head fell back and let out a husky laugh.
Hearing his laugh made my heart skip a beat as I fought to stop myself from making myself look like a fool. The guy moved on lily, you weren’t worth it. And even though I knew that was probably true I still couldn’t stop loving him. He ruined me for any other guys.
He must have felt my stare because now his eyes were staring directly in mine. Both of us speechless as our eyes spoke for us. I could see the love in his eyes before he quickly concealed it and became emotionless. I didn’t want to break our staring contest since it was the first time I got a proper good look at his face.
He looked exaughsted with dark circles underneath his eyes. But that still didn’t make him ugly if anything it made him look rugged in a manly way. He looked fcking sxy with his five o clock shadow, and that just made me more sad knowing that I couldn’t be close to him.
“Earth to lily” Niall snapped his fingers in front of my face bringing me back to reality. I realised that we were now in front waiting to be served by the impatient cooks. I gave them an embarrassed smile and took a sandwich and juice. I quickly walked away as Niall followed me laughing at my expense.
” sorry I got distracted ” I told Niall as we sat on the cafeteria chairs and started eating. I felt a little bit guilty for not listening to him earlier.
“Yeah I can tell, you and Asher were eye f*cking each other openly” he teased wiggling his eyebrows at me.
“Oh my god shut up you’re embarrassing ” I slapped my hands over my face as I sunk in embarrassment. At this Niall burst out laughing before pulling me into a hug and playfully messed up my hair.
“Aww nugget don’t be embarrassed ” Niall teased as he playfully pulled my hair. I swat at his hands and gave him a playful glare.
We were suddenly startled at the loud commotion. Looking up I saw that Asher threw his chair as he got up and slammed his fisted hands on the table. He looked at us angrily as he stomped out of the cafeteria. I looked at where he was a few seconds ago in confusion. What’s up with him? I thought as I felt saddened that I couldn’t go and check up on him.
Hearing a chair scrape I looked at the culprit, it was the girl Asher was talking to. She got up and rushed out after him. Seeing this made me angry and I took it out on my poor sandwich. I chewed loudly as I thought of ways I could kill the b!tch. Okay maybe that was a little to extreme. Maybe I should cut off her hair or should I say extensions and shave off her eyebrows. I smiled creepily at the thought.
“Uh should I be afraid?” Niall said breaking me out of my thoughts for maybe the fifth time today
“Huh what” I asked totally lost
“You were just staring at the table creepily like you would murder someone.” Niall chuckled
“That thought haven’t crossed my mind” I lied smoothly. Okay not smoothly because Niall laughed louder even smacking the table for extra.
“Yeah I didn’t see you give that girl death stares awhile ago” he said sarcastically when he got his breath back from laughing to much. Before I could give a comeback the bell rang to let us know lunch was over. Getting up we walked towards the trash to throw out juice bottles and plastic plates. Niall put his arms around my shoulder as we got out of the cafeteria and headed to our last class. There were students still in the hallway and I could feel a burning stare at us. Looking around I didn’t see anyone.
“I’ll see you after school I have P.E for my last class.” I told niall as we went out separate ways.
” ooo I feel your pain of having P.E as you last class.” He said as he winced. I laughed and nodded in agreement. Waving at him I walked into the changing rooms.The rest of the girls must have already changed into their sports clothes because there wasn’t anyone there. It was great anyway since I hate to change in front of them. They would glare at my body and make me feel uncomfortable.
Sighing I went to the locker where my P.E clothes were. Opening it,I searched for them and took them out. I was pulling my shirt over my head when I felt a presence in the room. Turning around swiftly I gasped when I saw who it was.
