Chapter 09
"I hate you! Give me those notes," I immediately said to him after I cried. I didn't even know why I was crying.
"I don't want to… I don't want to, as in I don't want to!"
"Well, if you don't want to give it to him, then give me the notes..."
But he still didn't give it to me, so while he was standing, using my hand, I grabbed and I felt around his black pants uniform to find it.
"What are you doing, Aubree Lynn? Stop it, or people might say something when they pass by our classroom," he asked while trying to remove my hands so he wouldn't be touched, but because I was annoyed with him, I became a dragon now and suddenly became strong.
"Where is it, I said!" Do I really have to fight with him?
"Why? Get your hands off me! Maybe the snake will come to life!" I didn't listen, snake, was in the jungle, not here, so I tried even harder to feel around him and reached into his pocket to feel around better, especially since it was just a small piece of paper.
"Give it to me, or it might get crumpled, I'll just replace it with a new one and I'll give it to Sebastian myself."
"Someone might see us and they might say something." He reminded me again, but I really didn't listen. I'm stubborn.
Next, I reached for his right pocket, I stood up to get my hand further into his pants pocket and he tried to stop me.
But as I felt deep into his black pants pocket, my hand felt something. Wait…
"Hard–"
"f**k!" he cursed.
So hard!
What could it be?
"Aubree Lynn, I have a chocolate… I… I… brought… waaahhh what are you two doing?" Rowela suddenly screamed, so I immediately took my hands out of Ryker's pocket and suddenly hid behind him, but unfortunately, he wasn't ready, so we both fell to the floor.
"f**k!"
"Ouch…"
At this point, I just wanted to become invisible or be swallowed by the earth because of our situation, Ryker and I, which our classmates saw as they entered. I was on top of him. Damn–
"What the… you two..... Are you guys making out while we're gone?"
"That's why he didn't want to go out because these two are doing something miraculous!" one of my classmates said.
"But you should have closed the door first, in case you weren't finished!" another teased.
So in annoyance, I immediately stood up from on top of Ryker and turned to my classmates, especially the boys who were teasing.
"Hey! If you don't know what happened, don't be a gossipers. What do you mean, doing something miraculous? Did you see my clothes crumpled? My hair? No, right? So what you're thinking isn't true," I snapped.
"Weee… tell it to the turtle!"
"You, Pablo! You're back? Hey!" I immediately went to where he was sitting to tease him. But that crazy guy ran away.
"Catch me!" he said.
"Never! Catch yourself!" I shouted softly because he ran out of the classroom. He's crazy.
I went to Ryker, who was in his seat, staring at me, with a mischievous smile on his lips.
I pinched his sharp nose when I got closer, "aww… what kind of love is that, so hurtful!"
"I'm really hurtful, you can't even return a simple piece of paper to me. Just take it and throw it away when you're done reading."
"Why would I read it?"
"Well! If you're curious what's written, maybe you're free to take a peek, I'll just make a new one." I said.
"He doesn't like letters, you don't know that?"
I suddenly brought my face close to his face so I could see his eyes if he was telling the truth. He was surprised, but he didn't avoid my face, he thought I was going to kiss him, I smirk.
"True?"
"Well, if you don't believe me, go ahead, give it to him, and that letter you're going to give him will end up in the trash before his trash in his bag," he reminded me.
I suddenly felt sad, I love to write and that's where I express what I want to say. Then Sebastian, he doesn't like it.
"Is that so? Okay, I'll just tell him. Good thing you told me right away. That's why you don't want to give me the letter because Sebastian won't even accept it!" I said sadly.
"Why do you want to give it to someone else? Just give me your letters, I'll read them, tsk," he teased.
"I don't want to, I don't have anything to write for you, unless you want to read my poems that are in my notes and I'll lend them to you–"
"Give it to me!"
"Wee…"
"T-the poems you mentioned, maybe there's a grammatical error and I can correct it, uhmm yeah, let's correct the mistakes if there are any," he said, so I smiled.
"Really? Wow, but I don't have it with me, it's just at home, but I'll try to bring it tomorrow and give it to you. Thanks in advance," I said.
"I'll write on it if I see any mistakes," he reminded me.
"Are you sure? Just make it beautiful."
He was about to say something, but our professor was already inside the classroom, so as usual, the whole class was quiet.
I'll just thank my crush personally with milk tea and a burger too. For sure he won't refuse. I can't wait anymore.
After our last class, I immediately packed my things and went out the door, someone called me, but I ignored them.
After buying fries and milk tea and a burger, I hurried to the engineering building to give it to Sebastian.
Good thing they were dismissed too, so I caught up, "Is Sebastian there?" I asked the student who just came out of their classroom. I was just waiting in the hallway near their room, in case the students would say something about me picking up my crush. Ayeeh–
"He's probably still inside, miss, just wait," he said. I nodded and thanked him.
I waited for Sebastian for a few minutes, but it's been five minutes and Sebastian still hasn't come out.
Many students passed by me, but he wasn't there. I immediately felt sad, maybe he didn't want to see me. I couldn't stand it anymore and went to him, but I was so disappointed to see that there were no more students inside the classroom.
So that means, he's been out for a while and I didn't even realize he wasn't there anymore, how sad.
With heavy feet, I turned around and didn't look back at their classroom, but my heart jumped for joy when I saw Sebastian rushing towards me. Oh my… help.
"Hi!"
"H-hello!" I said stutteringly when he was in front of me.
"Have you been waiting here for a while? Sorry, I just found out. Good thing my classmate told me someone was looking for me. So I hurried to find you when they mentioned your name."
Omg…
"Is that so? Well… oh…" I handed him the bag and milk tea.
"For me?"
"Y-yes! Uhmm, it's a thank you gift… thank you so much for helping me when I got sick, and you were the one who brought me home," I said, stopping myself from jumping for joy because he accepted what I gave him and I got to talk to him personally.
He's really handsome.
"Is that it? You shouldn't have bothered coming here. Thank you is enough, but since you're here, thanks," he said, so my smile was wide, reaching the sea.
We walked out of the gate together, in short, he's going to take me home. Isn't that great? It's like we're on a double date.
As we approached the gate, I saw Ryker on the soccer field with his other friends, and there was a girl with him, and his eyes were sharp, staring at me? At me? What's this guy's problem, his eyebrows are meeting again.
Whatever, we're going home.
Because Sebastian brought his motorcycle, we rode it. Gosh, here we go again with the feeling that I'm his girlfriend being picked up. I hope it's always like this.
After he put the helmet on my head, I got on his motorcycle and he started it.
We talked while on the road, he wasn't driving too fast, so I could hear him. When we were in high school, sometimes the three of us rode Ryker's or Sebastian's motorcycle, depending on whose motorcycle was available at school. Because we didn't have a motorcycle and I didn't really want to learn how to ride because I'm scared, so I just rode with whoever was available, either of the two.
"Really? You're already on thesis? We're not yet, but I hope our teacher's assignment is easy," I said softly, as if I couldn't break a plate.
"You can do it, you're so b–damn!" I was suddenly surprised because Sebastian cursed, and at the same time, I was surprised because someone suddenly sped past us when we were in front of them.
"Wow! Who was that? Wait, was that Ryker?" I referred to the familiar motorcycle that was about to get far away from us.
"Yeah! I guess so, that jerk got ahead of us."
"Why is he driving his motorcycle like that? Does he want to get into an accident? I'll tell him off tomorrow."
"I'll tell him off too, maybe he's having diarrhea, that's why he's in a hurry to get home," I heard Sebastian say.
"Maybe…" I answered. Is that why he was staring at us like that earlier? Because we were going home and he was gossiping with his friends?
When we reached our alley, I got off Sebastian's motorcycle.
After giving him the helmet, I faced him. "Thank you again, and see you around," I said smiling.
He ruffled my hair. "No problem, you're always free to ride with me, but if Ryker gets there first, I can't do anything but let you go, but don't worry, I don't hold grudges openly," he said, laughing, so I laughed too.
I waved goodbye after saying goodbye. Because I couldn't see him anymore because he turned back into the alley earlier, I started walking home.
I was so happy that day because my crush noticed me, and there were free rides. Gosh.. it feels good to scream with excitement.
I was near home when I heard voices raised. Was that my parents? I hurried and when I got home, I heard Mom and Dad arguing or raising their voices, I thought it was a radio drama.
When I entered the door, I looked for them and they were in the room arguing. Why? What are they fighting about?
"There is! Babeth said there's a girl hanging around you. Who is she, huh?"
"There's no one! The person just asked if there were any raw mangoes being planted because they wanted to eat, why are you jealous just because of that? Even if the person just asked, you think someone is approaching me just for the things you're thinking!"
"I'm not jealous! I just want to know if you have another girl? You know our child will be hurt if we're a broken family!" said Mom.
"There's no one, you're so stubborn!"
I immediately wiped my tears because of what I heard, I didn't know my parents were like this. When did they start fighting like this? Jealous for what?
I was suddenly surprised when the door opened, as was Mom and Dad.
"A-aubree, have you been there for a while?" My mother asked.
I faced them and asked.
"W-why are you fighting?"
