Chapter 17
Title: Unexpectedly Yours
Prologue:
I am a loner, an introverted person and I never try to socialize with anybody since I find it uncomfortable. I am happy with this set up of my school life. Less hassle, less trouble, less stress. But unfortunately, an incident caused my quiet life to falter.
"Hey, Primitive!" I think they are our Seniors. I don't know if where did she get my name.
"Yes?" Clueless I promise.
"You bastard! Why are you flirting with my boyfriend ?!" Suddenly it promised and slapped me. I could not immediately react to what he did. What the?!. What is she talking about? All the students here in the cafeteria looked at our behavior. I really hate this. I really hate attentions. How did she accused me for something that I'd never done?
"Don't accuse me, Miss. I don't know what you're talking about" I promised and put away my belongings. I'd better just leave here. I don't have time for this matter. I was about to leave when his companions blocked me so that I could not leave.
"Ha!" She scoffed. "What's wrong ?! Isn't that you ?!" And she throw photos in front of my face. Some of it was scattered on the floor. I frowned and took a picture. It's me and my ..... cousin. My fist clenched. Shameless! Is this what I'm saying! Lintik ka talaga, Aziz Lysander! I gasped and stared at the woman.
"I'm not flirting with him. I'm just his tutor" I explained calmly but he obviously didn't want to believe. It's really true. I am a tutor of my mongoloid cousin. I can't tell them that we're relatives since we have an agreement.
"Tutor? Am I dumb to believe you ?!" He said angrily so I calmed myself down. I smiled at him. I don't have choice but to tell her the most dumbest alibi that I have in my mind.
"Miss, I already have a boyfriend so don't blame me" I promised. This is probably the funniest reason I"ve done in my entire life. It's a good thing my gorilla cousin isn't here, otherwise, I'll be laughed at again. His forehead furrowed at what I said.
"Boyfriend? If what you're saying is true, show us what you're saying boyfriend" He said hard so it was as if I swallowed my tongue whole. I heard the ringing bell coming from the entrance of this cafeteria. It means someone is coming and passing it in our place since we are close to the pathway. I turned around and saw there a man coming in with two companions.
Bahala na. When it passed our place, I immediately grabbed its arm to everyone's surprise. I don't know if it's only me but I saw them all turn pale in front of me. Everyone got silent and only I could hear is their gasps.
"He's my boyfriend" I said causing them to almost drop their jaws. I can feel that the guy suddenly stiffened. I looked up at it and gave it a follow-you-just-look. I just ignored these burning eyes that anytime I will be able to live here.
"S-Are you sure?" I couldn't believe the language of the woman in front of me who was the girlfriend of my gorilla cousin. I took it. I wondered when she immediately fix the photos on my table and leave without saying anything. When they left, I let go of the arm of the man I was holding and I was blown away by the wind. Tsk. I really hate this stuff.
The heavy atmosphere around me still makes me look at my fellow students. They started whispering which frowned at me. What's going on? I turned my gaze to the man who was still here until now and his eyebrows were almost glued together because it was so close. His face is familiar. Where have I seen it? I stared at his face intently and I almost ran out of blood when I recognized who he was. Why didn"t I immediately face it earlier? Shit! O-Okay. It seems like I'm in big trouble.
"S-Sorry" That's all I said and I quickly put away my stuff. Shit! Shit! Primitive! You fool! I was about to leave when it touched my arm. It was so tight that I winced. If he's mad about it, then ... "I'm sorry for g-I did" I apologized to him again and swallowed because I was nervous.
He is Kane Sylvester Rockford. The school's SSC President and not just like that, he is also a member of Basketball Varsity team. A Hearthrob of this school, a man of archery and a rumored boyfriend of Maddox Beatrice Cladéron. Not only that, everyone is also afraid of him. No one dare to cross his path when it is not that important. I almost bury myself in the ground to marealize the big mistake I made.
"Sorry? After you cause a big trouble?" Its cold promise. Its aura was also dark so I swallowed. I removed his hand from my arm.
"I already apologized, didn't I?" I said and quickly turned my back on it and hurried out of the cafeteria. I bit my lower lip because I was so annoyed with myself. All the students followed my gaze, some of them are also taking photos of me.
I was already far from the cafeteria and I was close to the Science Laboratory when someone grabbed my arm and quickly leaned me against the wall. I close my eyes tightly because of the pain in my back. When I opened my eyes a pair of chocolate brown orbs meet my eyes. I was amazed to see his face again. It stared intently at me. I looked around and thanked him because no student was passing by here if it wasn't another scandal.
When I recovered I pushed it but it didn't move. "What the hell are you doing ?!" I asked him annoyed, trying to fight the fear and the feeling I was feeling. An evil smirk slowly formed on his red luscious li-Oh come on! Stop it, Primitiva!
"Is that so? After you put my name on something worthless, will you just apologize? That's not fair, lady" He whispered close to me. I can feel his warm minty breath on my face. I suddenly feel a weird thing in my tummy. I averted my eyes from him. H
"Then, what do you want me to do? If you want me to withdraw my statement earlier then I'll do it even in front of our schoolmate to clear your name. Just to make it fair with you" I decided and pushed him again but he didn't really move. Someone save me from this guy!
"No" He said and touched my chin and lifted it so that I could stare into his eyes again. His eyes seemed to be persecuted as well as my persona. "I want you to take responsibility for it. You started this game, so I'll play with it" He said and touched my lip which made me grin as I felt pain. I looked at his thumb where there was a little blood. I wish I could talk more this away from me.
"You're mine now, lady" He added before leaving me staring here in a corner. M-Mine? What the hell is he saying ?! Immediately ?!
