"Just a friend Nat huh? We don't control your heart.." Kylie's eyebrows rose.
We are here now inside the gym. We are resting just after we practiced volleyball. In front of us are basketball players from other courses
"No," I answered simply.
"But there's romance?"
I rolled my eyes and bit my lip. I folded my thigh and covered my legs with the handkerchief I was carrying.
"There are. We kissed, " I smirked when I remembered that.
"Just a kiss?" Fuck, what does she want more of there? I looked at her so she could see that I wasn’t happy with her question.
"Just kiss," I replied emphatically.
"Okay," SHe touched her chin as if thinking.
"But do you like him?"
In this case, Kylie is really the only one I can trust here. We shared secrets and problems. That's what friends are for. With Kylie's question I shouldn't think about that or ask in my mind.
I knew that right away. Yes. I love him, I love him. I love him even though we never were.
"I love him," I nodded as I said that. I pinched my fingers where I was pouring all my emotions.
Kylie sighed. "Right! E now he's engaged," She adjusted her gear so so did I.
"What will you do?"
We stood up but still talked.
“Nothing. I will just let my heart get tired. I will focus my attention on my studies. I will just love my book, "I said half kidding.
"But, what about Damon?"
Damon? I stopped to involve Damon's name in the conversation. I'm comfortable with him. He's like a boy bestfriend for me. Even if he is stuck with others. He was kind to me even though his face was serious.
"We're friends."
She nodded and pursed her lips.
"You do not like him?"
I shook my head. “No, I like him just a friend,” I was sure.
The day ended quickly, I knew Kylie also had a problem so she went home first. I think Clinton is being avoided by Kylie. Kylie is jolly. She's beautiful, too. I prefer the features of her face. What makes her look attractive is the perfect shape of her thick eyebrows. Even if it is no longer forged like the trend now it is perfect.
But I'm just taller than her. I was about to go home after I put the books in the locker when it rained so hard outside. I can see that from here and the gusts of wind.
It was five o'clock in the afternoon so the dark sky only got darker because of the black clouds.
I dialed mama to pick me up but I was depressed to see that my battery was dead.
"How's that," I said frustrated. In the extreme cold I decided to go to the library first to spend the rain.
There are not too many students. Because the students here, when they go home. There are more people to hang out there than here inside.
I closed the door of the library and at the same time the lightning was loud. But I was not afraid of lightning so I just ignored it. I started looking for a book when the lights shut off!
"Shit! Brownout?" I can hardly believe what I say. I'm stating the obvious because it was already dark, I just left the library holding my only bag.
Is there no generator here?
"Nat ,you didn’t come home?" I was shocked and immediately my chest ached because of the question. Gosh! Stupid! That's why I'm here because I haven't been home yet.
I hid the irritation with a smile. Somehow I was thankful that I had someone with me here in the dark hallway.
"It's you Mike. Yes, it's raining all of a sudden. I'll just let you go home right away."
I smiled at him. Mike Esguerra is one of my nerd batchmates. sometimes we meet at the library because we both love books. Sometimes in the quizbee where we participate. He scratched his neck and blushed.
"We're the same," he laughed a little shyly but we continued walking. until we reached Sebe’s office which we had to pass by.
My chest throbbed immediately.
No, that's not here anymore. The door is closed but I'm not sure if it's locked and if he's not there.
"Ah, I'd like to ask if ..."
Her cheek turned red again. and I want to be annoyed there, I still don't want men to be stupid and shy.
"You want to?" I mimicked his voice and looked at him hawklike. Come on!
"Please I’sd like to invite you to lunch tomorrow." At the same time, he said that Sebe's office was opening.
Damn it! The timing!
At the same time as the thunder of lightning I looked at Sebe at the office door. He's looking at me with his dark and piercing eyes. His jaw tightened as he turned to look at Mike.
Mike immediately bowed his head when he saw Sebe.
"Ah, good evening sir!" Mike greets Sebe but Sebe doesn't respond.
This one has no manners.
Well, it's already night because it's really dark outside.
Because I didn't want to be rude either, I greeted Sebe.
"Good evening Sir Sebe."
He took a deep breath and put his hand in both pockets.
"Dating in the dark huh?" I was surprised by what Sebe said. I don’t know why he said that. He's so rude!
Mike blushed immediately.
"Ah hi-"
"Leave us alone," Sebe firmly commanded Mike, not leaving his eyes on me.
My heart pounded. I don't know if I will be happy or sad because I am here again. Mike was surprised by what he said and turned to me innocently.
"Ah, all right. Nat? Let's have lunch tomorrow?" He kept asking me.
He can't be tomorrow, "Sebe was immediately alerted by Mike.
"Leave us now," And he almost uttered a strong joint. My leg almost shook at the apparent anger now towards Sebe.
His office is lit inside as if from rechargeble lighting. Maybe the school generator is broken. when there was, now there isn't. Mike left immediately and I was left speechless and what to do.
Why else would I stare at it? I don't need him at all. Even if it's dark, I can do it.
"I'm leaving too," I respectfully said goodbye but one step away from him he grabbed my wristband and pulled me into his office.
He closed and locked the door!
I could barely process in my brain what happened, he did.
"Why did you take me in--"
"Why? You want to be out there because that Esguerra is there?" It almost thundered throughout his office saying that. Even though the rain and wind were loud outside, Sebe's voice prevailed.
What? What is this one saying ??he waved in front of me as I was near his desk.
"What are you saying?" I asked.
Why he's acting like an idiot now? Huh? He scoffed and licked his lips.
"I know you know what I mean. Are you two dating?"
I opened my mouth to what he was saying. I really can't believe it.
"Were not dating!" I insisted. "Can I! What's wrong with you, don't touch me!" I was cut back.
If he had a problem I would not be there. Why is he piling on me huh? I am silent here, even though I am hurt I avoid and remain silent. Is he done here? Idiot.
"You're my problem Natalia," Hard to say.
What? Me?
"I'm going crazy in my life! I'm going crazy because I'm avoiding you even if I don't want to !now I'm even crazier because you're with someone else !! "
If it comes from another man, maybe you will hear it, but if it comes from him, you will be calm with his seriousness. My eyes immediately warmed to what he said.
What is this huh? He bent down and rubbed his neck.
"I don't get you," I said recovering. "I try to understand Sebe. But the difficulty," Especially when you.
He heaved a sigh and approached me. At the same time as the lightning outside, my chest throbbed. Please don't make it hard for me Sebe.
he held my waist and he could hardly carry me and lay me down on the table. So I was held by his handsome arm
"I know it's hard for the two of us," he said softly and cupped my cheek in his palm. I can almost get close to the heat that comes from non.
He bit his lips again so I looked there. My heart is pounding now.
“I know you know,” He seemed to make me understand his word and situation.
"I know that engage."
“Like I said Natalia,” He touched my cheeks. "Being the older Grandson of our Empire is not an easy," He stated
I looked at him same intensity. Now tell me. I will understand as I understand the difficult things I study.
"I have to do what they say for the wealth of the clan." he cursed. "But I'm working my way up."
He leaned closer as he was almost in the middle of my thigh.
"Just please wait for me. I promise. It will end soon," he said softly and kissed me on the forehead. So can we talk now because brown out and no one can see?
No I get it. Are they fixed marriage? For their clan? To grow more and get richer? E, they are very rich e. Are they that greedy?
"Do you love her?"
"You know who I love," he smiled devilishly. Gosh. I'm melting.
"Who?" I asked and smirked mentally. Please tell me.
"The girl named Natalia. The one who captured my heart. The one who's with me right now."
I inhaled his fragrant breath. because he was so close to me. My stomach is almost rumbling now. Shit. Let my heart go with it. tortured really.
He rested his forehead on my forehead. Our nose almost touching.
"I missed you," he said in a whisper and hugged my arm. Instantly the heat in my system.
“S-Sebe,“ I’m trembling!
"Hmmm?" He hummed.
I gently touch his arm, up to his wide and handsome shoulder. Until I can touch both of his jaws.
He's so perfect. He's the prince of my own love story.
"I--" Fuck. I can't say it!
"What huh?" He teased.
But before anything else I lifted my head and pulled his face down to mine so that our lips could meet. He wasn't even surprised he seemed to know and was looking forward to what I would do. So he immediately hugged me even more and covered my lips even more that I almost moaned.
He pulled my waist on his bulge and I clinged my legs on his waist. I didn't have a hard time because I was sitting at the table. This night is wonderful. Even now gabe I will be amazed.
"S-sebe," I moaned and I grind myself more. I'm getting hot. Is that so? my body seemed to move spontaneously in need.
"Natalia," He protested when I was about to take off his polo.
"What?" I'm in a small hoarse voice.
"Don't do this again," he adjusted our seat. He stood me up and fixed my hair and uniform.
I was almost depressed.
“Maybe I can do what I really want to do with you,” he said in a serious tone.
Sebe and I are now lying on the sofa. Struggling to fit our body. his length extends beyond the sofa.He’s caressing my hair that almost puts me to sleep plus the soft melody that escapes the tightness of his mouth as if I’m a child singing.
While outside there was still incessant rain and thunder of lightning.
I closed my eyes and feel the warmth from his body. My head caught on his wide chest.
"I love you so much. Just hold on please," I closed my eyes emphatically when I heard his almost hoarse and whispered voice. He thought I was asleep.
I am so happy.
