I look at the two in shock who were playing like in a battle. Gosh, they really get along really well. Well, at least Nathan's water gun had no water in it because it would be hard to clean up after.
They continued firing while I stood up and watched them from a corner where I won't be hurt by the 'monster'. Finally, the sound of guns they made stopped.
"Okay, you win, kid." Eion raised his hand, surrendering.
My brother jumped in joy. "Did you see it Snowwy? We won!" He exclaimed to me. Eion turned his attention to me as if he didn't notice me this whole time. He stared at me blankly and I stared back, hiding the smile on my face.
When I couldn't take it anymore, I giggled. A slight tinge of pin
Everyone got up as soon as the bell rang. I packed up my things and slung my backpack over my shoulder. I was about to head directly to the door and go home when I remembered that we haven't finished the task yet. I turned around to look at the back to check if Eion was still there. I sighed in relief as I saw him adjusting the straps of his bag before flinging it over his shoulder. He didn't see me standing at the doorway as he still prepared himself to leave. I step aside to allow students to exit towards the door as they bumped into me repeatedly. "Eion," I called out enough for him to hear. He looked up and nodded his head lazily just seeing me. I waved him over, motioning to come. "What is it?" He asked in his u
"Wait, what?" I asked. It took me a minute to register it in my mind. His...house? My eyes bulged and my mouth formed an 'o'. Eion was now on the outside of the car, waiting for me impatiently. I opened the door and managed to stand properly without falling. With my jellied knees, my eyes were glued to the house in front of me. I had to practically raise my head higher to see the house's interior. I tried so hard not to gawk, I could feel Eion's gaze from my back. All I can say is that it was huge, but it was larger than Aunt Maggie's house. If measured, our average house didn't even reach half of it. I gulped down the drool on my mouth and cleared my throat. Eion started to walk towards the front porch and was motioning his head for me to follow him. And for the first time, I obeyed
"Are you coming or what?" Eion asked me irritatedly from the stairs and I offered a small smile to Eion’s father before ascending the stairs and followed Eion. He entered a door that was painted in navy blue before motioning for me to come. Entering the room, it was actually Eion’s bedroom. I looked around, expecting his room to be messy and dirty but instead, I was greeted with a very clean room. There wasn't a single mess. I touched the wall and saw that there was not even dust. The only mess was the shirt that he wore earlier, laying at the edge of his bed. I could say it’s massive since my room was even half of it. When I entered, a small living room greeted me. The black cushioned sofa
"No, I didn't." I lied. "Snow. I am not stupid. I know you saw something, now say it." He said in a low voice, I gulped. His eyes pierced me, almost like piercing my soul. Knowing he won't stop until I tell the truth, I sighed, not having a choice. "Well, actually, I have." I hesitantly said. "What are those....smurf stickers on your books?" I asked slowly, afraid of his reaction. Was it that big of a big deal for him? I waited for an outburst or anything, but nothing came. Furrowing my eyebrows, I dared to look at him and saw he was calm and was looking at me curiously. I raised my eyebrows at him, "What?" "You can laugh now. C'mon, laugh at me." He said.
Happy Birthday. Those were words I want to hear from my friends and my family today. However, they forgot about it, much to my disappointment. Am I asking too much? It was just a simple greeting with two words and thirteen words. Perhaps I'm overreacting. I know I'm too old for this. But it's not every day that you turn seventeen. "Are you okay?" Ember asked upon noticing my mood. I sent her a weak smile and nodded my head yes. She seemed to notice the truth behind my eyes but didn't ask further. I sighed. Even Ember was concerned about me... when my own friends were acting like it's a normal day. Tomorrow I will avoid them, for sure they will regret forge
Turning my head around, I look for the source of the voice just to see him grinning from the far end of the garden. Without thinking, I ran towards him. "Miss me?" He said as soon as I was centimeters away from him. The only reply he received was my hand touching his face. I slapped him. Hard. Luke groaned. "What was that for?" I smiled at him sweetly. "Well, firstly, you didn't show up today in school. Secondly, you, of all the people in the world, forget this day!! You forgot about my birthday! Now, how could you show up here with that grin of yours!!!" He threw his hands up and chuckled. "Oh, c'mon! I am th
"Well, sorry to inform you. But you are mine. And now that you are mine, I wouldn't do something that will waste my effort of courting you." He said sincerely, his tone was so sure. I looked at him disbelievingly, smiling for him to know that I was just joking. I was about to tell a remark when the sound of a screeching chair sounded through the clatter and a boy stood up. Eion. He whispered something to Dax and after a few words, Dax nodded before the robot walked away. "Where did he go?" Asked Luke from beside me, voicing my thoughts. "He was just going to check for his car, he said he left his phone." Dax shrugged before talking with Emma. More like flirting. The waiter came to our table and served our orders. We thanke
Distracted from my thoughts, I didn't realize that Luke went to the mini stage and grabbed the mic. “I found a love for me Darling just dive right in And follow my lead Well I found a girl beautiful and sweet I never knew you were the someone waiting for me” His voice was soft and husky. It wasn't too bad and out of tune, nor was it too good, but it was perfect. The way he said the words, just left me speechless, like he meant every word to....me. “Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms Barefoot on the grass, listeni
