Chapter 6 - Results were not so satisfying

Still, in a daze prior to the previous unfortunate event, I let Chris pick me up from the floor where it feels like my knees have been frozen to the core.

Like the gentleman Chris is, he dusted off my knees and helped me stand straight.

"I am so sorry Sky, I was on a call with mom and she asked me to check on Elle. News flash, that clutz just broke her leg" Chris declared.

Ouch! Must be very hurtful.

Elle and Chris were childhood buddies and I got to know Elle, very recently.

"That's terrible Chris. Is she okay now?"

"Yeah, she sprained it somehow, but I have to go to see her at the hospital."

"You should definitely go, send her my regards as well."

"I hate leaving you alone, let me drop you home first " Chris requested with pleading puppy eyes.

I kept my hand over his chest in a gesture to stop him.

"Don't worry about me, I will take a taxi. You should go to the hospital first, now shoo" After some more persuasion finally Chris left me outside the mall, as he was obliged to go to the hospital to check on Elle now and of course it was not fair to go home with a company of twelve shopping bags on a motorcycle.

So I decided to go home by taxi. Within five minutes, I got one and as I am about to step inside I saw a black expensive car pass by my side. It is not the car that caught my attention, it's the man inside who caught my attention.

It was him. Mister Arrogant sitting in the back seat, windows rolled down with his driver in the front, and he was staring at me no smirking at me.

The car raced very fast by my side but I did not miss the solid three-second eye contact between us.

Go to hell asshole, I whispered under my breath and went ahead to sit inside my taxi, heading back to my home after such a long hectic day.

Two weeks has been passed and I was still wondering what could be that jerk's name. I was finding it kind of hard to forget those piercing eyes and mocking smirk.

I guessed many but the results were not so satisfying. The more I was trying to forget his face, the lesser I was getting to succeed. Every day his chiselled face haunted my thoughts. It's like he got some space in my mind and maybe in my heart?

Ew get a grip Skylar, since when did I turn so cheesy!

Those eyes, I could never forget those eyes. They were like magnets, which deeply attracted me in every possible way.

Even I really didn't want to admit but yes the truth was he was undeniably one of the handsome creatures I have ever laid my eyes on.

No, I think the word handsome seemed very minuscule to describe his grandeur. He was tall, fit, although he appeared a little older to be grouped as a teen. His seasoned looks enhanced his charm and made him irrevocably handsome but still Arrogant to the core, with a capital A of course.

At nearly midnight the buzz of my phone woke me up from my so sweet dreams. I fumbled over the nightstand through the dark finally managing to scrape it out.

As I unlocked my phone, I saw who the caller was and decided to leave it buzzing.

It was Elle. Yes, the girl who got a sprain in her leg weeks ago that Chris has informed me about.

God, she must have gone crazy. I mean who calls at midnight to inform about the hot boys, scandals, scoops, parties etc?

I guess every other teenager aside from me. Sometimes I do feel I am an old lady living rent-free in a teen's body. Even my Grandmother is more lively, vibrant and the complete opposite of me.

Now coming back to Elle, you can say she could be your daily dose of entertainment gossip.

Elle likes to talk (like a chatterbox) and I was bound to listen as she became one of my closest friends through this summer.

Taking a deep breath I clicked the answer button.

"Hello Sexy" I greeted.

"Hello sex goddess yourself "Elle greeted and laughed.

"Elle!!" I screeched.

"Just kidding Sky. Or maybe not. So what were you doing Ms VIRGIN OF THE YEAR?"

"ELLE, I swear!" I screamed letting all the air out of my lungs. I heard her laughing so hard at the other side.

"Elle, did you call me at this hour to throw your stupid awards to me?" I cursed under my breath.

"Chill babe, can't I call u now and then, do friends needs a reason to call?" she said with a fake crying tone.

"Oh stop it, don't do dis emotional shit. Where's naughty Elle?" as soon as I spoke the words I instantly regretted.

"Ah...Somebody called me naughty huh

so let's get naughty, baby common I want you now" She spoke with her fake slutty accent. See, that's why I regretted it.

"Sorry, El but I am not interested, and why I keep needlessly confessing to everyone? understand?"I blurted.

"Ouch...that hurts" She laughed and I also can't stop the mine.

"The sheer bad luck that I have around guys, may turn me into a lesbian someday and don't worry you will be my first preference." I joked.

Belonging to any LGBTQ+ community is a pride thing and I have always supported the concept of Love is love.

I was confident with my sexuality but it was just my problem that I have never found any kind of true love from the opposite sex.

If you think that I am just another eighteen, young, and still a virgin in search of her prince charming then dear lord sorry to break your thoughts, this girl needs no Prince charming and she can always save herself. Thank you very much.
