It was almost a month since Matthew and Elena had started their fight and had no intentions of clearing it. Things were better now, apart from the occasional glancing at each other, everything else did well. Elena now had Craig, whom everyone knows was hitting on her.
“So…” Gaby called out as they got out of Silver’s car.Elena eyed her, putting her in her scrutinizing gaze as they walked towards her locker.“I bet she’s hiding something. She has been acting weird ever since yesterday.” Elena added, turning to silver to back her up.“I can’t say.” Silver replied without looking at Elena.Elena glanced back and forth between the two of them. If Gaby was acting suspiciously, she could still try to get a hold of that. But Silver acting the same way was something that was top-notch suspicious.“What’s going on?” She asked as they stood beside her locker.“Hey Matthew,” Silver greeted, making Elena’s heart jump up.The day ended with Elena and Craig being the hot topic, and Bianca appearing in a few cases. During the cafeteria period, both of them were nowhere to be found. The surprise he had done for her in the class was something that no one had seen before, even annoying some girls while some cheered for her.With the help of Gaby and Silver, immediately she entered the class, gifts and letters were arranged on the table, and she read every one of them out before she could seat down. As if it was being planned, the teacher did not come in until she was done reading and the other student was done fawning. All this irritated Matthew to the bone, leaving the class until they finished everything they were doing.“Elena,” Gaby called out at the end of the day from silver’s car.“Are you guys leaving me out or what?” Elena asked with a raise of her brow as she approached both of them.“Nope. We’re not leaving you out. I’m leaving the both of you out. Since you guys are now taken and I’m the single
“Have a nice day babe.” Craig said as he dropped kissed Elena on the lips, turning to walk to their building.Elena watched him disappear before opening her locker and bringing out her books, putting her bag inside it before closing the locker.“Ahh.” She jumped up in shock before a hiss escaped her lips.“I’m not interested in talking to the both of you. Live your single life and you, your ‘taken’ life.” She said as she moved to walk away.“But he dropped you at home already, why are you mad at us?” Gaby asked as she blocked Elena’s path.“Because you didn’t ask me if I wanted to follow him out or not. You just threw me under the bus.”She replied, eyeing the both of them and moving to pass another side.Silver wrapped her hand around her neck, a smile booming on her lips as she glanced at her.“How did the ride go?” She asked.Elena removed her hand, looking at both of them and shaking her head negatively.“I get why I became friends with Gaby, but Silver, how did we become friends?
Silver stared at Matthew in shock, surprised at the word that just came out of his mouth. With her wide mouth agape, begging for her to close it and her throat trying to find some words to say to him, she brought her mouth to a close, clenching her jaw and averting her gaze away from him.“So that’s the end of the friendship. Now I get it.” She muttered before looking up at him again.“What’s wrong with you? Why are you in the school clinic all of a sudden?” She asked, raking his body with her eyes.“Felt a little tired and nauseous, so here am I..”“Are you pregnant?”“What!” Matthew almost yelled out with widened eyes.A deep laugh resounded from Silver’s throat, her face full of smiles."That’s good. Take care of yourself." She said and moved to stand up from the bed."Congratulations on finally leaving the single team."Silver stopped in her tracks and turned back to look at Matthew, her lips stretching into a wide smile."I could say the same to you, but I don't know your status
“Elena?” Sarah called out as she eyed her, wondering what she was here to do.As Matthew heard her name, he rolled to the other side of the bed, trying to get a peek at the door to see if she was the one or not.“Sarah, who is there?” He called out, making Sarah clench her jaw.“What do you want?” Sarah questioned.Elena eyed her, feeling irritated and, at the same time, annoyed at her. She was here to see Matthew in the school clinic, not in one of their outings or any of their house again, so why was she acting so big?“Excuse me.” She said and pushed her out of the door, walking in and clashing with Matthew's eyes immediately.She felt her heart stop for a moment; the words she had rehearsed to say and how she would act jumped out of the window immediately. The door closed as Sarah entered, walking towards Matthew and taking a seat beside his bed.“Hey,” Elena called out quietly as Matthew stared at her, not knowing what to say.Her coming to check on him was a surprise to him, esp
“You look happy with her. I should meet her someday.” Matthew said.Elena's smile broadened on her lips as she felt herself easing towards him. She had just opened her mouth to say something when the door opened, and Sarah walked in, halting in her step and looking at both of them before walking towards them with the tray.“Here.” She said, placing it on Matthew's lap as she took her seat on the other side of the bed.Elena stood up, meeting Matthew’s eyes before looking at Sarah.“I’m glad you’re fine. I have to go now.” She said as she walked towards the door.Her heartbeat increased as she opened the door, shutting it quietly and closely before it went back to its normal rate again. She gulped down, closed her eyes, and leaned on the door. After ensuring she was calm enough, she opened her eyes only to meet the shock of her life.“What are you doing here?” She asked, moving away from the door.Silver eyed her, a smile threatening to break on her face anytime from now.“I know you’l
“So how do you plan on doing it?” Silver asked Elena as they got out of the car.They joined their hands together, rocking them back and forth as they walked to the locker room. As always, Elena stopped at her locker, turned the key, and opened it to meet a box of chocolate and a red heart waiting for her.“Sometimes, he makes it look like Xavier doesn’t like me in any way.” Silver muttered, rolling her eyes as she walked away.Her locker was just a few feet away from Elena’s own. She turned the key, opening it as her eyes widened in shock.“Elena,” she called out, a smile on her face.Elena walked to her, revealing her teeth because of what was placed in them. In her locker was a flower, some chocolates in a cute box in green, and a note.“Who’s making me feel like I’m not loved now?” Elena said and hit her playfully on the shoulder, walking back to her locker and picking up her book.Taking one of the chocolate and popping it into her mouth immediately, she closed her locker and mov
Matthew was pacing back and forth, his mind restless since he got away from the phone call he received from Silver. Silver was coming to his place suddenly, and he couldn’t help but grow suspicious about it.She only went to Elena’s place and sometimes came with Elena all the time she visited his place. He started getting suspicious of her right from this afternoon in the cafeteria when she asked if he would be at home in the afternoon. He had nowhere to go and was still recovering from his sickness, so he had told her yes, only for her to call some minutes back and say she was on her way to this place.His eyes roamed the entire room, making sure everything was neat, and he couldn’t help but scoff and chuckle in his own way.Why was he acting like his mum was bringing her friend to the house? Or his strict father that was bringing his male friend? He turned on the television and went to the kitchen, taking a bowl and serving himself the noodles he cooked as he got home.He had just r
“I’m sorry.” Elena said, opening her eyes and walking towards him. “I know I was at fault during the Sarah thing, interrupting your dates and doing things that clearly weren’t needed. I just didn’t like her with you, and it seems you two were getting too close.” She added, stopping some meters away from him. “I’m so sorry. I really missed you, talking to you, singing in the car with you, going out with you, and telling you about my new escapades. There was no one I could tell about my mum and the principal on call every morning, sending flowers to her twice in a week and even acting like a gentleman to her. And to be honest, I’m so tired of it.” Elena said. She heard a chuckle escape his throat, setting her heart at ease as she continued. “And Craig has been the nice boyfriend, I didn’t introduce you to him or tell you about him. I’ve heard his history before you come up with that, but he’s still trying his best to make us work.” “In
