Chapter 14
Tonight is Friday, and if anyone could remember it’s the King’s College test game.
So yes, I remember the douche’s invitation because he was there at my school today waiting for me at the gate after school.
Indeed I was a master of the hiding and seek game.
I have hidden in the bathroom for 2 hours, and once everyone is gone and his car was still there.
I sneak at the back gate and climb over it.
Then call my dad to pick me up from the back gate.
Smoothly how it goes, I was never caught by him or the minions that he has brought.
My mom isn’t at home yet as she was also doing overtime.
After my dad brought me home and left for his duties.
I sat on my bed, reading my book on the phone.
I heard a noise outside of my window, and out of the blue Gia knocked at my window, scaring the shit out of me.
“What the hell Gia?
I went and open up the window, only to laugh at how her legs are still attached to the branch of the tree near my room, and both her hands on the window pane.
“Surprisingly to see the principal here at my window,” I joke.
“Would you help me?
” She struggled to climb up.
I helped her inside, “you’ve been MIA from school,” I point out to her.
“So I was sick.
“Are you sure about that,” I folded my arms, but she just sat there on the floor, rolling her eyes at me.
“So tell me, why exactly are you here?
Shouldn’t you be resting at home?
She dusted her clothes, “is that how you miss your friends.
I’m hurt,” she fakes it, “I thought you miss me?
“Are you kidding me, I was at school alone.
” I counterpart making her laugh.
“Pssh liar, anyways, we can argue later, but right now we have somewhere to go to,” she marches towards my closet pulling out clothes
“Okay, what are you doing?
“We’re going to the game tonight?
“What game?
” She threw me a pair of mini shorts and a top.
“The football game that everyone in our school is going to.
“I refuse to go.
“Oh come on, everyone is going to be there, now get your ass up.
You can’t miss their test match tonight.
Please.
She pushes me towards the bathroom with clothes in my hands, but I move past her and grab a black distressed belted denim dress and a pair of white sneakers.
There is no point in fighting with my friends when it comes to this kind of stuff, especially when they beg you to do it for them.
“So how are we gonna get there?
” I said after getting ready.
She blinks her eyes like those innocent children.
“Can’t we use your car?
“Hoi, it’s my dad’s car, not mine, and I don’t have a license.
“Please, we have to go to this game, and I’ll drive the car since I have a license.
” she pleaded to pout her lips
“Fine, we’ll use his rover,” I grabbed the keys from my drawer, and we went to the game.
We made our way there, instead of Kings College, we went to Bilford.
“I thought were going to the games.
“We are, it’s Bilford vs King’s College.
” I felt myself shrink into an ant-man.
Alera all of a sudden whistled in my head, “hmmm too many hotties for us.
“OMG, finally you’re back, I thought you’ll never going to appear again.
She winces, “what?
Wolfs can have a vacation too from their shithead mates” I laugh to myself.
“Agree.
Gia pulls over to the parking lot which is now filled with the crowd.
She did a final retouching to her make-up while I just check my lipstick then we both head out.
I hear whistles around us, but we kept on moving towards the bleachers.
“Wait, I have to say hi to someone first,” Gia drag me with her.
It was too crowded, so I kept bumping into other people and saying, I’m sorry every time I did so.
Then I could smell his scent so I just froze, but Gia just forces me to move.
“Hey, Jay.
She pulls me towards the Bilford college football team boys.
‘Since when did she say hi to Jay,’ I am confused now.
Matteo’s presence has long been forgotten, as my mind is set on my best friend and his best friend.
“I came to wish you, babe, good luck, and I’m going to watch from the bleachers,” she kisses him on the cheek.
“Woah, babe,” again I slap myself, I’m lost here.
She kisses him on his lips, my mind going round and round, confused as hell.
“And what are you doing here?
” Matteo asks me, his familiar voice sending millions of butterflies to my stomach, but I try my best to ignore him.
“To watch like everybody else,” I retort.
“Oh my, you finally came.
Alera and I wanted to disappear when we heard that voice.
Kevin moves quickly in my direction and hugs me out of nowhere.
I tried to push him off, “now I have a reason to kick your ass guys,” he said towards Jay and Matteo who now looked unhappy.
“Oh my, when did you guys start dating?
” Gia jumps up with excitement.
I remove Kevin’s arms from my shoulders.
“We are not dating,” Alera forces her way to take control of my body and words, which she successfully did so.
“Yes, it may not be right now, but she’s my future.
She shook her head, “there is no future for you and me,” Alera retort to him.
Everyone thinks it’s me, but no, it wasn’t me at all now.
Matteo looks with a smirk at the embarrassing Kevin.
“Oh, hello there,” she calls to a random kid who turns to point to himself,
“Me,” he gulps, “Yes, dear.
I remembered him from the mall.
He was the one who runs into me.
“what’s your name pretty boy,” everyone’s jaws dropped, and the kid blinks while I just shoot myself a thousand times.
Alera surely is trying to make Matteo jealous which I could see she is doing a great job at it.
“Ed,” he stutters.
“Oh, Ed, I feel you’re somehow the son of Edward Cullen,” she flirted
“I’m Adassah,” damn her for using my poor name.
“Shall we?
” And she held onto his arm, forcing the poor guy to go with us without asking whether he’s fine with it.
“Gia, are you coming or not?
” Gia quickly pecks Jay on the cheek and leads us to the bleachers.
My whole night at the game was spent with Alera taking over control while I just watch from the back of our minds.
I only hope she won’t ruin this night for the both of us and keep ourselves as far away from our mate.
