Audrey's POV
I yawned and stretched my hands when the second teacher rounded up his lectures, took his books and left the class.
It was somewhat stressful maybe because Kyle and I haven't talked-fun today at all like we've always done.
As soon as I got to class today, the first teacher came in and began to teach and immediately she was done, the second one came in.. Now he just left and the third teacher is yet enter into the class.
"Hey Kyle" I faced him playfully.
"Wait, I notice you've been putting on a gloomy face throughout the first two classes" I told him.
"I'm alright " He said sheepishly.
I disbelieved him yet I acted like i believed him.
"Is there a problem with your mom? " He asked me.
"Not really but she doesn't want me to go to ERR anymore"
"Why? " He blurted.
"Ever since she saw that Man Mr Gary yesterday, she has been feeling so uncomfortable and she didn't tell me the reasons" I told him.
"Oh so where else will you work? "
"I don't know but Kyle, you would also need to stop working at ERR because I'm no longer gonna work there"
"No I won't, instead I'll continue. I'll receive your pay and give it to you" He said and I smiled. I don't know why he is so kind, and doing all this for me.
"Thank you Kyle" I muttered.
He nodded and turned behind him to see Simon who was alone on his seat staring at us. And his cheerleaders weren't with him.
"One more thing Audrey" He took his glances away from Simon and returned them back to me.
"What is it? " I asked him curiously.
"I really meant it when I said we should avoid Simon" He said.
"Yeah, we already are avoiding him" I said.
"I know but let's make it totally" He said holding my hands and intertwining it with his. Gosh! This is so unlike me, I'm only listening to his wish.
"Ye..ah" I stammered.
But how on earth is that gonna be possible?
I'm not the kind of person who loves to keep malice like him.
Yeah I actually love making friends and besides how can I totally avoid someone I have a crush on?
Can he do the same, can he avoid his so-called anonymous crush?
Well... There's nobody he can't give silent treatment to..
"Oh good, he won't even find you since you will no longer work at ERR" He muttered to himself.
Then the third teacher came in to do his thing. Before we knew it, it was time for lunch break. Kyle and I stood up to leave the class, Elena ran towards us... I told her to join us before Kyle could even speak. So we left the class together.
We went to the canteen together and Kyle repeated it to innocent Elena not to buy him lunch and I also told him not to buy mine. Elena is only being nice to us.
I bought two snacks, it's the little I can afford with the little money I've got. Kyle bought the same with his own money while Elena bought a smoothie and three sausages. What else were you expecting? Well, what we had for lunch today could even categorise our background.
Simon and his entourages were at the cafeteria too. Each time I try to steal a glance at Simon. Our eyes would always meet.. So I just tried avoiding him because it was becoming awkward for me.
"Has anyone of you heard about Dharc? " Elena broke the silence.
Yeah, Dharc.. Sounds familiar..Oh Kyle once told me about him.
"I..
He just started singing about four months ago and he's already famous" Kyle said.
"Yeah, so famous to an extent that you already know him" Elena remarked.
"So why do you ask about him?" I asked.
"Oh that. He is my uncle" She said -not boastfully.
"Really?? " We exclaimed...opening our mouths in a awe.
"He is. Have you seen him before? Should I show you a picture of the both of us? " Elena took her phone off the table.. While Kyle and I stared at her, amused.
"Here" She showed us a picture of her and a guy with their cheeks touching eachother. So this is the celebrity they're talking about. I don't know him nor how he looks like.. Elena is so lucky to have a celebrity in her family.
"He is the one, This ain't photoshop" Kyle blurted.
"I never knew you had an uncle that is into music" He said as he suddenly got interested. Gosh! A very big lover of musicm
"And I never knew my favorite uncle loves singing, not untill he released his first debut last months" Elena said, smiling.
"Wow... " Kyle said.
"Err... Guys, I need to go to the restroom" I stood up and told them in form of a permission.
"Alright, we'll be here waiting for you" Kyle said and I left them alone and went to the restroom. I needed to use the loo as soon as possible.
I got to the restroom, did my thing..washed my hands inside the sink and I made use of the tissues and hand dryer.
I stared into the rectangular mirror.. Staring at myself through it for an unknown reason probably admiring my beautiful self.
No, I'm staring at the mirror this way because i have none as big as this in my room at home.
The last time I viewed myself through the mirror was at ERR restaurant.. Yeah, at the restroom too.
"Uhm, before some girls start entering and thinking I'm insane. I better stop acting weird and leave already" I said to myself and took one more glance at the mirror before walking out of the restroom.
I haven't taken more steps further when I saw Simon walking towards where I was.
"Hey Audrey" He said.
Uhn? What's he doing here?
Didn't he realize that this is a female restroom?
"You are in a female restroom Simon" I told him.
"Okay then, come with me" He said.. holding my hands.
"To Where? " I asked him.
"Just come " He said and we ran out of the restroom together.
He didn't stop pulling my hand untill we got to the school back-yard.
"No one would find us here " He said and I breathe kinda heavily.
"Why did you bring me here? didn't you say we shouldn't talk to eachother here except when we are out of school?" I asked him, folding my hands.
"That's why I brought you here. Instead of wasting a whole while of time avoiding eachother just because I don't want other people to see us together. We can simply come here and talk all we want alone" Simon said and smiled.
He is smiling at me ¿
Oh no, I'm not gonna smile back at him.
"Uhm well, I... I already decided never to talk to you both in school or outside" I rolled my eyeballs.
"Is that your decision or Kyle's own?" He asked.
"Our decision" I scorned at him wanted to walk away but he pulled me by hand.
"Audrey, Please let's stop pretending" He said.
Huh? "Pretending about what? " I asked him.
He moved closer to me and I walked backward. We were burrowing into eachother's eyes with only our eyes.
Soon, I was resting my back on the wall and he was already close to me.
"Pretending about what? " I asked again but stammering this time.
Why was I stammering? Is it because he was really close to me or because of the serene look in his eyes.
My heart was already racing and I could even hear his beating.
"That we like Eachother" He said.
"What.. I... I...I don't.. " I stammered not knowing what to say exactly besides I was speechless. His lips interrupted me from saying more I - I - I
He was brushing his lips against mine, he was kissing me!!
It's so sudden.. I least expected it from him.
I didn't reciprocate nor stopped him.
I just stood there like a statue, enjoying the unexpected ecstasy, the sensation and the taste of his lips.
But I don't like Simon's secret idea.
