Dedicated to Alex, no matter how much of a twat you are I don't think I'll ever get you off my mind.
I walked into the classroom and sat casually next to one of my friends in the last row. "The bell's about to ring," I sighed internally while watching the clock. The teacher got up, but I was preoccupied by the guy that just walked in late. He acted normal and sat next to me. His face contorted into a very warm and charming grin that pulled me to him.
Coming to my senses that the teacher has begun taking I tried to focus. "Alright class, this September we're going to be focusing on literature. I mean real literature not those young adult novels like the Hunger Games and such," he spoke.
But after this, the direction of my concentration changed. "But I won't be awake during September!" The guy next me quietly groaned.
"Yeah, wake me up when September ends," I said as he turned to me with wide eyes.
"Thank you! Finally someone today knows what I'm talking about," he replied and I chuckled. "My name is Natsume."
"Mikan," I said smiling. After that we continued our conversation through the class laughing and forgetting the world together.
A few weeks later…
We had begun texting non stop and taking whenever we met. I was in paradise just being next to him. I was falling for him.
As I was looking for him I saw him heavily making out with a mutual friend of ours, Keirii. I didn't want to believe what I was seeing. This crushed me. So I walked to class, the one we had together, pretending I was okay. On the inside I was at war with myself. He didn't know, I doubt he even cared.
"Hi Natsume!" I said as he walked in and took his seat.
"Hey," he said smirking slyly.
"So I walked by you and Keirii, are you guys dating or…" I asked hoping he would fix everything for me.
"No, what you witnessed was just a perk of her being my friend with some benefits," he said as he turned his expression into a smile.
"Oh, okay. Good to know," I said smiling and hiding my pain. This is going to be one heck of a ride…
The next day…
I went to school only to witness Keirii balling her eyes out. I ran up to her. "What's wrong? What happened?" I asked terrified for her.
"It's Natsume, I found out he was only using me. He told me he loved me! I thought he wouldn't hurt me," she said as my heart only continued to shatter as I comforted her.
"I'm so sorry," I said squeezing her into my embrace. As much as I hate to say, this actually made me happy. Note to self, I have no chance.
To be continued.
So how was it? Please let me know you're uncensored honest opinion! But I think I'm going to end this story off here. Me and Alex are currently not too great of friends because of his behavior of using people and don't feel like encouraging that even if he doesn't know that I wrote this.
