Chapter 3
A Complete Weirdo
I gazed up from my book that I was reading to see my sister huffing at me. Her teal hair that waved around as she chattered on about how her boyfriend is messing up her mind was driving me insane. I didn't actually care whether she ended up crying or made up with her boyfriend because I had enough problems on my plate.
"Luka! Have you been listening at all?" she asked me before she came towards me and snatched the book away from my hands. I glared at her before I sighed and shrugged at her. She just wouldn't stop talking. She glared at me before she took the book and stormed out of my room. I sweat dropped; what was her problem anyway?
I was about to walk out of the room to go and get my book back when I heard my mother yelling for me downstairs. I sighed to myself before I jogged down the stairs and head to the kitchen where she was. Looks like my book had to wait. I saw my mother laughing a bit at someone before I focused my attention at- him.
"Ah! There you are, look how sweet he is. He came here right after work just to see you," my mother smiled at him before I displayed a fake smile. I looked at Kaito who just smirked at me and had that mischief gleam in his eyes. Something was terribly wrong with that dude's brain. Someone, please get him a doctor.
"I see, unfortunately I'm going out," I told my mother with a fake sigh. My mother just frowned at me before she looked at Kaito. Out of nowhere, suddenly she proposed a stupid idea that evens me; I could seriously kill her for.
"How about bringing Kaito out with you then. He came here just to see you, so better not disappoint him," she smiled up to me warmly before I looked at my mother like she was crazy. I tried to hold myself back from letting my jaw fall but the fact that Kaito only smirked at me made me redraw my steps. I sighed loudly before I walked out of the kitchen and walked to the front door. I heard footsteps shortly followed me.
I opened the front door and walked out of the house and to the outside world. I could hear the footsteps still followed me. I decided to just ignore him for the rest of the day. Who cares if he came here just to see me? I bet he was trying to rub it in my face the fact that my life will be ruined if I denied marrying him. Before I decided on where to go, my phone rang. I quickly took out my phone and answered it.
"Hey, Luka! It's me, Len!" and my face lightened up. It's Len! He's my best friend since we were in kindergarten. It's been so long since I heard his voice and to just hear him now, man it's nerve-wrecking. Did I mention he's my secret crush? Yes, he's my secret crush.
"Hi!" I exclaimed a bit before I heard a slight cough at the back. I turned around and saw Kaito was standing there and looked at around him, trying to avoid my eyes. I rolled my eyes at him and just decided to talk to Len like he never existed.
"Wanna hang out today?" he asked suddenly as I choked on my saliva. I could feel my face heat up a bit before I nodded. Wait- he couldn't see me.
"Yes! I mean, yeah, sure, meet you at the park in another five minutes?" I asked before I heard a slight chuckle from the other side. He agreed before our conversation ended. I noticed some stares where burning into me before I looked at Kaito who was just staring at me. I looked at him back before I rolled my eyes again and started to walk to the park. Wait- Len's going to be there. He's going to ask who Kaito was, what should I do then?
"Uhm…it's nice of you to come and see me and all, but I have to meet someone so if you would excuse me-"
"Why can't I come then?" he cut me off and started to walk in front of me. My eyes became wide before I followed behind him trying my best to get rid of him.
"B-Because you- wouldn't like him! Yeah," I told him before he stopped walking. He placed both of his hands inside his pocket and turned around. He looked at me sharply and there were no trace of mischievous gleam in his eyes. There were dead serious. That made me gulp slowly before I took some safety precautions like stay one step away from his; just in case.
"Him? It's a boy?" he questioned before I mentally slapped myself. Of course he would catch that word! He's a- gosh why was it so hard to just ask him to get lost? I just sighed and nodded at him before I walked ahead of him.
"And you expect me to go away?" he questioned again before he followed me but the tone he was using, you could actually guess he wasn't in any mood to go away. Okay, so maybe he had every right to be cautious because I was going to be his wife- but seriously; we weren't in love so he shouldn't be this close.
"Yes. Go away; I don't need your weird attitude rubbing in his face. He'll run away," I smirked at myself before I saw him. Len! He was already waiting for me at the park. I couldn't help but to smile widely before I ran towards Len. I didn't know if Kaito was following or not but the fact that I liked the way Len was illuminating under the sun was so mesmerizing.
"Len!" I yelled at him as he looked at me from his phone. He smiled up to me and that was the very moment my heart skipped a beat. I could hear a slight groan from someone but decided to just ignore him.
"Hey- oh, you brought company?" he smiled up to me before he pointed at Kaito. I sighed and looked behind me to see Kaito looked as annoyed as ever. I could say that he was a stalker but then, from the look on his face; better not to make him mad. I just nodded at him before Len smiled.
"Hi, I'm Len. You are?" he held out his hand before Kaito looked at him and smiled. He took his hand and shook it as well but something in his eyes was- threatening.
"I'm Kaito and I am your friend's husband," was all he needed to say before Len's eyes went wide and I began to panic. I looked at Kaito like I saw a ghost before Len just smiled up slowly and looked at me weirdly. I could see that he was going to need a long explanation. I just shrugged at him before he nodded.
"So, I have to tell you something, Luka," suddenly Len said before he beamed a smiling face at me but there was something in his eyes that told me I wasn't going to like what he was about to tell me. I looked at Kaito who just looked at me blankly before he walked over to the park bench and slumped there. I couldn't help but to notice that Kaito was actually giving us space. I cleared my thoughts before I refocused at Len.
"What is it?" I asked him before Len sighed and he ran his fingers through his hair. He took a deep breath before he told me.
"How do you make…a girl stop being angry at you?" he suddenly asked me before I felt my face fell and my confusion arose. What? I tilted my slightly before he noticed the way I looked at him. He blushed a bit before he opened and closed his mouth like he wanted to tell me something.
"What's wrong, Len?" I asked him before he messed up his hair in frustration.
"Please-please don't be angry at me, but…I and Miku are a couple now," and my heart stopped beating. I felt like my whole world crashed. I looked at him with round eyes. I searched through his eyes if he was joking and to my dismay; he wasn't.
"And Miku got angry at me for something I did- that's why I need your advice," he explained to me before I took a step back. I looked at him for a while before any trace of emotions left my face. Something in me just died, and I have a feeling it'll hurt me even more. Len looked at me and I knew it deep inside that he didn't know how I felt.
"O-Oh, no, of course I wouldn't be angry at you, Len! Uhm…just give her a present, like a leek, s-she'll be happy- excuse me," I couldn't handle being there so I took off. I ran off from the park. My eyes became blurry as I ran far away until I came to a stop. It looked like the town square but I didn't care. The next thing I knew, I was crying. Tears slid from cheeks and I couldn't help but to sob.
I heard footsteps ran up to me but I wasn't in any mood to look at anyone. I just cried. Suddenly, out of the blue, I felt a pair of arms turned me around and made sure I was against someone's chest. He hugged me tight as he kissed my head and placed his chin on my head. I hugged him tighter as his cologne hit me. It was Kaito.
He was hugging me, and comforting me as I just cried.
"I'm here," he whispered slowly before I hugged him even tighter. I didn't know what I was doing but the fact he was here just made me happy. After a while I released from him and wiped my tears. I didn't dare to look at him; scared if he'll make fun of me.
I looked down on the ground as I sniffed slowly. I felt one of his hand took my chin and made me look up to him. I was shocked to see how mesmerized his eyes were. They weren't cold or evil; but they were warm and soft. That blue ocean eyes never seemed so calm before. I was about to say something when I felt his lips over mine.
He kissed me again! But this time, his lips just stayed there. I didn't know what came over me but I kissed back. The way our lips would mash up together was perfect. I loved it. Yeah, I actual- wait what?! I loved it?! He released me slowly before he smiled at me. I couldn't help but to blush like crazy.
"Are you okay?" he questioned me before I looked at him. I nodded at him slowly before he sighed. I rolled my eyes at him before he smirked.
"Since we're in town, want to get something to eat?" he asked before he started to walk to a restaurant. I smiled slowly before I followed him. He took my silence as a yes before we made ourselves inside.
"S-Seriously?" I laughed aloud as he smirked at me. I was just chewing on some candies while we walked around the town. After that incident, Kaito was doing a great job trying to keep me happy. And guess what? It worked.
"Well, maybe we should get home now," Kaito said slowly as he looked up to the sky. I did the same too and I noticed how the sky was turning a beautiful orange. I nodded at him before we walked slowly to my house. It was silent all the way there; suddenly, but the silence was so comfortable that neither of us wanted to speak.
"You know, you're still a jerk," I stated before he looked at me. I could see his mischievous glow was back in his eyes. He smirked at me before he shrugged.
"It's in my blood, honey," he cooed before I tried to hide my face from turning red. We finally reached my house. I walked to the door as he followed slowly. I was about to open the door when I felt a tug on my shoulder. I turned around slowly before I was pushed to the door and his face came near mine.
My eyes went wide to register what was happening before he kissed my nose. My face illuminated redness before he chuckled.
"See you around, love," was all he said before he walked out again and to his car. I stared at what had happened before I hurriedly opened the door and went inside. I slammed the door shut and ran up clumsily to my room. I went inside and the first thing I did was close the door shut and climb on the bed.
My face was so red! To be honest, today I saw another side of him. Another side which I never thought I knew existed. I slowly traced my fingertips to my lips. That kiss still lingered there. I couldn't help but to smile at myself.
Maybe I'll take him as a friend.
Yes, A FRIEND.
Did you really think I like him, did you?
He's still a jerk and a possessive bastard! But today, maybe I'll name him as a complete weirdo.
So, what do yo guys think? Hope you guys liked it! Let me know what you guys think! Till' we meet again! ^^
