Being Sebastian [A Sebastian/Viola & Olivia Story]
Chapter 6:
I walked into Anatomy with Danielle trying to muster up the best "I'm just fine" look on my face.
"Don't look at him...don't look at him." I told myself as I walked toward my seat. But just as I began to believe I was in the clear, my body disobeyed me and my blue eyes met his green. A look of guilt washed over his face and I felt like throwing up.
" I'm such an idiot for really believing he would change his mind about me." I silently thought.
As I approached the table he opened his mouth as if to speak but nothing came out.
"Okay class open your books to page 73 and read section 1 & 2 with your partner then complete the review and hand it in to me at the end of class. " I heard Mrs. Anderson say. I didn't even bother turning around...I just continued to stare at the boy who held my heart.
He kept opening and closing his mouth so I just pulled out my book and opened it to the page Mrs. Anderson said trying to act like everything that had happened between us didn't matter.
Sebastian glanced over to where Duke gave him a look that almost said "Talk to her you idiot."
I looked at him expectantly and unintentionally flipped my blonde hair away from my shoulder exposed the mark he had left on me two days before.
His eyes stared at that point before he took in a quick intake of breath and began to speak.
"Look Olivia we - " I didn't want him to finish. I knew what he was going to say and I wasn't going to let the guy I wanted so badly see that I cared at all. At least that was what Addison said to do. And finally for the first time I actually listened to her.
"I know Sebastian we were really drunk and we did things we probably shouldn't have done. Let's just forget it happened okay? Because I don't want to lose our friendship or have anything awkward between us over something stupid." I finished hoping my voice sounded believable.
Sebastian looked confused at first then smiled as if relieved. "Yeah sure Olivia...I don't want to lose this either." And just like that Saturday night was forgotten.
Soon we were back to our old selves again, doing what were supposed to but laughing and talking like nothing had even changed. But everything had. Every single time I watched his face light up or heard his laugh...My heart broke deeper and deeper than before.
Then just as the bell rang and I began to gather my stuff Sebastian brushed passed me along with his friends.
"You still owe me that dance though." I heard him say in my ear as he walked by...my body filling with emotions I wish I could escape.

Walking back to my dorm after my last class of the day I felt pretty good. Everything was slowly falling into place. Plus I didn't have to worry about losing the one girl I could really talk too.
Olivia surprisingly handled the whole situation a lot better than I expected, since I had been a complete asshole. But she had said that everything was fine and she didn't want to complicate things so I wasn't about to question her.
My thoughts were soon interrupted when I heard Sebastian being yelled from behind me.
I turned around and saw Caroline Cater walking toward me. I had to give it to the girl she knew how to flaunt what she had. She reminded me of Monique, my brother's ex/my at the moment ex, but slightly more obnoxious in the fact that she just didn't get the point that I wasn't interested.
"Hi Caroline. How can I help you?" I said, not even bothering trying to hide the bordem already etched in my voice.
"Well Sebastian, since I noticed that you were still on the market... I think that this thing between us can really take off if we let it." she explained slowly pushing her chest up probabley hoping it would push me to say yes.
I rolled my eyes. "Caroline thank you for the offer bu-"
"If this is about your little hook-up with Olivia, I think you guys are better off as friends, she's a little stuck up if you ask me and-" she started but I had already heard enough.
"Okay let me just stop you there...first, Olivia isn't stuck up and her and I's relationship is frankly none of your business. Second, if you concentrated less on trying to push your boobs in my face and more on the fact that this is never going to happen between us then it would save my time and your dignity." I finished. Seriously who did this girl think she was calling Olivia stuck up... she didnt even know her the way I did.
Caroline stood there her mouth agape. "You little..." She began.
My phone began vibrating in my pocket saving me from her explosion.
"Hold that thought will yah? " I said pulling out my phone.
"Hello?" I said.
"Um...Hi is this Viola?" the deep voice on the other end asked slowly.
"Who's asking?" I replied suspiciously.
"This is Mitchell Davis." the boy said.
Mitchell Davis ... Mitchell Davis? Who the hell is Mitchell Davis I thought silently as I looked at Caroline who was impatiently tapping her foot.
Then it hit me. Mitch Davis! The super hot St. Joseph's boy I had met the day before I started being Sebastian. I was surprised that I would forget his muscled body, dimpled cheeks, and perfectly messy dark brown hair.
"Um hello?" Mitch said.
"Yeah hold-on." I said . "Hey Caroline I think we should just reschedule this little shindig alright?" I asked turning around and walking into the men's room before she could even reply.
I checked under the stalls and after I made sure no one was inside I locked the door behind me.
"Hello Mitch." I finally said in my normal voice. It felt like ages since I had even heard it.
"Hey Viola...Sorry it took me so long to call...I wasnt sure if you were being serious with the whole call me in 2 weeks deal." He said relief showing in his voice.
I smiled to myself remembering just what I had said to him. I had given him my number that night and told him that if he remembered to call me in two weeks I would let him take me out.
"Don't worry you passed the test." I replied laughing.
"Alright good, I was beginning to worry after that guy answered that maybe you had given me a fake number." Mitch said also laughing.
Cute and honest... what an upgrade, I thought before replying. " Sorry about that...that was my brother."
"So this is your cell phone number then?"
"Yes indeedy it is."
"Alright good...so I was calling to just make sure that you were gonna keep up your end of the deal and let me take you out."
"Of course." I replied, almost too quickly.
"Cool how about Lula's cafe at 7 on friday?"
"Sounds good see you then?"
"Yeah, see you then Viola."
After hanging up I couldnt help but smile. Yep things were really looking up.
