Chapter 7

Aster was ticked by the deal Zane got him into, they soon arrived at Heather and her friends house in the city she was talking about. The drive was long and quiet and Aster mentally cussed Zane out the rest of the way. So far Zane had been keeping to the deal and was enjoying annoying him and it was driving Aster crazy.

"I'm going for a little walk ok." Aster told Heather.

"Ok." She said as her, Zane and her friends went into the mansion sized house.

Aster waited until he walked out of hearing range before deciding it was fine to talk.

"GOD!!!! ZANE IS SUCH AN ASS!!!!!" Aster yelled.

He kicked a rock in front of him on the ground.

"WHY DID HE HAVE TO GET ME INVOLVED IN THE STUPID BET!!!" Aster yelled once more.

He turned the corner and found himself outside of the city and decided to sit on one of the near by rocks.

"I hate him so much! He just doesn't listen! Zane's driving me crazy and yet...." Aster trailed off.

he stayed silent for a while looking out at the lush green forest that seemed so far away now.

"I'm so stupid, why do I feel this way about him? Why do I feel this way around him? He can make me so mad so fast but happy too...I guess I like it when we fight because it means his attention is on me." Aster said looking at the ground thinking.

He soon turned his attention to the sky and watched what he thought were birds fly by.

"What am I saying? I shouldn't feel this way about guys, but I just can't get him out of my mind anymore. I used to be able to, but now I can't stop thinking about him! It's as if every waking moment I spend during the day is completely focused on him and only him. He's in my thoughts, my mind, my dreams, he's everywhere. I can focus on my duels but then after them everything goes back to him. I think of the smallest things about him his smile, his eyes, the way he duels..." Aster sighed.

He looked back at the city and sighed again.

"I hate this feeling but I can't get rid of it nor do I want to get rid of it. But does he feel the same way about me?" Aster asked himself.

He looked back up at the sky that was now covered in thick grey clouds.


Zane kept looking back at the door expecting Aster to walk in at any moment. It was getting late and Aster should have been back already, it was worrying him to death because he wasn't sure if it was because of something he did or said or not.

"Worried?" A soft voice called from behind him making him jump in surprise.

"No! Why would I be worried?" Zane asked pretending to be angry after all it was only Heather.

"You're such a liar." Heather said laughing.

"I am not!" Zane argued.

"Really then why have you been staring at the door for like five hours?" Heather asked smirking.

"I..But...It...." Zane stuttered.

"Wow." Heather laughed.

"I'm not worried why would I be worried about Aster! Because I'm not." Zane said folding his arms across his chest.

"I asked if you were worried I never said anything about you actually being worried and I never said anything about Aster." Heather said smiling.

Zane turned bright red at Heather's comment.

"Oh, Um..." Zane trailed off.

Heather looked past Zane and watched the front door open slightly.

"And now it is time for me to take my leave." Heather said bowing.

"What do you mean?" Zane asked turning around to look where she was looking and then turned to say something to her but she was gone.

Zane was confused but turned around to see Aster walk in and close the door.

"Where were you!?" Zane hissed.

"Why do you care?" Aster countered.

"Never mind, I'm not about to argue with you right now because I don't want lose that bet I made with Kaleb." Zane argued.

"FINE! RIGHT NOW IT SEEMS LIKE YOU'RE MORE INTO THAT DAMN BET THEN ANYTHING ELSE!!!" Aster yelled and then stormed off.

Zane blinked.

"Were you two fighting?" Kaleb asked as she down at him from her place on the stairs.

"No we weren't fighting it was just a little arguement on where he was." Zane said.

"You two aren't going out and yet you fight like a married couple." Kaleb said smiling.

"We do not." Zane argued with her.

"Fine say what you like,but I think you should talk to him." She told him.

"Why?" Zane asked.

"Because even if you don't like him I think he likes you." She said smiling.

"Aster like me? that'll be the day." Zane huffed.

"I'm just saying the fact that he wanted to go for walk as soon as we got here right after you made that bet with me and didn't even come back until it started getting stormy out because he was probabley pissed off at you is proof enough to me that he likes you." She said.

"Trust me he doesn't like me." Zane said.

"Have you ever asked him?" Kaleb asked.

"No." Zane said defeated.

"Then how would you know? from where I'm sitting it's you who is making him mad in the first place." She said.

Zane was silent and looked down at the ground.

"I know you like him but you don't act like it so why should he? Just think about that alright." Kaleb said as she got up and went back to her room.

Zane was still looking at the ground thinking. He realized that Kaleb had gone back to her room so he decided to go back to his room at the very end of the hall.

"Does Aster like me? I love him, but I just don't know how to show it I guess." Zane said as he laid down on his bed and feel asleep.
