I'm not even bluffing.
Anubis is really the best mistake I have ever made.
A mistake? Why?
Well, Maybe because I never intend to fall in love with Anubis. We were just best friends. A best friend I had, lost, fought, and gained. I trust him. When he protected me from that dog years ago, I thought he was the prince charming everyone might just die for. I never see him that way. He was just Anubis to me. My best friend. My friend. My homie.
We pulled away and we were both breathing hard, "Sadie.." Anubis breathe out.
"Yeah?" I did deep breaths, that was one hell of a kiss we did.
Anubis chuckled a bit, "That was... intense."
He was right. It was intense. He poured out everything into one kiss. The passion, anger, resentment, and more on the love page. I felt different after the kiss. I felt like the weight of everything was lifted of my shoulders. He was truly my best mistake.
Anubis pressed his forehead against mine and our noses touch, "I love you"
I didn't know what to say.
"A-Anubis..." Spit it out, Sadie!
"I love you, too."
Anubis gave me another kiss. I never felt this way. But, I just remember the other problem I have.
"Damn" I muttered after we broke away again. Anubis looked at me with concern.
"What is it?" he asks.
I held his hand and intertwined our hands. How can I possibly say this without feeling so betrayed? The guy who shows himself as the gentleman every girl dream of, shows his true colors without even knowing it, in front of the girl whom he trick into liking him.
"Riley" I muttered.
Anubis looks at me and uses his left hand to cup my face, his thumb caresses my cheek, "Don't think about him. It's just you and me right now."
I didn't meet his eyes, " I feel like I'm the backstabber right now."
"He started it." Anubis pointed out.
"I know but I-" Anubis cuts me off with a kiss.
" Don't bother. We can mess with him later. But right now.. just like what I said, it's just you and me."
And the moment felt like it could last forever.
Anubis pulled up into my drive way. He turns off the car and looks at me. I was looking out in the window, instead into his eyes.
"Sadie, look at me." Anubis says sternly. I did.
"Remember the Stage Fighting project?" Anubis grinned. I took the hint and look at him with shock.
"You're gonna meddle with our project? How?!" I slapped his shoulder playfully. I trust him, sure. But with that grin on his slap me on the head and call me Sheila.
"Take the lead. Re-write everything in your project. Then, I'll take care of everything." Anubis smiles at me. He takes both of my hands, "Trust me at this Sadie, you won't hurt him physically, cause your not like that, but you can take out all your frustration at him like he's a dummy. In this situation, he really is a dummy."
I laugh and jumped to hug him, which is hard since we're in the car, " You're a genius, Jackal Boy."
Anubis chuckles and rubs my forearm, "Nice to know that your sharp tongue is back."
After a month of careful planning, and having secret dates, the stage fighting project is now in full swing.
Secretly dating Anubis was hard, especially when everyone thinks Riley and I were together. Were not actually, a while back, while I make plans for him and I to practice for our stage fighting performance, he makes up an excuse for not practicing like, I had to do homework. I'm due tomorrow. My parent's are sick, I have to take care of them. The last time I check, Riley's parents were in New York for the opening of their new business. It's been weeks since the dance. While our secret dates consists of romantic stuff, the real topic there was our stage fighting revenge, with a side of hopeless romantic. Anubis is such a sweet guy, but he should tone down the PDA he shows off. Who knows who might spot us?
As I pass by Anubis locker, he was there shuffling stuff, he looks at me at the corner of his eyes and winks at me. I smirk at him back. Today is gonna be good.
And as if on cue, Riley arrives and wraps his right hand across my shoulders, "Hey"
I look at him with a sly grin on my face, "morning to you too."
"You look good." Riley compliments. I was just wearing a plain white tee with the print saying 'Got Mint?', with black jeans and black combat boots. I have streaks of midnight blue on my hair so I look a bit hipster.
I shrug, "I try."
As we walk, I try to concentrate the fact that I'm doing the stage fighting performance also for the big showcase. My dream was to compose my own songs and might as well compose an Album.
I'm super hyped.
"All right, all right!" Russ entered the room with Liam trailing behind him. Everybody sat down. I sat next to Riley with Anubis behind me.
"Let's start shall we?" Liam grinned and Russ nodded.
This is gonna be good. I thought as Chrissy and Daniel went up to the stage to start.
And I'm gonna end here! I guess you have to wait for the next chapter for the stage fighting scene. ;) and the story is almost going to end! Emergerd. Oh that imma tell you something is now, I'm currently writing another pjo/hoo story. Yes, another one. I CAN'T HELP IT THAT I JUST SEE RANDOM STUFF AND RANDOM IDEAS FOR STORIES HATCHES UP IN MY HEAD. And once I'm done with this story, I'll continue the other Sanubis chapter. Now, some of you guys might wonder... 'How the frick does this chick gets so many ideas?!" it's called I am so bored I have no life. Like I said, I got the inspiration of this story from an Anime picture, and for Protecting or Falling in Love? I got inspired by James Patternson's Maximum Ride, and for the same story, I have like the chapter, but it isn't done, so if you guys want a peek, ask me in my tumblr.
That's all for today.
Live. Love. Laugh. XOXO
