Love Journey

12. The Question

Samantha Eden

He is here, and not just here, he is in my class, my lab partner, How the hell did this happen, I think as I walk quickly to Denise's car, he was supposed to be a distant memory. Okay that's a lie, I do think about him and relive the flight, but I didn't want this. Why must he always look so good, I think feeling the sting from my fall, I know he didn't want my number to just meet up he probably thinks I'm like any other girl he has played. I saved my name as 'Sam' because I am in a hurry and typing out all my name would have taken too long, I convince myself nodding.

"Look pretty boy lab partner", Denise teases when I get into the car,

"Shut the fuck up, it's your fault"

"MEEEEEEE? Come on you know you wanted to work with him I just made your dreams come through" she's a little right, "What wanna talk bout?"

"Nothing" I answer quickly,

"You are such a damn liar, I saw him talking"

"Yea HE was talking not me" he asked a few questions about the work but I didn't even answer,

"You are such a bitch, he just trying to be friends" she says driving towards the exit,

"I don't want to be his friend" I argue, I want nothing to do with him, kinda,

"You right you wanna be his GIRL friend"

We are almost out of the school when we see him walking,

"Wanna give him a ride?"

"NO!" before I could finish she is half way out of the window,

"TROY! YOU WANT A DROP" I almost die when he looks back at us and smiles, I swear his smile is a work of God, it is the most perfect display, a bit smug and a bit cocky but mostly sexy as fuck.

"Nah I'm cool!" he shouts back,

"Ok!" she pulls herself back into the car "Damn" she finishes as she sucks her teeth much to my pleasure.

Denise wants to hang but I tell her I have to start writing up my lab, we both know I just want to go home and talk to him. I toss my bag on the floor and peel my clothes off. I always hate these long days, I am drained when I get home and now I'm sore since Troy took it upon himself to knock me down, I was going to ask him what was his problem but I never got the chance to ask. I check my phone, the only messages I have are from the girls, I was hoping to find at least one message from him, Maybe he isn't home yet, yeaaaa... I convince myself.

I decide to get some food and to do some work, this way I wasn't lying when I told Denise that's what I'm going to do. My mother made spicy wings and pasta, the days my mother cooks it is lit. I pile my plate with food and sneak past my mother's closed door. I close my bedroom door behind me quietly, my mother hates to see me eating in my bedroom. I lay my books out on the floor and make myself comfortable, and begin to write up the lab. It is going great until I get to the results he wrote for me, his handwriting is almost illegible, Guess everything about him isn't perfect. Hours go by and I am beginning to think he really just wants my number for work. Around 9:30 I am almost finished my lab with just two questions left, which is great since it is due in two days.

Unknown Number: Hi

Unknown Number: Was that ride from you or her? If it was from her say thanks for me and if it was from you I'm sorry

I save his name as 'Troy🙄'

Sam😈😻: It was from her.

Troy🙄: Oh, well tell her thanks

Troy🙄: It was nice seeing you today 😁I never expected to see you again

At the top of my screen I see the groupchat pop up at the top of the screen,

Big Daddy Nic😋: Where is Sam?

Daddy Denis 🍆🍆: Probs busy talking to Troy 😏👀

Aye😝: That shit was so funny she looked like she died😂

Daddy Denis🍆🍆: Was for the best tho her lonely ass needs some love

Sam😈😻: Y'all do know I can see this?

Sam😈😻: And no I'm not talking to Troy

Daddy Denis 🍆🍆: Oh yes you are

Sam 😈😻: If you by my window again I'm coming out there and kill you

I roll my eyes and go back to him,

Sam😈😻: Yea I didn't expect to see you either

Troy🙄: But you're happy to see me aren't you?

Sam😈😻: Ammm no, why would I care about seeing you again?

Troy🙄: Right, right whatever you say😏

Troy🙄: I hope you can understand what I wrote

Sam😈😻: Barely but I did

Troy🙄: Let me call you and explain

Sam😈😻: Don't call me I understand it

Troy🙄: I'm calling to make sure

Sam😈😻: I know what it says!

Sam😈😻: If you call me I won't answer

Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna be....

Kehlani's voice fills my room, I sing along ignoring him, he calls again after hanging up, my patience is wearing thin but it stops ringing again, but the persistent ass boy calls again,

"What!" I answer

"I thought you weren't going to answer" he chuckles,

"Well since you want to be annoying" I reply sitting on the bed,

"Luckily you did I was about to give up, but third time's the charm" his low voice fills my ear,

a broad smile crosses my face, his voice is so divine, like an angel singing, well maybe I'm exaggerating " I have a question, why do you hate me so much?"
