CHAPTER 15

~*~

Because there is only one I want to look at.

Wait... Did I just say I'm gay?

"Guys!"

Gab and I parted from each other and looked at someone who called us. It was Tobi.

He's walking in our direction. He's all wet. What the hell on earth happened to him?

"Hey, what happened to you? Why are you all wet?" I asked him, bewildered as I got up from lying. Gab also got up.

"Damn! I broke the faucet in the comfort room! Tch!"

"You broke... What?" Gab and I reacted, and we laughed.

"Damn, bro! You're in trouble!" Gab commented while laughing.

Tobi's face shows anxiety. His face is funny.

"Why did it get broke? What did you do?" I asked.

"Trust me, bro. I didn't do anything. I mean, I carefully turned on the faucet but it suddenly broke. Tss! It's a good thing the janitor came. He helped me fix it."

"So, it's settled already. Go change your shirt. It’s like you got soaked in the rain.” Gab.

"I don't have an extra shirt anymore. Do you have one? Let me borrow it."

"Nope. I don't have an extra shirt either." I refused. Well, I don't really have an extra shirt. We didn't plan to do it.

Tobi looked at Gab and was about to speak, but Gab spoke up first. "Me too."

He heaved and sighed. "What an unlucky day this is."

"Wait. What if you borrow a shirt from one of our seniors? I mean, they have shirts right there in the locker room. Get one." I suggested.

"Nah. You know our seniors. They are very fierce. Maybe later, we’ll get into trouble because I took a shirt from them without asking permission."

"Come on, dude! They have a lot of shirts in there. Besides, they are not here, they won't know it." Gab added.

"Right! You'll also return it tomorrow morning."

"Are you guys sure?"

"Of course!" Gab and I answered in the chorus.

"Come on, let's go to the locker. You need to change your shirt because we're going somewhere." Gab said while smiling, looking at me. We both nodded our heads.

"Where?"

JAKE's POV

"Whoah! You really bake this for me?" I was touched when I opened the box that Elle gave me.

The two of us are currently in my house, on the balcony. After I read her text to me earlier, I immediately called her and picked her up at their house.

"Yup. I baked them for you. You didn’t come, so I thought of making them for you."

I looked at her. "You're really amazing, Elle. Thanks." I gave her a sweet smile and she smiled back at me.

"Nah, don't mention it. You helped me yesterday, so, I want to thank you. By the way, where did you go today?”

It took me a few seconds to answer her question. Where did I go? Well, I can't tell her the real reason.

"Dad just ordered me to import something so I wasn’t able to go. Sorry."

"Oh, I see. No, it's fine. I completely understand." She smiled.

"Thanks," I smiled back at her.

"Yup. Come on, taste the cookies I made for you." She giggled.

"Yeah." I took a piece and I tasted it. As I expected, the cookie tastes amazing.

"How is it?" She asked me confidently.

I chuckled. "You already know my answer."

She giggled. "I want to hear it still."

"Of course, it tastes amazing."

"Really?"

I nodded my head. "Really!"

She giggled, happiness was really visible on her face. "Eat a lot. That is all for you."

"I'll definitely eat them all."

We both laughed a little.

Ah! My day is complete now because of her.

TOBI's POV

"Are you really guys sure about this?" I asked Zed and Gab when we were already inside the locker room, standing in front of the closet of our seniors.

I'm nervous about what we're going to do. We are not very close to the seniors and they are also strict when it comes to their belongings, so it might be a big mess when they find out that someone borrowed clothes from them without letting them know.

"Come on! Stop having second thoughts. This is the only choice you have right now. Besides, you'll return it tomorrow morning." Zed convinces me.

"Yeah. Hurry and get one of their shirts. So we can leave." Gab added.

Tss. They are both really serious.

Is there anything I can do?

"Ok, ok, ok."

[NIGHT HAS COME]

LUKEWEYNN's POV

I went back to my office after I inspected the new materials that arrived. I walked to my swiveling chair and I caught sight of a midnight blue polo on the sofa.

Oh, he left it.

A small smile slipped on the corner of my lips, as I shook my head. I walked towards the sofa, took his polo, and sat down.

I looked at the polo and I couldn't help but smile. Well, it's fun to tease that kid because he's really pissed off every time I tease him.

All of a sudden, my phone rang. I took it out of my pocket and looked at who was calling.

It was my mother.

"Hello, mum," I answered her call.

"Hey, my son. What are you up to? Have you been busy these days?"

Looks like I got the reason for her call.

"Yeah. Kind of. I take care of a lot of things. Why, mum?"

"I understand. But please make a way to reply to Gianna's messages to you. Don't make her wait. You’re embarrassing us.”

I knew it. I wasn't wrong.

I sighed. “Look, mum..."

"Yes, you have." She cut me off. Yeah, because he already knows what I'm going to say.

"I trust you on this, my son. So, please... don't embarrass us even just once."

I didn't respond, instead, I sighed in annoyance.

"By the way, we're going home soon. See you soon, my son. I love you.”

"Okay. See you, mum. I love you too.” Then I hung up the call.

They are going home soon. I need to get married.

TOBI's POV

/We could let our friends crash in the living room

This is our place, we make the call

And I'm highly suspicious that everyone who sees you wants you

I've loved you three summers now, honey, but I want 'em all/

/Can I go where you go?

Can we always be this close forever and ever?

And ah, take me out, and take me home.

You're my, my, my, my

Lover/

The three of us are now at the bar, drinking beer. Jake is not here with us. We have been calling him but he does not answer our calls.

Where did he go? He seems so busy, huh?

"Hey, guys. Do you see what I see?" Gab asked me and Zed.

Zed and I looked in the direction he was looking. He looked at the groups of women who were also drinking at the other table.

"I saw. Hmm. What are you thinking about, huh?" I asked, lifting my brows slightly.

"What else? They've been looking at us. I think they want to make friends with us." He looked at us. "Come on, guys. Let's approach them."

Zed scoffed. "Dude, they look older than us. It's kinda... Uncomfortable."

"I agree. And one more thing, I have no interest in them because I'm only interested in one woman." I added while smiling. My heart only belongs to Jasmine.

"Tss. Jasmine is also older than you, eh?" Gab raised his eyebrows at me.

"Age doesn't matter, bro."

"Exactly! Age no longer matters now, so let's go. Let's go to them and make friends. So that our night here won't be boring."

"As I said, I'm not interested. I'm faithful." Chuckling, I drank beer.

"Faithful, my ass. Tss." He looked at Zed. But before he could speak, Zed spoke.

"Pass,"

"Seriously, guys?"

Zed and I just shrugged our shoulders.

"Tss. I'll go alone then." He got up from his seat and walked in the direction of a group of women.

"Should we follow him?" Zed asked me while looking at Gab.

"Nah. Let him. We're totally here to enjoy ourselves. Let's just drink. He'll be back here later." I said, and I drank a beer.

"Tss. Why does he have to go there? The women there are not that... beautiful." Zed murmured, averting his eyes from Gab.

I laughed a little. "They're beautiful, but Jasmine is more beautiful than them."

"You're really in love with Jake's sister, huh?"

"Of course. I'll be forever in love with her." I was thrilled while saying that.

Damn! I'm really thrilled when she’s the one I’m talking about. I felt like I was lying in a cloud.

I'm corny, I know. I'm just in love.

"Calm down. Your ears are already red. Keep an eye on him. I’ll just go to the comfort room."

"Yeah, sure. Hurry. I don't want to be alone here."

"Yeah. Be right back."

He stood up from sitting and walked to the comfort room area.

I was left alone here in our place. Tss. I watched Gab as he happily chatted with the women at the other table.

He is enjoying himself, huh?

Okay. Enjoy it there a lot, bro.

I continue drinking, thinking about Jasmine.

She left the country and I don't even know what the reason is.

I sigh.

When will she return? Will she ever come back?

Anyway, I'll wait for her.

I turned my gaze in Gab's direction and I could almost blow out the beer I was drinking when I saw him kissing a woman.

Damm! That was so quick, huh?

Laughing a little, I shook my head and drank a beer again.

But unexpectedly a man appeared in their place. He grabbed Gab and punched him, causing Gab to lie down on the table. Girls scream at what just happened.

"What the!? Whos that fucking bastard!?" I murmured as I immediately stood up from my seat.

I can't see his face very well because he's not facing in my direction and the surroundings are a bit dark. Tch. How dare he punches my friend, huh!?

“You bastard. I’m gonna teach you a lesson tonight.”

Placing the bottle of beer I was holding on the table, I walked in their direction.

"Hey!"

I called him with a loud voice before he could grab Gab's collar. He faced me.

And my eyes widened to see his face.

What...! Shit!

It was Rafael, our senior. And I am wearing his shirt right now.
