Chapter 17 ( updated)

"I apologise if it's a little too much, just a little too soon

But if the conversation ever were to come up

I don't wanna assume this stuff

But ain't it love?

I think I'm in love"

( so american

Song by Olivia Rodrigo)

What?.....

Does Nick have a fever or something?

I only knew him for 3 months max

What is he even talking about?

" What do you mean?" I asked

" That's another question" He said teasingly

" Gosh Nick! Just answer my question" I said, annoyed at him

" No , I don't want to " He said, putting a strand of my hair behind my ear

" I will give you another information about me just answer my question" I said, coming closer , I needed to know

" I'm not playing this game anymore"

" What?! you can't just stop at "you" like that!"

" Tell me Nick" I ordered him

" Ordering me around ?" He said, smirking

Gosh, i hate his smirk

" Yeah I'm" I said confidently

He suddenly lessened the gap between us, and his breath brushed against my ear like a warm feather tickling me

" I'm not someone who can be ordered around but by you" He stayed quiet for a second , and then I felt a hand on my lower back

" I might make an exception" He brushed his lips against my ear, and I almost jumped off the cafe couch as I got up, blushing

" Your ear are red…..cute" He smirked as he looked me up and down like he was about to eat me for dinner

" I'm going to search for Laura" I escaped the cafe , didn't look at Nick while leaving, but I definitely felt his gaze bore through my back

" Laura you were here" I said as I saw her with landon standing outside of the cafe , I walked to her and hugged her, I almost never hugged anyone of my friends, but Laura's hug was different, almost like a mother hugging her child

" What's wrong ?" She asked as i hugged her

" Nick"

" What about him?"

" He…"

" Talking behind my back sweetheart" I felt a hand scoop me out of Laura's hug

He held , my back was against his body , his arms wrapped around my waist

" Nick, let me go"

" No , not now , not ever" He whispered

" Maybe you should escape from him Lily before it's too late" Landon commented

That idiot is still here

I pushed Nick's hand away, but he wrapped them around me again, so I just decided to deal with it

" Why are you here, landon!? aren't you ashamed by what you said" I said, annoyed at landon

" Why should I be ? Me and Nick, we both knew that I kind of said the truth"

" You are so annoying!?"

I felt Nick whispering

" Want me to kill him for you ?"

" Won't that be too much ?" I asked, giggling

" Nope, I always wanted to do that" He smiled at my giggling

" And I volunteer to be the assassin!" Laura said playfully

I chuckled as I felt Nick's hand tighten around my waist

" Suddenly, all of you hate me" Landon said as he scoffed

" I hated you from the beginning" Nick added

" I didn't even like him" Laura then added

I laughed loudly

" But you are making my sweetheart laugh, so maybe I should forgive you and not kill you" Nick said as he touched my cheek

" Gosh, you are too down bad" Landon added

" Nobody cares about your opinion" Laura walked to landon and ruffled his hair

" You care" Landon added teasingly, talking to Laura

" In your dreams"

" My dreams come reality pretty often, so" Landon said that as he started grabbing Laura's hand as they walked in front of us

I looked at Nick behind me

" They are so in love, right?"

" Landon is obsessed with her it's pathetic" Nick said that looking at them disgustingly

I chuckled

The next day was another normal day

like every usual day at school

very boring

I was just sitting on Nick's lap as he was sitting on the toilet lid in the school's boys' bathroom

Nothing abnormal...

I hate my life.
