Drunken confession(chapter 10)

Savage sat next to Nate,all the students were looking at him nervously,he had never joined such thing infact he never joined any school clubs he never liked noisy and crowded places.Seeing all them nervous he cleared his throat "continue " he said,they all sighed in relief they thought he might scold or report them to the disciplinary,no one wished to be on his bad side."We were about to play truth or dare do you want to join" asked the senior,Savage looked at him confused with an expression saying what is that?,Seeing this the senior understood that he never played this kind of game so he told the rules and how to play and punishment for refusing the dare was to drink all the alcohol in a disposable cups.Five students were the first to start playing and Savage was one of them also Jason had been included and now the game began.They played for sometime,doing dared or telling the truth and soon it was Savage's turn "truth or dare" asked the senior "truth" he said,Nate who sat next to him gulped nervously since Savage had come he had been uncomfortable he didn't look and him even when he sat next to him.He had been drinking alcohol to calm his wildly beating heart,he felt his strares but he ignored it unlucky for him he couldn't leave so he had to bear with it,but once he heard Savage's response his heart was unable to calm down."Do you have a crush on someone?" asked the student,everyone's attention was on Savage if it was on normal days he would have ignored this question or the student wouldn't had the courage to ask him such question but he was drunk and everyone knows that alcohol gives you courage to say things you won't say when sobber.Savage looked at Nate and as expected he wasn't looking at him "yes,I have a crush on someone" he said and everyone jaws dropped if possible they would be touching the ground,no one expected this response even Nate was suprised.They knew how Savage was and how he behaved many liked or loved him but he had never shown any interest,he was known for brutally rejecting his admirers both male and female.Because of his brutal rejection no one ever dared to confess to him one could only love him from afar or have just unrequited crush on him but him loving or having a crush on someone was unheard of, who was the lucky girl everyone wondered. "Who is that lucky person?"asked the student everyone was also curious "I won't tell and I'm the one who is lucky" he said and everyone's curiosity was at it's peak.If only they could know the person Savage likes he even said he is the one lucky that person must be extremely beautiful and special they thought.

Savage was looking at Nate they met each others gaze but Nate looked away,he was also curious to know who Savage liked,he wished it was him but he knew it was impossible.Savage was like unobtainable star in the sky you can see and even watch it as it graces you with it's presence but you can never touch or go near it,knowing there was someone Savage liked made his heart hurt,he felt a million needles pricking his heart,he felt suffocated and unable to breath,the excessive bitterness he felt was unimaginable,to cool off he gulped all the alcohol on his plastic glass and added another one,as they kept on playing and chatting he was busy drinking alcohol even Jason couldn't stop him.Savage was looking at him and understood what was bothering him and smirked,Nate was about to add another alcholol to his glass when Savage grabbed his hand,Nate looked at him with misty eyes and seeing this made Savage feel like his heart had been touched by a feather,his flashed face and misty eyes made Savage gulp,he looked at his thin pink lips and suddenly he felt thirty and wanted to have a taste of those lips to know how sweet they taste but before he could do anything stupid he come back to his senses " stop,don't drink" he said in a dry and hoarse voice,snatching his glass sway.Nate pouted,he was already drunk,he looked at Savage as if he had offended him he thought he looked angry and intimidating but Savage only saw him as a cute kitten throwing a tantrum,he was even tempted to pat his head.

Most of the students were already drunk "let's all go to our rooms before it's curfew time" said the senior he too was drunk but he was in a better state "help those who are drunk and can't walk properly" he added.Some of the senior students collected all the trash to hide evidence of alcohol while others helped those who were drunk to their rooms "let's go Nate " Jason said he too was drunk but he was able to stand up after a few attempts "mmmh" Nate said,Jason wanted to help him up but Savage stopped him "I'll take him to his room,you should go to your room you're too drunk" he said "no I can't leave my friend with you" Jason said.Savage was getting impatient and didn't have the energy to deal with a drunk person he called the senior "take him to his room" he said ."But what about me?" asked Nate "I'll take you to your room" he said "no no I don't want to,I'm still ignoring you I'll go on my own" Nate said shaking his head,he stood up but nearly fell if not for Savage supporting him he would have fallen with his butt."Let's go" he said and carried him in a bridal style though Nate was refusing while hitting his chest Savage didn't let go and after sometime Nate stopped fighting,if the students weren't drunk they would have seen this scene but they were all busy and didn't see it.Savage carried Nate to his room "password" he said and Nate slowly said his room passcode after a few attempts they got inside Nate's room,Savage helped him lie on his bed and took off his shoes,he sat next to him on his bed."You're a bad person" Nate said ,Savage was surprised when he heard him,"what did I do?" he asked that was the question he had wanted to ask him since he started avoiding him and now since they were all alone he might know the answer,he had heard that drunk people always speaks the truth so this was the right opportunity for him,Nate won't lie to him."Don't know" he said ,Savage sighed "why are you ignoring me?" he asked caressing his head" because you're a bad person" he replied pushing his hand away weakly,he was drunk and didn't have much strength "how I'm a bad" he asked and continued carresing his head,his eyes held alot of emotions while looking at Nate,"you're a playboy" Savage looked at him shocked,him a playboy?,this was the first time someone said he was a playboy " how am a playboy?" he asked curiously.He wanted to know why Nate thought of him as a playboy,but instead of answering Nate furrowed his eyebrows "who do you like?" he asked seriously this time Savage was speechless,he was the one who wanted answers from him not the other way round."Is it important?" he asked "just answer who do you like?" Nate asked tears forming in his eyes,Savage panicked after seeing this "calm down,why are you crying?" he asked panicked "do you like that boy I saw you with last time?" Savage was confused what boy?,after thinking for sometime he understood what he meant "Daniel?" he asked,Nate hiccuped "yeah him,is he the one you like,is that why you two were making out?" he asked.Savage looked at him suprised him making out with Daniel,he felt like laughing at such silly thing where did he get that ideas from,but seeing those tears in his eyes he felt more at loss and wanted to clear the misunderstanding,he didn't want Nate to continue ignoring him."Is that why you were ignoring me?" he asked looking at Nate,if only he knew how stressed he was when he kept on ignoring him,he won't dare say he liked someone else but also he didn't know how to explain it to him "yes,I don't like to see you with someone else,I get jealous when I see you with someone else.....also my heart beats faster when I see you,I feel happy when I see you,... and..I...." but he fell asleep before he could finish his sentence." And what?" Savage asked,he had listen to that beautiful drunk confesion but Nate slept before he could finish the most important part.He tried to wake him up but he was already sleeping soundly,Savage felt unexplainable emotions when he heard his drunk confession,he was to overwhelmed but extremely happy.Though Nate didn't say it,Savage guessed everything and felt lucky,when he said he had a crush on someone he meant Nate and it also seemed that he also felt the same way he hoped he would remember what he said when drunk but mostly people forget what they had said or done when drunk,he didn't know whether he will ever hear that beautiful confession again but he wanted to hear it when he was sobber.
