Episode 9

?Elsa POV?
I suddenly remembered what Kyle and Bryan were talking about.

What did Kyle mean by ‘you just have to accept it that she left you for me’.

Did Bryan have a girlfriend before? If he actually did then what exactly did Kyle meant by ‘she left you for me’.

Gosh!! I rubbed my templates carefully, all this is just hard to process right now.

I sighed resting on my bed properly, i need to get some rest after a bad day at school.
~~~
I groaned to someone shaking me. I sat up and saw Tristan staring at his phone smiling.

“What is it?”. I asked tiredly.

“Its Dinner time”. He replied.

I stood up yawning. “Did I sleep that much?”.

He nodded still staring at his phone.

I quickly grabbed his phone from him.

“Hey!! Give that back”. He yelled.

“Race you downstairs”. I said running out of my room and down the wooden stairs.

I ran to the dining room beside the kitchen and met Beverly and her parents there.

“Elsa, nice of you to join us, come sit”. Her Dad called.

“About time”. Beverly mumbled.

I smiled ignoring what Beverly said and sat opposite her.

Tristan came in later sitting down besides Beverly grudgingly.

I passed him his phone under the table and he took it swiftly.

“I really missed you, Elsa, the way you and Beverly always played around in the past”. Her Dad said.

I giggled. “Mr. Smith, that was like 5 years ago”.

“I also remembered you being very stubborn, you would always annoy me and Mary back then”. He continued.

Tristan laughed. “She’s still annoying”.

I rolled my eyes. “Haha, very funny, like you are any better”.

“So how was first day like, Elsa?”. Mr. Smith asked.

“It was okay. At least I made friends”. I said remembering Gabriella and Bryan.

Beverly scoffed. “How cute”.

“Beverly!!”. Mary warned.

Beverly shrugged. “I didn’t say anything”.

“What about you Tristan, how was first day like?”. Mr. Smith asked.

Tristan smirked. “It was so cool, i already got on the popular list and I now have a girlfriend”.

“Victoria isn’t your girlfriend”. I said.

“Who’s Victoria?”. Beverly asked.

“She k!ssed me. You saw that”.

I rolled my eyes ignoring him.

“Beverly, sweetie, what about you?”. Mary asked nicely.

“I’m trying to eat please no questions”. Beverly replied.

How rude of her!! Her Mum was just being concerned and she acted that way.

We spent rest of the dinner silently and after I went to go wash up the plates.

Beverly walked in. “My Mum said I should come help you”.

“No thanks, I’m done already”. I said drying my hands with the napkin.

“You always complained when doing chores, its a wonder you are doing it now without any complaints”.

I smiled faintly. “People do change. You know that”.

“So did you have a boyfriend back at Las Vegas?”. She asked suddenly.

I furrowed my eyebrows. “No why?”.

“You couldn’t even have a boyfriend back there and you think you have a chance at Kyle here in SpringCity High”. She mocked.

I paused. “Are you making fun of me?”.

“I never did that. I’m just trying to tell you in a nice way as a best friend that Kyle can never notice someone like you”.

I scoffed. “Best friend? Me and you? I cant be best friends with a stranger”.

She sighed. “I’m not the bad guy here, Elsa, i’m just trying to keep you out of harms way”.

“By saying I have no chance with Kyle?”.

“Kyle is different now .. He’s a playboy and as your friend, although I’m not allowed to say this, i’m telling you to stay away from him or something might happen”.

I was taken aback. “I should stay away from Kyle?”.

“He has a girlfriend and she’s dangerous”. She shouted.

“Sapphire is just his fuck buddy same with Kimberly, I guess”.

She rolled her eyes. “Kimberly is with Justin not Kyle”.

“Then how about you stay away from Kimberly and Sapphire?”.

“I’m only with them so as to survive my last year of Senior High, i don’t wanna cross their paths like others. Being their friend is the only thing I can do for them not to, you know, do something bad to me”. She explained.

I flared up. “Being their friend? Or being their puppet? You do literally everything they say”.

“Thats because I don’t wanna get on their bad side”. She retorted. “Also because of Carl”.

“I don’t believe you”. I told her off.

“I’m serious about all this, Elsa”. She took a deep breath. “I’m sorry for the way I acted in school, i just had to do it so they will think am on their side”.

I raised an eyebrow. “You don’t like them?”.

She shook her head negatively. “I don’t want to be targeted by them thats why i became friends with Kimberly, I’m just trying be a good friend, if you don’t believe me, then good”. She turned and left.

I sighed and went back to my room, i closed the door and flopped on the bed tiredly.

I thought of what Beverly said, it kinda matches with what Gabriella said. About them being horrible but if they are horrible? Why is Beverly still with them?

This is so complicated, i only came back to SpringCity because of Kyle and it seems everyone is afraid of that same Kyle.

Tomorrow is another day of school, i hope it gets better. i closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.

^^Morning^^
“Rise and shine!”.

My alarm clock rang as I woke up the sun rays indicating a bright morning. I sat up and removed the covers standing up.

I went to the bathroom tiredly to take a shower. Once I was done, i went back to my room and dried my body applying some body cream.

I went through my clothes before deciding on a long sleeved white shirt with black stripes, dark jeans and my black and white high cut vans along with my backpack.

I brushed my hair letting the dark curly tresses flow over my shoulder. I dropped the hair brush and went downstairs.

I met Tristan at the table eating stuffing his face with food as usual.

I ruffled his hair. “Hey little brother. You look cute this morning”.

He removed my hand from his hair. Can you stop doing that?”.

“Can you ever stop eating?”. I asked sarcastically as I took a seat besides him.

“I can stop doesn’t mean I will”. He replied.

I rolled my eyes and took a spoon delving into his cereal taking a bite. I took two more spoons before getting up.

I looked around. “Where’s Beverly?”.

“She went to school earlier, cheerleading practice she said”. Tristan replied.

“What about Mary?”. I asked after Beverly’s Mum.

“She’s still in bed. I presume”.

I tapped him. “Okay then lets go”.

He finished his breakfast and walked with me outside the house to the curb where I parked my car. I unlocked the car and we both got in. I drove us to school in 30 minutes or more.

I parked my car in the school parking lot and we got out.

I noticed some girls giving side glances at Tristan and he winked in return.

“You know them?”. I asked surprised.

“They are all freshman but my girly fans”. He said casually.

“So you became Popular on your first day?”. I asked surprised.

He nodded in response. “Cuteness rules”.

I rolled my eyes. “At least your first day was better than mine”.

“Well I hope you have a good second day”. He smiled. “Bye Elsie”.

I waved him bye and walked into the school hallway. I hope today will be good.

I walked over to my locker and paused confused, locker 88 or is it locker 89.

“Its Locker 89”.

I turned to see Carl behind me. “Huh?”.

“Looks like we are locker buddies”. He said and opened his locker throwing some books in it then closed it back.

“Thanks for the info, i will keep that in mind, locker 89”. I said.

He chuckled. “You know I never got your number yesterday, we didn’t get to talk more”.

I smiled. “Oh really? About what?”.

“I didn’t get to tell you what moisturizing cream I use”. He joked.

I snickered. “You are hilarious”.

“You look fun to hang out with”. He winked at me.

Mason came over and held Carl dragging him away so he wouldn’t talk to me.

“Why are you talking with her?”. I heard Mason said to Carl as they left.

The bell rang immediately and I checked my timetable before heading to my first class, Geometry. I hate Geometry.

I walked to class and found out the teacher was there already. Oh man.

I walked in nervously.

“Go take your seat, Miss Reyes, i haven’t got all day”.

I gulped nervously and searched around for an empty seat and it was at the front of Kyle. I took a deep breath and went over there sitting down.

The Geometry teacher started talking, it hasn’t been five minutes when someone tapped me.

I looked back and saw Kyle smiling. Weird.

“Hey Sweetheart”. He said sweetly.

I ignored him and faced my front taking notes of what the teacher was saying.

“Come on, just look back”. He whispered.

I kept on writing ignoring him and saw a ball of crumpled paper on my desk. I opened it and read it, i knew it was from Kyle immediately. I tore the paper into pieces and threw them under the table.

He poked me at my back several times.

Finally, Geometry class ended and I rushed out of class running. I stopped by a locker to catch my breath.

“You think you can run from me”.

I looked up startled to see Kyle.

He pushed me against the locker and put one arm above my head on the locker prevent me from moving.

“Relax, I just want to be friends”. He said.

I didn’t answer him, i was uncomfortable with him being this close to me.

“Look at me. Elsa”. He said harshly.

I tried to move but he didn’t budge at all. I looked at him and I almost melted because of his beauty.

“You cant take the cuteness?”. He mocked me.

Gosh!! He’s so full of himself.

“Kyle, I have a class to go to”. I spoke up.

“I want you here with me”. He whispered in my ear softly.

“Kyle ..”. I trailed off as I stared into his eyes befuddled.

He finally let go off me, i was about to walk away when he held me back and k!ssed my lips softly. I gasped and he took the opportunity to k!ss me more deeply svcking on my lips.

This is so unexpected. Kyle k!ssing me.
I couldn’t even contemplate what was happening as he slipped his hands around my waist drawing me closer kissing the hell out of me.

I ran my hands through his hair roughly as I k!ssed him back, Its just like what I’ve always dreamed of when coming back to SpringCity for Kyle to notice me. Me and my Childhood Crush k!ssing.

“Are you guys done?”. I heard behind us.
