Mom picked me up after the practice. She had the biggest smile on her face. Did she look happy? I like seeing her like this. I told her that Bella was coming over this weekend because I wasn't allowed to go out. She said it was okay. I was glad.
I can't get over what happened earlier at the practice. After Nicolas and I pulled away from each other, I was blushing like crazy. It just feels weird. He said he missed me. Oh my goodness, I think I've just won the lottery.
After that scene, Miss J told us to have a five-minute break. I was indeed exhausted. I was sitting alone and busy playing with my phone. I didn't know someone sat beside me.
"Hi."
I looked at the person and I was happy to see him.
"Hey."
I tried to hide the smile forming on my lips.
"How are you?"
"Good."
I said, not even bothering to look at him. I wonder if he still remembers what he said to me last time. I was actually holding myself back from laughing. I miss him so much! I suppose he was waiting for me to ask how he was, but I just kept it to myself, although I was wondering about how he was doing.
"I'm sorry."
He is? I was smiling inside my head when he said that.
"What for?"
I asked, acting like I didn't get what he was trying to say.
"About what I said, um..."
He was nervous indeed.
"Which one?"
Yes, I was trying to annoy him.
"Never mind. Just forget about it." He seriously has some anger issues. I turn my gaze from my phone toward him. He was already staring at me.
"You know, you should be thankful that I'm your friend." I said and he still didn't get what I meant. "I forgive you, Nicolas freaking Flynn. But promise me you'll never say that mean thing again."
I was already smiling at him. I can't believe how easily I could forget about what he did...
"Sorry. It was a slip of the tongue. It won't happen again. Promise."
"Can I kiss you then?" I teased him. He said no, but he's blushing. He's so cute! I was glad that he was talking to me now.
At home, mom was happily cooking dinner. She looks so happy. Sometimes I get worried, but eh, she looks fine.
"So who's the boy?" Mom inquired. Huh? "What boy?" I was curious and confused.
"The boy who can't stop making you smile." She teased "He's just a friend, mom." I told her truthfully. just a friend. "Friend huh." She chuckled as I just ignore her teasing eyes.
He's not my boyfriend's mom. Not yet. I wish I could've said that honestly...
That night, I was busy doing my homework. Tomorrow is Friday, and I can't wait! It's just weird. My phone rang, and I got a text from someone. To be exact, it was Nicolas.
:Are you busy?
He texted. I smiled. I have a feeling that he has started to like me now. I replied back to him.
:Not really. Why?
He didn't reply after that, instead he called me. I was quite nervous. It's been a long time since he last called me.
:Hello?
I said to the phone.
:Hi
He replied. I chuckled.
:What?
He said. I was sure that he was raising an eyebrow.
:Why did you call me?
It was actually weird.
:Why? I can't call you now?
Why the sudden mood change?
:I was just asking for a chill.
I rolled my eyes, but obviously he couldn't see that. He chuckled.
:Sorry
I was waiting for him to talk, but he just kept silent.
:Are you okay?
I asked when he didn't say anything on the other line.
:Hm... I'm not sure. Can I ask you something?
Nicolas replied leaving me confused and nervous...
:Okay
I said and waited for him to ask his question.
:Did you still hate and hate me?
I was confused. What does he really mean by this? I was about to respond when he began speaking again.
:Because I don't. Not anymore. It was weird. Ever since you started missing I feel, um.. I miss you? I don't know. I started to miss your annoying behavior. Your vexing expression. Your annoying voice and you. It's just weird. I don't even know why I said this.
He said, and I laughed. Ohmygod, am I hearing this right?
:Wow, Nicolas. That is so... deep.
I was holding my laughter when I said that. He sighs.
:I shouldn't have told you about this.
I chuckled as I could hear him sighing in the other line. how cute
"That's sweet, Nicolas. It really is. You've started to like me now, huh?
I was actually overjoyed and wanted to tell him how much I adore him, but I think I should hold off for now.. He scoffed.
:When I said I'd stop disliking you, that doesn't mean that I'd like you. I'm not used to this.
I thought he was going to confess, but I was wrong. He had a heart as hard as brick. Ouch, it's hard to pass through him.
:I'm trying to accept you as a friend now. Be thankful.
The way he said that made me laugh. He sounded like my dad when he said that. Ohmygod
:Whatever you say, Nicolas.
To be honest, I really am happy now because he finally opened up to me. Is that progress? From hate to friend. I wonder what's going to happen next.
:But seriously, you're still annoying.
And when he said that, I just couldn't stop smiling. He said that I'm now his friend. Oh God, this is the happiest moment of my life! I was thinking that soon enough he'd like me and we'd live happily ever after. Since my plan is working, It was weird and wow.
