Girl In A Boy's School - Jade Blue (books to read this summer .txt) 📗

possible, something I'm very good at. 

 

"What the hell Cece?" Finn said. I think it was the first time I heard him curse. 

He continued. "What's happened with you? You can't just ignore us and think that it'll be fine."

 

"I-" But he interrupted me.

 

"You know, I never knew you were someone who could just invite people into your life and push them away. I can't believe you."

 

I was about to say something. Anything to help him realise that I'm not like that. But for some reason, I couldn't. I just listened to him saying the absolute truth. I looked at Matt, he was looking at me and then looking at me Finn. He was thinking about something while listening. 

 

I had to say something.

 

"Okay!" I half-shouted. Finn stopped talking. 

"I'm sorry, okay?" I said. 

Finn shook his head. He didn't believe me. 

 

"Look, I need to pass this year and I can't distract myself."

"So you just completely stopped ignoring me?" Finn said. 

 

I didn't know what to say. I thought my excuse was enough for him to say okay but he made a good point.I didn't have to completely ignore him if I trying to concentrate on my studies."

 

I looked down. "I don't know what I'm doing." I said.

 

"Exactly." Finn said. I looked at him. He looked angry. He turned around and walked away.

I could have called him and explained to him but I couldn't. I felt like an awful friend. 

 

I looked at Matt. He was staring at me, trying to figure me out. I didn't know what to say to him so I just started walking away from him. 

He quickly came infront of me. 

"Okay, what happened?" He said. 

I was angry now. Didn't he understand why I was doing this. I was doing it for him but he was so confused. 

I didn't want to come between him and Finn. The way he got mad at me. It was obvious right?

 

"You wanted this to happen, right?" I said, a bit roughly. I don't know why I felt so weak when I'm with him. I just want this all to go away and it'll all be fine. 

He looked at me confused. "I don't understand."

 

"Look, why were you angry at me?" I said. "Because I was hanging around with Finn right?"

Matt looked down. So I was right. I was taking his best friend away from him.

He looked so tired. Like he hasn't been sleeping well. 

I felt weak again. "I won't go near him then." I whispered.

He looked up at me. "He's your friend. He's hurt that you just randomly stopped talking to him. it isn't right."

I sighed. " I know but you feel that I'm taking him away from you."

 

"Wait what-"

 

I interrupted him. I had to tell him and make him understand that i won't hurt him. "He's been your best friend all your life. I understand if you don't want me in the picture. I'm just coming in the way."

 

"Wait stop." Matt said shaking his head. He put his hand on my shoulder to stop me from blabbering. I felt weaker when he touched me. He was talking but i couldn't concentrate with his hand on my shoulder. He noticed and apologised. 

 

I looked back at him. "Cece." He smiled. 

"I don't think you're coming in the way at all."

 

" You don't?" I said, looking confused. 

He laughed. "You guys are my friends. I'm cool with it." 

I looked down, feeling like an idiot.

 

"But-"

 

"Look you have nothing to worry about. You're a good person. I know you."

He said. "Come on, we'll go tell Finn it was just a misunderstanding." 

I nodded.

I guess avoiding problems was stupid as hell. 

 

We were walking it to the school.

"Wait." I said, as i stopped. He stopped too and looked at me.

"If you're ok with me hanging around with him, then why did you get mad when I was with Finn a few weeks ago? Remember? When I was playing pool with him, you got angry at me. There was was something up" 

I looked at him, demanding an answer. 

"You were really pissed off. But why?"

NEXT UPDATE SOON - TODAY OR TOMORROW

 

 

Chapter 30: GOOD MORNING? NAH

 

"Look, I thought we were going to go to Finn and sort this out." Matt said, avoiding my question. 

I frowned. Is he serious? It was so obvious what he was trying to do.

Why can't he just tell me why he hated seeing me and Matt together? If it wasn't because of me stealing his friend, then what was the reason?

 

Matt was looking everywhere but not on at my face. This got me angry.

"Just spit it out." I said. 

He looked at me, eventually. He looked so tired and upset for some reason. Like i told him to tell me his biggest secret. 

"Okay, I'll tell you." He said. "But you're not going to like it."

This got me more curious. So it was something that I will be mad about?

"I don't care. I'd like to know." I said, trying not to get mad. Why do i get so mad when I'm with him?

 

"Well the thing is.." Matt, said, fidgeting with his jacket zipper. "I don't know what's been happening to me these days. Since you came here, everything has been different." 

I looked confused. Different? Like what? I wanted to say this but It looked like he was trying to explain it himself. I felt that if i interrupted, he will change his mind and not tell me. 

"It's just that when we kissed, I felt something." He said. 

My eyes widened. I, all of a sudden, felt uncomfortable. I can't believe this. He feels something?

Does he... you know.. like...no ofcourse not Cece, how can he..

 

He looked at me, trying to study my face. 

"You- you felt some - something" I stuttered.

He pushed his hair back. "I don't know what it is but it feels so weird." He said. " I don't know how i'm exactly feeling but i know that its because of you."

"Me?" I said, still not understanding. 

He smiled. "Yeah, you."

I kept listening.

"Ever since I met you, you've changed me. I can't stop thinking about you, I can't do anything. These weeks that we didn't talk was weird as hell and I.."

He looked so tired and upset. I wanted to tell him its okay but his words were ringing in my head. He couldn't stop thinking about me?

"I don't know.." He said. "I guess i like you." He said. 

I didn't know what to say. I just stood there staring at him thinking if this was real or not. 

 

"Cece." He said. I was dazed out. How long was I dazed out for? it felt like minutes.

I looked at him.

"So?" He said. Wait, did he want me to confess back? But I couldn't. I don't know. I just-

My phone rang. I got it out of my bag and looked at Matt. He was still staring at me, i guess, waiting for an answer. 

"Hello?" I said, trying to sound normal eventhough I was freaking out inside.

"CeCe?" My dad said. He never called me so this was weird. I didn't even know he had my number. 

He continued when i confirmed it was me. "CeCe, well erm you're mother is here." He said. 

I sighed. Okay, its only 10am but this day is going to be long as ever.
