Chapter 6: Chapter 6

Padgett POV.

For some reason, I really don't want to be seen with Cameron in school premises, so many eyes were on me, yesterday when he pulled me through the crowd of those numerous girls and appearing at the club with him, the previous night, is frustrating.

As I walked through the hallway, I really wish Cameron would forget about Cathy, Rhonda and everything that had to do with them, who knows maybe he and Cathy would work out but I had a really bad feeling about Rhonda, she kind of look like those girls that will part ways with her friends all because of a boy.

I would sneak past the crowd unnoticed and make my way to my locker to grab my books I need them then I have to go to the lab to bury my head in my books before the bell will ring.

I opened up my locker to see a note carefully placed inside possibly from the little hole underneath it

I didn't really posses any secret admirer, even if I will have in future, not so fast, just the second day in school, so I was really curious as to who would have dropped this and decided to open and see what is it.

“WHORES LIKE YOU DON’T DESERVE LOCKERS"

"YOU SHOULD STAY AWAY FROM HIM"

#YOU KNOW WHO#… I read out loud before tightening my fist.

Do they have to do this? I haven't really say anything, and it's just a crush which no one know yet, a crush...

A crush! I almost jump out of my skin, when I heard that voice behind me, I close my locker and held my chest.

You! Why are you stalking me?

Not really, I just saw you standing there, looking all drill.

Oh! I was catch off guard, with the thought of something.

Your crush!

Crush!

Yes, I heard you say crush. Newton said, I look at him in shock. Probably, we could talk about that some other time, I will like you to come watch the basketball team.

What?

Don't worry, it's just some Harmless invitation, I am not going to eat you, I just want to get to know you and the truth is, so many students will be there and it's in the open not in the dark that I could kiss you.

I fall my face at his words, he tap my shoulder then make his way out, I turned to look at him, forgetting my first dilemma.

Still smiling sweetly towards him, I didn't know when I bumped into Julia, I looked up

Are you stupid or you just been a clumsy idiot? She asked

Sorry! I really don't know you were...

How would you know, didn't your parents teach you that, it's bad to throw yourself on boys, the very minutes you step your foot into a new school...

I wasn't..

You don't talk, when I am talking, you should listen, if you don't want my trouble, you should run whenever any boy come close to you or I will damage your ugly face. She hit the locker door behind me, I don't want to fight, so I just passed under her arm, I need to avoid them.

Hoping this is not going to be a bad day, but I think it is, I came face to face with Cassie, the girl, Cameron was kissing last night and the one, he left behind just to pulled me out. she smirked when she saw my face.

"Fuck,I hate her" she muttered then increase her step, she suddenly bumped into me intentionally, causing my book to fall to the floor. As I bent to take pick them, she step on them, I look at her. Aren't you supposed to apologize for bumping into me first, instead of giving attention to those lowlife book of yours?

But you bumped into me, it's not my...

"What thy fuck!!" Cassie screamed and raised her hand to slap me, I closed my eyes to receive the slap Alex hold her hand from the back, all eyes fell on us.

Who thy heck is...." She stopped when she turned back and saw Alex

Alex! Cassie muttered

You shouldn't look for trouble, when it doesn't look for you. Alex said and released her hand

"Are you okay?" He asked me,

Yes,thank you" I said with a smile.

Fine, we should leave, you don't want to get late for first lecture. I nodded then walked behind him.

Fuck you bitch! why did he get involved?' Cassie groaned inwardly

As I make my way with Alex back to the class my brain wasn't functioning, so I excuse myself from him, to used the restroom.

First it was leaving stupid notes now, it is assaulting me, I wonder what will happen next, this is getting out of hand but sadly I couldn't do anything about it

Is it going to be the same silly story about every girl that happened to be the so called best friend of a playboy, I read the girlfriends would always get jealous of their best friend and then they will take it out on their best friend.

Should I just tell him? No! I wouldn't be the cause of their break up, even if I don't do anything, they will still break up.

My inner self scold me.

Should I listen? Gosh! I pulled my glasses from my eyes in frustration, I really don't know what to do but I couldn't keep quiet either since it would mean constant pain

From what I have heard, Cassie has been the worse of them all, due to the fact that she was the queen of prom and the one girl, Cameron had dated for more than a week but frankly that really does not give her the right to pick on others but yet I would not be able to do anything about it as always I would just have to keep my feelings to myself and act like everything is fine when I’m broken inside.

Just then my phone ring, it's from my female best friend, the girl that I have met in country D.

“Hey you, why haven't you been taking my calls? Emerald screamed through the phone almost damaging my eardrum.

Sorry! Don't you know this is school hour.

Oh dear! I forgot but the truth is, I really want to give you the good news.

What good news? My voice was really low, it's not sounding the way I used to sound when I heard she had good news for me.

Hey what is wrong? Cameron's trouble? She said a little too loud, almost damaging my eardrum.

Sh! someone might hear… I said reducing the sound of my phone.

Emerald was my well second bestie, she was the first friend I made, when I arrived at country D, she kind of share same interests with me, so we really connect pretty well, she was like the sister I never had and we’ll we tell each other practicality everything there were no secrets between us and I really hope it stays that way

She knew I was in love with Cameron since I let it spill during one of our little girl time confessions and since then she always tried to get me to tell him how I feel about him even though she doesn't know who Cameron is.

She was my confidant and my pillow whenever I needed to cry which was always because of Cameron, I really don't know the reason, I keep crying over him, when I was the one, who left him. I think crying do help me, so whenever I come out I would be stronger and I would be able to pretend like I didn't break apart a few seconds ago

What if they hear so what? you need to tell him sooner or later but anyway, I know no one will hear because we are on phone.

You right? So what is the good news. I sighed as I asked.

I just got a transfer to your school, I am so excited, I really wanted to surprise you just as you did to your crush but I said, I should have pity on your poor heart.

Whoa! At least, I could have an alibi.

Stop it already, I know you already have so many friends, are they hot boys like your crush.

Yes! They are much, just come, you surely will get one, of cause, you are pretty. I said more like a whisper, I keep telling her that she is more beautiful than me but she never did agree, she always say I look hotter, but if I am more hotter, why can't he love me

When are you telling him, you love him? Her voice dragged me from my thoughts.

I’m not telling Cameron, how I feel about him, so Emerald drop it besides that’s not what got me down.”

But it has to do with him right?

Hm… Yes... But...

Alright alright I’ll try to convince you to tell him later when I finally move in. Talk to you later.

Bye bestie! I said then sighed,turning to leave, is Newton, my eyes fall on him. You!

Yes me! You are crushing on your best friend, as in Cameron is your crush.
