15
When the sun was up, I realized I made a huge mistake by ignoring Elle and not telling her about my parents. And I knew I have to tell her about what happened with jungkook. She won't stop until she hears the whole story. Not to make Elle angrier, I woke early, got ready and ran outside with the remaining pizza box.
Exactly after ten minutes Elle drove up and before she could get out and make a scene I got in and offered her pizza. But, I could clearly see that she was angry with me.
"Elle, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to ignore or avoid you." Shaking her head she looked at me,
"Meg, you know how worried I was? When I drove to your house in the morning, your dad told me that you already left. Your DAD Meg. I didn't even know your parents were back."
"Elle, listen I'm sor—" but she interrupted me,
"And in school I was looking for you and I heard you didn't submit your assignments, which was unusual. I went to your class only to find out that you had already LEFT!"
Compared to my real family, Elle is like my twin sister. She knows everything about me and she was always there whenever I needed someone. I took her hands in mine and squeezed them tightly,
"I'm sorry Elle. I really am. It's just I wanted to take them. I can't always depend in you and afterall they are my parents."
"Are your parents inside?"
I left out a chuckle and said that they already left. She just gave a nod. She knows that I don't have a good relationship with my parents. I kind of envy her. Unlike me, her family is so close. Whenever I go to her house, I always feel so small.
"Anyways, those things aside, what's going on between you and Jungkook?" She started the car and reversing, she asked smirking at me.
"Nothing!" I said and looked away.
"then why are you blushing, Meg?? I almost got a heart attack when he volunteered to check on you."
I looked at her and smiling said, "Actually thanks, Elle" , when I said thanks she pressed the brake so suddenly that I was almost thrown out of the seat.
"Jesus Ellen!"
"Oops!! Why did you thank me??" when I looked away again she started laughing and said, "I'll let you off for now."
.................
Before the class, I went up to find Mr. White and apologized to him for not submitting my assignment on time. But when I showed him my drawing he accepted it, strongly telling me not to forget my assignments again.
For today's class also the seven guys came and Mr. White entered with a big smile on his face and I knew he's up to something mischievous.
"Ok guys, today we are going to do something different. These guys have looked through all of your drawings and even the late submissions. For today's work, each member will choose a student and they will pose for them so that the chosen ones can draw them. Guys, remember, this is not the project and it's something we wanted to try out. So the others please don't get disheartened that you weren't chosen and you guys will be drawing them based on photos you can find." See? I told you he's gonna do something mischievous. But the most surprising thing is that the members will choose their partners today.
Mr. White added, "guys, go to your partners. The one's who's drawing, the deadline to submit your drawings is tomorrow so I don't care how you do it, just finish it by tomorrow. I need all the seven drawings on my table exactly at 12 noon."
Is he kidding me? Drawing a portrait takes lot of time and it takes more, to colour and highlight it. I was looking at the seven handsome guys standing in front of the room and prayed that I don't have to draw because submitting it by tomorrow is nearly impossible. Not wanting to make a scene, I bent down my head and started mumbling hoping that I don't have to draw.
Suddenly, the whole classroom became silent and even before looking up I knew, he has chosen me as out of the corner of my eyes I saw his shoes.
"It seems like you don't want to draw me. Is that why you were praying?"
Yes. Because I haven't wrapped my mind around the fact that he came so close to me that day and left without saying anything about it. Before I could look up, his tucked a strand of hair that was on my face behind my ear. The moment his hand brushed my face a tingling sensation came over me. I could feel my face getting red second by second and worse I have butterflies dancing in my stomach. How the hell I'm supposed to draw him like this? And then he called out to me,
"Meghan"
I didn't want to look at his face. I didn't want him to see my face blushing and I knew that if I pick up a pencil now, it will just roll over my hand. Before he could say anything I mumbled,
"Please sit, I will run to the washroom and come," and ran out of the room covering half of my face. I was running away from him to avoid facing him. Because I knew that whatever that's happening to me, he'll know that moment he looks at my face. Then tell me one reason, why the guy I'm avoiding is following me?
The moment I heard my name in the hallway I knew he was following me. So I started running towards the washrooms. Thank god everyone had classes otherwise I'm going get bullied by his fans.
But he was faster than me. Before I could reach the washrooms, he got hold of my arm and pushed me to the wall and I had to look at his face. He was still holding my arm against the wall, he moved his face towards me and I unconsciously looked at his lips before looking away, clearly blushing more than I liked.
"Meghan, look at me."
And being the idiot me, I did look at him. He stared right into my eyes and I knew I was blushing like crazy, but I couldn't bring my hand to cover my face. I was trying to give all my weight to the wall as I knew my legs were shaking like crazy. The moment he let go I might wobble down. He moved closer to me and I closed my eyes tightly. Then his lips brushed my left ear and he whispered,
"You're cute like a cherry." And chuckled before letting my hand go and walking towards the class. I was dumbfounded. I could clearly hear my heart drumming in my ear. He turned towards me putting his hands on his pockets and said smirking,
"Stop avoiding me, Meghan. You're stuck with me until you finish drawing."
