"Where have you been?" mom was frantic the next morning and embraced me tightly. "We were worried sick. John even organized a search rescue." John was the "friend" that I was supposed to meet last night. I went straight to my bed when i arrived home, giving my mom no answers as she ushered me to my bed. She realized that she was not getting anything from me so she left me to get some sleep. But that doesn't mean the she wont pry the next day. Her brows furrowed as she examined my face, "And who was that guy who brought you home?"
I gave her a faint smile as i lazily went to sit at the breakfast table. "The car broke down in the middle of the road. I have no other choice but to leave it." Mom gasped as i continued. "I was lucky enough that a guy from my school passed by. He tried to fixed it but there was nothing that he could do."
Mom's face paled that she hugged me some more from behind and kissed the back of my head. "Thank God that it was him who found you and not some random bad guy." I nodded.
She walked at the fridge and begun scavanging. She started chopping and making sandwiches. When she's done, she gave me a plastic filled with 2 sandwiches. "Bring these to him as our thanks to his kindness."
"The car needs to be towed mom. I'm sorry," I mumbled. She squeezed my hand and gave me a reassuring smile, "Don't worry about it. I'll have John tow it." I nodded quickly, picked up the packed sandwich and went outside to wait for the bus.
My phone rang and a frantic voice is heard on the other line. "Where were you last night? We've been looking all over for you. We found your car abandoned at Shieka's road." It was Gemma Jean, my bestfriend.
"My car broke. We have no other choice but to leave it," i said faintly.
"We?"
"Kurt found me and helped me out nd brought me home."
"Kurt? As in The Kurt Sebastian Rigor," her voice changed from frantic to disbelief. "The Hot and Flirty Kurt?"
"Flirty yes but Hot i dont think so," i nervously cough out lies.
"Your such a bad liar. We both know he is super hot. As in the hottest man alive, next to Jason Momoa of course," she said as if it was settled.
I gave a tiny laugh. Gemma is crazy over Aquaman's lead cast. My heart started pounding as i recognized a familiar sight nearning me. A rider in full faced helmet with white shirt and dark denim pants minus the leather jacket. He made a full stop in front of me and took of his helmet. He smiled brightly and shook off dust from his hair.
"Need a ride?" he asked.
"I'm waiting for the bus," i said shyly.
"It wont be here for the next 15 minutes or so. I just passed by it at Santa Roque picking up quite a number of dudes."
I hesitated. He handed me his extra full faced helmet. "You know i dont bite right? Haven't i proven myself trustworthy last night?" He looked at me with a pleading look and a geniune smile.
I nodded. My heart was screaming YESes. I fitted the helmet, climbed up his bike and shyly wrapped my arms around his waist making sure that some space distanced his back from my chest. He then started his bike.
Sooner than i wanted the moment to end, we arrived the school's parking lot. Guys nodded at him as girls glared at me when we climbed down his bike. I took off the helmet and handed it to him. "Thank you," I whispered.
"You're most welcome Miss Top 3," he smiled teasingly.
"Stop calling me that. I have a name," i said.
"Ok. You're most welcome Heline," he said as he planted a soft kiss at the back of my hand. I was taken aback. I didn't know how to respond. He laughed soft-heartedly.
"Hey Kurt," Levin called from behind me. Kurt nodded and was about to leave and join him.
I quickly handed him the packed sandwiches, "Mom wanted to give you these as a thank you for saving me last night."
He slightly frowned then quickly lights up as he realized what i handed him. "Wow, thank you." He quickly gave my cheeks a soft squeeze and whispered "I'll see you later," and joined the obviously irritated Levin. I was left touching my cheeks where his hands had just settled.
"Oh-Em-Gie!" Gemma's shrill voice broke my reverie and landed me back to reality. "Did you just arrived with Kurt?"
I nodded and smiled shyly.
"Spill out the juice," she excitedly wrapped her arm around my right arm as we headed towards our class.
I laughed a little. "There's nothing to spill."
she pouted, "Dont you leave me hanging here."
"I'm not. He just happened to pass by where i was waiting for the bus and offered me a ride."
She scoffed and rolled her eyes, "Kurt just randomly asked you for a ride?" I nodded. "The flirty and super playboy Kurt Sebastian Rigor?"
i frowned and sighed, "It isn't a big deal Gemma. He flirts with everybody."
Gemma rolled her eyes, "He doesn'T flirt with me. And he certainly doesn't plant kisses in all the females in this school."
I smiled and waved her off as i seated in my chair. She leaned in closer and whispered, "I think he likes you."
"Stop it," I whispered back and tried to focus on my professor's drowning lecture.
