Chapter 34 - His best friend

I was blinded by the sunlight hitting my face, so I slowly opened my eyes. The curtain of the room was open, I would have gotten up to close it but I noticed that there was an arm on my waist when I turned around I saw Seth's handsome face sleeping, I remember what happened last night the reason why I'm here.

I arranged my position lying in front of him so that I could observe his face even more.

I caressed his gentle face and he moved slightly and pressed his face to my neck probably because of my touch, I could smell his masculine scent and I could feel his breathing on my neck and he pulled me even closer to him.

*Dug dug dug dug*

I feel this excitement again, every time he hugged me, maybe I like this man, I kissed his forehead but suddenly I heard a sharp scream so I looked at the source

"Eh? What are you doing here?" I got up and pushed hard on the sleeping Seth so he woke up. I saw in the chair opposite the bed her mom and Serra looking at us

"I thought you were just friends? Why did you sleep next to each other?" Seth's mother sang a teasing melody

"I told you mom she's big brother girlfriend," Serra said

It's embarrassing for her mom to see us, what do they think? That I'm easy to get?

"Mom, why are you here? It's early" sleepy Seth questions

"I'm about to check you when I saw both of you sleeping in one bed. In one bed" She emphasizes her last word

"We just slept mom, you two come out, and we will follow you in the dining hall," Seth said to them

Her mother looked at us meaningfully and then she led Serra out the door, when they left I breathed a sigh of relief, His mom was like a teenager who was very excited and sweet; and weird but she was really funny

"Sorry for that" Seth apologies

"It's okay I—" I didn't finish what I was going to say when he pulled me over and laid me down

*Du dug dug dug*

My head was laid in his arm; he just stared at me as if memorizing my face

"Did you have nightmares again last night?" He ask, I shook my head

"Never repeated" I answer

"Good, are you always having a nightmare?" He gently stroked my hair

"No, just last night really, the weird of my dream I had two little girls who dreamed a woman chasing them in the woods and wanted to kill them" He suddenly stopped stroking my hair

"Let it go, it's just a dream," He said

We got ready and went down to the dining hall to have breakfast, we heard a noise coming from the dining hall when we entered Aunt Sarrah and Serra came up to me but they had another woman with them that I didn't know, she turned her back on us so I couldn't see her face

"Good morning Brother and Seven" Serra greeted us, they turned to us I heard the angelic voice of the girl when she spoke

"It's been a year's Seth" I saw a beautiful girl; she has an angelic voice and face

"When did you come back, Celine?" Shocked register on Seth's face, the woman named Celine immediately approached Seth and hugged him

"Just last night, guess what? I plan to stay here and I will continue my studies here" She said

"That's good, have you chosen your school?" Seth asked

"Yeah, I'm planning to go to Serenity University, same as yours" Celine girl said still smiling

"Breakfast will be cold, come and let's eat" Aunt Sarrah called us

Seth sat first so I followed him I would have held the seat next to him when Celine proceeded me; She sat there next to Seth. I have no choice but to seat beside Serra, opposite Celine's chair

While eating they would talk while I was quietly listening, that Celine just arrived and Seth forgot me right away

"By the way Celine this is Seven Seth's friends and Seven this is Celine Seth's childhood friend" It's good that his mom still remembered to introduce me while he was already focused on that woman

"Hi Seven nice to meet you" She smiled at me

"Nice meeting you too Celine" I smiled at her

After we ate, we decided to go on tour; there are waterfalls and a cave near here so we plan to go there.

When we arrived I was amazed I walked around the place it was so beautiful it was not visited by many people but when I looked at Seth and Celine who were currently laughing my mood suddenly changed; a bad trip that scenery is hearting my eyes.

They changed into swimming clothes while I was just here on the side mumbling, if not only Aunt Sarrah hadn't carved me to come, I would never have come.

I thought he had no friends because he's a loner and he always is bullied? Then why there is Zendaya and Celine?

"Hey, Seven are you okay?" that's Serra

"I don't want to swim, I'm not in the mood," I said while frowning

"It's because of Celine? Are you jealous?" She's teasing me

"I am not!" I said in a defensive voice

"I also not like Celine, she's not nice, I have a plan" I got up in my seat and faced her

"What plan?" I asked

"Sorry for this Seven, but promise my plan is worth it," she said, I'm about to ask her why she is saying sorry but suddenly she pushed me

I fell into the water and I heard her voice screaming..

"HELP!! BROTHER!! SEVEN IS DROWNING!!" I heard her screaming

What the?—is this her plan?—Kill me?
