Chapter 21 - Do you like me?

"Amanda just forget about it." Charles replied as he packed up the ointment.

"It's only when someone's loved one is in danger that's when a person acts in the manner you did." Amanda said.

"Do you like me?". Amanda asked as Charles opened his mouth in disbelief. Why would a girl ask such a question? Does she like me?. He wondered.

"Charles! Charles!" Amanda called as he came back to reality.

"Amanda I only consider you as a friend." Charles replied.

"But I haven't agreed to be your friend." Amanda stated.

"I know but you're still my friend." He said as he gave a warm smile.

"Eliza why did you call me here? Is Daniel alright?" Ella asked when suddenly she remembered that she wasn't allowed to speak about Daniel.

"I'm sorry." She said.

"You don't have to say sorry, I should be the one saying so." Eliza said bowing her head in guilt.

"I don't understand, why are you saying so?" Ella asked confused.

"I misunderstood you, you didn't try to kill my brother."Eliza stated.

"It was Chloe."Eliza cried as Ella stared at her stunned. She never knew this day would come that Eliza would treat her better.

"I understand, you don't have to say sorry because if I were you I'll have done the same." Ella stated.

"I need your help with something." Eliza stated looking at her with all sincerity.

"What could it be?" She asked.

"We need to expose Chloe. She's evil!"

"Charles I see you've become a hero right." Chris teased.

"What do you mean?" Charles frowned.

"I see you like that girl so much." Jayson said handing him an ointment.

"You forgot to dress your wounds too." He smirked.

"Thanks guys but still I don't like her." Charles groaned.

"As you say but know deep down that you feel something for that girl or why else would you risk your life to save her." Chris inquired.

"I was just been kind".

"Kind?" Jayson and Chris looked at him and laughed.

"What's so funny?" Charles asked confused.

"That's what people say when they are in love." Chris smiled patting his friend's shoulder.

"Guess what guys." Eliza suddenly said looking up from her phone.

"What?" Addie and Chloe asked impatiently.

"I have made up with mum." Eliza smiled.

"You know I shouldn't have juged her wrongly, she did so much for us."

"And the best news of all is that Daniel's out of coma and is coming back to school soon." Eliza stated as she embraced the girls in a hug.
