Chapter 26 - .....Decent conversation

She sniffed as she clean her eyes ''Nothing...i want to go''

''i want to apologize for 3 weeks ago'' Now it was Stella turn to be surprised, she didn't know that max can apologize or he will take about what happened at the party, she thought he behave like nothing happened but look at what is happening

''Ok'' Stella said when she came back to her senses

''What happened 3 weeks ago in the party was an accident and i never had the intention to kiss you'' Max said only him knows that, that's a lie, he doesn't regret what he did

Stella face turned red at the mention of the kiss, she said in a small voice as she looked at her shoes ''Me too'' Now is time to tell about the deal, instead of being the omly one affected while he still has that his calm face, don't tell me i'm the only one who has been bothered about this kiss this past weeks that's so unfair, Stella muttered under her breath ''I'm so stupid''

''Why did you say that''

''What?'' Stella looked at him confused

''Why did you say that your so stupid''

Stella looked at him surprised how he heard what she said because she was sure she said it in a low tone, she hesitated before saying ''I kissed a guy that has always been bullying me''

Max is taken back before smiling ''Yes'' to have Stella glare at him that has him chuckle, even though Stella is timid girl but she is not very timid, she can have a temper when she wants to ''Well i'm sorry for bullying you''

Stella blinked as she is surprised by the apologize ''I'm also sorry for calling you an irritating bitch''

''Same here''

''Well we called each other irritating bitches'' Stella said as she laughed softly ''I can't believe this is happening''

''What?'' Max ask curious

''We are having a decent conversation''

Max smiled ''Yes'' as he looked at her for her to look at him, he lean in slowly and saw that she didn't struggle either that she is allowing him or she doesn't realize

Stella looked at Max eyes and she doesn't know why anytime she looks at him in the eyes she always feel like it wants suck people and make them get lost in them, breaking eye contract she saw that max is closer to her, her eyes widen in shock she quickly dodge, she cleared her throat and said without looking at him ''Umm... i think i'll be going now''

''Oh ok'' Max said as he took a step back enough for her to leave

''See you later max'' Stella said as she opened the door, before she left she looked sideways to make sure the hallway is clear before she left

Max chuckle at Stella actions, he never knew the little girl is amusing, Max left the janitor closet and went to the swimming pool, stripping to his underwear max entered the pool

After swimming for some time, max rested against the wall with his body still in the water as he ran his hands through his hair, only him knew how restless he has been this past weeks and stella hiding away from him didn't help, when he knew that the school sent a warning to stella and stella being the good girl she will definitely come to school early so he came to school early just to talk to her, to see her

And he did get what he want, but he didn't talk about what he planned to, not when he saw her cry, the discomfortable feeling that he feels anytime he see her crying but this time it was worst, it reminded him of all the time he had made her cry, he made her uncomfortable, he made her afraid of him, this feeling made him restless that's why he is here trying to cool off

He is brought back to the present when he head the door open, looking up he saw one of his friend entering inside, his friend looked at him when he turn around then walked to the edge of the swimming pool opposite where he is resting inside, he sat cross-legged close to the edge

''If you are going to seat near the pool at least dip your leg and enjoy the water'' Max said as he watched his friend

''I'll pass'' His friend said

''What are you doing here, Tyler, are you looking for me'' .

''Don't get ahead of yourself, i was looking for a quiet place to think''

''Really?'' Max raise his eyebrow in surprise as he looked at his cold friend ''You don't seem to be the sentimental type''

''How does this relate to be being sentimental'' Tyler said as he looked at the wall ''You know i never like people''

''Your a person'' Max said as he continued swimming

Tyler didn't answer but turned to watch max when max brought his head out of the water he asked ''What's bothering you''

''Is it so obvious''

''Maybe for someone like Collins, No'' Tyler said and he tilt his head when he saw that max isn't talking ''You can talk if you want and i'll listen, there's nothing to do right now so why not help me remove my boredom''

Max laughed a little ''We all know that you don't like to get involve in anything that is not related to you even if you are bored, maybe you will watch but to get involve is a big no''

Tyler shrugged his shoulder ''Whatever is bothering is you, you can't think very well because of your emotions so it's either you wait still you calm your mind down or you talk to a rational person which is me in this situation'' He paused ''If you don't want i'm not forcing you after all it doesn't concern me but i don't want to see you sulking when i'm with you''

Max kept quiet as he thinks about it, talking about stella isn't going to reveal anything about his life and if he and stella works out tyler will still know so there's no harm in letting him know now and tyler is right even though it will be better to go to someone who has been in a relationship, talking to tyler who is a very rational person now can help me clear things up, max said ''It's about a girl'' Max paused and tyler kept quiet waiting for him to continue ''a girl that i have been bullying''

''Stella jackson'' Tyler said

''How do you know'' Max said as he looked at him suspiciously

Tyler didn't react to his suspicion like he is already use to it ''Do you think that because you or Stella didn't talk about it that nobody will know, you humiliated her in front of everyone in the cafeteria and some melon eaters who hasn't gotten there full to be watching you of course, and also collins caught you when you were bullying the girl and drake also knows, he told us about it and also said that you like stella, right?''

Max finally stopped looking at tyler suspiciously then sighed as he ran his hand into his head out of frustration ''Yes, i do like her and i'm feeling terrible for bullying her, do you know how many times she has cried because of me''

''What made you to start feeling bad now'' Tyler asked after all something must have happened for him to feel bad now and not before

''I kissed her'' Max said to see tyler look at him with a blank look which made him suspicious but then that's tyler normal expression even though his angry or surprised he always keep a blank expression which was one of the reasons he became friends with him and one of the people he is most wary of

''So the girl has fallen for you like the rest, why are you now restless'' Tyler said

But Max just shake his head ''No''

''She let you kissed her when she has no feelings for you'' Tyler pause ''Did you force her''

''No!'' Max pause to arrange his words ''It happened at the party hosted by Gracy 3 weeks ago, when we were at the balcony everything was peaceful, looking at her with a peaceful expression on her beautiful face and the beauty of new york city has her background, it just happened''

''And she doesn't have feelings for you''

''Yes''

''How do you know''
