Chapter 2 - Chapter 2

" Ben " I hummed turning towards Neressa.

" Are you even listening? " she said, pissed that i wasn't paying attention to her. I could feel her glaring at me burning a hole on my face while i couldn't help but roll my eyes at her stare.

" My whole attention is on you " Lie. She could see through it. Her scoff at my reply almost made me ready to burst out laughing at the sound. I didn't want to upset her and she knew. And someway i kind of knew the reason of her aggressive sentence which i might have not paid much attention on

" Your lying i know " she said. Folding her arms against her chest as i glance at her small pout.

" Not a chance will i lie to you "

I smiled. If she just stop glaring at me like that.

" Repeat " she said narrowing her eyes at me while i couldn't help but felt my eyes widen a little bit at her sudden command. Repeat what?

" If you really paid attention than repeat what i said " Shit.

I knew i was in hell deep shit, because Neressa Williams is cute and really a good human being but when she is pissed god its better to stay away from her. She is not the type to stay put when she is angry and her hands work on the persons hair. Pulling the roots off there head. And i wasn't ready or will ever be to be the next person her, you're next list. So i said what i could only think of at the moment.

" About Adren? " I wanted to put in with confidence but my voice came out as a question. Great.

Neressa sighed while her narrowed eyes change into heartbroken.

Yup. Its Adren off course.

And my thoughts only got confirmed when she give a small nod. Obliviously him.

It was always Adren. Not that i hate the guy or not want to hear about his shits from Ness, blabbing about him twenty-four seven. His that, his this, and whatnot. It's just kind of a headache. And i do want to tell her. Badly.

Stop that bullshit and get a grip girl. I want to say. But i held myself and my thoughts.

" Don't you agree? " she questioned turning towards me, her gaze watching me as if my opinion really mattered at the moment. About her and the so called relationship.

I knew she cared less of whatever i tell her. The advice. She seemed so into it. But she isn't. I know she isn't. Cause Neressa doesn't take advice's from anyone when it comes to the decisions she herself decided. Even if she sometimes might look a girl in need. She won't agree or might raise a question if you give her a advice.

I nodded even if i knew she was just being the sad girl right now and just wants the answer she wanted to hear from me. So i give it.

" He said I was being childish. I just wanted to know where he goes and what he do's when i am not around. That wasn't much was it? "

She sounded off. I don't like when she doesn't s smile. I preferred more the happy go lucky Ness than the gloomy one, crying and whining and the glint of a vulnerable girl comes to my mind. And i felt bad. I wanted to console her say that the guy need to accept some pampering if he decides to have a girlfriend. But i knew that Ness wasn't right. And i kind of felt a little pity for the boy.

" Give him sometime. He will eventually understand "

" And if he doesn't? " she said instantly a fear of losing him, clear in her gaze.

" He won't. He loves you Ness. I'll talk to him " I assured her. I knew she was just being possessive of him and that was making the boy a little uncomfortable. And i can't say it to her face. Not right now when she looks like she is about to cry.

" Don't cry please " I raised from my seat pulling her close to me while hugging her small frame. Wiping the tears off her face. I was bad at comforting especially in this type of situation. People crying in front of me and i don't know what to do.

But i knew one thing or a certain person who could make her stop crying. Jadyn.

Dialing his number, when his name pops out on my phone screen.

Shithead. I sighed at the nickname. My finger freezes. One touch and the ring takes off. And just when i thought that he won't pick the call, i was ready to put it aside before cutting it off.

" What? " his deep raspy voice interrupt. Breathy, hard, and thick making me almost chock on my saliva. Did he just woke up?

I shook my head. A wave of cold shiver runs down my spine making me shudder. I find Ness grasping my arm. Her hold was tightened around my arms while her small sobs made Jadyn acknowledge of the situation.

" Hello, hey? " he halts before adding " Crappy? "

" What shithead, " I said gritting my teeth, annoyed at the nickname. My voice fretful. This shithead always ruin my mood with this nickname. His laugh on the phone made me straighten up finding myself almost lost at the sound of his cheerful chuckle. His laugh felt delightful and i find myself imagine the way his insanely soft plump lips lifted up into a wide grin. I had always heard his mockery tone. That sarcastic laugh and the way he scoffs every time, god he succeeds in making my day disastrous.

" Were you crying? " he asked and i felt my breathing stop. Not because he sounded concerned all of a sudden but because there was this weird tone in his voice. Nervous.

But why?

I shake my head getting the emotional shit out of my mind.

Ha! As if he ever cared. I reminded myself. Jadyn can never be anxious or worried about me. I knew.

He just.. like to play. I thought.

He never forget to remind me that he would make my life worst than it was already.

Bastard. I gritted my teeth. Hearing the hush of his voice. He didn't speak anything and i hear only silence, thinking he might have rather hung up.

I pulled the phone down off my ear staring at the screen. No, he is there.

And a smile pulls on my lips. Why? I knew nothing that maybe, maybe because i thought he might not even care to listen why i called and hung up. But he was there, waiting.

And i felt my mouth automatically open with the thoughts i wanted to keep to myself.

" I need you "
