Chereads / Forever August / Chapter 6 - 6

Chapter 6 - 6

August pov

"Isn't that your guy". Lisa pointed out as he saw Noah sitting on the cafeteria table in his usual seat.

The only thing sitting on his lap and couldn't get a freaking seat on her ass was the brunette girl who I suppose was Ariana.

I rolled my eyes and as we sat at the far corner away from everyone and also away from Noah and his girlfriend.

Fuck I was stupid jealous.

I needed a break.

I sigh and grabbed the juice box while emptying the content.

"Auggie you look super jealous alright". Lisa added with a smirk.

" I have to move on from this dipshit". I added without denying that I was mad jealous. I really was fuming but what could I do.

I am hurt.

"I know, you have to boy cause there are many fish in the pond". She said and I nodded in return.

" Well, anyways we are going to the match right? ". Lisa asked and me being lost in thoughts had no idea what she was talking about.

" What match? ". I asked back and she sigh " There is a basketball match this Saturday remember... Between the wolves and wyvern. Your brother is playing too".

"Yeah., I guess we have to go atleast". I scrunched my nose. " That doesn't look like you want to go though". Lisa joked.

Lunch ended in a quick and so did the class. School was boring and i was not having the best of my life either.

An unrequited love for someone as straight as a pole.

I sigh and walked out of the campus. Looking around the open campus.

I saw keith and noah along with his friends heading to the gymnasium building.

I had this sudden urge to watch them practice. I know I won't be the only person in there cause of course the different group of girls and cheerleading squad would be flaunting since class already ended and I was straight going to get myself hurt.

I am going to get myself hurt.

I sigh and slowly led myself to the gym. I saw Keith and Noah throwing some basketball in the hoops and Noah ran back at the side of the court throwing a three pointer and all the girls gave a squeak.

Keith and Noah laughed and giggled over something. They were definitely having fun warming up and to see him smile was the best feeling.

Ace caught my presence as he waved at me from the bench and I waved back. Followed with Mac and I did the same gesture. Who knew a simple video game would really make us friends.

When suddenly a ball came flying to my face hitting me right at my nose. I dropped down hard on the ground and the pain in my nose made my eyes water not because I wanted to cry. I felt the blood tricking down and I gripped my nose as soon as I felt the blood oozing out.

"What the!!! August". My brother bellowed as I sat on the gym clean floor. " I'm okay". I assured still holding on to my nose. He came running and pushed my head up.

Noah came following Keith. He placed a towel on my nose with his hands and my heart beat 10x faster.

"Next time don't just stand  at the entrance of the court okay, you can stand in the middle of the court and earn a broken nose too". Noah sarcastically commented while his hands still placed the towel on my nose.

I blushed and Keith let out a laugh.

" Seriously go easy with this light head". Keith said giggling.

"Let me drive you home". Keith said as he got up and Noah offered " No, I'll drive him home.., it's my fault the ball hit him anyways".

I shrugged and now holding on to the piece of cloth I muffled a small voice "it's alright both of you., don't trouble yourself and continue practicing".

Noah stood up and pulling me up along with him.

" I will give him a quick ride and head back for practice. Your the captain they will need you". He said with his tone which sounded like it was final. Keith nodded "kay, you cool with it Auggie? ". And I looked at Noah and nodded.

By then the bleeding had stopped and I held on to the towel. " I'll discard it and get a new one". I said with a soft tone. I was embarrassed.

"No need for that". Noah added.

He got on his varsity over his basketball jersey number 13 and we walked to his car in silence.

He got in at the driver seat and I walked behind to sit at the back of the car when Noah scoffed " I won't bite princess ". I rolled my eyes and got inside the passenger seat.

I was sitting next to Noah in his car. He looked hot as he drove with one hand and he popped up a cigarette from the counter. " Do you mind? ". He questioned and I said " Yes". And earned a glare while I shook my head and said "nope.., not at all".

He lid the cigarette and puffed out a smoke which made me like him even more.

"Want to try". He asked

It felt like he was trying to keep a conversation going on. " I could but I don't know how" I said blushing.

He angled his hands to my side with the cigarette between his middle and index finger. "Just suck in the smoke and let the air out". He said unbothered looking at the road.

I didn't know if I should take the cigarette from his hands but it was his so I complied and brought my lip to the tip end of the cigarette. He held on it casually and I sucked in the smoke which made me cough out.

I coughed and let out a chuckle.

" No". I said through the coughs.

Noah smirked while he finished the cigarette we shared. It was an indirect kiss.

I blush and my face felt warm.

We drove in silence.

"Here you go princess". He said while stopping the car outside my house.

"Thanks". I said and got out of the car.

He nodded.

Well you must be thinking this is the part where things progress but NO.

He drove off without second glance.

What miracle did anyone of you thought would happen?

I sigh and got in.
