And that is the story, since that day he has said nice things to me and acted impulsively, he has been so cloying that I had no choice but to resort to violence to stop him. Although he seems to like it.
Anyway, today is the day I have to give you an answer; I thought about it enough and I think I already have it clear.
We went back to the classroom and I sat in my seat.
"Well, students, we will continue with...
A teacher came in and began to teach the class.
(+)(+)(+)
A few hours passed and the bell rang again.
Just like before, he and I headed to the cafeteria. He invited me again, so I went to find a seat.
In a few minutes he came back with my sandwich and his food.
"How about we eat outside?"
he asked me before sitting down.
Consider it, it is true that it is foggy outside, but despite that it is not too cold.
Anyway, we both have our coats.
I nodded and took my sandwich, he for his part left the trays on top of the trash can and came back.
-Come on
I followed him as he took the lead. We walked down the hall to a door, then out.
Outside you couldn't see anything, but we had been in this school for a long time; It was not difficult for us to locate ourselves.
I tried to look around, when suddenly I felt a warm hand grasping mine.
—We can get lost, it's better not to get separated.
He gave a terrible excuse before my eyes. I considered letting go, but they weren't that bad; I could let it go this time.
That being said, just because I agree doesn't mean I'm not ashamed of it, my face turned a slight shade of red.
You can't blame me, he's the first person (besides my parents) to behave so close. That, coupled with the fact that I've never been in a romantic relationship…it's hard not to blush.
While he debated with myself, he spoke.
—Okay, we're here.
I looked ahead and saw a couple of swings hanging out in the open.
—Thank God this school is for all ages, we can use the games used by primary school children
He exclaimed as he went to the right swing and sat down, I for my part followed him and sat on the left swing.
"Okay, time to eat.
He unwrapped his food and began to eat greedily. I looked at him for a moment, wondering why he brought us here.
I moved my head from side to side to clear those thoughts, and began to eat slowly.
Minutes passed. At some point he got up and walked to the front, I didn't pay attention to him; the sandwich is too good.
When I finished I gave a small burp and started to drink water.
—Alexa
When he called out to me I raised my head, waiting for his next words.
-What is your answer?
This was unexpected, so much so that the water he was drinking almost went into my lungs; I had to cough several times to keep from choking.
I looked at him and saw a serious look in his eyes.
"I waited patiently all morning, but you didn't even mention it."
So that was the reason why I felt his gaze throughout the class, it seems I have to answer.
I put the things on the ground and stood up, then walked towards him.
His face broke, the previous seriousness dissolved, leaving only a nervous and restless expression.
I stood in front of him and closed my eyes for a second. After ordering my thoughts and confirming what I feel, I opened them again and took two more steps.
-Are you angry…
I didn't give him time to speak, using my lips I closed his mouth and silenced him by force. It only lasted a second, but it was enough to convey my feelings for him.
His eyes widened in surprise, then disbelief and finally joy.
"T-That's a…"
He left the question open, but I knew what he meant. I nodded in response.
-I AM SO HAPPY!
He screamed and hugged me tight. I had to use a lot of strength in my legs to keep from falling down next to him.
—Thank you, Alexa, thank you for giving me the opportunity to make you happy.
I laughed and brought up a question he had had all week.
"Ah… ha ha ha, I watched a lot of romantic videos and movies to be able to speak properly with you.
I rolled my eyes and stroked his head, then gave him another kiss.
I told him that it was not necessary, I like him, only him, not a forced personality.
"Okay, okay, I won't do it again."
After a few seconds we let go.
I suggested we go back and he agreed.
We came back holding hands, but this time it wasn't to "not get lost", this time it was because we were a couple.
We got to the main building and we didn't let go, this school was something liberal, as long as we didn't do something indecent we were allowed to do this.
It was still a while before the entrance time, so we found a bench and sat down.
For several minutes we didn't say anything, although the truth was not necessary, just being with him is enough.
"You know, I was sure you would reject me."
He said to himself as he looked ahead.
I asked him why he thought that.
—Well, you're… you know, I didn't think you liked me I laughed for a moment, then looked at his shoulder and, after hesitating a bit, leaned my head over it.
I told him that I had been in love with him for many months, that I had wanted this moment for a long time, but I did not imagine that he would like me too.
—Heh, heh, I tried to keep my distance so as not to scare you, it was difficult, but I did it; you didn't know anything
I repeated the last sentence, emphasizing that he is a good actor.
He smiled at me and leaned his head against mine a little.
"But you know, I'm glad I waited; That confirms that my feelings were not fleeting, but authentic.
I didn't say anything, I just smiled and enjoyed the moment.
A few minutes passed and the bell rang, so he raised his head and I lifted mine, then we stood up.
We walked to the classroom and entered.
The first thing I noticed upon entering was that everyone was looking at us, including the teacher.
—Congratulations, Alexa and Angel
Said one of our companions; immediately began a wave of congratulations from everyone.
Shame washed over me, I just bowed my head and walked to my seat.
—Alexa, I love you!
Ángel said in front of the whole class to later return to the seat behind him.
My face couldn't get redder, right now I wish I could find a hole and bury myself in it forever.
As revenge, when Ángel passed close to me, I hit him on the right side.
Angel didn't say anything, but I'm sure I heard a little groan.
While thinking about what could hurt more, the teacher spoke.
—Alexa, Ángel, congratulations to both of you, the truth is that I, like all your classmates, expected you to become a couple; They are good students and people, therefore, they deserve the best. I wish them much success in their future relationship.
Followed by the teacher's words, our classmates applauded.
One good thing about small classes is this, we all know each other. We may not be friends as such, but we support each other.
—Professor, I promise that I will always make Alexa happy.
The teacher laughed and said.
—You shouldn't be saying this to me, you should start thinking about what you're going to tell Alexa's father, he's the one you have to convince
Angel immediately froze in place of him; I laughed at this.
The truth is, since I've been a friend (now a couple) of Ángel, the only thing that has stopped his impulsive personality has been my dad. I honestly believe that he is afraid of her, or even worse, panicked.
"Ha ha... I'll try."
-I wish you luck
After that, the teacher started the class.
(+)(+)(+)
-Good, see you tomorrow
The teacher dismissed the class and walked out the door.
I sighed and put all the things in my backpack, then I closed it and finally I put it on my back.
As I was preparing to get up I happened to see outside the window; the fog had not dispersed, indeed, it seemed even thicker. For a moment I thought if I should call dad to come pick us up, but after considering it I shook my head; he is in a meeting today, I don't want him to lose potential business because of me.
-Come on
Angel passed close to me and urged me to follow him, so I got rid of previous thoughts and followed him.
We left the classroom; We walked through the corridors, on the way I said goodbye to some people; we went through the school gate; finally we were outside.
Just like every day we turn to the path to the right and follow it. We went on like this for a while, talking about a few irrelevant things along the way.
Finally we come to a crossing with a zebra crossing.
The fog doesn't let you see anything.
Angel said as he strained his eyes to try to see something.
I agreed with him and looked at the traffic light, the red color that indicates that we stop was barely visible to the eye.
I took out my phone and looked up the weather forecast. After looking at today's forecast I shook my head; apparently the fog will continue until tomorrow morning.
-Come on
I took my head off my phone and looked up. The traffic light was green.
We start walking.
Ángel took a few steps forward and turned around; he started walking backwards.
"You know, there's a candy store up ahead, do you want to go?"
I meditated for a moment and nodded. I didn't really like sweets, but if it's one or two I don't care.
"Okay, there's a new name candy..."
The following is impossible to narrate, not even I know what happened.
The only thing I know is that my body felt a blow with unimaginable force in my legs.
"Ale...!"
I heard a gasp from Angel, but I'm not sure of it.
I don't know when, but my body went flying and hit something hard and cold, then I spun around a few times and hit something that made me stop.
My consciousness didn't go further than that, it only lasted for a second, I immediately passed out.
