Chereads / The Fear That Follows / Chapter 2 - Suspicion

Chapter 2 - Suspicion

David and I started hanging out, it turned out pretty well, it kinda piss me off how he follows me everywhere I go.

Today we're at the mall walking around when I saw my girlfriend, Amelia. Amelia is the best girlfriend I ever had, I'm lucky to have her by my side.

I hugged Amelia and patted her head as David walked behind me with an unknown expression, I don't know if he's just giving me a sarcastic smile or not, it's giving me chills.

"Babe, I missed you." Amelia said hugging me as I chuckled and squeezed her cheek.

"And what are you doing here? Didn't I tell you to text me before you hang out?" I crossed my arms as I scold Amelia.

Amelia noticed David staring at her that made her uncomfortable so she wrapped her arms around my arm as I looked at her.

"Hey, who's that scary tall guy? He's staring at me like he's going to eat me." Amelia whispered to my ear as I chuckled.

"Don't worry, that's only my friend, he's David, well I think he's just curious about you." I said with a smile as she just nodded.

I walked toward David and stopped in front of him while Amelia was still clinging into my arm.

"David, this is my girlfriend, Amelia. Amelia, this is David, my friend." I said with a smile but David's expression is unreadable.

"Nice to meet you." David said in a neutral tone of voice as Amelia smiled a little and waved hi.

-the next day-

I was so tired I got lazy to go to school, but I went to school anyway, I don't want the teacher will scold me again.

When I have nothing to do in my room I played video games and eventually fall asleep on the bed.

After sleeping for an hour, I woke up to see David sitting the edge of the bed as I flinched being surprised.

"What the hell—jesus christ, David!" I yelled as I heard David chuckled.

"Why didn't you come to school today?" David asked as I lay back down on the bed as I let out a deep sigh.

"I got lazy." I said looking at the ceiling.

"Studying is tiring you know?" I chuckled a bit as David chuckled too.

"I was worried, I thought you're sick or something." David said with a smile and caressed my hair as I giggled.

"You know, I thought you still hate me after all those memories with you, arguing and fighting." I laughed as my eyes shifted to David's eyes.

"Yeah the day I always win." David snickered slightly as I sat up from bed and gave him a playful shove.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever man." I said before laying back down when I heard my phone got an notification.

When I picked it up it was my girlfriend who texted me and that made me smile.

"Hey, who are you texting?" David asked trying to peek on my phone as I showed him our conversation.

"Amelia wants to meet me up tomorrow, because we're going on a date!" I yelled as I chuckled slightly and I saw David's unreadable expression again, he's so suspicious.

-The next day-

The class just ended and I was waiting patiently for Amelia outside the school gate but I didn't saw her yet, until I spotted her friends nearby and approached them.

"Hey, have you seen Amelia?" I asked worriedly as Amelia's friends looked at each other and looked back to me.

"Maybe she went home already." One of her friends said but that made me confused.

Because, Amelia always wait for me outside the school gate but I didn't overthink and just walked away and thanked her friends.

I was a bit sad not seeing my girlfriend, I texted her several times, I missed her already.

I was waiting for her reply when I saw her seen my message and typing, I was so happy she's online now.

Not until I saw Amelia's message, my smile dropped, she said "let's break up, sorry, I really don't think our relationship will work." Amelia message.

That really broke my heart and I got very, very sad. I was broken hearted, I thought of drinking alcohol with David.

I texted him saying I want to drink today as David respond with a like as I smiled a bit. David gave his address to me.

I dressed up and left the house, once I arrived I knocked inside David's door but no answer the door only creaked open.

"That David is surely careless, he left his door unlocked." I sighed in disappointment as I stepped inside and just waited for him on the couch.

My eyes darted in their living room as I heard the front door opened and saw David, holding a plastic with a meat on it.

"Oh, you're here already, sorry, I got busy." David said with a smile walking toward the kitchen placing the plastic on the counter.

"Wow, you didn't tell me you're going to buy a meat first." I said with a chuckle as David giggled.

"I want us to have food while drinking." David said with a playful smile as I chuckled.

I watched David cook the meat, he was skillful not gonna lie, the way he chopped the meat.

Once David's done at cooking the food he served it to me.

"Try it." David suggest as I nodded taking the fork as I ate the meat and it was delicious.

"Wow, it's so good. What kind of meat is this?" I asked while eating as David chuckled.

"An ordinary meat." David said with a satisfied smile only watching me eating.
