Angel's POV

Hi my name is Angel, I am a nineteen year old girl, i don't really like socializing with people apart from my best friend Samuel, but that doesn't mean i don't have friends, i do have friends i just don't roll with them much. Me and samuel have been best friends since diapers and I can proudly say I know almost everything about him,I know all his firsts..

The first time he lost a tooth,the first time he got into a fight,the first time he cried over a girl,the first time he hit the gym and his first love.

He's tall, gorgeous and he's definitely every girls dream including me, I've always thought he was cute when we were little but as we were growing up, i realised he wasn't so cute anymore,he was leaning more on the hot side..I can't help myself from falling more for him even when i know we can never be together cause he doesn't look at me that way at all not even once

whenever I saw him with other girls, I got jealous but I had this self made fantasy that he was gonna realize his love for me, leave whoever he was with and just sweep me into his arms and kiss me senseless but like I said it's a fantasy and a stupid one at that ..

Well, I finish secondary school in the next three weeks, we are through with our ssce exams and our graduation is also coming up, I don't even wanna think about the dress and makeup that I am supposed to wear, i hate dressing girly ,it's a burden

To top up all this, my school insisted we come to school to take classes that can help us in building a better future like they said, i think it's just total bullshit.

Just thinking about it gives me the hick, thinking about the last few weeks of my life, I felt another headache coming on.i just want to take a break from school and everyone around me for some time but that's practically impossible.

Making my way into my last class for the day, i sigh as I come across the main reason for my sleepless nights and headaches "SAMUEL" and his not so nice ex girlfriend turn girlfriend, i've been trying to avoid him but that is proving harder than expected, i am really mad at him because he just got back with his ex after she cheated on his ass,it's the fact that i was the one that had sleepless nights because of him, I spent weeks consoling him and petting him to sleep, I had to stay with him because his parents couldn't even get him to come out of his room talk less of getting him to eat,now she just gave him an insincere apology and he accepted her back and they are acting all lovey dovey ,i might as well just run away from him before i get caught....

"hey,where have you been all day?, I haven't seen you around ?"

too late I guess,turning around and facing my him and his glaring girlfriend, girl chill he doesn't even notice me .

"uh,I have been having classes because we are in school if you didn't realise that and it's not my fault that your eyes aren't working properly cause I attended all my classes today "

" I know you're in school cause I'm also here and my eyes are working perfectly fine" he says with a smirk...taking a deep breath,i was about to respond when i got interrupted

"Angel,Samuel and Elizabeth care to tell the class why you're standing and talking while the class is starting?"

shit.. I forgot we were in class." I am very sorry ma"

" just sit down and let's start the class"

Mumbling a soft yes ma'am I went to my seat and sat down,just as I was about to get comfortable,a paper plane was thrown across my table... I unfolded it and I immediately knew who sent it

"what's wrong with you today ?"

"nothing" I write back

" you have that look on your face "

" what look ?"

" the look you have when you're angry with me"

Why wouldn't I be, when you guys are just disgusting me .

" I don't have any look on my face,dummy"

" now I know you're angry at me,what did I do?,tell me and I'll apologize "

this is one of the things he does that made me fall for him, he cares for me but it also pains me because he's only caring for me as a friend and he only sees me as a friend....

Deciding not to reply anymore, I crumbled the paper and placed it under my desk and tried to focus on what the teacher was saying while praying that time passes by quickly

AFTER CLASS

I literally ran out of class the moment the bell rang signalling the end of class because I don't want him to confront me again only stopping when i reached the school gate, I brought out my phone to call my dad

"hello, dad, where are you ?"

"I'm at the gate by the other side dear" he replied

"oh, I'm on my way there" and I ended the call, putting my phone in my skirt pocket, I moved to the gate and crossed the road to meet my dad

"how was school today, darling?" he asked as I sat in the car

" It was just the same as always, very stressful " I told him while yawning

" Tired ?

"very tired"

" you should sleep then, I'll wake you up when we get home

" Thanks dad" I say shifting in my seat and trying to get comfortable as I doze off

THIRTY MINUTES LATER

" wake up,we are home" dad says while smiling down at me

" when did we get home ?"

" not long ago" he replied

I just smiled and got out of the car, on getting to the sitting room, i perceived an aroma, smiling to myself I went to the kitchen and greeted my mum with a peck on her cheek

"how was school today dear?" my mum asks

"it was the same as everyday "

"Are you hungry?, I made your favorite"

"very hungry, can I eat now ?" I say while battling my lashes

"no, you dirty girl, go and wash up first and come downstairs for dinner"

"fine mum" I grumble

" I'll be back in a jiffy " I say while rushing upstairs to my room

Taking off my clothes, I take my towel and disappear into the shower , while in the shower I couldn't help reminiscing about me and Samuel's time together before he got himself a girlfriend at all, we were as close as we could get and he even promised me to never leave me alone and that he wouldn't allow any of his girlfriends to pull us apart but I guess that's just a silly promise.

Hearing my stomach grumble, I rush out of the shower and got dressed in my favorite pyjamas, a short tank top and shorts, picking up my phone I was surprised by the amount of missed calls and messages i saw and they were all from Samuel.

Opening his messages

" what's going on?"

"Are you ignoring me now ?"

"why didn't you pick my calls?"

"that's it, I'm coming over to your house "

" be there in thirty"

Wait what ?, why the heck is he coming over ?, it's not as if I killed his girlfriend or something, I went downstairs and sat down at the dining table after serving my food and I started eating my food, I practically moaned after i took the first bite. "ugh, this is so good mum"

"come on,don't talk with your mouth full" she says scolding me lightly.

After dinner, I went back to my room to text Samuel not to bother coming over that I was safe and sound that there was nothing to worry about, I haven't even started typing when there was a knock on my door

who can it be ?, my mum never knocks and my dad just calls me instead of knocking

"come in" I shout to the person at the other side of the door

" I was gonna enter even if you said I couldn't come in" Samuel says while glaring at me.

Gulping, I tentatively take a step back because he looked so terrifying yet hot at the same time, I never knew i could find someone's glaring face hot , I shook my head to get rid of my unholy thoughts

"why are you here ?" I ask

"You weren't picking my call, why did you do that ?, and you have been avoiding me also "

"I wasn't avoiding you ..."

" oh really, then what were you doing ?, playing hide and seek ?"

" why do you even care?"

" why wouldn't I care?"

" Just go and meet your girlfriend and leave me alone"

" what do you mean?"

" I was busy"

" You were busy?, too busy for me?"

" No, it's just..."

" What's going on with you?"

" you can't understand, was that the only reason you came here ?"

" so now you're also going to throw me out of your house ?"

" no, I wasn't going to do that, I was just asking and am not sorry for avoiding you, I had a lot on my mind and I was pissed at you "

" why?"

" seriously, why?, is that all you're gonna ask me ?, you took Elizabeth back Sammy , she cheated on you and you took her back, what if she does the same thing again?"

" she promised not to "

" really ?, she promised ?, was that not what she said before you guys started dating ?"

" stop judging her, you don't know anything about our relationship " he shouts at me

" oh , I don't know anything?, fine, I know nothing but I do know that i was the one that comforted you after she cheated on your ass and if she does it again, I'm never going to comfort you" i say with tears in my eyes

" Angel , I'm very sorry, I didn't mean to..."

" I don't wanna hear it, get the hell out of my house right now, if you dont wanna get castrated"
