Chereads / Beyond the hurt / Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

Samuel's POV

To say I am feeling over the moon is an understatement, I am so happy right now that I can't seem to control myself. She said she really hasn't forgiven me but I know she will soon because my kitten cant really do without me as I can't do without her

Fighting to keep the smile off my face, I remember when we gave ourselves nicknames or rather when i made us give ourselves nicknames cause she wasn't willing

"Hey you little girl"

"I am not little" she huffs out

"You are"

"I am not "

"Whatever... Angel"

"What?"

"Let's give ourselves nicknames"

"Why should we do that ?"

"So we can have special names for each other, dummy "

" First of all, I am not a dummy cause I am brighter than you and secondly I don't want to have 'special' names with you "

" Why are you like this ? "

" Like what? "

" THIS"

" Ask nicely and I'll consider it"

" Can you please let us give each other nicknames "

" Hmmmmm, no"

" Come on"

" Fine, which nickname would you give me ? "

" I think your feisty attitude is similar to that of a kitten when provoked so, I am thinking of kitten"

" WHAT?!, kittens are cute and I have nothing against them but... "

" But nothing "

" Ugh, fine "

" Which nickname do you think is suitable for my handsome self ? "

" You are one narcissistic idiot "

" Just answer me"

" I can't call you a dog, or a tortoise even though you are kind of slow, I can't call you a goat so I think I'll just go with Sammy "

" That's good, I love it"

*End of flashback*

Whistling a tune to myself, I get down from the car and move towards the building of my house. Ugh I am so tired. Groaning as I bring out my phone

*One new message from Alex*

*Hey Sam, have you heard the latest news ?*

*No I haven't*

*I bet you want to know*

*No I don't*

*Why are you like this ?*

*You know I am not a fan of gossip and all that shit*

"Hey mum"

"How are you ?"

"I am very fine thank you"

"How was school today darling?"

"School was fantastic"

"For you to say school was fantastic that means something good happened today, what can it be ?"

"Take a guess mum "

"Angel has stopped ignoring you ? "

" Yup, we reached a consensual agreement today " I say while not being able to stop the smile on my face

"That's nice"

"I'll be in my room, I want to freshen up"

"Okay, be fast and come down for dinner "

"Alright mum, love you "

Upon getting to my room, I saw Alex's message *I know but you really have to hear this*. I decided to call him

Ring ring

"Hey man, what do you have to say ?"

"Hey, you wouldn't believe what I heard from a particular birdie "

"Surprise me"

*Clears throat over the phone* Apparently, after you left Elizabeth in the hallway, Michael walked up to her and was hitting on her "

Gritting my teeth, I bark out" doesn't he know she's taken?"

"I don't think he did and even if he did I don't blame the guy cause apparently she was leading him on"

" You are kidding right? "

" Nope, not kidding at all"

" Where did you hear this baseless rumour from ? "

" Israel "

" What?! "

" Yeah, Israel and you know better than to think he's lying since he's her brother"

With a shaky voice, I tell him" thanks man, I will talk to you later"

"Stay safe and cool headed "

"Fuck off"

"But seriously, I am genuinely curious, why did you take her back after what she did the first time ?"

"I guess I still loved her, sue me and I really didn't believe she would leave me for HIM"

" But she did and she might try it again with Michael "

"I know" I groan

"You know you deserve better"

" I know but I don't see anyone better near me "

" Are you kidding me ?, what is Angel?, if I were you, I'd just ask her out"

" Are you silly?, she's my best friend and get those silly ideas out of your head"

" Yeah, I know and that makes it better cause she knows you even better than me, so what else do you need ?

"Don't confuse me , bye "

"Okay fine but please don't dwell on that cheater's matter"

"Don't call her that" I say out of habit

"Are you stupid?, you're still defending her ?"

"Whatever, bye" I mutter

*End of phone conversation*

" Samuel, it's time for dinner"

" I'm coming mum"

Deciding to listen to Alex and not dwell on anything and leave it till tomorrow, I went downstairs for dinner. After praying over our food, I ask " is dad coming home tonight ?, it's already late"

" No, he's not coming back"

" Why?, did you guys have any argument? "

" No, not at all he's on the night shift "

" Oh okay"

AFTER DINNER

I laid on my bed and closed my eyes but I still couldn't sleep, taking my phone from the nightstand, i message Angel

'hey you'

'what?'

'nothing'

' and I have a name and it's not "hey you"

'i know, kitten'

'i told you to stop calling me that'. I could practically see her roll her eyes from her text.

'i know but since when did I start listening to you ? '

'since never '

'good to have you know that'

'Good night'

' what, why ? '

'i have school tomorrow '

'you know we don't actually have to go right ? '

' I know'

'Great, let's go out tomorrow '

' Where are we going ? '

'To get ice cream'

' What if I don't want to ? '

' Oh you will '

' Why? '

' Cause you love ice cream and you love me too'

' I think you misunderstood the meaning of love mister'

' Whatever, you know it's true'

' Fine, I'll go. You know you're such a bad influence on me ? '

' You love it'

'Good night '

' Night and be ready by twelve tomorrow, I'll pick you up'

' Okay '

' See you tomorrow '

Turning off my phone, I closed my eyes and this time I was able to sleep, I slept with a smile on my face, worried forgotten and only looking forward to my little outing with my best friend tomorrow
