BAD BOY'S CRUSH - Episode 14
(Am like a moon???)
Bella’s POV
Seriously! This little brat had been eating all day
Really? I walked over to his table collecting the canned noodles he was eating
“Hey! You jerkie sister, hand me that food! “He scowled standing infront of me looking so taller than I was
“I won’t! You’ve been eating all day Brad, seriously and you never get fat. Look at how skinny you’re”I spoke gesturing to his light weight
“And how is that your business even if I eat every second
I’m hungry, don’t you see am a young teenager ”
I broke out in laughter at the mention of *Teenager*
“Teenager indeed”I said sarcastically and he frowned at me
“Bella go get the door, someone is knocking”mom sounded from the other room and I sighed giving the food back to him
“Mtcheeew”I heard him hiss as I walked out of the room going to get the door
I opened the door and my heart stopped again
I thought he wasn’t coming again, why is he here?
“I didnt cook dinner”was the first thing that came to my lips and he smirked coming close to me to the extent that his body was so next to mine
My body didn’t take that body nearness lightly, it heated up making me sweat unknowingly without words
“Is that a welcome”he said in a sort of whisper and I shivered terribly
“Oh… Uh.. I.. Welcome”
Why am I stuttering?
He smirked again before I made way for him to come in to the room
I closed the door behind me walking behind him till he settled down on our sofa
“Whoa, where is Brad? “He asked and I pointed upstairs meaning that he was in his room
“Still eating? “He added and I didn’t help laughing
He knew him for that, if you want to punish Brad deny him food and watch him cry like a baby
He laughed too before asking after my mom
“She’s knitting some clothes in her room”I replied his question and he nodded
“What do I offer you? “I asked nervously and he smiled showing that little dimple which appeared on one of his cheeks, it was cool… That’s all I can say
“I need food, I’m hungry like crazy “he said getting up and walking his way to our kitchen
He’s still Nicc who is not a stranger in our house whenever he comes around
Nicole’s POV
Whoa! I exclaimed putting a frying pan ontop of their gas cook and then searched for where they kept their cooking oil so I could add some to the already heated pan
“What are you doing here and in my mom’s kitchen Nicc!? “I heard Brad’s voice behind me and I hissed before turning to look at him
His expression was terrible towards me
I wore a cheerful smile towards him and he didn’t seem to be looking at my smile but my eyes
He walked over to the gas and turned it off coming back again to throw another last glare at me
“What are you doing here? “He asked rudely and I didn’t find it funny anymore with him
Why does he appear to h@?? me so much of late?
“Hey! What’s wrong? “I asked back and he scoffed ruffling his hair which appeared infront of his forehead
“Wrong? In my dad’s house? You shouldn’t be here and you know it punk! “He insulted and I suppressed my anger so I won’t hit him
“What did I do? “I asked politely and he scoffed again
“Get out of my mom’s kitchen first”he said pointing a way out for me and that was when Bella emerged
“What’s wrong? Brad! “She half yelled at her brother
“What! He shouldn’t be here after what he did to you!! “He yelled back looking really mean and angry
“I know am your younger brother but I feel your pain, who does he think he is? Someone who can toy with your feelings!!? ”
“I’m not complaining!! Did I? “She fired back trying to defend me but I got the message
She doesn’t deserve me at all cuz I always hurt her
“I don’t want to see him here, I don’t want to see him anywhere around you Bella”he thr_@tened casting me a very bad glare which made me wonder if he was still the Brad I knew or someone else
“Brad! What’s gotten into you? Are you okay? You’re talking to your big sister remember? “She reminded him but he scoffed again
“Really? “He asked this time standing infront of her sister
“You won’t like what I will do when I see him here in the next three minutes “he thr_@tened
She was looking terrified by the look on her face
She had never seen her brother get this mad before her likewise me
I didn’t want the both of them to fight because of me so I announced my leave to Bella
“Its okay Bella, maybe some other time
Your kid bro is not in a good mood to entertain jokes”I said trying to sound amusing but it wasn’t at all
Bella turned to me with pleading eyes
“I’m sorry… ”
“The time is counting “Brad said and walked out leaving the two of us
She sighed really frustrated
“Its okay”
I assured her
“I’m sorry”she apologized again
“If you’re that sorry, escort me then”I suggested and I felt her expression change to that of someone who wanted to say no
I understand, maybe I sounded demanding
“I get it, I can go alone”
“No no no no, I will escort you”she agreed and I smiled
I know she wouldn’t refuse me
Chloe’s POV
Oh my bad! He isn’t home yet! And it have been two hours since he left
d@mn! What are they doing now?
I can’t tell and what if I could tell?
I paced about the living room with my foot wears making noise on the hard floor
I checked the time again
*08:00pm*
What the fuvk! 08:00pm and he is not home yet?
He’s got to be kidding me? He is fuvking kidding me? Why her? That’s my crush for Pete’s sake!
Why would she be his childhood friend?
She shouldn’t be, she can’t be but she is!! Arrghh!
Maybe telling her how I feel will make me have her right?… No, we’re not that close.. I’m not sure she will even look at me with the kind of Nicc by her side?
Its impossible! Zayn’s call pulled into my phone making me more angrier that I didn’t know when I powered my phone off tossing it lightly to the bed
There is no way am eating or sleeping until that punk is back here
Never!
Bella’s POV
We trudged along the cool weather
It was chilling and enticing to the skin, part of me felt happy walking with him while part of me was so bad
Everything Brad said made sense, I didn’t know he really cared that much for me, I didn’t know he was hating Nicc just because of me
It was hurting to be with the person who told you things which you never imagined it will come from that person
Yet, I was happy cuz I was spending another time with him
He might not like me but he’s still my bosom friend
“Bella”he called softly breaking into my thoughts
“Yes? ”
He stopped walking pointing upwards to the sky and to the round full moon in the sky
My eyes followed his hand to the sky till I saw what he was pointing at
It was the moon!
“Look at it ”
“I’m looking at it”I replied our stares still at it
“Remember what I told you about it when you turned five? “He reminded taking me back to the past as at the time I turned five
It was the full moon like today, he ran to my house in the night and I was sitting by our window taking in the new fresh moon which counted my age
I was happy cuz my dad even got me a laptop then, he bursted into my room without my knowledge, he tiptoed to where I was by the window watching the moon and whispered :
“You’re like the moon up there Bella, you light the whole world, without you there is darkness for the world
Happy birthday ”
Those were his exact words and I couldn’t forget that in a hurry
I’m like a moon… I always told myself when it gets so hard for me
“Yeah”I replied him and he smiled
“Do you really believe that you’re like the moon till now? “He asked getting me confused about his question
Do I really feel like a moon up till now? I asked myself
“Yeah… I think “I shrugged and he smirked shifting his body to mine and raising his hand slowly to my head
He touched my hair and fluffed it making me blush so bad
I couldn’t help it at all
“I’m sorry about what I told you the last time when you…. ”
“I didnt mean that Nicc, I was just bluffing back then “I snapped feeling slightly embarrassed that he just recalled how I messed myself up all in the name of confessing my feelings to him
“You didn’t mean that and you cried hard, and your brother h@??s me too? And you always act nervous when you see me? ”
“Well… Uhm.. I.. ”
Am stuttering again!
“Do you really love me? “He asked making me freeze instantly….
