129 His gift
Donna
I made sure to arrive early in school the next day, since I don’t have a mobile phone. I want to try my best and make Xander fall in love with me since we only have two weeks before graduation. I composed a heartwarming good morning message which I sneaked under his favorite locker
I was lucky that I was the first person to come to our first class for the day and that’s why I have the chance to do so. I sat at my usual spot which was beside the window, students already start entering the class, I saw when Xander entered with his brother’s, our eyes met but I was quick to look away, he walked to his favorite locker and like I expected he saw my note, I was watching him all through
Immediately he finished reading the note, he tucked it into his pant pocket and looked towards my side, this time around I didn’t look away not until he winked at me, gosh…. i felt butterflies in my tummy, I could hold his dazzling gaze anymore so I looked away, Ella came to his seat and tried talking to him but he ignored her and stood up
I was shocked when he started walking toward me, what is he doing?
He stopped right before me and took my right hand,
“Let’s talk outside” He said and dragged me out of the class. His brothers smiled at me, making me wonder what’s going on. He took me to the rooftop, it was quiet and calm. I was nervous, why is he acting this way, does it mean he doesn’t like the note
“Why didn’t you give me the note yourself?” He asked looking so pissed, I couldn’t look him in the eyes, he looked upset
“I……I….. I……” I kept on stuttering with my face focused on the ground
“Look at me while talking” He ordered making me look up immediately, he took low and predatory steps towards me, as he stood so close to me, his height towering over me, while I had to look up into his gorgeous eyes,
“Now answer me” He dared
“I…. I….”
“Fuck! Donna don’t fucking stutter” He curse looking more pissed
“Hmmm” I nodded and gulped down unknown saliva, building more courage
“I was afraid someone might see me giving the note to you”
“You’re not proud?”
“Hmmm” I shook my head negatively,
He hissed and ruffled his hair in frustration
“If you’re not proud of yourself then why do you want to be with me?”
“No…no…. it’s not like I’m not proud of myself” I corrected immediately
“Then what?”
“It’s just that I’m a scholarship student, I’m not like you guys who all come from rich homes, my scholarship might get terminated if someone reports me, you have a lot of girls admirers”
“Shit! Donna you’re driving me crazy, come here” He said with his arms wide open, I was shy as I embraced him, his fragrance welcomed me, he smelled so good that I didn’t want to stop hugging him.
“As long as I’m here, nobody will do anything to you okay?”
“Okay” I smiled, we pulled away from the big and I couldn’t stop smiling and blushing,
“Get ready I’m taking you somewhere after school”
“After school?”
“Hmmm, you don’t want to?”
“No.. no.. of course I want”
“Better” He smiled and tuck his two hands in his pant pocket like he always do
“See you after school” He said and left. I stood there blushing and smiling like a fool.
“You think you won?” I heard a voice behind me and turned to see it’s Ella and her group
“What do you want?” I asked calmly, looking at them as they all looked like they wanted to murder me. It turns out they hide by the corner, eavesdropping on us. They walked and stopped right in front of me,
“Just because he made you feel special now doesn’t mean he won’t dump you later like he did to every one of us” Ella spiteBelongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
I smile and folded my two hand below my boobs challenging her
“You’re wrong actually I’m the one chasing him and not the other way round, so whether he will dump me or not, is one of your crazy assumption” I said proudly
“How dare you!” She fumed and made to charge towards me
“Lay your hand on her and kiss your graduation goodbye” I heard Xander’s voice, they all turned and was shocked to see him standing behind us
“You all should Scram now” He said calmly but deadly, Ella looked at me carefully and left with her minions, I couldn’t stop smiling
“Are you okay?” He asked and I nodded happily
“You came to save me”
“I thought you’re afraid?” He smiled
“I don’t have a choice but to act brave” I pouted,
“Come let’s go to class” He said extending his right hand ,
“Together?”
“You don’t want to?”
“Of course I want” I said and ran to him, I placed my on his and we left together, people kept on whispering
“Are they now dating?”
“They look so good”
“Damn she’s pretty”
“He’s fucking handsome”
I couldn’t stop smiling, we got to the class and he walked me to my seat before going to his…and throughout the whole day the class couldn’t stop talking about us.
School was over, I was surprised when Xander came to me, he took my hand as we left with his brother,
“Damn are you guys dating?” Xavier asked, he was with his girlfriend Lily
“Not yet” Xander replied
“You both looked cute already” Montan their friend replied
“Don’t worry my brother might be crazy but he’s good for you” Xacky the lady of the triplet winked
“Thank you guys” I smiled, I never knew they were this friendly and warm.
“We are going guys see you guys later at home” Xander said to his brothers and they nodded, entering their separate cars. Xander opened his car door for me and I entered, he entered through the driver’s seat and drove off. I wanted to ask where he was driving to but I decided against it
He drove into a Mall and packed, I wanted to step down on my own when he told me to wait, he walk to my side and opened the car door for me
“Thank you” I smiled and stepped down from the car, he took my hand as we started walking inside the mall, it was a big one, we walked to the section where they sell different kinds of cellphone, it was all expensive and luxurious phones normally owned by rich people
“Pick the one you want”
“Huh?!” I nearly screamed, he shook his head and picked the latest iPhone for me and also bought a sim,
“Here package it” He said to one of the servers in the mall, he paid with his credit card and soon our package arrived. He collected it and held my hand as we left the mall. I was still in shock. We got into the car and he asked
“Address?”
“Ummm you don’t have to”
“Now….” He ordered, and I didn’t know when my house address slipped from my mouth immediately, he smirked and revised the car as he drove off, he always have a way of making me give in
He stopped right before my neighborhood
“Is this where you leave?” He asked and I nodded
“It’s my neighborhood” It was a small neighborhood filled with only poor people like me, but we all lived happily.
“Here have this, so you won’t need to call with your mother’s cellphone, and don’t worry everything you need is in the cell phone already”
“I didn’t know what to do, no one has ever treated me this way before, I was so close to tears that I hugged him tightly to myself.
I pulled away from the hug feeling so shy, I quickly step down from the car.
“Bye…..” I smiled at him from outside before running towards my neighborhood.
