Use Me All You Want

Chapter 1

But even as I watched Janrick with a mixture of admiration and longing, I couldn't shake the feeling of vulnerability that gnawed at the edges of my consciousness. What if Janrick caught me staring? What would he think of me, a mere bystander, admiring him from afar?

As if sensing my thoughts, Janrick's gaze flickered in my direction, and for a moment, our eyes met in a silent exchange. Heat flooded my cheeks as I quickly looked away, my heart racing with a mixture of excitement and trepidation.

Being caught red-handed gave me a wave of embarrassment.

I contemplated making a hasty exit after being caught in the act. I wanted to run and leave the place, but before I could even make a single move, Patch features suddenly showed up. He was holding an armful of drinks. Confusion washed over me as he handed me a bottle.

"That was for Janrick. Make sure you give it to him, okay?" his eyes gleaming with mischief.

My heart skipped a beat at Patch's suggestion, a surge of panic coursing through me at the mere thought of approaching Janrick. With a quick shake of my head, I silently conveyed my reluctance, my mind racing with a million reasons why I couldn't possibly go through with Patch's plan.

But Patch just shook his head in response, his determination unwavering as he urged me to take a chance, "Just do it. Don't worry. I'll make sure he won't have a single clue about your feelings. I gotchu."

As we continued to watch the dance practice, my nerves were on edge, each passing moment filled with a mixture of anticipation and anxiety. But as the dancers finally called for a short break, Patch saw it as the perfect opportunity to put his plan into action.

With a mischievous grin, Patch dragged me towards the stage where the dancers were gathered, his excitement palpable as he called for everyone's attention. Without missing a beat, he began distributing the drinks, his enthusiasm infectious as the dancers eagerly accepted. Patch then looked at me and gave me a wink as he secretly pointed the drinks I was holding and then looked at Janrick, who's currently wiping his sweat.

Despite my initial hesitation, I found myself swept up in the moment, a sense of camaraderie washing over me as I joined Patch in distributing the drinks.

I took a deep breath to gain some courage. And when I think I'm already ready, I immediately make some move towards him and nervously hand him a bottle.

I'm not even sure if he'll accept the drinks. One thing that's for sure is I'm ready just in case he would just turn back on me. After all, I wasn't expecting anything from him. But before he could even make a move, a hand pulled the drinks from me and put it in Janrick's palm.

"That drink was from my darling. You better drink that, or I'll surely smack your head." Pavee said with a threatening tone, which earns an eye roll from Janrick.

I can't help but bit my lower lip inside as I watch his moves. Damn, instead of getting offended, I can't help but be amazed. I even find it hot. Him rolling his eyes makes me adore him more. Shit! This is not good.

The fear of being caught looming over me, I quickly averted my gaze and made my way towards Patch, who was sporting a knowing smirk.Feeling the weight of Patch's teasing gaze, I sighed inwardly, knowing that my best friend wouldn't let me live this moment down anytime soon.

Despite my embarrassment, I mustered a whispered "thanks" to Patch, grateful for the opportunity he had provided me. He gave me a smile and a wink, too, as a response.

As I walked away, I couldn't shake the feeling of happiness that bubbled within me, grateful for the chance to stand in front of Janrick, even if only for a fleeting moment. I couldn't help but smile, knowing that no matter what obstacles lay ahead, I had a friend by my side who would always have my back.

"Happy?" Patch asked with a playful grin, causing me to blush furiously.

Unable to form a coherent response, I mumbled something unintelligible, my cheeks burning with embarrassment. But Patch wasn't about to let me off the hook that easily. "Come on, Davian, spill the beans! Did you have that magical feeling as if a zoo or butterflies flying inside your stomach?" he teased, nudging me with his elbow as we walked.

With each passing moment, Patch's relentless teasing only seemed to intensify, leaving me squirming with discomfort. But despite my best efforts to deflect his questions, Patch refused to let up, determined to get a reaction out of me.

As the day wore on, Patch's teasing continued unabated, following me like a shadow wherever I went. From the classroom to the hallway, his playful jabs seemed to echo in my ears, a constant reminder of the embarrassment I felt earlier.

Even as we parted ways at the end of the day, Patch couldn't resist getting in one final tease. "Well, Davian, looks like today was a big win for Team Davrick!" he exclaimed with a smirk, leaving me to groan in mock exasperation.

But deep down, amidst the teasing and the embarrassment, I couldn't deny the flutter of excitement that lingered in my heart. For in the midst of it all, I had gotten a glimpse of what it felt like to interact with my ultimate crush, and for that, I was grateful.
