My Heart With A Girl.

Chapter 14

17th October 2017

  Hazel's POV

Today I and Chris decided to grab a bite tonight at his favorite place 'Monsterwiches'. It's prominent for its toothsome sandwiches. And Chris loves sandwiches. Though I don't like sandwiches. But for Chris, I could do anything just to see a smiling and happy face on that monkey. Hope Chris wears his white shirt, which he wore when I saw him for the very first time.

It was almost evening and I was confused about what to wear. I took my phone and texted Chris, 'Shall I wear denim jeans or a dress?' 

After a minute or two, my phone vibrated. I had received a message reply from Chris. 'Why can't we go in sweatpants? It's more comforting.' Though I was expecting that he would ask me to wear a dress, his reply surprised me. He's damn crazy, just like me. It was one of my bucket-list wishes to go on a date in sweatpants. And Chris is unknowingly fulfilling it. I love him. Yes, I love him and today I'll confess it. Hope everything goes well

  Chris's POV

"Mom, I'm leaving. Going out with Sean and Justin for dinner. Will be back in an hour." I lied to her. I don't want to tell her that I'm going out to grab a bite with Hazel. She would ask me a million questions. I was about to leave and suddenly she shouts, "I got a call from school today. They said fought with a boy in your class. He was hurt pretty badly. Fuck.

Today at school, this annoying boy named Jack tried to bully me by grabbing my bag and tried to throw it. He joined the school this semester. Without hesitating, I grabbed his shirt and landed a hard punch on his face. He was knocked down to the ground and I was ended up in the principal's office for the rest of the day. 

"That kid tried to humiliate me in school." I tried defending myself.

"I don't care. Those kid's parents later went to school to complain about you." She fired back on me. Fuck, I got a gut feeling that this is not going to end well.

"Mom he started it. I just ended it." I again defended myself.

"You could've ended up complaining about him. Not by punching his face." She shouts, louder than last time.

"I'm sorry, will not repeat my mistake again. Can I leave already? My friends are waiting." I calmly said to her.

"No!" She exclaimed. "You are grounded for a week." She shouts. What the!

"Hell, no I'm grounded. You can't control me." I shout back.

"Yes, I can control you. I'm your mother." My mom is angry.

"You know what, I'm leaving. Bye, mom." I said and ran from my house. I was damn pissed on my mother.

I reached Monsterwiches, but there was no sign of Hazel. I tried calling her but she didn't pick up. I was angry with my mother for trying to imprison me in my room for a week. And now Hazel is making me angrier by being late. 

After a couple of minutes, I could see her coming. As advised, she was wearing black sweatpants and a sweatshirt. Fuck, I forgot to wear my pair of sweatpants. Instead, I was wearing my black shirt and black jeans. 

"Hey, monkey. Though this is not the dress code for tonight, the black shirt goes with you. You look handsome." She compliments me. Hell, I don't care about that. I'm still mad at my mom for being rude and on Hazel for coming late.

  Hazel's POV

"Yeah, whatever. What will you have? I'll go and get our order placed." He asked. Damn, he's again that 'arrogant Chris', who talks well when he's feeling good and talks rudely when he's feeling bad about something. 

"No need. I can get my order by myself." I told him, calmly. I'm not going to be treated based on his mood. If he's going to be like his, I'll rather walk out of his life and never disturb him again.

"Your call. I'll get a meatball sub for me." He tells and leaves the table. Why is he like this? Rude and arrogant?

After we placed our orders, I tried to avoid him by glancing at my cell phone.

"I and my mother fought tonight. I'm sorry Hazel. I wasn't planning to be a jackass tonight." He tells me. I'm glad that he told me about his problems. It means I really mean something in his life.

"It's okay. Hope you are feeling better now." I comforted him.

"After talking to my crackpot, I always feel comforted and good." He tells me. His feelings are confusing. Five minutes ago, he was rude and now, he's acting as if nothing happened between us. How can he shift his mood within seconds? That's weird.

"Hope you calling me crackpot makes you happy. Because it annoys me." I laugh on myself and Chris giggles. It really melts my heart after seeing him happy.

"You wanted to know about my past right? Tonight you've got one question to ask and I'll answer in honestly." He tells me. Woah, I never expected to ask him a question. Rather I thought he would come and tell me all at once.
