He drops his hand from my lips to my jaw and leans in. His blue eyes staring at me with intensity.

OMG!! I think we are really gonna kiss

But just then, someone decides to yell my name from behind. We pull apart from each other, and I look away blushing.

I turn around to see who called me and ruined the moment. I see Jackson smirking and grinning from ear to ear.

"I hope I didn't interrupt anything"

"No its okay"

I glare at him with the knowing smile on his face. He looks at Andrew and walks over

"Hey"

"Hey am Andrew"

"I am Jackson, nice to finally meet you"

"Nice to meet you too"

"I hope the practical was easy"

"It was, mainly because Bella was a serious smarty pants"

"Haha that's all thanks to me"

"Ooo then you are a great teacher"

I didn't know whether it was me but I saw sadness and disappointment in Andrew's eyes.

"Emmm okay I think its time for me to leave"

"Okay see ya"

"Bye"

I felt like I should go meet Andrew and talk to him but I knew I couldn't and shouldn't.

I turn back to look at Jackson and I see him playfully laughing and smiling at me.

"So how was your time with Lily"

"It was amazing, she's so amazing"

"Yeah I kinda noticed"

"We became good friends and we have a lot of things in common, and she thinks am really cool"

"That's thanks to me"

"What do you mean??"

"I put in a lot of good words for you when I talked to her"

"Seriously, thanks Damsel"

"Welcome but those are just words, I need some serious benefits"

"Okay what do you want"

"Ice cream"

"Bella seriously"

"If you wanna show your gratitude, pay up boy"

"Fine"

"Yipee and this babe wins again"

I walk out with a big and proud smile on my face. I decide to head to the library and grab some books before going to my room.

I enter the library and see Andrew but instead of a book or something in his hand. He is sitting there all by himself.

I head over to where he is and grab a chair, sitting beside him.

"Aren't you suppose to be reading a book"

"Yeah but its not so nice reading alone"

"Ooo I can keep you company"

"Are you sure, I mean I thought you were with Jackson"

"Yea but I can still hang around"

"OK if you say so"

We grab books, asking each other questions and teasing each other when we lose. Soon we are through reading

"I really wish we could do this more often"

"Of course!! Why not??"

"But I thought you read with Jackson"

"Yeah I do but not all the time"

"So we can be reading partners again"

"Yeah am ready to have that adventure again"

We both giggle and laugh.

"Am happy you feel that way"

"Me too!! Okay I have to go. See ya"

I wave goodbye before heading to my hostel. Happy that me and Andrew were friends again.
