It's been two weeks of campaign and we are waiting for our election results which is to come few weeks from now. I'm seated in class with my head resting on my chair when someone sits on my seat. I raise my head and see Jaden smiling sheepishly.
"What do you want now Jaden?"
"Can't I see near you anymore?"
(Laughs) "I think Perry would want that more" I say this as Jaden and Perry has been acting all couple like since the previous week although I thought he was hitting on me. Guess its Perry after all.
"Just say you want Spence instead" Jaden has been telling me that Spence likes me which I don't believe and so I'm not surprised about what he's saying.
"Not now okay"
"When!!! Mira,Cant you see he likes you?"
"He doesn't okay. Stop reading meanings to things okay plus I got no time for this"
Just then, Spence comes in and asks for attention which is partially given to him as some students don't bulge.
"Okay guys,the principal sent an information about the date of our excursion and everything you need to know. Just check your email"
"Why wasn't this passed to an art student instead of a science"
"What's the difference as long as you just got the memo. Plus don't forget he's head over boys activities"I fired back
" Mouth Speak,I'm not surprised. Defend your crush"
Miss plumpy body as people call her says this
"I got no words for you plump. You are just not mature" I say this and leave the class angrily without even responding to Spence's call. I walk quickly and end up bumping into Perry and we both ended up laughing.
"Where did you go girl? Jaden has been looking for you everywhere?"
"Really!!what did he say?" She asks blushingly
"See her,I can see smiles written all over your face. He brought up Spence again"
"Why that tone?"
"That boyfriend just don't know when to stop"
"Spence might just be shy girl, I think he likes you"
"Spence Kimberly!!!Shy!!! You and Jaden really suite each other. Anyways you didn't kick the whole bf title,so its official"
"Not really but soon enough"
"Go on .."
"He asked me to be he's girl friend"
"And?"
"I told him to give me time to think. I'm just really scared Mira. Do I like him up to that"
"Of course you do. Just be sure of what you want and I'll support you"
"Thanks a lot babe"
"I always got you. So..you've heard about excursion?"
"Heard it's on our email"
"Oh yea. Spence talked about it"
"So you two talked uhn"
"Na...plumpy girl started pairing stuff so I had to leave"
"I can't see why you are getting angry except unless you like him"
"I don't okay,I just don't like this pairing stuff.
" Your action doesn't says so but...I rather leave you to think "
"Ya such a smart one. Let's get to class"
We head to class and then after the normal lecture, I go up to Aisha who is already busy listening to music in an empty room.
"Hey Aisha"
"Sup Mira"
"You've gotten news on exciting right?"
"Yea,it's on Friday"
"Uhm...I actually had something else to ask you. Can I?"
"Wow!!!since when do you need my permission. Hit me on it baby girl" So typical of Aisha
"Do you think Spence likes me?"
"Yes of course, you both already settled your differences. Ion see why you should be angry?" Godd...I feel like slapping her right now
"No ,not that type of like. I mean intimacy" I say this whilst hitting my head
"Not my fault you didn't structure it well. For your answer; ion remember you telling me about him making moves so it can be a no but from the way he acts in class ,I'll say a yes"
"Really!!!" I say this with puzzlement
"What!!!"
"You just made it more confusing"
"Ion know girl, you can do better by asking him "
"Na..I'll pass"
"I think you should tho"
"Hmm..na,no way. Don't get me into thinking of doing it"
"Suite your self and unanswered curiosity then"
We spend the whole day talking as the teachers have a meeting so there's no time to teach. I get home and decide to check my email for information about our excursion and get to know that its this week Friday. I'm about texting Perry when I get a beep from my phone. I open the phone to see the message and see its from Perry.
Perry: Hey babe,are you home?
I smile to the message and decide to text back.
Mira:Sure I am,you wanna drop by?
Perry:Yeah...the girls are at my place and we wanna plan the excursion and stuff.
Mira:Okay then, I'll wait for you all"
Perry:Kk,expect us ASAP,make sure to get some cookies done.
Mira:Whatever Perry,just come over.
I get to the kitchen and get all the ingredients for cookie making ready. I decide to wait for the girls to assist me in the baking whilst watching TV.
I seat up to an hour and I've yawned too much for my kind of person, I'm about drifting into dream land when I hear the door bell. I run close to the door but then walk back to the chair . I stand up and walk slowly when I realise they actually took one hour to get here. I open the door and walk frowningly to my chair,while Perry is about to give me a hug.
"Come on babe,its not my fault we got late"
"Don't believe her Mira,it was Perry's fault. Jaden dropped by her place and she just continued talking without even taking track of time" Aisha says this aggressively.
"Oh so you choose Jaden over your girls" I say this in an amused tone.
"Of course she did,is that a question?" Layah replies immediately
"You know what
babes,I'm guilty so just crucify me" Perry says this amidst laugh
"If only that was easy" I say this and we all start laughing. We hurry into the kitchen to get the cookies done and then go back to the sitting room to watch our TV show and then I decide to remind them of why they actually came.
"Ehm..Babes, I think we should get down to why you all are here"
"So..we can't just drop by your house" Layah asks apprehensively
.
"You've got to be kidding me,you can even sleep over but that's not the reason why you came"
" Ehm..babes,I think we should get down to why you all are here"
"So...we can't just drop by your house" I say this defiantly.
"Okay whatever you two,what are we taking for the excursion, like we gotta go for shopping"
"Gosh...Layah you love clothes too much, the first thing that could cross your mind is clothes" Aisha says this.
"Of course Aisha, why do you think I was given the post of social prefect to campaign for?"
"Hmm..okay that's added,what else?" I ask and they start giving me different responses. We decide to shop online since the time is already far spent.
We continue our program until its a bit too late and then I say bye to the girls while I ask Perry to stay behind for the night as my parents travelled and I need company.
*************
Today is a brand new day and lovable one cause it's Friday. We are all told to go to school by 8am so that our bus can take us to the airport before landing at Bermuda . I rush down from dads car as I'm a little bit late.
I get into our bus stop and I'm glad to see Perry and others. I then walk up to them.
(Frowning) "You really plan on being the latecomer of the year right?"
"So sorry Aisha, dad had alot to talk about due to our excursion"
"Hmm..daddy's girl,it's not like its camping,its just one day event,must you two talk?"
(Laughing) "Go get yourself a dad like mine then you will understand" I say this and then Perry comes to meet us.
"Hey..Babes,have you seen Spence and Jaden"
"Ehm....I just came in,why are you searching for them?" I ask Perry
"I think you should just go straight to the point and ask why she's looking for Spence"
"Oh..come on Aisha,not now,why calling Spence?"
"Did I just hear my name?,what did I do" I turn my back to see Spence smiling brightly with Jaden beside him and then Aisha is about giving him a reply when I give her a pinch.
"N-nothing,you must have heard wrong" I say this and then we all start talking until its time to take our seating position. We walk to our school seating booth and then surprisingly I get a space with Spence while Perry got one with Jaden after begging a junior to trade places with her and then Aisha is still looking for her seating buddy.
The bus blare its horn and then we all enter into the bus which drive us to the airport.
"That was tiring Spence"
"Not really Mira,its because you slept off with your head hanging upwards"
"What were you expecting me to do Spence?"
"You could have just leaned on me,I don't bite" He says this with a smirk and I can't help feel he's breath on my face. I notice how close we are right now, godd...ion know why I'm feeling so tensed right now .
"N-no thank you". Shoot me right now as he's sudden laugh seems to affect me.
We continue talking as we come down from the bus to get our plane tickets from our principal and board the plane.
We both have to stop talking when we see the rest in order to prevent talks and then we walk up to Perry and Jaden who are already taking pictures.
" So you two can't even wait to get to where we are going before taking pictures"
"I love the view here plus its not a group picture" Perry says this and then we went into the plane and seat down for our flight.
***************
Thank Goodness its not a long flight from Newyork as I hate long journeys.We keep talking until everyone gets down from the airplane and then we take another drive on a bus to a famous mall in Bermuda we are given strict warnings not to leave the mall although I can see some junior students doing otherwise.
We decide to check the game area and damn..I'm just loving what I can see .
"It's 4dglasses Mira!!!" Aisha says this excitedly
"Yeah... I think she knows" Layah responds
"Whatever let's play" Perry says this and then we pay our various money for ticket to seat down.
The game starts and I can't believe I'm actually screaming like a baby right now while Perry is so calm like nothing is happening. We get to the end of the game and then the glasses are removed.
I can see smiles written all over Layahs face as she has been videoing.
"Just laugh it out Layah,no need covering it up"
(Smiling) "Whatever girl,that was hilarious, you were actually crying like a baby.I'm so gonna post this video"
"Don't you even dare" I say this immediately
"Then watch me do it" She smiles wickedly and opens her phone to post it while I try collecting the phone but then the phone is flinged. I turn my head round to see Spence smiling back at us.
"Spence give me back my phone"
"What if I don't want to Layah" Spence says this authoritatively. How does he always manage to look hot,God..help my thought.
"Please...don't, help me delete the video from Layahs phone" I say this pleadingly
"Deleting the video will only prove that you guys actually have sometimes going on so I advise you not to"
"Who told you two that I want your opinion" He says this and brings his phone as if to send someging and then returns Layahs phone to her, leaving me worried.
" So you actually deleted it?"Layah asks fiercely
"Yea I did and now I'm the only one that has it" He says this with a devilish smile.
"Ohmg,don't tell me you actually sent the video to your phone" I ask anxiously
(Laughs)"I just love this whole scenero but I gotta go now,see you trouble lovers later "Layah says this and walks off While Spence is just smiling. How does he's smile manage to look enchanting in a time like this.
" Why are you smiling like someone who just won a lottery?"
"I think I actually did"
"Really!!You ain't serious, you can delete the video now that she's gone"
"Why will I do that"
"You only sent the video to get her off my neck right?"
"Ehm..no, I got my own reasons"
(Folding hands)"Okay what's the reason?"
"I want you to seat close to me at the cinema" He smiles after saying this.
"But why?" I ask as I am bewildered.
"Cause..I just want you to"
"What if I don't Mr?"
"Then the video goes viral
"I see...black mail,you really are something"
"Its not really blackmail,I just have this as the only way to ask.
We keep arguing until a teacher comes and tells us to head to the cinema as its already time for the show. I breathe out plus I have no choice than to watch the movie by Spence's side.
We get our popcorn and drinks,then Perry waves at me with a wide smile on her face as she's seated with Jaden. We get to our seat and then wait patiently for the movie to start.
I can see Pipers eyes burning through my skin but I just smile through it as I know that's the only thing she can do since she's under surveillance for prefect position. The movie starts and then I start talking to Spence who seems to have a comment on everything.
We continue talking until I drift into dream land.
****************
I can feel a hand removing hairs from my face and then I open my eyes to see Spence smiling brightly at me.
" I guess ya awake now Mira"
"Ehm..yeah,what happened?"
"You fell asleep on my shoulder and I didn't want to wake you up" He says this and then I raise my head immediately at the realisation that I've been sleeping on his shoulders.
"I'm so sorry Spence,you should have woken me up"
"There's no need to be.I actually enjoyed staring at your face" He says this in a low tone
"What did you just say?"
"The film is over" I face forward and realise its actually over.We evacuate the cinema and go to grab lunch. I walk to Aisha and Layah as the are waiting for me.
"Hey...babes"
"Hmm..I could see you and Spence even in the dark"
"Seriously Aisha, you think I didn't notice you and Ray plus I thought Layah will be the one to eat me raw but ya actually doing it"
"No ..don't praise me girl,you two were my movie today" Layah responds
"You two are just jockers,let's just go and buy lunch"
"Why didn't you go with Spence?"
"Why should I to with him?"
"You two came in together for Gods sake,guilty conscience"
"It ain't guilt okay, I'm actually going to get him lunch for two of us" We get to the restaurant and ordered, then take it to our table.
We start eating but then my taste bud doesn't go well with the food so I can't eat much and now Jadens trying to cruxify me for that.
"Why ain't you eating Mira!!"
"I don't like the taste of the food"
"So..you wanna waste it?"
"There's nothing else I can do now,why the interrogation"
"Yea..me I'm also curious cause I don't see any connection" Aisha says this with a spoonful of food in her mouth
"Don't choke yourself,I'm just saying I wouldn't want her to be wasting Spences money later on"
"Ya confusing me right now " I say this in a confused state.
"Don't worry Mira,you will understand soon" Spence says this and then Perry gives me a smile to say her mind might be true. We continue eating and talking when a junior student comes to inform us that its time we head to Horseshoe Bay Berumda beach and then we all stand up and get changed in our beach attire.
They enter the water to start swimming tho I don't go near the water as I'm not a good swimmer. I bring out my earphones and listen to music when I feel a hand on my back.
I remove my earphones to see Jadens eye popping at my face.
"Why ain't you swimming" He throws the question at me
"I'm not a water kind of person"
"You can ask Spence to teach you"
"Hmm..why do you always have to bring him up"
"Its because you seem to hate him too much when he actually likes you"
"I don't hate him okay,ya the one making me behave this way"
"I don't get you Mira,why don't you believe he likes you?" I actually don't know why I don't believe, it just seems unreal.
"Cause.. It simply can't be true or..can you justify it,did he tell you so?"
"Hmm..I can't answer your question but I just hope you can see things for yourself" He says this and leaves immediately while I continue listening to music.
We stay in the beach till time is already running late and then our bus takes us to the airport for our flight back home. I get home tiredly to be welcomed by Riana .
