Teddy Bears and Flowers • H2O Delirious x Reader
(Y/N)'s POV
"Ha, ha. Real funny guys." Bryce said and opened his lockers to be greeted by tons of chocolates and roses. Luke and I snickered because we never do anything on Valentine's day, not even for each other. "Whatever, it's free chocolate. (Y/N) can have the roses!"
"We didn't even get you those." Luke and the guys nodded while Bryce handed me the fresh roses. "But uh.. you gonna share you selfish fucking prick?"
For once, I walked down the hall like every other girl at my school on this day. "(Y/N), where you going?" Bryce called from about ten lockers down. I walked back continuing to get nasty looks from everyone. It was uncomfortable at first, but I just ignored it.
Just as I came back, my bitchy locker neighbor came. She awed at the burst of balloons popping out and an even bigger bouquet of roses inside. It wasn't even because it was Valentine's day, her boyfriend did this every anniversary, including the month milestones. "Aww, babe you shouldn't have!" Chelsea, my locker neighbor squealed while her boyfriend snaked her arms around her.
"Better step up your game, Bryce" Jeremy, her douchebag boyfriend scoffed at both of us. Bryce?
The bell rang causing everyone to hurry to their classes. Bryce and I left awkwardly, trying to ignore what Jeremy said.
You know that look everyone gives you as if you're some kind of murderer when you walk into class late? Yea, I was the last one to take my seat. "Glad you could join us, Ms. (L/N)"
I rolled my eyes putting the flowers and my head down, until a piece of paper flung at me.
What makes Bryce so special? You could do much better.
The note was in a handwriting that wasn't familiar to me. I scanned the room to see any suspicious looks but everyone had that same dead-inside look. It really shouldn't matter that Bryce gave me these. He didn't want them, it was probably from Ryan since he makes things so obvious whenever his group walks past us. I'd ask 'who'd be jealous of Bryce?' when the real question should be 'who would be jealous over me?' I can't think of one person who would be.
"(Y/N) (L/N)?" A student council member came to our room with a giant teddy bear probably bigger than me along with an even larger bouquet of roses. I could feel everyone's eyes on me as I was handed over the giant gift. "Happy Valentine's day!" She greeted and left. I looked around, I saw every other girls' eyes blazing in envy. I felt so unworthy for this and I didn't even know how to feel. For all I know, that person could be in my class right now.
"That the rest of Bryce's gifts?" Evan, who sat behind me, said quietly.
"They're not from Bryce!" I shouted louder than I expected to, catching everyone's attention.. as if it didn't leave in the first place.
This was going to be an interesting day.
When lunch began, I was already tired from lugging the giant bear and bouquets around. I arrived to the table I usually sat at, Bryce and Luke's mouths hung low as I threw the bear and bouquet next to their food. "Did you guys get me this?!"
"Don't flatter yourself, sweetheart." Luke giggled and I ended up punching his arm. "Well whoever gave you that must have a massive crush on you."
"No shit, sherlock." I scoffed and laid my head down on the table.
"You're not going to eat?" Bryce said and handed me his leftover food. All I wanted to do was rest up but the food Bryce brought today was one of my favorites things he brings from home. I perked my head up and gladly took a bite of what he held out, only to have a little spill onto my jeans. "Oh my god, I'm sorry!" Bryce exclaimed and started wiping the stain off my jeans. As if things didn't need to get any worse..
People looked at us and laughed to each other. "Bryce, would you hurry it up?!" I whispered, feeling my cheeks heat up.
"Get a room you two." Evan teased from the table opposite from us, causing most of his friends to start laughing.
"Yea you two love birds!" Brian shouted and threw a piece of his food at Bryce. Their friends erupted in laughter while I was the one trying to clean up Bryce now.
"Hey cut that shit out!" Luke took a bigger handful of his food and flung it to Brian in return. Luke ended up missing and hit Jonathan instead. Finally some emotion fled back to his face. He was the only one not laughing. However, I instantly wished Luke didn't miss. Jonathan threw his whole plate towards us and instead of it hitting Luke, it hit me.
Gasps escaped from everyone's mouth as their laughter came to a halt. "(Y/N).." Luke and Bryce tried to touch me but I didn't let them. I just wanted to clean up myself and leave. I ran out of the cafeteria enraged as the smell of food started to stain my hair and skin.
The bathroom was thankfully vacant. I turned on the tap and ran a paper towel underneath it. I started to clean my hair and face as I listened to the water of other sinks drip. Regret soon replaced my rage. I wish I hadn't accepted those flowers. Nothing good came out of it today. Who would have a thing for me? Maybe that's why people laughed at Bryce too, no one expects me to be in a relationship. For all I know, the flower gram was probably a joke by some idiot at school.
Just before I was done cleaning up, a knock came from the door. I went to go answer it and the only thing in front of me was the bear and bouquet. Great, it was probably Luke and Bryce returning my stuff. I just wish they had left the gifts.
Lunch was the last time I saw Luke and Bryce. When the after school bell rang, I wanted nothing more than to go home and sleep this shitty day off. Instead of walking the same way Luke and Bryce walked, I took a different route.
On the way home, I heard another set of footsteps behind me. I looked back quickly and saw the same blue hooded asshole who flung their food at me. Jonathan's head fell lower the moment I looked his way. What an idiot, can't even look me in the face after being a total bitch today. I huffed and continued walking until I reached my house.
Upon arriving, I rummaged through my bag looking for my key to my door. Suddenly, I felt a hand touch my shoulder. "Hey, I'm sorry about today." I looked up to see Jonathan's icy blue eyes look down at me in a puppy dog way. It was weird, I never talked to him before. Not even during class.
I shot my eyes back down to my bag and continued to look for my keys. "Whatever, it's fine." I said, thinking he'd leave after that.. but he didn't. I looked back up to see him eyeing out the smaller bouquet, the one from Bryce. "Is something wrong?"
Jon looked back at me with a pink hue on his face. "No. I-I'm sorry." With that he left, at least I thought he was going to. "So you and Bryce..." He turned on his heel and walked back to me. Christ, can't a girl and a guy just be friends nowadays?
"Oh. My. God." I started, about to blow up on him. "Do you want to know why I have those?" His eyes widened, looking a bit terrified. "Someone gave those to him and he didn't want them. So he gave the chocolates to Luke and the flowers to me! He's not my lover, he's not my second half, he's my friend!"
Jonathan stood their awkwardly in silence. I guess I proved my point. When I finally found my keys, I inserted it into the key hole of the door, only to have Jon touch my hand that was turning the key. "I'm so sorry, I didn't know.."
Confused, I asked him "What do you mean?"
"You two were so close today that I guess I got a little jealous.."
I felt my cheeks burn from his words. Jealous?
"So you were the one who sent.. that?" I pointed to the teddy bear and flowers I dropped next to me.
Jonathan nodded in reply and scratched the back of his neck. "Didn't you see the note inside the teddy bear?" My dumb self had just realized the zipper on the back of the bear. Jon opened it for me and handed the note over.
To: (Y/N)
Someone as beautiful as you shouldn't be spending a day like this by yourself. I'm not asking to be your Valentine, but something more. Meet me at the back of the school.
-J ♥
My face probably had an obvious shade of red. I think it got worse as I looked back up to see that goofy grin of his and his piercing blue eyes look at me. It was absolutely hard to look away from those eyes. I didn't know how to react, I felt frozen standing. "I-I'm sorry, what did you wanna-"
Before I could finish, his lips pecked my already rosy cheeks. One hand snaked my side while the other caressed my cheek, making it hard to look away. I fell so fast for this beautiful stranger. His crazy smile and those hypnotizing blue eyes. How have I not noticed him before? "Let's talk this over tonight, on a date."
A smile plastered onto my face. I didn't expect this at all after today. But it was definitely what I needed. "I'd love that."
