Chapter 12
I looked at Lily for help but even she looked helpless.
I took a deep breath and made my way to the field, the silence in the field wasn't helping.It was as if everyone was in shock that I had gotten the rose.
The only problem was I had never kicked a ball in my life, how was I supposed to do this?
Justin came up behind me, so close that his breath tickled my neck.
"What are you waiting for?"he asked impatiently.
"I've never kicked a ball before."I confessed.
I wasn't sure if I heard right but it sounded like he was laughing at me.That jerk!
"All you have to do is kick the ball Gabriella."he said behind me."Just look at the goal , concentrate on the ball in front of you and kick it , focus on the middle."he ordered.
The crowd was becoming restless, obviously thinking that I was stupid.I could hear everyone saying that I couldn't do it.I guess that's what gave me the courage to hit the ball-straight for a goal!
I heard all the screams of the girls in the crowd, they were obviously unhappy that I scored.
I wasn't so thrilled either, this meant I was going to have to spend the day with Justin and I wasn't so sure I wanted to spend the day with someone who didn't like me.
I looked at Justin, whatever he was thinking at the time, I couldn't tell, he was always difficult to read.
Suddenly his eyes drifted to me and before I knew it I was in his arms.
I gasped in shock."What are you doing?"I asked almost breathless.
His eyes turned a darker shade as he stared intently at me, with a desire I've never seen before."I'm guessing Lily didn't tell you that if you scored a goal you'll be rewarded with a kiss."he whispered.
My eyes widened."No I was told that the tradition was that if I scored the goal then you'll have to spend the day with me.Nothing was said about this!"I replied,trying to control my racing heart.
He held me closer, his lips a few inches from mines."I just changed that tradition."
I knew the right thing was to push him away, that was the sane thing to do considering we were in front of everyone.
However, instead of pushing him away I closed my eyes and waited for his lips to touch mines.
"Justin!"someone behind us said.
He didn't pull away , instead he rose his head to look behind me.
"What is it?"he demanded, sounding like he was angry.
"Your parents came to pay you a visit."the guy said.
Justin pulled away from me immediately at the mention of his parents.
His eyes widened as he stared at me as if he was shocked about what he was about to do.
"Where are they?"he asked walking towards his friend.
"The last time I checked they were walking towards the field."his friend replied.
"Are you okay?"Lily asked.
I hadn't even realised she had made her way to the field.In fact a lot of students were coming onto the field .
"I'm not sure.I'm confused as to what just happened."I answered honestly.
"Let's talk about it in our room.We don't want you here when Justin's parents reaches."she said pulling me out of the field.
...........................................
"I'm just as confused as you are Gabriella."Lily confessed propping up herself on her bed."I mean the tradition was that Justin would have to spend the day with you."
"Exactly.When he told me that he had to kiss me because I scored-"
"He told you that?"Lily asked raising up to a sitting position on her bed.
I nodded my head."Yes he did.In fact when I told him what you had told me he said that he was changing that tradition."
"What?"Lily asked gaping at me , walking over to my bed."That's so not like him.I mean I'm not understanding anything.It's like he has no control of himself around you.Unless he had something planned to hurt you in the end."
I nodded my head."I guess you're right.He obviously is playing with my feelings."
As much as I wanted to believe that Justin had feelings for me I knew it couldn't be possible, we barely knew each other and he hated bad fairies.He himself had told me that we would never get close to each other.That it wasn't possible.
"I'm so sorry you have to go through this Gabriella, its so unfair to you to be treated so unfairly."
I forced a smile on my face."It's okay, you don't need to apologise, I've already grown accustom to this.As long as you're my friend I'll be fine."
We were interrupted by a knock on the door.
Lily rose up to answer it, her eyes widening in shock.
Who could it be?
