32. Cold War

Previously on Something Good [a few hours ago before June came to see Becky ]

June P.o.v

I was too lazy to leave my bed but the Andrew kept calling me on my cell. God, I hated him. I picked up the call.

What?!?!? I screamed.

And Good morning to you too sweetheart! He said.

Uh..no isn't! You woke me up!!?! I screamed again.

That was my intention, love! He chuckled.

Okay, I am hanging up! I said rolling my eyes.

Don't you dare go back to sleep! It's 7 already.. We have to be at the library at 8.00 he reminded me.

And who's fault is that? I asked sarcastically.

Your's of course! he said instantly.

I left a long sigh.

Quit pouting.. We have lots to do! He said.

Bye now! I said hanging up the call.

A few minutes later I managed to get out the bed and got ready. All my other roomies were fast asleep. I was kinda jealous of them. I got ready in 30 mins. I wore a loose tank top and a skirt. I made my hair into a messy bun and put on my flip flops and started walking out of my dorm. I felt kinda hungry so grabbed an apple on the way from the mess hall. I texted Becky about the whole punishment thing but there was no reply. I thought maybe she was sleeping too. After all, it was Sunday.

I was walking towards the library but then I thought of surprising Andrew at the front gate. For no apparent reason, I was smiling thinking of him. As I walking towards the entrance I noticed Kelly with some guy. What was Kelly doing here? I went closer to see who was that guy. It was Andrew. It was like She was sticking on to him like chewing gum. I was frustrated by the sight of her. I was furious at first but when I saw Andrew, he was smirking at her too. I was just sad at the moment. I had my frown on and walked away.

I reached the library and started my work. There was a librarian who was waiting for me. She gave instructions about arranging all the books according to its genre. And cleaning all the bookshelves and stuff. She asked about Andrew. I don't wanna talk about him so I acted like I didn't see him. She instructed that I need to be there for at least 2 hrs. She also said janitor will come for closing the library at 12. I agreed in response and then she left me.

I was standing in the middle of the library. It was a huge library. There were more than 100 bookshelves. I was surrounded by lots of books. I wanted to finish the given work in time. Cause honestly I didn't want another punishment. I saw all those dusty books lying on the floor. It's gonna be a long day I thought. I started to get to work. I was sorting all the books according to its genre. Andrew was not here still. I thought of calling him but then I remembered the sight of Andrew with Kelly. I got annoyed and I tried hard, to not think about them. But I can't.

Maybe he liked her better. But how can anyone like her? Do you know? She is just annoying and full of herself. But maybe he found her interesting. Who cares anyway? I thought.

You do! Else you would do your work silently. My mind was screaming. He spoilt my mood I thought. Really? You are doing that to yourself! My conscience was right. I didn't wanna be upset over Andrew. He doesn't mean anything! I mumbled to myself. But I am not sure if I meant that.

There was no one in the Library but I desperately needed someone to talk to. I wish Becky was here to say something, she always knows what to say. But she wasn't here so I started talking to myself. As weird as it sounds I like talking to myself.

He isn't here! I gotta start working. I said.

Yeah. I can't wait for him. I said with a hint of despair.

I thankfully had my iPod with me. I plugged in my ears phones and got to work. I like working while listening to music. Also, there was no one in the library, so I don't want to here creepy voices. Yes, I am a scary cat.

I sorted around 50 books that belonged to the History section. I wanted to finish section by section. I saw my wrist my watch, it was half-past 10. I sighed heavily. Still no sign of Andrew I thought. Then I ignored those thoughts and took those books near the history section.

The bookshelf was gigantic. I saw a steel ladder near the shelf, I pulled it near the shelf with all my strength. I decided to arrange 10 books at a time. So the topmost part contained books that were about the 15th century. I took the books that needed to be placed there. I had lotta books and they were pretty heavy. I started climbing up the ladder with those books. I started off fast but after reaching halfway through it was really difficult to go on.

It was actually impossible to continue.

I didn't think this through? Did I? I asked myself.

I tried to place the book from where I was standing. I stretched my hands as long as I can. I ​stood on tiptoe in ​order to place the book. I placed a book successfully. I smiled to myself and congratulated myself. But it was short-lived when I noticed I kept the wrong book. I was frustrated. I again tried to pull that book. But then it was my unlucky day it was impossible to pull that book out. I learned more and tried to grab it but then suddenly my balance slipped. I was terrified at that moment I thought I was gonna break my legs or arms. I closed my eyes in fear. I fell down but I felt no pain. Instead, I felt warm breath of air near my cheeks and I felt a strong pair of arms holding me. I slowly opened my eyes. My eyes met the most beautiful pair of blue eyes that were shining.

Then I saw Andrew smirking.

I gazed at him for a moment. I cloud stay like this forever I thought. But then I remembered what he was doing earlier and broke my eye contact with me.

You alright? He asked with a smirk.

Yeah, Thank you! I said slowly.

I didn't want to talk with him. I was mad at him.

You know you should have waited for me.. Before climbing up there! He said smiling.

Waiting for you is pointless...you were busy with Kelly anyway! I mumbled.

What's that? He asked.

Ah.Nothing! I'll get the books! I said avoiding his eyes.

Her eyes were deadly. They make me nervous!

I was trying my best to avoid him.

Uh..okay! He said and started walking towards the next rack.

But then turned back and came near me again.

By the way..You got something on your hair! He said as he raised his hands to pull out a small paper.

I moved away from him.

It's alright. Thank you! I said backing away from him.

He eyed me closely with a confused expression for a minute or two.

Kay! He said looking at me confused.

You are weird today! Are you okay? He asked concerned.

I am fine! I said bluntly.

He nodded and went away.

We were both silently doing our work for more than an hour. It was weird no talking to him. He was stealing glances of me at times. But I ignored him. Suddenly he walked towards me. I thought he was gonna ask something so I swiftly went and grabbed some more books to keep myself busy. But he grabbed my books and placed on the table nearby and was looking at me seriously. This time I saw a hint of sadness in his eyes.

Andrew. I gotta arrange books! I said moving away.

He blocked me instantly. I tried to move in the other direction but again he did the same thing. I looked at him for a few seconds.

What? I asked slowly.

You know.. What!?! He said slightly annoyed.

Why the silent treatment? He asked looking sad.

I.. I don't know what you are talking about! I said slowly.

He looked frustrated.

June.. I swear if you are gonna. He started.

June! Someone called me.

But he was interrupted when we heard someone else. It was Nancy the girl who pranked Jason. I suddenly recognized her an became furious.

What do you want Nancy??!? I asked furiously.

What do I want? I want lotta things June! But right now I want you to stay away from Jason! She said spitefully.

Boy! Did you wrap up both of them under your finger..diddon't you? She asked sarcastically looking at Andrew.

Who are you to judge? You are a fake! You played with Jason's feelings! I said angrily.

I was burning with anger. I was offended by her previous comment. I almost forgot Andrew was standing there confused.

Oh..June! Even I am not as sadistic as you are. You are just stringing him around! She said.

I am not! He is my friend. I said to defend myself.

He thinks the same about me! I said clarifying.

I see..And What kinda friend proposes another friend? she asked suddenly.

I was speechless. How did she know?

How did...? I started.

Don't bother about it! She said looking furious.

Are you blind!?!! He still loves you! she said with a hint of despair.

I... I started but I didn't know what to tell her.

Andrew wasn't the only one searching for you yesterday! She said slowly.

You mean..Jason? I asked surprised.

Yes! And apparently your boyfriend over here sent him in the wrong direction and then he was lost too. The forest officials found him later on. She said glaring at Andrew.

What? Andrew wouldn't do something like that! I defended him.

You are wrong! I am capable of lotta things. I heard his deep voice.

How dare you? Nancy screamed.

So I did that..what now? He was found and end of story! You need to get over it! He said casually.

I was glaring at him with anger.

You know.. What? The hell with you both! She screamed.

And of June? Stay away from Jason! She warned me.

I tried to say something. But she stormed out of the library.

I was glaring at Andrew but so was he.

Why!?! Why would you do that?!? I asked angrily.

Did Jason propose to you? He asked silently.

That's not even the answer! And why do you even care? I said looking furious.

Suddenly he pinned me up against the wall and locked me between his hands. I was surprised by him. I had never seen him that angry before. What had gotten into him? I thought.

Answer me! He said seriously.

Andrew. Let me go! I demanded.

It's none of your business anyway. I said slowly.

Answer me dammit!!!!! He screamed and hit his hand against the wall.

The library was empty and his voice echoed back and forth. I was scared when he screamed like that. I looked away and was silent for a few minutes.

June? He called me slowly.

It's wasn't like a proposal. It's was more like a confession! I said looking at him.

His facial expression didn't change at all.

And what about you? He asked looking at me confused.

What about me? I asked again.

What do you feel about his confession? He asked with gritted teeth.

It doesn't concern you! I said instantly.

He came closer to me and whispered.

It does! He whispered.

It sent shivers into my spine.

Again for a few minutes, there was silence and he was gazing into my eyes looking for answers.

How could you lead him into a trap? I asked breaking our eye contact.

He didn't answer me.. He was staring at the distance.

Do you don't think it was important to tell me about Jason? He asked with hurt in his eyes.

I didn't know why but I felt guilty. He didn't have any right to make me feel guilty like that.. After all that he was doing with Kelly?

It's not like you mentioned about Kelly to me? I said furiously.

Is this all about her? You trying making me jealous !?! Cause if it is, you are failing miserably.. God, you are pathetic! He said with a fake laugh.

Why would I even bother about you?!?! I asked in frustration.

I don't care about your relationships Andrew! You should try to do the same! Everything is not about you and stop obsessing over me and Jason.      I said with gritted teeth.

I am being obsessive? Who was stalking me this morning? and being grumpy since that! He asked raising his eyebrows.

What do you mean by that June? Pick a side!!! He added spitefully.

You know what, I do want to pick a side! I choose to hate you! All you do is create problems in my life. I said angrily.

Tears were filling my eyes as my anger at some extent turned into tears.

You hate me huh? He asked furiously.

Yea...I hate you more than I ever hated anyone in my life! I exclaimed.

Suddenly he pulled me closer and his lips were on mine. It happened so quick that I didn't have time to process. It lasted for a few minutes but I didn't respond. I pulled away soon and I pushed him away.

What the hell? I screamed.

Did that shut you up? He asked furiously.

Tears started rolling down from my cheeks.

You are disgusting! I hate you. I said and stormed out of the library
