Empire High School - Season 1 - Episode 95

I should laugh it off! And I did!
I busted into a painful laughter! It was a
painful one because I could feel my heart
was hurting! I love Joseph! He was my first
love! The first guy I fell for but we can’t
move pass the friendship stage because he
doesn’t love me and there is nothing I can
do about it. He only sees me as his Best
friend.

So let’s keep it that way!
“Why are you laughing?”
“Your words are funny..How could you say
that i have feelings for Joseph -”
“Its the truth but you don’t want to admit
it to me”

“No..No..You are wrong. I..I don’t have any
feeling for Joseph..Not even the slightest
one”

How did i let this conversation get to this?
I wasn’t even close to Cullen one bit. I
mean we don’t talk except if he joins us
during lunch. And we all roll and chat.
I should put an end to this conversation.
“Time for inspection” I stood up
I had to inspect the school surrounding,
laboratories and all before students comes
in. General inspections was one of the
reasons why I come early to school. It was
one I the duties as the Headboy and
Headgirl.

“Why don’t you tell Joseph about your
feelings? Let him know how you feel?”
I heard him say when I was almost at the
door. I turned to face Cullen. He was
already out of his chair, walking close to
me.

“You’re mistaken Cullen”
He shook his head
“I have studied you for years Elena. And I
also can tell when a girl loves a boy”
“Joseph is my best friend” I said
He nodded in agreement
“I’m not disputing the fact that you’re his
best friend”

I looked away from him
He huffed
“Joseph Is really a fool to not realize that
you are in love with him” he mumbled
I placed my palms together
“Cullen..You’re wrong. I don’t love Joseph”

I said avoiding his intense gaze.
Cullen wanted me to admit that I was in
love with Joseph but I won’t admit it. I did
my best at hiding my feeling for years
since the one in question loves another girl.
And am definitely far from his ideal type of
girl.

I should leave
“Elena -” Cullen closed the door and before
I could figure out anything he stepped
forward. I stepped backward. He kept
walking to me and I moved backward until
i hit the wall. He caged me with his hands
on the wall.

I glanced at him in shock. His expression
was stoney. And he started to bend his
head.

What?!
What was he trying to do?
He wanted to kiss me?!

Hell no! I shoved at his body he didn’t
sway. I moved my head to one side and
said.

“Wh..What..are..you -” my voice trailed off
“Have you ever considered loving another
boy? I believe there is a guy out there
waiting for you. Someone who will love
you, accept and cherish you” He whispered
into my ear
I rolled my eyes
Oh! Thank Goodness he didn’t try to kiss
me!

“Thanks for the advice but can you step
back a bit?”
“You thought I was going to kiss you
right?” He chuckled, looking into my eyes.
I held his gaze with wonder and shyness.
What’s wrong with this boy?!

“F--k you Cullen” I muttered
And he laughed
“Sorry babe, I don’t kiss girls without their
permission” he gave me a wink. His
charming smile suited his cute face. Cullen
was handsome but too big for my liking.
He was given “EHS biggest boy” No doubt
Cullen was a regular at the gym center
because of his chiseled muscles and
sculpted chest. You can’t tell he’s just
18..He looked like he was in his 20’s.
And I can’t imagined a small girl like me
dating a bigger boy like him.. Lols! I’m not
close to his chest region.

Gosh! I’m really a short girl!

“Elena, I’m serious about what I said
earlier..”

“Okay..Cullen step backward”
I could hear footsteps in the hallway now.
“No I like us like this -” he teased
Whoever was coming in would get the
wrong idea if they see us like this!
“Please Cullen” i pleaded as I bit my lower
lip.
He nodded

And stood straight
“Thanks for the advice Coach” I breathed
out heavily

“You’re welcome”
I moved away from him immediately but
he held my wrist again.

My head snapped up to look at him. The
door opened at the same time. I turned my
head at the door. It was Lawal.
I watched him do the wide eye as his gaze
fell on Cullen holding my wrist.And I
withdrew from his grip.

He looked at me and then Cullen. Lawal
raised his eyebrow. A deep frown crossing
his face.

Now what was he thinking?
He shouldn’t get the wrong idea!

“Good Morning Lawal” Cullen greeted
Lawal didn’t respond

He mumbled indifferntly and walked to his
seat.

Cullen and I exchanged glances.
“Lawal, its polite to answer a greeting”
Cullen said

“Yes..But I decided to not answer your
greeting” Lawal said in a harsh tone.
What?!
