Mixed Feelings (book 1) - Chapter 24：Our Friendship

The next day, I woke up feeling sunlight on my face, I tried to get up but a strong arm was holding me still. I turned around, Enzo was sleeping peacefully beside me, he looks so innocent while sleeping, like a baby, I traced his jawline with my thumb. He grabbed my hand and kissed it, “Good morning” he greeted in his morning voice.

“Good morning” I greeted him back, I tried to get up but he pulled me back, ” Enzo let me go”,

“No…” he said, nuzzling into my neck,

“I will be late Enzo.” I was struggling to get up, but he’s grip was strong.

After so many failed tries, I felt tired and I lay there. Then again I started tickling him, but there was no reaction from him, I looked up to see him smirking. “I’m not a ticklish person”,

“Huh,” I huffed, he chuckled and pinched my nose. He released me and stood up; he took my hand and pulled me from the bed, we both were naked, neither of us has a piece of cloth on our bodies. The air between us suddenly changed, and our breathing changed, my heart was beating furiously against my ribcage, he grabbed my chin and kissed me, I kissed him back. His hands were roaming on my bare back and rested on the butt; he lifted me up and I wrapped my legs around his waist, without breaking the kiss, he walked into the bathroom and Fuck me! His bathroom was as big as my entire house, It was modern,

okay, okay back to kissing, we were kissing each other furiously like we are not going to see each other for a century.

He walked to his big shower room; he has a freaking LED rain shower. He caged me between him and the glass; I was still sore Down there. We bathed together, he has so many very expressive bath and body collection. He used some of them on me; I don’t even know them. After our shower he gave him a towel from the cupboard, and his wrapped a towel on his waist, it hung low on his waist, his v line was visible. He was looking so sexy, I want to kiss every inch of his body then and there. I was staring at his v line; Enzo noticed me and walked to me. He took my hands and guided me to his V line, and I looked at him and touched his v line, he took a sharp intake and stood still. I traced his abs, his tattoos, his chest.

“You’re so beautiful,” I said, tracing my fingers over his tattoos, his body wasn’t filled with tattoos. He has them here and there.

I moved closer and started kissing his tattoos, I can hear his heart beating rapidly against his ribcage, I then stepped back and looked into his green eyes. I can’t believe that this greek god is mine now, he took my hand in his and we walked outside the bathroom, he took me inside his walk-in closet.

It was very big, one complete side was Enzo’s and I turned to another side, I gasped looking at this side. It was filled with female things, clothes, footwear, handbags, Everything, I never had these many things in my life. Suddenly I felt homesick, I don’t want all of this, I want to go back to my house, I miss it.

I looked back at Enzo; he was staring at me. I smiled at him and walked to the clothes hanging there. I checked them and took a simple white t-shirt, and a knee ripped black jeans, I turned around, looking at Enzo I was struggling to tell him to go from there so that I could wear my clothes.

He smirked and walked towards me, ” I have seen everything already, still you are shy? ” He pulled me by my waist and whispered in my ear, “Do you want me to dress you?”

I panicked, “No…No…” I started pushing him outside and closed the slider.

I heard him chuckling at my reaction, I smiled to myself and I walked to the big wardrobe, pulled the drawer. There were so many, like hundreds of inner wears with different colors kept neatly, which I didn’t even wear in my entire life, I took a pink bra and panty and got dressed, I stood in front of the big mirror and checked my outfit, I sat down and pulled the drawer and gasped again.

There were so many beauty cosmetics, there very expensive and used by professionals.

I signed I did my hair and my make up.

I walk outside and saw Enzo sat on the sofa, waiting patiently for his turn. He checked me out and smiled, he walked to me and kissed me on my forehead.

He went inside the closest; I walked downstairs. Judy greeted me,

“Good morning, Nessa”

“Good morning Judy,” I smiled and sat on the chair.

She severed breakfast; I waited for Enzo to join me.

Enzo walked down the stairs dressed in a dark blue Armani suit with a very light blue shirt underneath and with a navy tie and black shoes, He was Hot.

I quickly turned my head and suddenly my plate was very interesting, I felt him sitting in his head chair beside me. I looked up at him; Judy was serving him breakfast. Without saying a word, we started digging into our food.

After having my breakfast, wiped my mouth and stood up, I took my bag. Enzo was waiting for me in the car, and he was talking to someone and hung up, seeing me.

It was suspicious, but I did not let that show on my face.

I stepped inside and sat beside him, and paul closed the door.

He placed his hand on my thigh, looking at me. I smiled and held his arm and rested my head on his shoulder, and he kissed my head.

*************

We reached our school, and I looked outside and saw through the window that everyone was looking at us. I turned and looked at Enzo, glaring him. He was smirking, he opened the car door and stepped, outside walked around and opened my car extending his hand, I was glaring him, taking his hand I stepped out.

Everyone was looking at us, whispering among themselves, some were taking photos of us, some were glaring at me, some were drooling over Enzo. He walked me towards the entrance, kissing me on my head, he smirked at my shocked expression.

He walked back to the car, left me in this fucking situation. Everyone was looking at me with questioning eyes, and I lowered my head and walked to my locker.

I turned around, Beth was standing there, folding her hands, with a raised eyebrow.

With a confused expression, “What? ” I asked,

“What was that?” She said,

“Don’t try to be smart with me Venessa Foster”

I signed, “I’ll tell you every single detail about it in the evening”

“You will?”

“I will,”

She smiled, “So, What’s up with you and Kristen,” I asked her, she instantly blushed.

He was her big fat crush, she talks to him but never conferenced her feelings to him.

“Kristen and Me! …. There is nothing between us,” she said blushing.

“Oh really,” I said,

“Really”

“Oh shut up, I know you have a big crush on him beth. Come on I’m your best friend I know everything about you idiot,” I said, I was pissed at her.

She signed, “I never got a chance to tell him about my feelings Ness.”

I side hugged her, ” you should tell him, if you’ll wait for the right time it’ll never come, you should create one beth”

“I’m scared,” she said with a sad expression,

“Why?” I asked with concern,

“What If… He doesn’t like me”

“He does talk to you, right?”

“Yea… But what if he doesn’t like me the way I do”

“If you tell him then only you’ll be able to know what he actually feels about you beth”

She likes him a lot, but she never confessed it, Kristen is a good guy. He’s off 5.9, curly hair, innocent face with baby Brown eyes and I think he has feelings for her too, but both are shy to confess that to each other. I had to do something before its late.

She fell silent, I signed.

“come on, let’s go” I said,

We walked to our classes, and I entered in my class. I walked to my seat, put down my bag and sat down on my chair.

I noticed Aron walking to my seat; I was watching him. He looked at him and smiled, he sat beside me.

“Hey”

“Hey”

He looked around and asked me ” where’s Redmond? ”

“I don’t know,” I said shrugging my shoulders.

“Oh okay… So?”

“So….?”

“See Venessa; I just wanted to tell you that…I… Want you to be friends with you,” he said nervously.

I thought for a second, and we were looking at each other.

“Okay,” I said.

He was surprised, “okay!”

“Yea… But, I think Remond will have issues with our friendship”

Chuckling he said, “he will not have”

“Let’s see”

The class was filling with students, but we were ignoring it and continued talking.

“So, why don’t you do that?” he asked.

“If I do that, my assignment will be completely ruined,” I said laughing, he also started laughing with me.

Then Remond entered with Seth and Zachary, they were looking at us. Remond was glaring Aron, but he was unaffected.

They walked to our back seat, Remond sat behind me, Seth sat beside him and Zachary sat beside Aron.

Aron and I were talking nonstop, I can feel Remond glaze on me.

The bell rang indicating that its lunch break, I stood up and walked outside. Beth saw me and we both walked to the cafeteria.

We took our plates and sat down in our usual place, and we were talking to each other and then suddenly Beth stopped and looked at someone behind me, I turned my head to see Aron smiling at us.

“Come on, From now on…you’ll sit with us”

“What…” Before I could finish my sentence he took my plate and pulled me with him, Beth was following us behind.

He took us to his usual spot, Remond was glaring him, Seth and Zachary were looking at each other.

“They will be with us from

today,” he said, more like an order.

He sat down and pulled me to sit between him and Remond, beth sat down between Aron and Zachary.

I noticed Zachary looking at Beth calmly, beside me Remond was fuming with anger.

Aron Ignored him and we were talking to each other like there’s no one except us in the room, others were watching us silently.

“I can’t believe that you did it,” he said, laughing hard at my childhood incident.

“Yeah, I was shocked too,” I said laughing.

Beth and Seth also started laughing,”Girl you’re crazy,” he said.

Zachary was also smiling, but Remond didn’t give any reaction, he was just sitting there quietly. I had to talk to him and clear our issues as soon as possible, I thought to myself.

After lunch, Me, Aron, Beth, Zachary and Seth were talking to each other at our lockers; Remond was standing there like an angry kid who didn’t get his favorite toy.

Then suddenly someone bumped into Beth, she slipped and Zachary caught her by her waist and her glasses fell down. Nobody was noticing them, but I was silently watching them, Zachary was staring at her face, beth quickly stood up and took her glasses. They both looked everywhere but at each other, it was so cute. I looked at Aron and he saw them too, Seth was busy telling us about his Flings.

We then walked to our classes, the day went on. Entire day Remond didn’t talk to me not even once, and I don’t know why but somehow it affected me. Maybe because I was habituated to his stupid tasks and all. After the last bell, I walked to my locker, took my things and a piece of paper fell from my book. I took it and opened.

Come over to the backside of the school right now, Don’t be late.

Was written on it.

I signed, maybe its Remond again. This boy and his letters.

As I was told, I walked to the backside of the school, there was no one there I walked to the corner hoping maybe there’s someone, but there’s no one there. I turned around, suddenly someone covered my mouth with a handkerchief, A Black car stopped in front of us. Four men wearing a black musk over there face stepped outside and pulled me inside the car, I was slowly loosening my consciousness.

Before losing it,

I heard a man sitting on the front seat, calling someone in his phone saying,

“Boss, It’s done”
