The Badboy Is My Bully - Chapter 41：41

♡ L I L Y ‘S  POV  ♡

We were currently in the kitchen eating breakfast. While Noel and Rose had eggs and toast I had to settle for dried crackers and some tea. The nauseated feeling kinda went away a little bit but I still felt weak from throwing up awhile ago.

“So when are you going to meet your dad and sister?” Noel asked. It didn’t sit well with me when he called her my sister or when he called him my dad. Just thinking about it made my blood boil. I refrained myself from lashing out on him though, since it was an innocent question and he wouldn’t have known it would of affected me that much. So I decided to answer the question as nonchalant as possible trying to hide in the anger I felt at the question.

“Summer break is in two days so I was thinking I should just take the opportunity then” I shrugged while chewing hard on the crackers. My jaw started to hurt when I realized I’ve been biting a little to aggressively and stopped myself from clenching my teeth.

“I think that’s a good idea!” Rose cheerfully added

“Yeah I guess, I still don’t know if I made the right choice” I said a little bit grumpy as I slumped on the barstool. I kinda didn’t have appetite even for dry ass crackers right now as we were on a sensitive topic.

“I think you did Lily, just stay positive”  Noel told me as Rsoe nodded in agreement.

“How are you going to reach there?” Rose asked after a long awkward pause of eight minutes.  I looked at her as I got off the stool and went to wash my hands.

“I’m taking the bus I guess” I shrugged as I dried my hands.

“But you hate buses” she pointed out as she ate her eggs. Some pieces even flying out and landed on Noels cheek. He gave her an intense glare as he wiped it off with a cringe. It was true though about me hating buses. I always felt claustrophobic whenever I took one and it wasn’t a good feeling.

“Yeah I know but I don’t want to bother my mom in having to pick me up. I said truthfully. I really didn’t want to trouble her, she has enough on her plate with my so called dad coming back and trying to make amends.

“Can’t you get someone who has a vehicle to drop you off?” Rose asked hopefully

“I don’t have friends except you guys” I said sadly. Well I do have another friend, doesn’t Niall count as one? I mean we have been getting a little bit closer. They gave me a reassuring look before changing the subject.

“We can’t go with you, we are actually going at our parents home for summer break” Noel sighed as he looked guilty for not being able to drop me off.

“Oh that sounds lovely” I was truly happy for them since they haven’t seen their parents in awhile. Not since they had a huge fight about Noel being gay and not accepting him. He moved here to start over and Rose being the supportive sister moved with him. I’m glad to see they are now on speaking terms again with their parents since all of them were close but that huge fight drifted them apart.

“Yeah wish you could have come”  Rose said sadly.

“Anything would be better than going and meet that man and his daughter” I stated as I dramatically shivered to get my point across. We all busted into laughter before resuming to what we were doing. Noel and Rose continued eating breakfast will I went on to get ready for school.

At school….

I was in my second class when I discovered that our teacher wasn’t here today. So not having anything to do I decided to take out one of my books to read to past time. I was five minutes into the book when I heard footsteps heading my way. I was startled a little when someone sat in the seat next to me. I looked up at the culprit and let out a relieved sigh when I saw that it was Niall. He looked like he was out of breath and was sweating profusely. I raised my eyebrow in question at his disheveled state.

“What happened to you?” I asked

“My alarm didn’t go off” he chuckled sheepishly

“Oh I thought you were running away from a masked murderer or something” I joked. He laughed as he fixed himself on the chair and slouched on the desk

“So what did I miss” he asked as he looked around for the teacher. Looking confused when he didn’t see one he brought back his attention to me.

“You didn’t miss anything other than our teacher being absent like usual.” I shrugged nonchalant. It was true though our teacher was hardly present but when she was she would just give us work without explaining anything to us. Sometimes I wonder how she was even a teacher to begin with.

“Ha seems like she has better things to do than babysit a bunch of college students who still act like toddlers” Niall joked

“But that’s what she is paid to do, it’s getting a little annoying when your teacher isn’t teaching you anything but by the end of the term we would have an exam we haven’t even known about”  I said irritated.

“Have you guys thought about informing this to the headmaster” he asked

“Trust me we have but it’s of no use since she’s his wife” I laughed

“Oh that explains it” he nodded in understanding

“Yep” I answered popping the p

“So what are you doing for summer break?” I asked trying to make conversation

“Nothing actually I thought that I could just lay in bed playing video games” he laughed when he saw the look on my face

“That’s boring, how about you come home with me, I’m sure my mom would love the extra company”  I could use a shoulder to lean on when I come face to face with my father and half sister. Niall has a car so it would be bonus a for me. I really didn’t want to take the bus.

“Oh so it’s meet the parents already? Didn’t know we were in a committed relationship lils” he teased. His eyes flashed with mischief as he waited for my comeback

I rolled my eyes “Stop feeling yourself doofus, I just wanted company and I thought that we were close friends”

“Ouch friendzone” he dramatically put a hand over his heart as his face clenched with pain. We burst out laughing when I knocked him in the head with the book I was reading earlier.

“You’re an idiot” I stated while he rubbed his head where I had hit

“Okay I’ll come but on one condition” he said

“Go ahead”  I gestured for him to continue

“You play at least one video game with me” he announced and gave me the lost puppy look. He looked cute and for a second I couldn’t think.
