Elena hurried downstairs at the sound of the horn of Craig's car. She wasn't ready for another interview of Craig by her mother and she guess Craig wasn't also seeing as he didn't bother to come inside the house.He must have learnt his lesson that last time. She quickly grabbed her bag and a bottle of juice from the fridge before pecking her mom on the cheek."Why is he... ""Bye mom," Elena said and rushed outside. She knew her mom wanted to ask why Craig was pressing the horn and wasn't coming inside as he did the last time."Hey... Good morning," Craig said to her and leaned forward to kiss her on her lips."Good morning," She answered, smiling back at him."You look tired. Had too much fun last night that you couldn't rest?" Craig asked as he drove out of her driveway.Elena sighed inwardly. She should have known that Craig wouldn't let something like this go easily. He was going to quiz her about how she spent her day and she really wasn't ready for that type of conversation yet
Elena walked back to her seat after discussing with Gaby. She finds it funny that James was interested in her but didn't bother to show it as she knew Gaby was hurt.She sighed as she sat down. The bell rang and she heaved a sigh of relief. Finally this long day would be over.She was getting tired of people asking her what happened to her and Matthew and also she was tired of avoiding running into him.Not quite long ago, after lunch, when she had just come out of the restroom, she had seen him approaching from the other side and quickly ran back inside grateful that he didn't see her.She doesn't think she can handle walking past him without saying anything to him especially since she knows she was the one at fault.Matthew was proud, when it came to things like this and would definitely not want to talk to her until she apologises for what she did.And did she do? He was the one who decided to flare up. She had only opened her mouth to speak when he interrupted her and got mad at h
"I miss those times," Silver said as she notices Elena was listening to her."Yeah," Elena muttered, looking outside the car window.Listening to Silver had made her realize that Matthew always did things for her without her asking. He always made sure that he helped her and that she was comfortable even if it means getting himself in trouble."Well... Enough of the good old days. We are here," Silver said as she packed her car in front of Elena's house."Thanks for the ride home," Elena said and turned to open the car door."Aren't you coming in with me?" She asked, her hands hanging mid air."No, I would have loved to but my mom wants me to do something with her so I have to be home now. Give your mom my regards. Tell her that I loved the cupcake she sent that last time," Silver said, waving her hands at her as she opened the door and got out."Alright, bye.""Hey Elena!" She shouted as Elena was about to walk in to her house."Yeah?""Don't forget about Matthew's volleyball game, o

Matthew drove his car into the driveway of his school, his heart swelling with pride as he heard some people calling his name out as they saw him coming.He got out of the car with Sarah coming out at the other side, smiling at the people gathering around them."Matthew!! " Some girls screamed and ran to hug him.He smiled and tried to pull away from their hugs and waved at them."Man, you really played hard for the team," one guy yelled as he walked past them."Thanks man," He replied, smiling at them.He felt proud of himself especially now that a lot of people were gathering around him, proud of him.He looked over to the other side where Silver, Elena and Craig were standing watching him.He smiled and waved at them, raising his brows when he saw Craig put his hands over Elena's shoulders."Matthew, can I have lunch with you sometime? Just two of us?" A blonde walked up to him and asked.He smiled and shook his head. Funny how everyone suddenly wanted to hang out with him when not
Sarah stretched her hands to call a taxi as soon as they were out of reach from the rest of the crew."Where exactly are we going?" Elena asked.She was reluctant to go with her especially when she had knows it has to be about the so called proposal that she has planned out for Matthew when she was still processing her feelings for Matthew."The venue for my birthday, " Sarah said and opened the taxi door as one stopped in front of them.Elena stood looking at the taxi for some seconds before entering inside beside her.She still doesn't feel like going anymore. She doesn't feel like she can handle seeing Matthew being proposed to by Sarah and worst still watch him accept her.She folded her arms together as she entered ignoring what Sarah was saying and thinking back to their conversation when they were all together.Something that Silver had said earlier had clicked in her head just now. She had mentioned the way Matthew stared at her.What did she mean by that? Matthew had stare
They got to the party and parked the car at the drive way before walking in.She wanted to hold Matthew by his hands when they were entering inside but thought against it. Their relationship should come as a surprise to others.She had planned with Keith for he to spray confetti on her once she entered inside to grab everyone's attention and make her the center of attention.As soon as they got to the door, she flashed a smile on her face and walked in, pretending to be surprised when Keith sprayed the confetti on her and Matthew."Happy birthday, Sarah!!!" She shouted, alongside others in the room.She smiled and watched Matthew's face. He looked uncomfortable but she understands why. He doesn't like being the center of attention so she decided to leave there.She walked round the room greeting people and thanking them for coming, wearing a bright smile on her face.She was really happy that they all accepted her invitation and decided to come as they were all in for a surprise.She
Elena was immediately flown into a state of shock as Matthew walked away stumping with every step that he made until he was out of the birthday party, and remained on his back until he was completely out of her sight.When she could no longer see him she choked up and was as stiff as a statue she didn't know what to do or say in that situation."Elena!"She had someone call her name, and she turned around out of nothing but pure instinct while her true focus had already left the party with Matthew.Her eyelids blinked and soon she saw Frieya standing in front of her with an angry pout on her lips and her arms crossed together."Just what do you think you are doing Elena?" She spoke, her words were mostly out of concern rather than annoyance, but despite the sharpeness in the tone of her voice the other girl just stared at her without any reaction or change in the poker expression on her face.It would have actually been more reasonable talking to a mannequin right now than Elena cons
