Could it have been that he like her?
Different thought played her mind, her heart turning heavy as it thud. Darkness envelope the whole place and after several hours, brightness gave way in, the morning peeping close but she is still turning around in her bed, Nathan boldly in her mind.
What if he likes her?
*Later that day*
'Is coming to his room even advisable?' she ask herself as Nathan sat beside her on the couch, opening the book he was holding. The more closer he move to amethyst, the louder her heart thud more, hearing her own heartbeat in her ear.
She put on a cold face, masking up the curiosity that lies in her.
'Amethyst.' Suddenly, he called which make her look toward him. In his eyes lies both hesitation and determination, as if he wants to say something but was forcing himself not to say it at the same time.
'What?' she asked, her brow creasing.
'Nothing.' He replied and look away before grabbing the book on the table, changing the topic totally.
'Do you want to say something?' She asked curiously.
'No, its nothing, I just saw that you are lost, focus more.' He lied, flipping through the page. Amethyst looks forward and continues reading, the both silence with eyes glued on the book but heart glued on each other, thudding loudly.
'Amethyst, be my girlfriend.' He said hurriedly, faster this time around before he could change his mind but how fast his words were was how fast shock strike amethyst and the book she was holding drop voluntarily with a loud thud.
'Huh? You…'
'Sorry, slip of tongue… All I … actually… no… no I don't mean that… be my best friend, that's what I want to say. It was just a slip of tongue.' his fingers trembled as he quickly deny, his hands sweaty. Sweat broke off his forehead and his lips tremble, his heart thudding heavily, cursing himself in his mind.
'Bastard you, if you lose her because of your selfishness, I promise not to forgive you.' His conscience scolded him, feeling that he is too forward. He shouldn't have say it like that. He should have waited more. He should have check if she like him too before saying such thing. What if she starts to ignore him now? What if she cut off every ties with him? He is the one who killed his former girlfriend so it is impossible for her to accept so why did he say this now?
'Amethyst, I'm sorry. It's okay if you don't want that. Let us be friends alone, please don't leave.' He said, scared down to the bones. Yes, he like her, but he don't mind sacrificing it so as not to be alone again. If she leaves, then he loose it all.
Amethyst stare into his watery eyes, the millions of hope that lies in it. She lowered her gaze to his hands that was now trembling prosefully.
Seeing that amethyst he now staring at him, he looked away, his hands scratching the back of his head.
'This confession should not go wrong.' He hoped.
*Earlier*
Confused, they raised their head only to see Nathan psycho standing few distance away, back leaned on the wall lazily with his right leg on the ground while the left support his body on the wall. He raises his cold silver eyes to look at them while they panicked and take lots of step to the back, nearly peeing at spot.
What did Nathan psycho came to do here?
Did he hear them call him a psycho freak?
What is he going to do to them now?
Kill them?
Bury them alive?
Or beat them to pulp?
Is he in his normal state or in the psycho state?
What if they don't make it out of here alive?
'Y.. yu… you… What did you want?' Orests stammered, hands trembling as he raise his head to look at Nathan with all the courage he had in his life, his heart running a relay.
Nathan indifference face suddenly lit up, an invisible smile on his face. He too few step toward him while Orests continue to step back, his friends' leg already shivering.
'What I want isn't much, just stay away from her …. Or I won't dictate what happens next.' He smirked, his eyes looking bloody damn cold.
'Her who?' Orests found himself asking. For him to say this, then the person must be his girlfriend. He even killed his brother because of his girlfriend. If the person he care about is in the school, the he would always avoid such person. He won't even make eye contact not to talk of staying close to such girl.
'you know her too well. Indigo.' He replied, then turn back to leave.
'indigo? Sorry but I don't know who bears that name? do you mind describing further? I promise not to show up in front of her forever and ever.' He quickly said as he hurry after him, his eyes scared yet loyal.
Who could have expect the mighty Orests Akuma to look this damn scared?
Nathan paused and then smiled coldly. 'Amethyst smith. You'd better stick to your promise.' He concluded then walks out of the old abandoned store room.
'Damn it.' Orests cursed as his hand quickly moves to his chest to feel his heart beat as Nathan disappeared.
That bastard psycho nearly gave him a heart attack.
'Geez, I knew that devil prancing in skirt is up to no good.'
'yes, she intentionally break all your rules then to gets your attention and now, she has got that psycho freak under her tiny claws.
'Are we going to give up our revenge on her then?'
'what do we do about that girl then?'
'leave her?'
'Will he kill us if we fail to head to his warnings?'
Both Abigor and adder inquired, brow creased.
'Shut the HELL up!' Orests yelled angrily, his brow furrowed like that of an angry bird.
'stay away from that bastard for now. She is gonna fall out with him soon and then, I will get my revenge in a long length.'
