He used to hate her

Chapter-03

Oh my god, he's one of the hottest guys in our class. I should have guessed it a long time ago. You have always been distracted at classes when Xander was sitting in front of you." Sofia said with a lot of excitement. While Veronica stayed silent for a minute. I think she's taking whatever I'm saying into her mind. But she has a bright smile on her face like she's so happy for me. The thing is Xander has no idea that I have a crush on him. So, what's the point with all this excitement? Unless some situation gives me chance to make him fall in love with me. You don't know how much my life will be good if that's happened.

" You should take it to the next level. Does he talk to you? Try to make him your friend. That will do the remaining things. You are hot like him and there's all possible way for him to like you." Veronica encouraged me.

" You are saying that I'm hot because you are best friends. That's not how it works. I just confessed what's in my heart. This is gonna be a secret love hidden forever." I told them firmly so they won't push me to give it a try. I have already seen enough failures in my life. I don't want to add up this to the list. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

" Secret...No, you never know what will happen unless you give it a try. Try to act friendly with him. That doesn't include studying because that's what you are talking with him from what I know." Sofia suggested. I nodded while Veronica suggested something that almost gave me a panic attack.

" You should directly tell him what you feel. Some girls do that. I know it and I know that it works. Even if you didn't get a reply right at the minute, he will think about it and decide to spend time with you. That's enough in the beginning. Just give it a try. Trust me." Veronica sincerely said. All I could say now is, 'I will try. But need more time.

I thought about that. What could go wrong if I told what I feel. I will feel relieved and something good happens. But I guess I can take some time for it. Maybe a month or so...that could work.

Days passed by. Again and again...The more I talked with him, the more I fell for him. But I don't know whether he has a little bit feelings for me. Somehow, I'm glad he's still single. He's selective in choosing a girl. He's not a filthy-rich boy who sleeps with everyone. That's never gonna be him.

" Whoa...Veronica...what's the rush?" I asked when she almost bumped into me outside the class.

" Hey, Madison. I...I will explain it later. Can you take my notebook to our class?" She asked and of course, in the evening she explained it all. Veronica and Percy ( a senior sports guy) had an intimate moment and she almost hooks up with him. So, the first word I wanna say is gross. Do you know why did I say that? She hasn't got any feelings for him. She's interested in sports guys and flirts with a lot of them. I don't want to judge anyone, especially not my close friend. Whatever she says about the encounter with boys, I would hear it.

But Sofia doesn't have any incidents like this. She's like me. No, not like me. I'm a girl who's crushing on a guy secretly? Sofia isn't interested in anyone. Not even celebrities. I wish I know what makes her like that? But she says she doesn't even know the answer to it. Maybe she would fall in love after few years.

When exams came closer, I got no time to spend time with my friends. We barely talked and have no idea what they are doing. We three will equalize it by having a girl's night every day after all the exam stress.

That's when we had an annual day celebration in our school after two months. Our whole class had no classes. It's in the evening and we can do whatever we want in class till the celebration starts.

" I like this. Everyone got divided into all different ways. We got a whole day for ourselves. What are we gonna do?" Sofia asked as we walked in the corridor while all the other students are wandering everywhere on the third floor. But one of us is missing. We called Veronica but she said she's in the middle of something.

" What did she say? She's too late. This is the day we got time to spend together." Sofia complained.

" She said she's in the middle of something. That wasn't brief enough to understand," I said, keeping my phone inside my jeans pocket.

" Middle of hooking up with Percy. Nowadays, she's spending time with Percy a lot." Sofia sounded angry.

" Oh, maybe she's interested in him for real. When did you saw them together?" I asked.

" Well, it was a week ago. And then it was too difficult to spot here after class is over," she said. I will be happy if Percy's her boyfriend, but we should be her priority too.

" Can you go to our class? It seems like something going on here," Sofia sneaked in and called me in. I have no interest in spending time in the same class but I spotted Xander. My feet followed Sofia without hesitation. Xander seated at the table with his leg on the desk.

" Hey girls, you wanna join the game too. All are invited to truth or dare," A guy said. There are seven to eight girls and boys. I would defiently feel claustrophobic but that's okay. Xander's here and I'm not going back.

" Yeah, did you started the game already?" Sofia asked as we seated together.

" Yep, but you both are counted in too," Then they started one by one. If my chance comes, I would take the truth. I couldn't bear the risk of taking the dare. But most of them, choose dare. Some girls caught up in a situation of kissing a boy. Others passed and convinced them to change the dare. In the middle, everyone chatted and made sure we all are having fun inside the class.

Suddenly Xander called us." Hey, I have always seen you three of them together. Where's Veronica?"

" She's not here now, Xander."

" We three are not unseperateble like twins. Why are you asking?" Sofia asked. Before he could say something, the bottle spins and points in my direction. I gotta answer to my classmate, Henry, the blonde guy.

" What do you choose? I will make sure it's easy since you came to play with us for the first time," If I choose truth, it would look like I'm afraid. I can beat the odds.

" Dare,"

" Okay, so let me think. What should I give?" He said, running a hand over his hair.

" Kiss a boy you like who doesn't have a girlfriend. I'm sure there's half of the boys sitting here are single. In fact, I'm included in the list too. You can choose me too," He said like he wanted me to choose him. But what should I do? I don't want to choose Henry because he asked for it.

" Give that girl a choice. She's not going to choose you." another guy said.

" I gave her a choice. And I'm good enough to get chosen." He proudly said. He's somewhat right. But I don't want to fake it by kissing someone without liking him. This would be my first kiss. I don't want it to be fake. I should probably leave this game. If I say that I never kissed someone, I will be embarrassed.

I looked at Sofia for the next move. Her looks tell 'do what you like, don't hesitate. It's just our classmates. It will stay with us.'

By the way, you all know what I want. I want Xander. Always. If I let it flow by, I will never get a chance. I might look like a frightened girl but I got enough courage to do what I want to do. Let's do this and don't regret it. I can handle it no matter what response I get.

I'm going to kiss Xander.
