chapter 26

Angel’s POVI rush towards the door and open and, “SURPRISEEEEE” said everyone.“Oh my GOOOODDD thanks guys for coming here.” I say and hug everyone including Sarah who was there.They all then moved and showed me the way to my destination, THE FOOD. “Lasagna with extra cheese yummmyyyy come’on guys let’s attack.” I say and we all attacked the food and ate to our heart’s content. I thought to myself, ‘No wonder Ryan smelled so good, it was from the Lasagna, I’m sure it is prepared by him’ as I take my first bite.I had seen Sarah take food separately and go so I let her. After a while when everyone were talking, suddenly Zach got a call and he excused himself and I looked Ryan wasn’t there in the room and I was surprised. I excused myself from everyone and went to look for him and also to check upon Sarah.To my surprise both were together in Sarah’s room. I peep in a little and see that Sarah and Ryan were playing and talking with each other.“Thank you Ryan for keeping your promise. You are playing with me and also you made sis smile and be herself again.” said Sarah“Anything for you my princess and for Angel too.” Said Ryan.I see them together and smile and leave. He indeed made me smile and be myself not just today but many times in the past too.Everyone were there for few hours and then left as tomorrow was school day. After they left I went and slept too and checking upon Sarah and talking to her for a while.The next day.I woke up from my long sleep. I noticed that the time was 6 a.m. which meant school time. I stretched my hands and rubbed my eyes. I got up from bed and walked towards shower. I put on my favorite Justin Bieber music and sang while showering. After few minutes of nice shower, I walked towards my walk-in closet. I looked at my collection of clothes. ‘Hmmm what should I wear today?’ I grabbed a cute tank top with “Babe” written on it and a jeans and wore it. Shoes hmm I decide to wear boots and of course My Gucci Belt. I took my Louis Vuitton bag and sprayed perfume and applied little makeup. I looked at myself in mirror and said “All set to go.” I blew myself a flying kiss and walked towards the dining area. I love to pamper myself. It brings me happiness, and today was my new beginning I had to rock it.I saw my parents were eating and talking. They looked at me and smiled and said “Good morning Angel.” I said “Good morning mom and dad. Hi my cutie.” Sarah was eating her favorite eggs and bacon. I chuckled as she had some ketchup on her face. She is a cute baby indeed. Sarah said “Hi sis. Let’s eat.” I smiled and ate with her. We all talked and had a small family time when it was time to go to school.After we finished we hugged our parents and went to school. After 20mins we reached and Sarah walked to her class. I too walked towards my locker. I was going to grab my books when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned and saw it was Leah and she hugged me. I hugged her back and she said “My you look great today. I bet Zach will not take his eyes off you.” I blushed a little and said “Stop it.”“And I won’t be taking my eyes off from you sweetie.”We both heard the voice and turned towards it. It was none other than Leo. He was smirking and I turned to see Leah’s face full red. I smirked and said “Someone is blushing.”Leah smacked me and said “I AM NOT BLUSHING!!”Leo smirked and walked towards Leah. He put his hand towards her waist and pulled her close. Leah was shocked and he said “You look beautiful babe.” Leah pulled herself back and shouted “TRY THAT ONCE MORE AND YOU WILL MEET YOUR GRAVE.”Leo smirks and says “Before you do that can I get a kiss please?”Leah hissed “I am not kissing your sloppy face.”Leo smirked “Ouch, I’m hurt. Can you kiss me now?”Leah hissed “Even if you’re the last man on earth I will still not be yours and NOR WILL I KISS YOU!! Uggghhh I am going.” And she walks off.Leo smirks and says “I will get that kiss.”Leah shouts from other end “NEVER!!”Leo chuckled and walks behind her. On the other end I see them quarrelling like a married couple. I laugh while watching them, this was funny indeed. I laughed at their conversation.  What a cute couple they will be. I hope they come together soon. I just want my best-friend to be happy. I smiled and closed the locker and I saw Ryan and Rhea walking towards me. I smiled and hugged both of them. Ryan says “I am glad to see you smiling Angel.”I said “Yes Ryan you are right. I can’t be sad now. I just have to move on.”Ryan smiles and said “That’s good.” To be honest I am starting to like him around me more especially after I have known that all these years I was with Zach, Ryan used to get me gifts indirectly. I don’t know why but I am getting goose bumps inside. Why am I feeling like that for Ryan? I am starting to like his voice. It feels like I want to hear more of it. I don’t know why I am feeling like this. I got snapped from my thoughts when Rhea screamed “Earth to Angel!! Where are you lost?” I looked at him and said “Nothing just.”Rhea smirked “I noticed you smiling. Is there something wrong?”I stuttered “N-Nothing.” Oh god I hope Ryan didn’t notice that I was smiling at him and not. *Sigh* I hate my life right now. I don’t know why I am getting these feelingsRhea was confused and said “Okay…”I felt hands on my waist and a head on my shoulders. I noticed it was Zach and he said “You look beautiful babe.” I blushed and turned to give a peck on his lips and I said “Thank you babe.”I heard everyone laughing in the hall. I noticed and turned to see Viki walking with her head down and people were laughing at her. Some even called her Fake Barbie. Some called her Plastic whore and other bad stuff. I felt bad for her but what she did to me was also not acceptable either. But this was bad enough too. I hope she realized what does body shaming do. Ryan says from back “Serves her right. She should realize how one feels when someone body shames you.”Zach replied “Yea man you are right. Let her get the taste of her own medicine.”Rhea also added “Yes. She deserved this. That bitch doesn’t deserve all good credit.”I said “I feel bad though.”They looked at me with surprise and Ryan understood what I meant. He nodded and Rhea asks “Why in the world would you feel bad? I mean she did body shame you Angel.”I said “But I know how it feels to be body shamed. No one deserves this but what she did was not acceptable but at the same time what is happening to her isn’t right either.”The three nodded and Zach said “Angel is right but she shouldn’t have done this to you baby.”I kissed Zach and said “I know babe but still. No one needs to be body shamed.”We all looked at each other and Ryan said “Well you are right. Anyways let’s go to class.”We all nodded and walked towards the class.After few hoursThe bell rang. Thank god this lecture is over. Mrs. Isa bores me a lot. Half of time she checks her hair and makeup as if she is miss universe or something. Like what the hell old woman!! On top her lectures are too boring that I can’t even study Physics with fun. Not that I don’t like the subject but the teacher is boring.I packed my bags and walked towards the cafeteria. As soon as I reached, I noticed everyone was sitting together. I went and sat next to Zach. We both hugged each other and Zach said “I’ll get you food babe.” I smiled and said “Okay baby.”Zach got up and walked towards the area where they served food. Leah was talking about something when Leo appeared and smirked at Leah. Hmm this is going to be funny.Leo says while smirking “Hi, I’m Mr. Right. Someone said you were looking for me?”Leah “No one was looking for you douche!! ESPECIALLY NOT ME!!”Leo smirks “Feisty. I still like it.”Leah hisses “AND I HATE IT WHEN YOU TALK LIKE THAT!!”Leo smirks and says “It’s not my fault that I fell for you, you tripped me!”Leah’s face turned red. Everyone started saying “oooooo”. Max whistled too and Leah smacked his arm. We all started laughing at their conversation. Leah hissed “STOP LAUGHING!”Leo smirks and says “I’m not done yet baby.”Leah rolled her eyes and started eating. Leo looks at her with such love. Aww I like Leo. He is a great friend and I know he will keep Leah happy. He watches her eat and says “I guess your parents are bakers.”Leah stops eating and looks at him with confusion and asks “NO THEY ARE NOT! WHY DO YOU ASK?”Leo smirks and says “Because they made you such a cutie pie! You look so cute while eating.”Leah rolls her eyes and continues eating. Leo chuckles and starts eating too. I was smirking at Leah and Zach came with my food. I kissed him and said “Thank you babe.” Zach says “You’re welcome.”I noticed that Ryan and Mia were talking and laughing. I was feeling weird inside. Like, I hate it when they do that. I was feeling jealous maybe? Nah I shouldn’t feel that way. I should be happy for Ryan. But why am I not feeling happy? I felt a hand on my shoulder and saw Zach looking at me with concern look. He asks “All okay babes? Why aren’t you eating?”I gave a smile and said “Yea just got lost in thoughts.”Zach gave me a kiss on forehead and said “Okay baby. Eat now.” I love it when Zach does this. Aww I am lucky to have Zach. But why am I feeling the same for Ryan too? Why is Ryan in my thoughts? I have Zach right? Ugh these feelings need to go!! I cannot feel anything for Ryan!I started eating and I saw Ryan looking at me and then continuing to talk to Mia. Why is he doing this? Have I done anything wrong? No right? Why is he behaving strange? And why do I like him looking at me? Ugh what’s with these feelings? I heard laughing in the cafeteria. I turned along with others to see everyone pointing at Viki and laughing. To be honest I didn’t like it. She was crying? Viki never cried in her life but today what happened? Has the Earth tilted or what?I needed to stop this. I got up and walked towards Viki. I screamed at the people who were laughing “ALRIGHT THAT’S ENOUGH!! STOP LAUGHING AT HER.”Everyone stopped laughing and one said, “She body shamed you Angel! Why are you defending her?”I said “So what. Even she was body shamed too.”Another person said “Serves her right!!”I shouted “NO ONE DESERVES THIS! Not me and not her.”There was silence in the cafeteria. I continued “Look what she did was wrong and same thing happened to her. It is fair but everyone has feelings right? We shouldn’t body shame anyone. Be it big or small. Everyone is beautiful and unique in their own way. We all have flaws and that’s what makes us special and different. What if this happens to you? Would you like it? No right? So why do to her then? She also has feelings right? I’d suggest we stop all this and let her be.”Viki looks at me with no expression or reaction and she left quietly. Everyone started clapping at me. Some even whistled and some said “You go angel!!”I smiled and walked back to my seat. My friends came and hugged me. Ryan smiled and said “That was a brave thing to do.”Mia said “Yea that was a good move. You did a good thing Angel.”Zach kissed me and said “You truly are an Angel.”Rhea said “Yea Zach is right. After what she did you, you still defended her. I am proud of you Angel.”Lucas, Leo & Max jumped and said “GO ANGEL!!”Leah hugged me tight and said “Proud of you bestie.”I chuckled and said “Thank you guys.” We all group hugged each other and we all said “Friends forever.” The bell rang and we all walked and talked towards our classes. Today was a good day indeed.After school.The bell rang and I started packing my bags. I walked towards my locker to carry other books when Zach came towards me. He kissed me and said “I am proud of you baby for what you did today.”I smiled and said “Thanks baby. It was the right thing to do.”Zach looked down and said “Umm there is something I want to ask you babe.”I said “Sure what is it?”Zach asked “After what has happened since few days, I know you must be feeling low. So I wanted to ask if we can start over again. Maybe I take you out on a date?”I hugged him and said “Sure baby. I’d love to go.”Zach hugged me back excitedly and said “How about we… you know what let it be a surprise…Be ready by 8 p.m. tomorrow and I’ll pick you.”I smiled and said “Sure.”Zach kissed me and said “See you tomorrow hon. Bye.”I kissed him back and said “Bye baby.”He walked away. I smiled at his back. Gosh he is so cute. I am lucky to have Zach in my life. I just want things to go smoothly now. No more drama. I was closing my locker and noticed Ryan coming towards me. Gosh he looks cute right now with his glasses. Ugh what? Did I say that? Never mind!!Ryan smiles at me and says “Hey Angel. What’s up?”I said “Oh I was just leaving.”Ryan says “Oh okay. I guess I’ll pack too.”That is when Mia comes and says, “Hey Ryan. Hi Angel.”We both said “Hi Mia.” Together.Mia then asks “Umm Ryan, you said about us going out. How about we go tomorrow?”Ryan smiles and says “Okay let’s go tomorrow.” To be honest I again got these weird feelings. Like, I do not like Mia with Ryan. What’s wrong with me really? Why am I feeling like this? I should feel happy right? Why am I feeling angry?I closed the locker and said “Bye guys.”Ryan and Mia said “Bye.”I left. I couldn’t stand there for long or I’d create scene for no reason. I am with Zach but I am behaving like I like Ryan. I really don’t know why I am feeling like this. I should be happy for Ryan right? He has got someone who really appreciates him. Then why am I feeling angry and jealous? I sat in my car and went home.The rest of the day went like that.  It was night and I was resting on my bed. I notice Ryan appearing and coming and kissing me and saying “I love you”. I said “I love you too.” but I woke up from bed and noticed it was just a dream. *Sigh* I got up and went towards the balcony. I took a glass of water and was drinking while looking out. The sky was shining with stars. The night was eerie silent and I am constantly thinking of Ryan. Why am I constantly thinking about Ryan? Zach is my boyfriend not Ryan. Then why am I getting these weird dreams and thoughts. Why am I getting these weird feelings? What’s wrong with me? I sighed and walked towards my bed. I put my blanket and went off to sleep.Hey guys. Hope you liked this chapterWhy is Angel feeling like this? What will happen in the date? Why did Viki leave suddenly?
