chapter 7

Ryan's POVNext day!I woke up from my long slumber. I checked the time on my phone and it showed 6am which meant I had to go to school. Also, in 2 days it is my love's birthday. My sweet Angel. I was dreaming of her in her birthday dress. Gosh she would look like a queen. Only if she were mine. I sighed and got up from bed and went for shower. I came out and wore my clothes and I went down for breakfast. Oh yeah! I need to call Justin too for giving her surprise. I hope she likes it.I walked towards the dining table and ate my breakfast with Rhea. Mom and dad weren't there so I assumed that they went for work. Rhea was on her phone while eating and I too started eating. I was done when our driver came inside to take us to school. So we both got up and went to school.After 20 minutes we reached school and when we walked in we saw Max running towards us. We both waved and he came and kissed Rhea. I rolled my eyes and they both looked at me with their eyebrow raised.Max said "Bro not my fault when you don't have a girl."I said "Get a room at least!"They both laughed and we walked towards our class.30 minutes laterI was writing down my notes when a new guy had entered. He was holding his bag and his hair was black in color. He had brown eyes and his body was perfect. He had muscles like Zach and was looking like athletic.Our teacher said "Welcome Leo. Class this is Leo our new student. Please be good with him."All the girls were drooling at him and all the guys looked jealous.Everyone started murmuring when our teacher silenced the class.Our teacher said "No talking. Leo please take a seat next to Ryan. Ryan please help him in the topic we are learning now. "I nodded and Leo walked towards me and sat down next to me. He smiled and I smiled back and helped him with the chapter we were doing in class.The bell rang and we both walked out from the class.Leo said "Could you show me the next class please?"I smiled and said "Sure. Please show me your schedule handed to you."He gave me the schedule and I was looking. His next class was Math which was same as mine.I said to him "The next class is same as mine so I'll show you around plus we can walk towards our class."He smiled and said "You are a good person. I could do a friend like you. If you don't mine can I sit with you during lunch?"I smiled and said "Sure. I will introduce you to my sister and my best-friend."We both were talking and walking and we then reached our class.After 1 hourIt was break time. I packed my things and walked towards the cafeteria. Leo was with me in most of the classes so he was walking along with me. We reached the cafeteria and walked towards Max and Rhea who were sitting down and eating.I waved at them and said to Leo "Leo meet my sister Rhea and my best-friend Max. Guys this is Leo."Max took out his hand to shake and said "Nice to meet you Leo."Leo shakes his hand and said "You too Max."We all sat down with our trays and were eating and talking. While I was listening to Max's talks I saw her. I saw my sweet Angel. She was looking extremely gorgeous today in her jeans and t shirt. She had less makeup which made her look even more beautiful. Her red hair was tied into a ponytail and she was walking with a girl. The girl wasn't looking familiar so I guess she must be new student. Angel's beauty was unique. Her smile, her eyes, and the way she talks and moves. Anyone would fall in love with her beauty and uniqueness.I was admiring her when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around and saw it was Leo looking confused.He asked "I assume it is the red hair girl you like?"I was about to say yes when Max whispered to him "Not like. He LOVES her." and winked at me.I glared at him and heard Rhea giggling. Leo smirked and said "Why don't you ask her out?"I sighed and told him "Her name is Angel and she is my best-friend too. And I can't ask her out since she is dating someone else."He pouted and showed the expression Ooooo and said "I don't like the guy with her though. He looks suspicious to me."Max said "I feel the same too Leo. I feel he might hurt her."I said "If he does I'll feed his bones to the dogs. But I know he won't as he had promised Leah and me that he will take care of her."Max said "I still don't trust him. I might have to keep an eye on him. Angel is like my sister and I won't let anyone hurt her."Leo said "who is Leah by the way. Is it the hot brunette near Angel?"I said "Yeah she is the brunette. But be careful she is a feisty one."Leo smirked and said "I like her. I'll make her mine 😉."Leo told me he was a play boy in his previous school but he had quit before shifting to new school. Now he said he wants to find his true love.He looked at her and smirked and she glared at him back. Angel and I looked at each other and we laughed. Those two will be a perfect match.The bell rang and we exited the cafeteria.On our way towards our class I heard Zach calling us. Ugh I hated him a lot for having angel. But still nothing could be done as he is her boyfriend after-all and I can't be rude otherwise Angel would not like it. I smiled at him and said "Hi Zach."He smiled too and said "Hi Ryan. I wanted to talk to you about something." I knew what it was but was having doubts about it so I nodded and walked with him towards the passage.I saw Max saying no but I didn't listen and walked with him. We reached the passage way and he asked me "Umm Ryan. Do you have any ideas to surprise Angel? I know her birthday is in two days and I have nothing to give her. Could you lend me your gift like last year bro?"I was boiling up inside. I mean after dating her for 2 years he can't even remember what she likes. I sometimes don't understand why she is with Zach. What if she found out that I am the one helping? She would hate me. But I always ensured she never found out and she never did. This time also I have to ensure she doesn't find out.I smiled and said "I was going to give her favorite book and a painting of hers so you can have it."He hugged me and said "Thanks bro. You are the best! I'll come to your house to collect it."I hugged him back and said "Sure. I'll gift her something else. Also ensure to decorate her room. She would like that. "Zach said "Thanks a lot bro." And went towards his class.I walked back to Max who was glaring at me.He seethed "I knew Zach has forgotten her gift. And of course you being you decided to help him."I sighed and said "Relax Max. I won't let him have my Justin's surprise. I decided to give him the painting and her favorite book."He seethed "Still he should know by now what to give her. Gosh I hate that guy!"I said "Calm down bro and let's go to our class."He rolled his eyes and we walked back to our respective class.The next day was usual as it was a Saturday. I got up a bit late did my usual chores and headed down for our special brunch. Every Saturday the whole family used to have it together as we all didn't get time to eat together.That late afternoon, doorbell rang, Rhea was in her room and my parents had left for their work. While wondering who it could be, I went to check and opened the door to see Zach standing in a hoodie covering his face.I understood why he had come like that as he did not want anyone to see him come here specially Angel."Come in." I said. He entered and said, "Hey man! Could you please get the gift I need to go back too I have another works to finish too."Me: "Sure, but have a seat first let me get it for you till then."Zach: "Ok cool, thanks bro!"I went up to get the painting and the book which was packed and kept in my room. As I reached upstairs I heard my phone rang. I looked at the caller ID and it was ...Hey guys!!! Who could be calling Ryan??? Your guess could be right.
