C43 forty three

I just shook my head. I hope Angel and the others haven't gone home yet because we're all going to get scolded.

"This isn't a hangout spot, go home, damn it!" Cyrus shouted.

He even kicked and pushed his friends, as if he didn't hear anything because they didn't budge.

"If you guys don't--"

"Cyrus," I called out to him.

He raised an eyebrow. He straightened up and ran his fingers through his hair.

"Just leave them, stay here," I pointed to the space beside me.

Since it's a round sofa anyway.

He pouted and grinned. "Okay," was his simple reply.

"Seriously," Sai muttered before sitting on the floor.

He's been annoying since earlier.

"Shut up," Cyrus snapped at him.

Sai quickly sat beside me and wrapped his arm around my waist.

"What's wrong?" I lightly hit his arm.

He pulled away and turned to me. "These guys are so annoying. They didn't even give you a glass," he said, glaring at his friends. "I'll just get one," he said, excusing himself.

I just nodded, so he smiled and stood up.

"There! Behind you! Idiot!" Jake angrily shouted.

"Damn it!" Izi cursed.

Ben stood up and pointed at the screen. "You're too slow, idiot!"

"There! Damn it!" Sai laughed.

"You're an idiot!" Wendrix said.

"You're really going to die because of your stupidity!" Hugo shouted angrily.

I glanced at the screen; they must be watching a horror movie because it's obvious from the woman lying in the grass and bathing in blood. I cringed at the sight of the blood; it looks so real.

"You're so loud!" Cyrus scolded them.

He sat beside me again and reached for the 1.5-liter coke on my side and opened it. He handed me a glass to pour some.

"I'll do your school work," he said.

He handed me a slice, so I took it and raised an eyebrow at him.

"That's my school work, so I'll do it," I took a bite of the pizza.

Good thing he ordered ham and cheese, or else I might choke him.

He cleared his throat. "I'll help you," before taking a bite of the pizza too.

I took a sip of the coke. "Okay," and handed him the glass again.

"What's it about?" he asked as he poured.

I leaned back and faced him directly.

"I forgot, but he said he'll send the details again via email," I replied and scratched my head lightly.

He nodded thoughtfully. I glanced at the ones on the floor who were seriously focused on the screen.

I adjusted my sitting position and smiled mischievously at Cyrus, who was frowning and watching me walk towards Izi, who was blushing.

"Hey!" I said, grabbing his shoulder.

He immediately jumped. "Damn you!" he exclaimed in surprise.

I chuckled at how scared he looked. But he quickly covered it up and faced Cyrus, who was angrily approaching him.

"How dare you! Why did you curse at Selene?" he attacked Izi.

Izi immediately ran behind me and hid. I laughed as I faced Cyrus.

"I was just surprised! I got carried away by my feelings, that's why I cursed at her!" he reasoned.

I rolled my eyes. "You're so dramatic, Cyrus," I said irritably and walked back to the sofa.

I pulled him back too because Izi seems to be finding a place for him. Like seriously! What's with the reaction?

"Stop it, Cyrus," I scolded him.

He's glaring at Izi again. Like a child!

"Give me more," I held out the glass.

He nodded. "So you'll automatically have coke," he joked.

"Corn," I replied.

He chuckled. "Are the details not sent yet? So we can get started,"

He scooted closer to me and tucked a few strands of hair behind my ear.

I stared at him. He swallowed hard, evident from the movement of his Adam's apple.

I shrugged. "I don't know, my phone and laptop are in the room," I replied, avoiding his gaze.

He gently held my cheeks and tried to make me face him. He was trying to catch my gaze, but I kept avoiding it. He smiled, annoyed that I looked at him in annoyance.

He lightly brushed both sides of my cheeks.

He planted soft kisses on my forehead... On the bridge of my nose and smiled at me.

I immediately slapped his hand because I know his moves. What? Is he going to kiss me on the lips and then I'll get carried away, so I'll kiss him back?! No!

"Stop it," I scolded him.

I slightly moved away and just bit into the pizza.

"Stingy," he complained.

I just rolled my eyes at him. "Stingy your face!" I retorted.

I felt him move closer and tried to pull me towards him. I could feel myself panicking again and I didn't know where to turn.

Is he going to kiss me again?! Why do I feel excited?!

He moved again, and I moved closer to him. I was slightly stunned when he lightly touched my forehead. This is exactly what happened earlier!

He rested his chin on my shoulder. His breaths were heavy.

"I love you," he whispered sweetly in my ear.

"Damn it!" Sai shouted.

He even pointed at us to Cyrus.

"You're both so affectionate!" Cyrus snapped.

We remained in that position.

Sai chuckled. "You guys are too flirty," he teased.

I just touched my forehead while Cyrus just shook his head.

You're such a buzzkill, Sai! I hate you!
