hauntingly beautiful
Chapter 14
After morning classes that day, it was finally lunch hours.
I was caught up into a crowd of students, who were rushing towards their lockers to drop their stuff off.
I tried to weave my way by them, so I could get to the library early.
I felt someone pushing my shoulder, as tripped over someone's legs.
I felt myself shooting forwards.
I closed my eyes tightly, preparing myself for the impact of falling.
But, instead, my face fell into someone's built chest.
My eyes opened, as I peered upwards.
A blush crepted upon my face, as Hunter smiled down smugly on me.
My body was pressed agaisnt his, as he held my waist from falling.
His warm fingers were burning against my skin, even though I was wearing a shirt.
"I saved you." he stated the obvious.
I was so mesmerized by his blue eyes.
I narrowed my eyes away, knowing I had to avoid him at all causes.
I squirmed out of his grip, as I brushed by him.
I took in a deep breath, as my stomach twisted in a ball of guilt.
I knew I shouldn't be like this to Hunter, after all he had done for me.
But, Maddi...
"Hayden, hold on!" Hunter called, pressing his hand on my shoulder.
Her turned me around, as I stared right at him.
"Would you want to get something to eat after school?" he asked me, hope glistening in his eyes.
The word 'yes' almost slipped out of my mouth.
It would've, if it weren't for a pair of evil eyes staring at me behind Hunter's shoulder.
My eyes widened with fear, as my palms became sweaty.
I gulped, as Maddi gave me a warning look.
I closed my eyes briefly, as I stared back at Hunter.
"I-I can't." I stammered.
His mouth slightly pouted.
"What about tomorrow, yeah?" he asked.
I sighed, as Maddi smirked at me.
"I can't, either, Hunter." I said, almost sounding hurt.
He frowned, using his thumb, rubbing circles on my temples.
"Is there something wrong, Hayden?" he asked worriedly.
Yes, there is.
"No, Hunter." I paused, looking at Maddi, who was glaring at me threateningly.
"Listen, Hunter." I sighed, pushing his hands away from me. "I-I can't hang around you anymore."
My throat tightened up.
"Why not?" he asked, frowning.
"Be- because I don't like you." I said, voice cracking.
Maddi, who stalked us from behind Hunter's shoulder, smiled with satisfaction.
Hunter looked startled, staring at me with shock.
"Not even as friends." I lied. "I don't like you, at all. You're just one dumb jock."
I could feel my eyes welling up with tears, as I broke free from Hunter's grip.
I began to run down the hall, hiding in the corner.
Tears streamed down my face, as I pressed my head against the wall.
I was being so selfish, hiding my own past and risking Hunter and my friendship.
I'm so sorry, Hunter.
I'm so sorry, Cameron.
