"But what about my sister?" I asked as he sat on the driver's seat, starting the car
"It's not like we are going to kiss you know " he said with a chuckle driving off to God knows where.
"I just don't want to be the reason why you guys will fight later on, ""
"Don't worry, I've already mind linked her so she knows,""
"If you say so," I responded a comfortable silence stretching between us.
After driving for a few minutes he packed the car at an ice cream parlor.
We both got out of the car and after he bought the ice cream, we sat down and ate.
True to his words, the ice cream did make me feel a lot better and even though I didn't necessarily forget all about Claudio and Ashley, the ice cream at least made me calm down.
"You were right," I said looking at him and he was already looking at me not even eating his icecream which was slowly melting in his hands.
"Right about what?" He asked averting his gaze and taking a bite
"That ice cream is a number one healer," I said ignoring the fact that I just caught him staring at me
"I told you so, " He looked at me, lightly smiled then looked the other way.
I continued eating my cold treat
and once it was done, we both went back to his car and he drove back to the pack in a comfortable silence.
"Thank you," I said as soon as he packed the car in the garage.
"For what?"
"For the ice cream and for not making fun of me like you always do,"
" About that," he unbuckled his seat belt and faced me,
"I'm sorry, for everything that I've done to you," he apologised, not meeting my eyes, " I know a mere sorry won't fix my mistakes but it's the only thing I can say right now. I shouldn't have started the whole let's hate Angel train, I shouldn't have given you a nickname and I should have never treated you the way I did. I don't know what came over me and if you don't want to tk forgive me then I completely understand. I don't deserve to be forgive but I hope one day you will find it in your heart to pardon me.
I blinked, looking at him not sure what to say, I couldn't believe the fact that my biggest bully not only took me out for ice cream but has also apologised for treating me wrongly.
I looked outside to see if the world had suddenly turned on its axis and the pigs where flying but there was nothing out of the ordinary, everything looked normal.
"Say something, yell at me or tell you hate me but please don't stay silent,""
"What changed?
" Huh?" he looked at me his eyes knitted together in confusion
"I don't understand. What has happened that has led you to suddenly ask for forgiveness? Is it because you are feeling pity for me?""
"No of course not," he quickly said holding my hand.
" I'm not apologising because I feel pity but because I feel bad for doing everything to you, for hurting you. You didn't deserve any of that--"
" And today is when you've realised it?" I asked.
" No I've --- I understand if you don't want to forgive me but I will do anything to make it up to you,"
" I'm going to take a nap," I said getting out of the car and heading straight to my room.
I sat on the bed wondering what's going on and why my bully has suddenly switched sides
"maybe he feels genuinely bad for what he did," Lyca said in my head.
" So you thing we should forgive him?" I asked her
" Yeah it wouldn't hurt but we have to make sure Not to trust him just yet," she suggested.
" You are right about that," I responded.
I needed to be one hundred percent sure he was trust worthy before I could let my guard down
He's been my worst tormentor and the main reason why I'm miserable and friendless. Trusting him easily would just led me to more pain.

"You know I was think,"
I let out a startled gasp my hand on my chest looking at Benson who poped out of nowhere.
"You scared me," I said closing my locker and walking over to my last class before lunch break .
"Sorry I didn't mean to," he said walking with me, something that he's been doing for the passed few days,
"Oh really and what's that?' I asked
" Since Claudio is still pretending that you are invisible why don't we make a plan just to make him jealous so that he can run back you he suggested.
"And what plan is that? By the way shouldn't you be spending time with you mate?" asked looking at him
" Yes but here me out first,"
"Fire away," I said giving him my full attention
" Let's be lovers!"
