Loving Him

Marco's POV

"We found her Sir."

"Good"

"What shall we do Sir?"

"Know her background and where she's now living," I said as I put down the phone.

Flashback

I was looking for a book in the library when someone called me by my nickname.

"Hey kid!"

I turned my heels to see who is calling me and my heart beat fast. It was her, the one whom I admired here in the campus.

"Y-yes?" I was stammering.

"I was kinda need some help and maybe you could help me. Please!" she bit her lower lip.

I gulp as I see her bit her lip and I admit it was very s.e.xy when she does it. She snaps her finger at me.

"Can you help me?" she pouted.

"Y-yeah of-of course. What c-can I help?" I hated myself as I look nervous in front of her.

"It's Calculus and I can't understand some of the problems. I have my homework with me and maybe can you answer this for me?"

"Wh-when do you exactly need it ?" I asked.

"Uhm, tomorrow perhaps," she said.

"O-okay," I absentmindedly replied.

"Yey! so where can I find you tomorrow?" she squeaked.

"Library"

"Hey Vaughn! Let's go! Were running late for our practice! Ohhh, looks who's with Vaughn its the geek guy! Hey, geek can you do my home works too?!" friends of her shouted and they all laugh.

"Sorry for my friends but don't worry I'll give them some of my words," she apologized and that's why I fall for her she's not like the other girls that they'll just gonna befriend you because they want anything but she's different than I thought.

"It's okay I'm used to it."

She bid her goodbye and run to her friends who waited her.

"Oh girl! you nailed it!" they shouted.

She waves me for the last time and I wave her my goodbye too. I can't stop myself smiling for no reason that's why people look at me ridiculously but I ignored them.

"How's your day going Nero?" Rosso asked.

Rosso is my best of friends. We just made our names, Nero stands for black and Rosso stands for red. We understand on our own ways. Rosso is one of the wealthy people in this campus because in a young age he is already handling their company but he chooses to study first before going to a complicated life. We were both the same stand in our life. Soon, I will be handling our company but only Rosso knows that I am the grandchild of this school and have a powerful family. I don't want to vulgar who I am that's why I keep it a secret and asked a favor to my grandpa to keep this a secret 'till I'm ready and even he is not in favor with, he finally agreed.

"Great!" I said as I opened my locker while smiling.

"What's with the smile Bro? Its kinda gay," he laughs slamming the side of my locker cause people to gaze on our direction and say Hi to Rosso and just ignored me giving me their disgust look.

"Well hello girls," he says and giving them a wink and they all giggled.

After I arranged my books unto my locker and get what I needed and I was just gonna turn around when my eyes meet her and Rosso whistled for the appearance of her. I punch Rosso for his behavioral, he just gives me his sheepish smile. I was just gonna walk thinking she would just have passed by when she called me by my nickname again.

"Kid!" she shouted for the third time. I didn't take a look of her and I don't know why but I suddenly run and I felt like a gay who is running away. Like a jackass.

"Damn! Whats wrong with me!" I shouted when I got unto the top of the building.

"Hey," I jump when someone opened the door.

"Ohhh, sorry for scaring you. Uhm, why did you run away?" she added.

"I don't know either," I said sounding like a jerk that's why I hated myself for looking like dumb in front of her.

We stayed silent for a moment and just sit on the floor.

"Kid," she speaks first breaking the silence.

"Call me Nero," I said.

"But I do like to call you kid than Nero," she said as she gets a pebble and throw it in the wall.

"Why did you call me?" I asked.

"Uhm."

"Your homework? It's not done yet. I'll give it to you tomorrow morning if yo-"she cut me off.

"I like you," she whispered but I heard it clearly but I just can't believe she's saying those words on me. How can a girl like her will like me, I mean everybody bullied and tease me due to my image?

"You're mistaken," I said.

"No I really do like you," she repeated.

"I don't know either where it started but the day I look at your eyes there is something that makes me feel safe," she added.

"Why me? Is this kind of a prank?"

"Please, believe me,"she pleaded as she stands up.

I did not reply for a minute and just look at the field. She gives a deep sigh and inhaled deeply.

"I guess I disturb you. Sorry for disturbing, I'll get my homework tomorrow morning, thank you for your time," she said as she walks in the door.

"I like you too," I said but I don't know if she heard it but she suddenly stops and turned to face me. I was already in the front of her cause her too outbalanced herself.

"Careful," I said as I grip her waist.

She slightly blushes cause her cheeks to go in pink.

"Thank you," she shyly said.

That day we started dating and I asked her if I even got a chance if I court her. My hope didn't fail me, every day I'm courting her even at school, yes the whole campus knows that. Everyone adores and knows her but when they know that she and I got linked, hatred and gossip spread that I just seduced her, blackmailed her, just making stories telling how ambitious I am. But she just ignored those people.

After how many weeks she finally said her yes and we got official. I was the happiest man that day, I promised her that I would do everything for her, I would make her happy and every day I'll court her. I give my full trust to her and my love and she does the same too. When our second anniversary comes, I rented an expensive restaurant just for the both of us, I've decided that I can finally tell her the truth about my life but after 3 hours she did not arrive but I did not lose hope that she'll come and I waited patiently outside thinking that she's in the traffic.

But my heart sank that she's not going on our date. I rush on the rack where the wines are displayed the waiters stop me but I just glared them and give my black card and they all step back. My phone vibrates and I immediately answered it hoping that it was her who is calling but it was Rosso.

"Where are you?" he asked straightly in the second line.

"Why do you care," I replied angrily due to the alcohol that I drink and my emotions.

"Where are you?" he repeated.

"Heith Restaurante," I replied.

"Wait for me there," he ended the call.

After how many minutes Rosso arrived. The alcohol did not even get me drunk.

"Nero," he said as he walks to my direction.

I did not reply instead I just played the shot glass. He slammed his fist cause me to face him. He is mad and I don't know what he is mad with.

"F.u.c.k!" I hissed.

"You don't even know?" he said.

"Know what?!" I frowned.

"That Vaughn was just playing you around!" he shouted.

"You don't have the right to accuse her like that in my face," I stated firmly.

"Don't blame me if I did not warn you," he said and walk away not even glancing.

It was Monday and I got intrigued when the entire student's rush into the gymnasium. Everybody was looking at me till I was in the gym they all step back as I walk in their path, they all look at me with disgust on their faces and laugh. Till I was the only one standing at the center of the gym, my eyes roamed at the people who are laughing and gossiping my name.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, here in front of us the ambitious, geek, freak and a feeler to have Mirana Vaughn Welch to be his so called girlfriend," after that people laugh wildly.

"And here is the video and pictures that is patiently waiting for her girlfriend and look at his face. Pitiful!"

"Yeah!" they all agreed.

"I know right," she laughs.

"And now to complete this romantic show let us welcome Mirana Vaughn Welch! The best actress!" they all screamed, whistled and clapped their hands.

I cannot believe that she is just playing and fooling me, after all this year. I got played in her game. My heart squirms in pain seeing her smirking at me. I don't care if people disgust and trash me but not Mirana, she's my life my everything. My world flipped over.

"You! You actually waited for me. You actually believe in my words?" she laughed wickedly.

"Well dream on Kid!" she added and all people screamed.

I stoop down my knees and tears are falling fluently in my face. I don't care if they all see me in this image.

"You're joking right? Is this kind of a prank?"

"No. I'm. Not. Mister," she said and left leaving me in that scene. They all throw me whatever they want and some other punch and kick me. I don't even fight back, I cannot feel pain anymore than the pain she already gives me.
