Chapter 3 3

My best friend was shocked when she heard the news. She was at my door the next day looking worried. I took her to my room and there I narrated to her how the whole event took place. She didn't hide the fact that she was surprised, she couldn't cause that was a shocking news. She asked if I informed my parents about it but I refused I told her that I was scared and I didn't want them to know about it. She promised me that she wouldn't tell a soul about news and she promised to keep it a secret. We changed the topic and discussed about something else. She told me how she was thinking of taking up an after school sport activity I also wanted to take up an after school sport activity but i didn't know the one to go for. I tried cheer leading last session but i was bullied by the senior girls so I left. We spent the rest of the day talking about radom things. We later joined the family downstairs for lunch after which I left with Margaret to her baseball practice. She had baseball practice at school she was the team captain. Since they had a big game coming up, they had to make use of the school pitch to train on weekends. I sat on the bleaching boards like a proud mother watching my best friend train for her upcoming game. I was cheering for Margaret when my eyes caught something beautiful . A very stunning guy who could be mistaken for one of those male models that you see on television. He had thick long blonde hair, big bright smile that reflected his beautiful brown bright eyes, he was also very tall and elegant. I don't think I've ever seen him in River stone Academy. He walked up to where I was sitting I noticed that everyone's attention was drawn to him at this point. I wasn't the only one admiring this hunk, the whole school was. When I noticed he was moving towards where I was sitting, I quickly looked away pretending to be focused on the game. He came and sat next to me. "you must really enjoy the game" he said bringing me back to reality. I snapped out of my thought and let out a chuckle before addressing him. "my name is Chris" he said extending his hands out for a hand shake and a proper introduction from me. " Jade Smith" I said still stunned by how stunning Chris looked. "do you play too?" he asked snapping me right out of my thought again. "no I don't I just came to watch my best friend" I said staring him in the eyes. I noticed he was feeling a little uncomfortable so I took my eyes away from his and instead, took time to study his fit. He had a brown tank top on with a pair of black shorts and a casual males footwear on. It was quite hot so the tank top was quite acceptable. You could see his broad chest from his tank top and his biceps just sat there staring at me. He was so built for his age even though I didn't his age. "oh ain't you going to ask me too" he said drawing my attention away from his body to his pretty face. " sorry do you play?" I asked locking eyes with his. "no I don't. I play basketball and I'll love it if you could come watch me sometime" he said. Is he flirting with me? I thought to myself. He thought I was not comfortable with he said so he quickly tried to change what he said. "or I can teach you" he said hoping to break the silence. "well that's not a bad idea I was thinking of an after school sport and basketball sounds great I haven't tried it before" I said sounding very excited to ease the tension that was beginning to surround the atmosphere. "okay then it's a date" he said wearing a smile across his face. He was definitely flirting with me. I thought to myself before letting out a smirk. " so why are you here" I said trying to change the topic. " I came to pick up my little sister" he said feeling like a proud big brother. We spent the last few minutes talking about radom things and laughing. We also took time to watch the game and he siezed the opportunity to show me his little sister. She was also a blonde. "she's blonde too I guess it runs in the family" I said smiling at him. He let out a chuckle " well only my mom, me and my younger sister. My dad and elder brother ain't blonde though" he said. So there's more where he came from I said to myself and went on to imagine how his elder brother would look. Soon the practice was over and it was time to go. Britney, Chris's sister packed her bags and ran towards her brother while I went down to join my best friend. "I'll see you at practice tomorrow?" Chris asked clutching his sister's bag on his shoulder. "sure thing" I said excitedly as I walked to where my best friend was. She was waiting for me in the changing room. When I got there she didn't say much to me I guess she was just tired from working herself on the pitch. "you did so well today" I said trying to break the silence. "thank you" she said rather cold. The rest of the ride home was quite.
