Capítulo 48: Life Doesn't End In High School

" DOES ANYONE IN THIS SCHOOL HAVE WILLS JAMES NUMBER? I FUCKING NEED HIS NUMBER", Lily Rose screamed her lungs out as she announced down the hallway, she wasn't willing to give up, she had to get Wills's number, how could any guy not be interested in her?

She was the current captain of the cheer leading sqaud, vice president of the drama club and role models of the sophomores and fresh men's girls but somehow Wills was the only one who wanted to stay away from her, it made her want him all the more. She was sure Holden didn't care if she existed or not but Wills, Wills knew she existed, I mean she talked to the guy, even asked him for his number directly but ever since then, he's been avoiding her

Wills literally hides from her and when he does, she's never able to find him even after school. Tired of walking and feeling like she was coming off with a sore throat, she walked up to Mabel and plumped on the locker next to Mabel's locker.

Breathing heavily, she voiced, " I need water ... you got some?", she asked and Mabel handed her one bottled water from her locker and Lily Rose quickly unscrewed the cap and downed everything in one go.

" You know with this new attitude, you are sure going to land yourself in detention and might scare Wills away. What are you even going to do with his number once you get it?", Mabel asked for Lily Rose to sigh tiredly. " You don't get it Little Cee, once I get his number it would be some kind of achievement and for goodness sake, I just wanna hear him speak, I wanna hear that deep male voice as it whispers my name okay, I know am going too far but seriously the guy drives me crazy", Lily Rose said wiping an invisible sweat off her forehead.

" If you want a guy to notice you, all you gotta do is not draw too much attention to yourself, play it cool and act like you don't care, not screaming in the hallways at literally everyone you pass by", Mabel stated in a matter of fact tone that had Lily Rose staring at her skeptically. " And how do you know that's what I'm supposed to do? You literally don't even have a boyfriend or a crush, no offence dude", Lily Rose said for Mabel to shake her head at Lily Rose childish assumptions.

"My mom always tells me about her life as a teenager and how she had so many guys lining up to date her, she just ignored them but there was one who didn't care if she existed or not", Mabel said for Lily Rose to jump in conclusions tiredly, " And it turned out to be your Dad and they got married and had a wonderful kid, YOU", Lily said to have Mabel glare at her fiercely.

"Nope not my dad, just one of my mom's many exes, what I am saying is, no matter how many, hot or not, grumpy or kind, mysterious or easy to read, life doesn't end in highschool, you'll go out one day and might find someone you love more than you ever loved Wills so stop all this drama, its pretty annoying, and give your mind the peace it yearns for", she said to have Lily Rose stare at her like a doll.

" I get what you are saying, you want me to play it cool, act like the calm bad girl in front of Wills and he'll come to like me in time, Gosh little Cee you are the best", Lily Rose said cheerfully, leaving Mabel wide eyed as she hugged her and ran away.

" So much for a dumb advice", Mabel said sarcastically as she watched Lily Rose disappear. " Actually your advice did work on someone", a male voice sounded behind her and Mabel smiled quickly recognizing the voice as she turned around to stare at him. " Aaron", she called out as she rushed towards him and hugged him in an affectionate manner.

Holden who was approaching her with a smile on his face, quickly turned cold as ice as he saw her rush to some unknown guy and hug him intimately. He was so much resisting the urge to forcefully tear her apart from that guy.
