Chapter 1 Sugar

The bell echoed through the empty hallway of our 'not so fancy collage' and soon , the hallway stormed with students.

"Steph, are you gonna come with me or you have different plans ?" She gave me a mocking smirk , even if i wasn't looking at her , i knew she was directing the 'other plans' sentence while looking at Liam....I really want to kill her . Yes , she is that one annoying friend of mine , but i can't actually survive without her mocking.

"Stop grinning, rosie . Unless you want to have a nice fight with me" i rolled my eyes and i heard a laugh.. i am sure she wants to have a fight today .

"Come on babe , stop being so moody" She nudged me with her elbow "lets go outside and have a talk , I know something ain't right with you today" She gave me a look of concern which was quickly replaced with her usual smile.

I too smiled , trying to bury this topic right here as i didn't wanted to flood the classroom with my tears. I am sure if I bring out the topic of my sadness , I won't be able to control my urge to fucking cry out till i ran out of tears.

"Steph , don't even think of dismissing the topic" She sat besides me again , the classroom was already empty as everyone rushed out.

I sighed "Rosie.. i" Taking a deep breath , i tried to hold back the tears "Can we talk about it later ? At my apartment ." I gave her a puppy eyed look , and i knew it worked as she was looking pissed. She always gets annoyed whenever i pled her by using my puppy eyed look , she really can't say no now . This was me who smirked this time when she got up and gestured me to get the fuck up.

"By the way , what is going on between you and Aiden ?" I asked while eyeing her as she unwrapped the packaged chocolate cake--the one i bought for myself-- and she suddenly stopped her actions to look at me with a shit eating grin on her face.

"He is coming over tonight" She said while flicking the wrapper in the dustbin and shamelessly gobbling the cake in one bite.

I wanted to punch her in the gut so badly that she won't be able to eat the food , especially the ones she steals from me. My foot 'accidentally' landed on her knee and i laughed while she made a nice 'ouch' sound..i am relieved now.

We were in a small convenience store, it was our daily routine now to come over here and pass our time by arguing over trivial matters and laughing our asses out while having cheap packaged food -- the only ones we can afford.

"Steph" she winced , even if the pain wasn't lingering there anymore.

"Stop acting Rosie , i ain't buying it" i tossed a wrapper of chocolate on the table , it was our favourite chocolate and as it was very expensive , we always share it.

She quickly got up and hanged her bag on one of her shoulders , looking like a hot baddie as always.

"Are you going to stay there , Steph ?" I quickly got up , trying to push aside the thoughts of simping over my goddamn bestfriend.
