I FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU - EPISODE 8

White’s Mansion

Two men dressed in black and white tuxedo were standing in front of the mansion’s gate, they are the ones collecting the invitation card and if you don’t have a partner, no entry.

I told Christian to pick me up by 1:30pm since the party is 2pm and the mansion is 30 minutes drive from my house.

Steph called me earlier and I could tell she was already in the party because the place was noisy and she was a bit mad that I was in the party yet.

* * * * * * * *

Amanda and Justin, Charlie and Daphne, Jayden and Venita, White and Steph were already in the mansion. Well Cheyenne wanted to be in the party do she just had to come with that weird dude, Jackson.

Justin’s eyes kept searching around and he kept sighing, Amanda was worried.

“Are you looking for something”, Amanda asked.

“No”, Justin replied but his eyes were still moving round.

“Are you sure”, she asked and Justin nodded. “Then why are you restless”,

It was until then that Justin realized what he was doing so he quickly comported himself and stopped looking around.

When the party was about to start, that was when Christian and Chrysler entered.

All eyes were on Chrysler, the guys were drooling while the girls were jealous that she stole the spotlight.

Justin’s eyes widened when he saw Chrysler, she was looking extremely beautiful than before.

He was lost staring at her, Chrysler also looked around and saw Justin. She gasped when she saw him.

He was on an ash tux, with a white shirt that wasn’t buttoned properly and his hair was scattered giving him that classic look.

They both started at each other like what seemed as eternity.

Amanda watched this with anger so she went in front of Justin and kissed him. Justin frowned when he saw Chrysler leaving and he pushed Amanda away.

“What do you think you’re doing”, Justin snapped angrily and left Amanda.

“Justin come back here. I was just trying to show her you’re mine”, Amanda shouted and everyone started looking at her and murmuring.

“Can you stop making a scene all the time”, Justin said and dragged her away from the party to avoid any more gossips.

“What’s your problem, why do you like embarrassing me all the time”, Justin yelled.

“How did I embarrass you. You were staring at her so I had to make you stop, what wrong did I do huh. I was trying to keep my boyfriend, is that called embarrassment”, Amanda yelled back.

“Who told you I was looking at her”, Justin asked angrily.

“I saw you, you were looking at her with love. You’ve never looked at me that way”, Amanda said amidst tears

“What are you trying to say now”, Justin’s voice softened a bit.

“I want to you to respect me. I want you to always look at me the way you looked at her. I want you to stop looking at other girls”, Amanda said.

“But I always do all of that”, Justin said.

“Then, maybe try harder okay. Please, I love you”, Amanda said softly.

“Okay I will”, Justin said through his teeth.

How the hell does Amanda want him to do all of that. He’s a playboy for crying out loud and his heart is beginning to beat for Chrysler but he does not realize that yet

They held hands and entered the hall, Chrysler saw them laughing and smiling and she looked away sadly.

“Hey, are you okay”, Christian asked.

“Yeah”, Chrysler nodded.

Christian began to crack jokes to lift Chrysler mood. At first she wasn’t finding it funny but now she’s laughing, it’s almost as if she does not have any problems in her life.

Christian watched as Chrysler laughed and he couldn’t help but smile. He didn’t know when he raised his hands and tucked her hair behind her ears.

Justin was watching this and he balled his fists till the extent his veins started popping out and his eyes were turning red so he shut them and looked away.

Cheyenne came towards their direction so Justin had to excuse himself. He went to join the rest of his friends.

“Hey bro, you don’t too good”, Charlie asked.

“It’s nothing. My head is a mess right now. I don’t even know what to do”, Justin sighed in frustration.

“What’s wrong”, White asked

“I don’t know, anytime I see Chrysler with another guy especially when another dude makes her laugh, it pisses me off. And now Amanda is already making a fuss about it. I’m so confused right now”, Justin said.

“I told you dude, we all told you that you’re f**king in love with that girl. You just don’t want to admit it”, White said.

“How do you know, I mean it’s barely three months since she joined the school. How can I fall in love with her”, Justin asked.

“I know it sounds somehow but it was love at first sight. You have always had feelings for her since she entered the school. You were just pretending not to love her but now you can’t pretend anymore. Just let your heart love her and stop hurting yourself dude”, Jayden chipped in.

“I can’t love her. I will just hurt her with my lifestyle”, Justin said sadly.

“Then stop that lifestyle of yours and be serious with her”, Jayden said.

“It’s not as easy as you think”, Justin scoffed.

“You just have to try. Think about it”, Jayden tapped his shoulder and went to meet Venita.

“Daphne should be waiting for me”, Charlie said and left.

“I guess it’s just me and you, Steph is with Chrysler”, White said.

“How does it feel to be with the person that you love”, Justin blurted out.

“Well, it feels surprisingly good. It gives you a sense of belonging and inner peace”, White said thinking about Steph.

Justin sighed.

“I know it’s hard man, but you have to stop hurting yourself. Try talking to her for a start”, White suggested.

“Go talk to her now”, White said and Justin glared at him.

“Okay I’ll help you are that. C’mon let’s go to where they are. It won’t hurt” White assured and they went to meet the girls.

* * * * * * *

“Hey babe, you look so hot today”, Steph teased.

“I know right”, Chrysler smirked.

“Yeah, I hope Christian is keeping you company”, Steph asked.

“Yeah. I never knew he could crack jokes”, Chrysler smiled.

“Well I’m glad you’re happy. Oh look Justin and White are coming”, Steph smiled and Chrysler looked back immediately.

“Hey baby”, White said to Steph and she blushed. Justin rolled his eyes and looked away.

“Oh, hi there Chrysler”, White smiled.

“Hi”, Chrysler returned the smile.

Justin did not say a word, he was just looking at Chrysler. White stepped on his foot and Justin winced in pain.

“Are you alright”, Chrysler asked holding Justin’s hand.

“Uhm yeah.”, Justin replied looking at where Chrysler was holding.

“Oh sorry”, Chrysler removed her hand and looked down.

“No, it’s okay. I’m fine with it”, Justin said and Chrysler smiled.

“Why don’t we all go for a walk”, White suggested.

They all agreed. “This is an opportunity, don’t mess up. Talk to her”, White whispered and Justin nodded.

White whispered something to Steph and she looked at Chrysler and Justin and smiled. They both walked forward leaving Chrysler and Justin at the back.

“I think we should run and catch up with them”, Chrysler said.

“Nah just leave them”, Justin said and she nodded. After that, there was an uncomfortable silence.

“So how are you doing”, Justin broke the silence.

“Fine and you”, She said.

“I’m okay”, Justin said and there was another silence.

“Hmm, by the way, you look amazing tonight”, Justin complimented.

“Thanks, you are not looking bad as well”, she smiled.

“Do you mind having lunch with me tomorrow”, Justin asked.

“What of your girlfriend. She threatened to hurt me anytime she sees me near you”, Chrysler said sadly.

“She has a name and if she does anything to you, don’t hesitate to tell me then”, Justin gritted his teeth. He was trying so much to hide his anger.

“It’s already late, I have to get going. It was nice talking to you”, Chrysler smiled and Justin did what shocked the hell outta Chrysler’s body.

He tucked her hair and pecked her cheeks.

“Let’s go back to the hall”, he said.

“But what about Steph and White”, Chrysler asked.

“Don’t worry about them, they know their way back after all this is White’s mansion”, Justin shrugged.

When they got to the hall Chrysler met Christian waiting impatiently for her.

“Where were you since, I was worried”, Christian said.

“I’m sorry, I was taking a walk with Senior Justin, Senior White and Steph”, Chrysler said and that was when Christian noticed Justin was standing near her.

“Oh I see, can we go now”, Christian said and glared at Justin but Justin didn’t care.

“Bye”, Chrysler smiled at Justin before leaving with Christian.

When they got to the car, Christian was looking angry so Chrysler decided to ask why.

“You don’t look so happy, what is it”, Chrysler.

“Can you please stay away from Senior Justin”, Christian asked out of the blue.

“Why”, Chrysler asked confused.

“Nothing, just stay away from him”, Christian snapped.

“Okay”, Chrysler said even when she knew it was not possible.

“Thanks”, Christian smiled.
