Chapter 9 Christian Evergreen

• We walked side by side quietly, I glanced at him and he didn't look like the rude, mannerless boy. He looked calm and peaceful. He looked really handsome like that. He caught my eye and I quickly looked elsewhere. smile and I ignored him and pretended nothing happened. "what were you doing by the window in the toilet?? Why weren't you at the party?" I was trying to start up a conversation. He looked at me and laughed " well, i was working on something... I'm not really much of a party type of person". Then he showed me the laptop he was carrying. I guess I didn't notice it on time because I was trying to get answers from him previously. "But I have to live up to my name, don't I??" He concluded and I looked at him "why do you live for others?? Why not live for yourself?? It's not like they are worth it..." I concluded. He said nothing and looked like he was in thoughts. We walked silently once again.
• "My name is Christian, Christian Ever-green" he said all of a sudden extending his hand. I looked at him with an eyebrow raised but then he said, "I figured we haven't been properly introduced". I took his hand then replied "Meredith, Meredith Campbell. So why go to a place you ain't comfortable at??" I was trying to make a conversation again. But, he kept avoiding my questions, "well, what about you?? Why were you there?". "I'm not gonna reply until you answer me first cause I asked first". He chuckled then said "you're not only pretty but cute" I glare at him and he gave a little smile before he continued "I already answered you but it seemed like the dumbest excuse to give when I thought about it. Remember I told that I have to live up to my name" he said."Oh, living up to your name..." I repeated while looking away. "Now it's your turn, why were you there??" He asked. "Well, I was asked to tag along", I replied. "And you did?" he asked with an eyebrow raised . "It's a long story and she begged me. I didn't have a much of a choice", i said. "She?" he asked. 'God his sexy deep voice' I thought as I swallowed hard. "My roommate" I said. He seemed to understand and said nothing. There was silence once again as we walked back to the hostel. would leave for others and hide his true self. He seemed to enjoy the silence and he even smiled.why were you there?" He asked.

• We finally got to the hostel. "So, we are here". He said. "Yeah". "So umm..., can I get your number and pay you a visit sometime?" He asked while scratching the back of his head. He looked really shy. I giggled at the so called bad boy and replied "sure". He gave me his phone excitedly and I entered my number in it. He seemed really happy. "What's your room number?" he asked "I won't be telling you that". "Why??" He asked "cause there's no way you'd get past the guard. If you get caught, you'd be in trouble". "So you care about me?? And you don't trust my abilities??" He teased. "No I don't care about you! You know what, fuck you" I said and he gave a hearty laugh. His laughter was sweet to the ears .He seemed free and happy. He didn't look like the jerk he was at school. I pouted and then walked towards the hostel secretly smiling to myself "thanks for tonight..." I shouted. "you are welcome" I heard him reply.
