Chapter 1 Denial

I'm a Filipina girl,My name is Aldeana Yaki Dela Cruz, 18 female,grade 11 I get grades above 95% at the very least, I'm popular for being the so called "Lesbian" Because I'm on a scholarship for being an athlete I do sports like foot ball voleyball basketball ect. and I have some queer friends too and I love them sm but that doesn't mean I like girls! truthfully I actually like someone

Well let me explain more... properly, I have a crush on my boy best friend Aether Mark Fernandez I mean we've known each other since we were 5! Why wouldn't we be perfect for one another? Well that's what I thought until last night Friday 5:30 pm we were going out with his family like usual Friday evening when he brought a girl our age and his parents introduced her as his... GIRLFRIEND?

she looked like she could be Korean!She had pretty black hair and cute dark brown eyes she had that dream body all girls die to get and she's just so...Girly! this type of girl was not His type! he likes people who gets him! people who'd play games with him!People like me!

I was so shocked when she gave him a kiss on the cheek and looking back I was so... IMMATURE! I was so grumpy all night and damn I don't wanna admit it but I'm jealous!

it was later until my boy best friend told me he was forced to date the girl because she's his mom's friend's daughter or something he said he didn't like her but still he could at least say something about this to his parents!

what if he gets stuck with that Witch for life! I know girls like that! they are the ones who are pretty but really mean! it should be me who he's dating!! but who cares about her it's not like she'll be able to talk to him all the time I mean I don't even think she goes to the same school as us!!

that's what I thought...until...

**Monday morning in XXXX high school**

"Hello I'm Akira Mindora Reyes pleased to meed to Po I hope we can be good friends"

(the words Opo and Po is a sign of respect in the Philippines)

"THATS HER!! HE'S GIRLFRIEND! did she transfer here just to be with him?" I was thinking that until break time when I could finally talk to Aether

"Yo bro did your girlfriend transfer here just to see you" I said acting as normal as I could

"You see she's from abroad although she grew up at Korea she still knows how to speak English and Tagalog she just came back from Korea she's now trying to learn more about her mom's religion AKA she's studying things the Filipino way" he said like he like it didn't bother him that he was forced into a relationship with the same girl

"Supp mga paree(what's up dude) How's lunch goin'? gimme that mark"

**he tries to eat mark's/aether's food**

**aether kicks his feet**

this guy is Esikiel Andres he's a clingy weirdo especially towards aether he is thick skined as f*ck he's like 6'4 and could beat anyone's *** but he's kind...to some people he's one of the people we met at 1st grade but now at high school we don't go at the same class but of course we're still great friends

"Get your own food Kiel quit bothering your boyfriend~"

"Aye aye can't tease him and aeae for being in a relationship anymore now that mark's got a girlfriend"

That's Cassandra Peterson and Alexandria Dragon they're dating and are basically two pieces in a pot they're the cutest couple

Cass is more of a nerd and softie she's 5'8 tho and looks really pretty

Alex tho is 6 foot and me and her is kinda similar we both like sports and are going to school as athletes but unlike me she gets the worst grades and I'm pretty sure Cass always helps her with homework

"ooh Marites is that you girly? where's my little nerd?" Alex said sarcastically

(marites is what people in the Philippines call other people when they know a lot of gossip)

"She's right here don't worry" Cass said sounding very serious

"Cass you need to know how to take a joke" Alex said while laughing her *** off seriously these guys are so cute

"Anyways~ since when did you meet your girlfriend dude why didn't you tell us?" Alex asked Aether kinda sounding like she's pouting

Aether just explained to both Alex and Kiel how he fell for her like love at first sight so did she and how pretty she was and all the sparks bullshit

"hey are you still not considering your bi or lesbian Ali?" Cass asked me

why does she always ask me that even though she knows I like mark!

"Still no Cass, why do you ask?"I said partially cause I didn't want our conversation to end mostly cuz I seriously am curious why she thinks I would be gay

" I mean mark has a girlfriend I have a girlfriend which is Alex and you know Kiel he's probably gonna be a dad Soon and you don't seem to be interested in any boys so I thought you'd be like us because you know I started off like you and you definitely give off lesbian/bi energy you know what I mean" she said with seriousness in every word

"he—heyy! even tho I'm like this it doesn't mean I don't like anyone!!and why does it seem like you put so much thought into this?how long were you thinking about this subject you like almost wrote a whole essay about me!!" I responded flusteredly

"first phase..denial" she said looking at me like I'm some sort of experiment or something

"think what you want I'm not like that!!" I said

"Okay okay" she said quietly

All of them asks me that,even aether who's been my friend since we were kids do they really not know I like him..? I
