Chapter 2 - FIRST TIME CRUSH

Axel….Okay, but why would you say that to a stranger?

Zara….Come on, your here because you wanna know me better, right? I will come clean, i find you hot and am crushing real hard right now that your even sitting in front of me.

Axel….Aheem!

Axel was an amteur in all this love and crush thing, he was only good at teasing his sister and mocking her designs.Wasted Zara was fearless and had no shame, she pulled Axel by the neck and kissed him, he was suprised and swallowed hard.

It was his first kiss, his friends were still watching, they cheered for him and started recording him and taking pictures of him getting taken advantage of.

Zara stopped and looked in his eyes, he was already lost at everything, because this is his first kiss from this bold stranger whom he also happened to find hot.

But Zara was just getting started, she went on kissed his face all over and then sniffed his neck.

Zara….Wow! Tell me, how many girl's hearts have you broken? How could someone like this exist? Wanna go get a room, i might not see you again.

Axel….Hey, slow down, we are not going anywhere, okay? But, you can give me your number, maybe?

Zara….Ugh! Alrighty, here, write yours too, i wanna keep in touch for real.

They talked but Zara kept being off topic as she was tipsy, but actually Axel found her funny and kinda liked her.He went back home blushing and smiling crazily straight to his room.

Elle entered without knocking and found him blushing and talking to himself.

Elle….Hey you crazy idiot? Where did you put my watch?

Axel….You always come in to ruin my good time, its in my drawer.

Elle….Whats with you today? You even didnt eat dinner? That's suspicious, did you find a girl at that new resort?

Axel….Whatttt??? Get out of my room now that you've got your watch.

Elle….Good! Am going to tell mum and even add some juice.

Axel….What? Please dont, i dont want her to know yet.

Elle….So its true, huh?

Axel….Its…not! You know what? Get out, go and tell her whatever cause i will deny everything.

She left but she was curious though she didnt give it much thought and left it to that.In the morning, Axel was woken up by his ringing phone, he answered it with his eyes closed as he was still sleepy.

Axel….Hello!

Zara….Hi, um, sorry to bother you in your sleep, but am calling to apologise for yesterday.

Axel….Wrong number, bye….

Zara….Wait, we kinda made out…dont you remember?

Axel….Huh?

His memory came back and he jumped out of bed, he didnt expect the girl to really call him, he was happy to hear from her again, he cleared his throat.

Axel….Oh, i remember now, thought you will forget as you claimed..

Zara….Well, um, i do remember so am deeply sorry for kissing you yet you didn't mind.Does this mean your single?

Axel….Why?

Zara….Asking for a friend obviously.

Axel….Hahaha…Wanna meet up later and talk clearly?

Zara….Please dont, am so embarrassed to face you for what i did, no.

Axel….But i dont mind.

Zara….I wish, but am leaving the country today so it will be hard to meet up later.

Axel….Oh, your not from here?

Zara….Am not, but i would like to know you better if you dont…mind?

Axel….I dont mind at all, it doesnt hurt to make some friends, right?

Zara….Right! Can we like keep texting atleast? I like it better.

Axel…Alrighty.

She ended the call and Axel smiled sweetly placing his phone on his chest while blushing with his already turned-red cheeks.

Axel….Yes! Am finally gonna get myself a girlfriend, she is cute and she is so bold, my very type.This is gonna be fun.

And from then, Axel and Zara texted all the time talking about all kind of things, and sometimes they texted each other flirty lines, they were both crushing on each other so hard.

Axel spent more time now on his phone, he now liked Zara so did she.He sent her his pics and she showed them to her friends that she is now dating a hot guy, obviously, they envied her.She also sent him her pics, they were good.

Zara….How was your day?

Axel….Its great so far, talking to you makes it better.

Zara….Me too, i still remember that day when i saw you surfing, are you prince or something?

Axel….Hahaha…you tell me.

Zara….Ofcourse you are my prince charming.Honestly, i miss you.

Axel….Me too, i just wanna see you again.

Zara….Hm?

Axel….Well maybe, we can kiss properly when your not tipsy? Or maybe hold hands, something like that?

Zara….Its like your reading my mind cause trust me, thats what i fantasize about to get some sleep.I just, need you here with me right now.

Axel….I feel the same way too, i really like you Zara.

Zara….I dont like you….am into you way too deep, i just love you for real.Who wouldve thought that i will be into this long distance relationship thing, let alone online dating.

Bold Zara couldn't let any word untold, she was sincere with her feelings for him, so was he, making their texting last longer hours that sometimes they didnt even sleep at night.Elle knocked on his door and went inside.

Elle….Axel, mum needs to talk to us about something, now.

Axel….Alright, am coming.

Elle….I've noticed something these part weeks, your always texting, why? Do you have a girlfriend Axel? So i was right.

Axel….Go away and mind your business, busybody.

Elle….Hide it well but you know once i get my hands on your phone, i will see everything.

Axel….Jokes on you, i changed the password.

Elle….Really now? You know i always figure it out.

Axel….Well, its her name and you dont know her, so, yeah.

Elle….Oh? How sweet of you brother, it doesnt matter, am bound to find out.Come.on, lets go to mum.

They went to see what she wanted to tell them, Lyn was also there but she was watching tv and it didnt concern her.They sat with their mum, Selli.

Selli….Guys, i got a job at a resort, that new one near the beach where Axel you go to surf.

Axel….What? Thats good news mum, am so happy for you.

Elle….Now we can save more, we work during the holidays and now mum you have a job, am so happy for you.

Selli….And they made me the manager.

Axel….They didnt….OMG MUM?!

As they were still talking, Lyn pulled out her phone from her pocket and sneakingly started taking photos of Axel, just like all other girls who crushed on him, she was like that too, this whole time Lyn was crushing on Axel even though they barely talked.

They were happy for their mum, but Lyn was busy filling her phone with Axel's photos she was taking.After, they went to their rooms, Selli told yolanda about her new job when she came back, but she didnt care.

In the middle of the night, when everyone was sleeping, Axel was texting Zara, Lyn was in her room staring at his photos she took.Axel headed to the kitchen for some water, he was shirtless with his phone in hand, smiling about the texts.

Lyn coincidentally also went for some water, as she was walking down the stairs, she saw him in the kitchen and gasped licking her lips on seeing him shirtless.

She cleared her throat and approached him in her hoodie, but he didnt mind her as he was focused on his phone, he moved away leaning on the counter, drinking water while typing.

Lyn…Aheem! So am not the only one who craves cold water in the middle of the night?

He didnt answer her, infact, he didnt hear her at all.

Lyn….Hello? Axel???

Axel….Huh? Are you talking to me?

Lyn….Iam.

Axel….Sorry, i wasn't listening, so, what were you saying?

Lyn….Are you texting your girlfriend?

Axel….Yeah, why?

Lyn….Oh? I didnt know that you had one already.

Axel….I do have, anyway, goodnight Lyn, am off to bed so should you.

Lyn….Sure, good night.

He went to his room and video called Zara, they talked more but Lyn was broken, she had her eyes on Axel since childhood but now he has a girlfriend? She went in her room and started crying.

Lyn….Am i not attractive to him at all? I mean….I've had these feelings for him for the longest time, but now he suddenly has a girlfriend? Who is that bitch, it really hurts.I cant stay still, if i do nothing, he wont understand that i like him.
