Boundaries of Love

I'm at my apartment I don't want to go to my dorm today. Sitting here at the balcony thinking about what I saw earlier. Maybe for me to know I need to find out. I texted that girl.

"hey"

"oy? What's up?" –Trisha

"where are you?"

"mall" she replied me with a cold one? "tsss"

"with whom?"

"my friend" my friend? When? How come they become friends? Tss, I'm not jealous I'm just curious.

"you're busy?"

"can I call you?"

"hey"

"hey"

"hey" what the she didn't even reply. She really enjoyed her date, I don't want to mind her.

I want to sleep because tomorrow is a good day. I wanted to wait for 12:00 and greet her but maybe I was so exaggerated. "we'll wait for tomorrow"

its 8:30 am and today is Trisha's birthday I will chat her because he don't know that I know her number. But when I fetch my phone I saw a messages from her.

"sorry late reply my phone shut down"

"hey are you still awake?"

"sleep well, good night"

I was right I should not sleep early last night, tsss. I chatted her in her fb

"hi, I want to talk to you, 5:30 pm at the rooftop see you there"

TRISHA POV

He's weird lately, yesterday he texted me where I am and now? He wants to talk to me? Weird. Should I tell him that I am that girl he wants to meet? That girl helps him when he's drunk? But maybe he's not interested.

"Good morning, are you busy? If not meet me at the hall 3:00pm"- Draymond.

What's wrong to them? I mean why everyone wanted to see me? Something fishy. I wandered in the yard, i want to breathe a fresh air, just relax and maybe I need to practice also, my voice is not working well.

"lalalalalalalalalala" practicing my vocals.

"Trisha!!!!" boy shouted as if I'm deaf

"oh, what's up with you Luke?"

"lalalala" I continued practicing.

"here" he gave me a box, but why?

"open it" he's excited, he's weird what's up with them. I did follow he said.

"happy birthday!" when I opened it I saw an earrings it's so nice. I look at Luke when he greeted me.

"how? How did-?" I was shock how does he know that today is my birthday? I didn't tell anyone about it.

"tada! Surprise, we're classmates and haven't you see the post of our school? They greeted you" well, I don't know about it coz I haven't like and follow the page of our school my bad HAHAH.

"Thank you Luke" I hugged him he's really a nice guy that every girl wanted.

I went to my dorm and try the gift that Luke gave. "Perfect" I said. I was wondering if Drake and Draymond know already that's why they wanted to see me. Or I should stop over thinking about it?

It's already 3:00 and I need to see Draymond now at the hall? Why?

When I got there it's too dark, how come that this school is lack of maintenance.

I slowly open the door and I saw a lights surrounding. "Wow"

"happy birthday" Draymond comes out and hold a cake.

"luh?" I mean I'm speechless.

"blow it and wish" I close my eyes and wish and then blow. I was speechless at the moment. He even prepared a foods and a projector?

"what's that?" curious asking.

"I know you love watching movies so I prepared it just for you, but first let's eat" he accompany me to sit and we're facing together it's so awkward.

"thank you Dray" he just smiled and pour a wine in my glass.

"cheers?"

"cheers!" after we eat, we also sit at the floor with ofcourse blanket and a emoji pillow.

"how did you do these?" I look at him as if we're couple HAHAH

"I ask the Admin first then he approved just 1 day" we both silent while watching the movie and he give me a box when I open it, it was necklace, it's shinning

"happy birthday"

"that's too much"

"you're special to me" he said I did not talk back coz I'm speechless earlier I received a earrings and now? A bracelet? What next? Kidding too ambitious Trish.

We both enjoyed the movie, we finish it and it has a happy ending that was Business Proposal.

"wait? What time is it?" I ask him coz my phone is out of battery.

"6:40, why?"

"ohh I need to go, I have something to do, and thank you for these Dray" I ran to the door and go to the rooftop. I waited him for so long is he still at the roof top? My heart beat faster, imagined I ran from hall to here? When I climb the stairs I didn't notice that there is a rock and then I stamp it the reason I fell. "arghh" I stand up quickly and continue to climb. When I intended to open the door, I was late coz someone open it and.

"Drake?" I saw his face, did I make him upset?

"sorry?" he gave me a fake smile and put his attention to my feet coz I feel something pain.

"what the heck? What happened to your knee?" he grabbed my hand and let me in at the rooftop he accompany me also to sit. Seeing him worried about me, I feel he cared me so much? HAHAH lol, too much Trish. He heals my wounds with his towel and ties it to my knee.

"thank you" he stood up and about to go. "wait" he stop walking and I come to him.

"sorry for waiting" he turned around and face me. After a while he hugged me tightly I can't move but still I didn't refuse his hug.

"what took you so long?" he said and look at me, I swear I don't know what to say, I feel speechless every time I saw him. Why it is my heart beat faster? I touch my heart and still look at him eye to eye. And then suddenly I hug him back. I don't know why I did such thing but I want to hug him.

I separate and face him "sorry for waiting"

"it's okay as long as you're here" I genuinely smiled at him. He accompanies me to sit and greeted me. "Happy birthday, I have something for you" he show me his gift then smiled

"wait?, wow, I was just staring at this yesterday with Luke but thank you" I hugged him.

"you like it?"

"of course I like it." I enjoyed chatting with him, I feel comfortable when his with me. And then he reminisce those the first time we see each other at the men's room that was the most embarrassing moment I did in my life.

"anyways, do you have power bank?" it's so embarrassing but I want to take picture with him, for remembrance.

"wait" "here"

I know that we will have a hard time here chatting, and also I want to end this day with a smile, ever since my parents died I didn't celebrate my birthday, what for? Celebrating myself?.

DRAKE POV

He borrowed my power bank, then also I want her to know that I know already who's she, she's that girl I'm talking and is she know already? Well let's find out. I saw that her phone is already on and I plan to make a call for her to know.

(calling my angel…) then I look at her phone ringing..

"MR. Jerk?" I said then she looks at me, with her big eyes. She just gave me a fake smile.

"so you already know?" he play tricks on me for so long?

"yes hehehe, sorry and this (she point out her phone to me) I can explain"

"how unfair, just look your nickname in my phone"

"my angel? Char so I'm your angel huh" she wink.

"tss" I pretend to be upset

"so you're upset now?" she didn't even know how to be sweet? How this girl born.

"okay, I'll change it, what you want" I grab her phone and I'll change the nickname

"here" when she look at it. "Mr. Cute Guy! The heck of you Drake"

she was planning to delete it so I tried to fetch her phone but she suddenly stoop up and out of balance.

We accidentally kiss for the second time, our lips touch again, she just looks at me I know she's shock but suddenly she closed her eyes and didn't move. Me as a boy I can't control myself I kissed her and she kiss me back. I was thinking not to end this moment but she suddenly pushes me and stands up.

"Sorry, I need to go. Thank you for this gift" she ran quickly and close the door. I left alone and can't get out what we did now. Then I smiled.

TRISHA POV

"WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING TRISH?" I head back in my dorm and lie in the bed. Reminiscing those moment of me and Drake kissing. I'm not angry coz I love it. I know it's too much but I learned to like him. He's different, I mean I don't know but every time I saw him I feel excited.

"Happy birthday again!" Drake texted me. "mwehehehhe" I feel thrilled I don't know what this feeling I feel.

"Good morning, don't forget to eat your breakfast see you around" I was rolling in my bed, it's really refreshing. I wear the dress which Drake gave me last night, I was so gorgeous wearing this it is really fit to me, how did he knows my size? Never mind well I'm excited to see him now. But I was thinking that was my second kiss and we didn't had a label? How can that be? Maybe he would ask me today? Is he will go to court me? Is it possible? Or I was just dreaming?

"Lol Trisha, fix yourself and much better go ask himself"

"Good morning" someone just appeared behind me whispering to my ears. I just smile to him and greeted him back.

"You look gorgeous when you wear it" that was a thrilled moment of mine.

We walk together and goes to our class session.

he was able to hold my hands but Luke middle us. "Good morning President, and good morning Trish did you wear it?" he look at my ears and see if I did wear his birthday gift but yes I did wear it, it was really nice earrings and it fit with my dress.

"is your necklace new?" Luke ask.

"Ah this? Draymond gave this to me is it nice?" he nodded. He didn't even notice my dress.

"Her dress bro, is it nice? Maybe it's also a gift someone gave to her" Drake said. Luke is no interested at all, then he go enter the hall first.

"Tssss" he said. I look at him and smirk then leave him at the door.

"Class, we already practice so much and as we discuss we're all have a performance next week and as I noticed to all of you had a talents but, if you would agree I already made up my mind of who would be the leading lady, as I witnessed her performances I am sure that she was fit for this role, Ms. Mendoza" whatttt? I was shock, Prof compliment me to rare. I mean why me?

"would you mind Ms. Mendoza" I have second thought, I mean everything still not sink in me, what if I fail? What if I will ruin the performance?

"yes sir!" yes, I need to show my talents, I'm a scholar of this university I shouldn't miss that chance. Prof called me in front of my classmates.

"So for the male lead, I can't choose between these three talented man sitting" he mean, Luke, Drake, and Draymond. Indeed they're really good in acting it's hard to choose but if will be the one to choose I would choose Drake, kidding for fair competition Prof decided to have an audition and the three of them should participate. But if they don't like to be participate it's still okay it's their choice.

"Prof, I'm scared I can't, sorry Prof but I need to give way, this two was a veteran and I can't win with them" Luke decided not to join, I'll agree with them Drake and Draymond is really good in it.

Me and Luke planned to walk together talking about the audition and what would be the drama we would perform.

"excited?" Luke ask

"not really, I didn't even know what the drama to act I'm so nervous" we chose to sit and continue to talk. It's a lot of pressure for you to join this big drama. Suddenly we talk different topic about the sport fest. Luke and I are teammates and we're so excited what would be the games we're in.

TIME FOR THE AUDITION

Prof said that only the two boys will enter the hall Prof was so mysterious; he said he wants to surprise us I said to myself for what? There's no need to be mysterious.

"okay you may now come in class" the door opened and we all gathered inside the hall to hear the announcement of Prof.

"So it was a hard decision ever, that's why to be fair I invited some of the teacher here at the university to help me choose between these two handsome and good actor. But at the end only one should be the male and that would be…" I feel nervous at the same time excited, both of them are suitable for this role, but who knows who'll win.

"Mr… Drake Anderson" and everyone's clap.

"Ms. Mendoza please join us here" and everyone claps. Prof let me and Drake stay for a while for the announcement of the drama. The three of us left.

"so are you familiar of the drama entitled Barcelona a love untold" I don't know this movie that's why Prof gave us some copy of the movie for us to review it for our references.

"Let's watch it together" I suddenly look at Drake and smiled. We head back to the computer lab to watch that movie and while watching we're amuse because of the movie I mean the movie was so good and the line there was so emotional.

DAY 1 OF PRACTICE

we're excuse in our next class because we need to take the first scene, this movie will be uploaded in our YT Channel and if ever it will succeed there's a possibility that our movie will enter in the contest.

DAY 2

DAY 3

DAY 4

It's been days since we take shoots about our scenes and still we have a scene to take but the director said it's okay to rest I mean we're taking advance and also we need to prepare about our Sport Fest next week.

Teams are all gathered and me as a pink team we are gathered in room 121, I was hoping that Drake is also a part of our team but I was wrong only Luke and Draymond I know here.

"Guys suggest some design of our shirt" Draymond said, anyways Draymond is our team leader and I was the Assistant it should be Luke but he said he can't handle this kind of things and still he want to have a good time chatting with his girlfriend, yes Luke already has a girlfriend and he owe me so much because his girlfriend like the gift that Luke gave to her. He also said that that girl has already had a feeling for Luke before but Luke is so coward and he can't confess at that moment. HAHHA such a weak man.

Well speaking of coward I didn't see Drake yet, where is he? That's why without any hesitant I ask Draymond.

"He's absent, he said something very important but I don't know what is it" important? What it is?

FIRST DAY of our sport fest

"Trish? How was the shirt?" Draymond

"this? Nice, I like it"

"how about your down? Are you comfortable? You can change it into pants" I was wearing a short, very tiny short because our first game was volleyball and yes of course I am so efficient playing with it.

"it's okay Dray" we all head back in the gymnasium and each team gathered. My eyes wandering around the court to see where Drake is but I can't see him.

"Trish? We are all count on you" Luke said, I didn't pressured but I need to enjoy, win or else it's okay as long as we did our best.

first six was me, Luke, Draymond and other 3 members, I was the one who will served. Btw our opponent was Yellow team, then the ball is in but they didn't hit it that's why our team got the first score.

2nd round and we are leading 1 win sure win.

14 and 13 and we are about to win so our leader ask for the time out. But when we are gathering, I saw Drake coming to the gym next to him is a girl, he keep on accompanying him. "why is she?" I ask myself.

"trish?" I didn't notice that Draymond called me for the 3rd times, and then the game started. Luke sitting in their teammates they are Blue team, and beside him is that girl. Only 1 win surely we are about win and continue for the final round tomorrow. "tss, not even pretty" I put my attention to our games and the ball was I think go in me so I spike it and then….

"we win!" Draymond hugged me, and suddenly our teams come and enjoy our victory.

DRAKE POV

I wasn't be able to attend class for 2 days because my parents want me to go to airport to wait for the arrival of Jasmine, my ex-girlfriend actually not ex because we didn't even break up. And now she's comeback to study here at ACU and my parent know her, that is why I need to help her come up with the new environment

Now we are going to ACU to attend the fest and as a leader of Blue team I need to be present and guide my teammates.

Seeing Trisha playing volleyball is a nice view, she played well and suddenly she spikes the last ball the reason for them to win. I saw them hugging Trisha and Draymond, I was about to go with them and congratulate them but Jasmine wants me to accompany her to her dorm, and help her in her schedules.

Jasmine dorm is same with Trisha, I didn't let Trisha know about it because she's still at the gymnasium. Entering trisha's room is so mess, she's a girl but her things are not tidy cleaned.

"what is this place? Is this even a place?" Jasmine really hate messy rooms, that is why I learned to her, when we are together we keep on arguing about it, so I learned how to keep my things cleaned.

"Jas, if you don't want to stay here I can book you a hotel for you to stay"

"no, I'm okay here where's my room?" she entered to a room next to Trisha's bedroom.

I let Jasmine clean her things to her bed, and head back to our team room for the discussion.

"how was your play so far?"

"we win, and tomorrow we are going to fight with Pink team for the championship"

"Pink team?"

"yes, lead by Draymond" so our opponent is Pink team, tomorrow is a battle and I need to prepare for it.

TRISHA POV

We need to rest early and relax our body for tomorrow's championship, but before that we need to eat first at the canteen with our teammates.

While eating, I suddenly saw Drake with that girl.

"Do you know who's that girl?" I ask Draymond.

"Is Jasmine already come back? (I heard Draymond whispering), sorry, she's Jasmine, Drake ex-girlfriend (he whispered to me) but I guess not ex? They didn't separated" I just look at Draymond face and put my attention to my foods. "Girlfriend? Tsss they're not fit for each other" I murmured. Drake already has a girlfriend, but he didn't even tell me about it.

I head back in my dorm and when I open the door, my room was organized, who the hell did this? Until someone comes out to the bedroom beside mine.

"you must be the girl leaving her? Your things are so messy and I don't like messy one so I cleaned it hope you don't mind" I gave her a fake smile. How come she's my dorm mate.

"he he he, sorry for that " I go to my bedroom and lie.

THE CHAMPIONSHIP

"hey!" I was about to come out but that Jasmine called me.

"oh? What?"

"do you know where's the cr? I don't know eh, can you please put this back to the cr for me?"

tss she don't know where the cr? But how can she tss never mind. Because I'm obedient I obey her.

"Jasmine is back, Drake was really happy, I saw them last night kissing in the entrance of the dorm, gosh" I heard them gossiping. "they kissed?" I want to punch that girl really.

while going to the gymnasium I saw Drake standing in front of me. I continue to walk and go near to him.

"Hey" he said. Just a simple hey? I need explanation Drakeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

"uy" I replied, it so awkward. I don't know what to say.

"umm, can we talk?"

"we already talking" I replied him with an attitude, I'm not jealous anyways, I need to distance myself to him for God sake.

"I mean later, I want to talk to you about something, meet me at the rooftop later at 7pm I have something to say to you." Wow demanding why don't you tell me now? Is that really important?. I saw Jasmine coming. "okay" I shortly replied Drake and go inside the gymnasium.

"what talk you so long?" Draymond ask.

"sorry, I was at the cr"

"okay now our plan>>"

today we need to win. The game started and our opponent is the team of Drake. Every time the game is time out, Jasmine gave Drake some water, and wipe his sweat how sweet,

GAME 3 and we are tie, only this round would decide who will win.

The game is still tie, and the committee decided to continue the games tomorrow for do or die round.

How come the game is tie? Such a nice game. I went to the shower room to change and take a shower, but Jasmine comes beside me while I'm drying my hair.

"Trisha right?" I stopped what I'm doing and look at her at the mirror.

"yes"

"okay, I heard a lot about you and you know already about me right?" she faced me and say "I am the girlfriend of Drake Anderson, so keep yourself distance to him." I put the dryer in the sink and told her "Heh, other said that you are no longer with him, but if you're scared enough that I will seduce your Boyfriend, be ready" I wink her and leave the shower room.

"what the hell are you saying Trisha?" I ask myself and waiting for my persona to talk to. What the hell I am doing.

I remembered what Drake told me earlier, but what if Jasmine found out that I'll go to him while leave this dorm. I check Jasmine bedroom, it was close I bet she's sleeping.

I climb the stairs quietly but not too far from the door where the roof top located I heard voices. Maybe there's someone at the roof top.

"Drake you still remembered this location, I remembered before when I am upset you bring me here to ease the pain, sadness" I walk slowly and peek at the door, the door is not close it has a small open. I saw Jasmine and Drake talking and then suddenly I saw them both kissing with my both two eyes. I was able to enter the door but for what? Is that what Drake wanted to say? Is this a trap? I choose to leave but when I turn around my head hit with the metal behind me, it's so hurt, and I guess that's loud and I thought they heard it so I ran downstairs and head back at my dorm.

At my bed, I can still feel the pain, I go to the kitchen and fetch an ice to put in my head and go back to my bed. I fetch a mirror and look at my fore head. "gosh, why is it gray" I grab my medicine kit and look for the band aid.
