rules and reguolations

Amelia's Pov

"Its already 5:15 pm. I don't think he's coming anymore." Belle ranted as she continously walked back and forth with her hands held behind her back. I really did not understand why she had to worry too much. It's Federico, the most popular guy in school, it's not that shocking that he would miss coming to this program.

She continued, "Oh gosh, is this how a love story ends before it starts?"

HUH!

"What are you talking about?" I asked her.

She stopped walking around and faced me, "You guys love story, duhhhhh!" she said as if it was obvious.

How could I explain this to Belle?

"Belle, I told you for the umpteenth time, there is no love story in any kind of way. This is just a program that makes two different people know each other and get to influence each other."

"Well, yeah, now it can't be a love story because he's not here." she said, still insisting on the 'love' part."You shouldn't have ran away when you saw him. I told you that there was no reason to be scared of the GGGs." she explained solemnly but trying to make a point.

And then that thought came to my head again. What if my actions at school made him angry and not come. Of course he had a reason for joining the program but because I ran away like a coward, it may be the reason he's not coming. I hope I

"I would apologize if he came but --" I started but was interrupted by a knock from the front door.

I looked back to Belle who looked at me, "He's here!" she squealed in sheer excitement. "I'll go open the door." she said as she approached the door. Before she opened it she turned to face me and gave me a look over. "You look good." she said with a smile.

Belle could be dramatic sometimes. I just wore a blue and white patterned Henley t-shirt with some some light blue jeans, nothing too serious. This was how I always dressed like, simple and comfortable.

She opened the door to reveal Fedirico. He wore a black v-neck that had a way of showing of his muscles, denim jeans and a pair of black Nike Tanjun shoes. Generally the whole outfit made him look -- good.

I could tell Belle was in a trance when she said nothing but stared at him. I coughed a bit so she could snap out of it, and luckily it worked.

"Oh, you're finally here." She said casually as if she had not been staring at him a few seconds ago.

"Yeah, I had something attend to." he said as if he didn't owe any real explanation for coming late."Can I come in?" he asked Belle abruptly who was standing in his way.

"Yeah, sure."Belle said as she hurriedly moved out if his way." We'll be having our session in the dining room." she added as she closed the door.

The dining room was to the left side of the lounge." Hey." Fedrrico simply greeted as he walked past me to the dining. "Hey." I greeted back.

I happened to smell his cologne as he walked by me which was also pretty good.

We sat across the table so that we could face each other. We both turned our heads to Belle who was standing in front of the table.

"Alright," she began. "Its already getting late so I'm just going to rush through the whole rules and regulations thing."

She brought out her phone from her pocket, clicked on a few things before reading:

"Frendzation rules and regulations.

Rule number one, members of the frendzation are not allowed to judge, tease or discriminate each other on issues based on gender, race, culture, beliefs, religion, social differences and so on.

Number two, the two members must be willing to give chances to understand each other even though it may be difficult at times, this will help in building a friendship.

Number three, members should not fail to meet up for the frendzation sessions unless on emergencies that should be reported to the given coach and participants must attempt all given assignments and activities.

Number four, participants must be willing to try out new things, for example; the hobbies of another frendzation partner.

And finally, if members have problems or difficulties with frendzation partner or feel like dropping out, then make that known to the coach in charge, who will then report to the frendzation organization."

She looked up from her phone. "Any questions?" Belle asked us.

"No." we both replied in unison.

"Great! Now let's begin with the activity for the day. Since this is actually your first frendzation session, you guys work for the day will be introducing and getting to know yourselves a little better.I'll leave  you guys to it and I'll be in the kitchen definitely not paying attention to any of this." She said as she walked to the kitchen. What I got from that was;

1, she was definitely going to be listening to our whole conversation and

2, I was going to be left here, alone, with Federico.

Not that I was nervous or anything but that I was not the best in starting any sorts of conversations especially with the most popular person in school.

"You have anything to say?" he asked with a bored look on his face.

"You seem uninterested in this." I said

"Because I am," he answered sternly. "By the say is your friend going to be eavesdropping on our conversation?" he asked in a low voice so that Belle could not hear him if she was eavesdropping.

"Probably, " I answered with a light giggle. "Belle can be a little weird sometimes."I said jokingly but truthfully.

He was taken aback by my statement." Sorry, who can be a little weird? "he asked, repeating what I said with a perplexed expression on his face.

I had a confused expression on my face too, I did not understand what he meant by that, but then I realized what he was actually trying to say" Oh, you probably think I'm weird after running away like that in the hall earlier today." I said feeling a little bad and embarrassed.

"Do you blame me?" he asked with an emotionless expression on his face.

I wanted to say yes, because he did not know the real reason I ran away and because he did not really know me.But I just stayed quiet.

"And about that, I wanted to ask, why did you run away? Was there something on my face or was I looking scary?" he asked curiously.

"No, it's nothing like that."i quickly said." Actually the thing is that ummm, well.. I played a truth or dare game earlier on and I was dared to run away from every blonde haired guy I saw."i stuttered. I was honestly the worst with coming up with excuses.

I did not tell him the truth for many reasons like he would just probably laugh  at me thinking that I am a weirdo who is scared of Kylie and since him and Kylie are friends I did not just want to speak bad to him about her. Most importantly, I did not want Kylie's or the GGGs' trouble.

"Okay."he said the word in more of a question than agreeing to what I said. He was definitely unconvinced by my explanation."Is that really it?" he asked a little suspiciously as he squinted his eyes at me.

"Yeah, that's the truth. Anyways I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings by doing that."

He looked at me for a moment before he broke into laughter. I wondered what he was laughing about, I was just apologizing.

After laughing for a few seconds he calmed down and wiped a small tear from his right eye."Did you really think I felt bad? Look Amehila, I'm not some kind of dude that would just feel bad after a girl runs away. Yeah what you did was weird and feeling a little confused is normal but me feeling all bad and insecure, that's a total no."He let out another chuckle once more.

I felt angry and annoyed at the same time, he was laughing at the fact that I had some kind of sympathy for him. So in other words he was actually mocking the fact that I thought people like him got hurt by the smallest things. Rude.

But I mostly blamed myself, how could I think a guy like Federico had feelings? And not only that he pronounced my name wrongly.We had not even started on getting to know each other and this actually turned out to be the worst conversation ever.

"Okay, okay," he said as he quiet down from his laughter, "lets now start with the frendzation business." he said adjusting himself on the chair suddenly feeling interested. He probably saw me as some kind of amusing joke.

"Its Amelia not Amehila." I corrected.
