A Crush I Can t date My Goodnovel Crush

My phone’s ringtone woke me up. Groaning, I reached for my phone on the bedside table. It was Stephanie.

"Sarah," she yelled, making me flinch. I wondered why she was calling early, as she was supposed to be with her friends, having a sleepover.

"Damian is back! My childhood crush is back!! He has returned! Turn on the television, Sarah. They’re broadcasting his arrival at the airport!" Her excitement overflowed as she spoke.

I scoffed. She didn’t just wake me up for this.

"Everyone is tuning in. Oh my! I'm looking at him right now. He looks so adorable.” she gushed.

I rubbed my eyes and let out a sigh "You're very dramatic, Steph, " I remarked, ending the call.

If it wasn’t that she's my sister, I would’ve yelled at her. I don't like my sleep interrupted. I grabbed the remote for the flat-screen TV in my room and switched it on. True to her words, they were still airing a live video of Damian’s return at the airport.

I tried not to roll my eyes. Like what’s so special about him?

Damian Delance was being swarmed by reporters at the airport. The media praised his global awards and status as the top eligible bachelor at 21. He mentioned returning to complete high school, then left with his bodyguards.

I turned off the Tv to prepare for school. I had my bath, and changed into our uniform; green blazer, white sleeve and skimpy skirt.

Then Nanny Linda gave me breakfast of pancakes, and smoothie. And as usual, Daddy had gone to work.

Ever since mom died of cancer, dad gave himself to his company. Stephanie became more wild, and I stayed at home being the introvert I was.

I got into the car so my chauffeur, Mr Idris, would drive me to school.

In less than 10 minutes, we arrived at Euphoren High School. Idris highlighted from the car to open it for me. And he bade me farewell as I walked along the premises. The whole school was buzzing also with the news of Damian’s return.

Students were scattered across in pairs and groups, talking about Damian while staring at his pictures on their phones.

“He is so cute,”

“I heard that he’ll be coming to our school,”

My eyes widened at that. I didn't want him to come.

“Oh, gosh! If that ever happens, I will scream my lungs out. Just imagine attending classes with the iconic Damian Delance everyday!” some girls giggled

I almost groaned. Breathing deeply, I took the stairs and entered my classroom.

Suddenly I felt a tight bear hug- Stephanie?
