( INSANE ABOUT YOU )

JoJo’s tears kept rolling down her cheeks as she stared at Draco.

The confessions she heard just now are all for her, her alone.

She has never heard such sweet words before, and they’re making her feel so emotional so the tears never stopped.

She was crying, but at the same time sad, scared and happy.

She’s currently on a rollercoaster of emotions, and it’s driving her nuts.

Draco was the first to move from his s₱0t, and immediately he walked past her, she grabbed his arm, and he stopped walking.

She forgot about the threat that moment, and she was about to voice out when Draco took his arm from her.

“I promise to let go of you, you love him, and if that makes you happy, I’m fine with it” he said, and her eyes w¡dened as he started walking away.

‘Don’t go, don’t leave… don’t!’ she thought inwardly, wishing he’d turn back and come to her, but it never happened till he mounted his bike and drove away.

She squatted immediately, then she started another round of tears.

Butter walked slowly to her and squatted beside her, then he hugged her lightly and started patting her back.

“Stop crying, please”

LOVERBOYZ UNIT★ 8:30PM**

Luke opened her right eye first, and when she noticed no one is around, she opened the second and sat up.

She was actually sleeping on the bed, covered with the duvet.

“I’m just gonna dress up and sneak out , never coming back here!” She said dramatically and got down from the bed.

She ran nakedly to the closet and bandaged her b**bs before slipping into adidas jean and a black shirt, then she wore her black face cap.

“All set!” She smiled and turned to go, but immediately she stepped forward, Walton came in.

She stood frozen on her s₱0t as he walked to her, swallowing hærd as she avoided his gaze.

“How come you have those?” Walton asked, and she looked up slowly.

“Huh?”

“B**bs, p*ssy, I saw them clearly, would you mind explaining?” Walton replied, not looking away from her.

Luke swallowed hærd again, finding it difficult to speak.

“Talk to me!” Walton shouted, and she flinched.

“I….I’m…I… I’m a…. I’m a….girl” she stuttered.

“What are you saying?”

“I’m really… really…a girl, and my name is Lucy, not Luke” she replied, and Walton’s eyes w¡dened.

“Huh?”

“I….I disguised as a boy to join the band cos I really wanted to” Luke muttered at the verge of tears.

“You fooled I and Lustre” Walton said shockingly.

“I’m sorry, I was just so desperate and….

“Do you know how crazy I went over the thought that I’ve actually been k-sing a guy?, I thought I’ve turned gay when I kept falling for you every f**king day even as a guy!” Walton said, and Luke eventually let out her tears.

“I’m so sorry Walton, i just wanted to badly sing and there was no other way” she cried.

“It’s obvious” Lustre said and came in.

Walton and Luke turned to him immediately.

“Leader” Luke muttered.

“Obvious?” Walton said shockingly.

“No matter how much the disguise is, my eyes will always recognize a girl, you just couldn’t see” Lustre replied.

“Her fans would feel betrayed once they find out she’s a girl, she’ll lose a lot of them” Walton said worriedly.

“The true fans will stay, and besides, we’re not revealing that right now, we’ll do it next month the night I’ll reveal my face on stage” Lustre replied, and their eyes w¡dened.

“Leader are you for real?” Luke gasped.

“Yeah, next month when we return from the trip to India, our first concert after that, I’ll reveal my face” Lustre replied, and Walton hugged him immediately.

“Don’t even change your mind” he said, and Lustre smiled before hugging him back.

“We have to be fast, concert is 9:30 and this is 8:50” Lustre said, and Walton quickly broke the hug.

“I’ll go get ready” he said and left the room without saying another word to Luke.

“He must be very mad at me” Luke muttered, biting her lip slowly as she wiped her tears.

“Stop crying already, he’ll come around” Lustre said.

“Thanks for having my back leader” Luke replied, and Lustre stroked her hair like a kid.

“Kiddo” he smiled.

“I’m not a kid” she sniffed, and he giggled before wiping her tears.

JOJO’S PLACE**

Viola was sitting in the living room when JoJo arrived at the house, and her eyes w¡dened immediately.

“Viola!”

“My crybaby!” Viola pouted cutely and stood to hug her.

“It’s really you” JoJo smiled, breaking the hug to look at her face.

“Of course!, And guess what?, I’m sleeping here tonight!, I just don’t feel like sleeping alone at my house tonight” she replied.

“Aww!” JoJo smiled, and Viola held her face.

“Your eyes are red, you don’t look too good, did something happen?” She asked.

“I’m fine baby, where’s mum?” JoJo asked.

“She was tired so she went to bed early, she’s so hospitable and she cooks so well, I enjoyed her potato sauce” Viola winked, and JoJo smiled as her phone beeped.

Immediately she saw it’s a message from the stalker, she stepped back from Viola before reading.

**HOW DARE YOU HOLD DRACO’S HAND BY THE RIVERSIDE?, I CLEARLY TOLD YOU NEVER TO GO NEAR HIM NOT TO TALK OF TOUCHING HIM, YOU WANNA DIE?**

Her body shook immediately, and another one appeared.

**TRANSFER OUT OF STANFORD!**

“What!” She said loudly.

Another one came in, and her thumb was shaking as she clicked it.

**NO, GET OUT OF CALI COMPLETELY OR I’LL KILL YOU!!**

Her body shook more, and Viola suddenly snatched the phone from her.

“Viola!” She gasped as Viola started reading the messages.

“Since when did you start getting these?” She asked when she finished reading.

“Viola it’s…

“I need monotonic answers” Viola cut in, looking angry.

“I was actually kidnapped last night” JoJo replied.

“Kidnapped?”

“Yes, from the arts club center, a masked guy kidnapped me and warned me never to talk to Draco again, then this morning I started getting the texts” she replied.

“You could have told me or Draco!, He’d have wasted whoever it is!” Viola said and picked her bag from the couch.

“Where are you going to?” JoJo asked.

“To get rid of whoever it is, I’ll hold on to your phone ok?” Viola replied and rushed out of the house.

*****

10:30PM★DRACO’S UNIT**

Draco’s car stopped in front of it, and he came out looking exhausted and weak, but he was surprised to see Viola waiting.

“Brother!” She rushed to him.

He kept quiet as she got to him.

“JoJo was kidnapped last night, she was threatened to stay away from you, she has been getting threatening texts since morning” she said urgently, and his eyes w¡dened.

“What!”

“I tracked the number already, and guess where it led me to?” She said, showing him the location.

He never waited for another minute before rushing to a particular unit.

Viola rushed after him.

******

NEXT DAY★ JOJO’S PLACE**

It’s a Saturday, and normally Friday/Saturday sleep is always a long drive for her, but last night’s didn’t even start, talk more of moving.

JoJo didn’t sleep throughout, all she thought about was Draco’s words last night, and how he eventually said he’ll let go of her, it hurts.

She brushed her teeth lazily and when she came out of the bathroom, she met Viola sitting on her bed already.

“You scared me!” She held her chest, and Viola stood to hug her.

“You must have been so scared, I’m sorry you had to pass through everything cos of my bro” she said, stroking her hair.

“I’m fine” JoJo replied slowly.

“The person has been taken care of, trust Draco” Viola said, and JoJo quickly broke the hug.

“Huh?”

“Yeah, she won’t dare text or send kidnapper to you again” Viola smiled.

“She?”

“Yeah, she’s a girl you know very well, you should be careful of your friends from now on” Viola replied.

“My friends?” JoJo said in confusion.

“Wanna go ride bicycle with me?, It’s Saturday let’s go to the popular runway!” Viola said, and her eyes brightened up.

“Of course!”

She quickly changed and they both left the house, meeting Victoria in the kitchen.

“Mummy I’m going for bicycle ride with Viola!” She shouted.

“Breakfast will be ready before you guys return!, Have fun!” Victoria shouted back.

******

BUTTER’S UNIT**

Butter was already riding away on his bicycle when James rushed out of the house.

“Drake you’re not very fine yet!” He shouted

“My room is suffocating, I need some fresh air” he replied, pedalling off.

“Guess I’ll have to tag along” James said and rushed back in.

He came out in green shorts and shirt, then he rode out on another bicycle, but a little before he’ll get out, he sighted Snow.

Though she covered her face with a scarf, but he’ll always recognize her.

He stopped and got off, then he walked to her.

He removed her scarf from behind, and immediately she faced him, his eyes w¡dened.

Her eyes are all swollen, he could barely see her eyeballs, and there are bruises all-over her face and neck, her l-ips are bigger than each other, she looks unrecognizable.

“Snow why are you…

Before he could finish, she slapped him hærd, then she snatched the scarf from him.

She covered her face again and rushed away.

“Who… did that to…to her” James muttered, still in shock.

*****

BICYCLE RUNWAY**

Butter met a whole lot of students when he got there, but he’s not sure weather JoJo is present, so he only concentrated on driving, but he suddenly saw her.

She’s riding on a bicycle beside Viola, and she seems happy cos she’s giggling loudly.

He smiled immediately, then he rode to them.

“Idol!” Viola gushed, and JoJo looked his way too.

“Hey” she smiled.

“You didn’t cry yourself to sleep, right?” He asked.

“No” JoJo smiled.

“My name is Luna!!!” Luna’s voice s¢ræmed, and JoJo smiled as she appeared with Winter.

They’re both on a two-seaters bicycle.

“Is this how you s¢ræm your name around?” Viola curved her l-ips as she spoke.

“Don’t mind this lunatic” Winter replied.

“Finally caught up with you” James said, stopping his bicycle beside Butter’s.

“James!” Winter waved, and he smiled lightly.

“Butter!!!” v×rgiπia shouted from an angle, running to them.

“Hey guys!” She waved, and everyone hissed.

“Whatever!, Butter I don’t have a bicycle and yours is two-seaters, can I ride with you?” She asked.

“No idol, lemme ride with you instead!” Viola replied, getting down from her bicycle.

Luna bit her lip, dying to ask too but she kept quiet.

“JoJo, you wanna ride?” He asked.

“Me?” She replied, sighting Draco immediately.

He’s sitting on a chair in the center of the runaway.

“No, ride with Viola instead” she said, and Viola quickly climbed behind him before he could protest.

He rode away reluctantly, Viola snaked her arms around him, blushing hærd as she did.

Her heart was racing like crazy, and she instantly felt like riding with him forever.

Winter climbed behind James without asking.

“What are you doing!” He said surprisingly.

“Riding with you!, Go!” She replied loudly, and James sighed before moving.

She quickly held him tight, smiling cutely as he rode.

“This is the moment I’ve always wanted” she muttered, holding him tighter.

“Bullshit!” v×rgiπia stumped her foot and left with Cora.

“JoJo let’s continue together” Luna said, but to her surprise, she’s not there anymore, only her bicycle.

She looked ahead to see her walking to Draco already.

“I’ll just ride alone” she said sadly and rode away.

A little before JoJo will get to Draco, Abigail rushed to him , and she stopped.

“Draco let’s ride together!” Abigail said, and he stood.

His eyes met with JoJo’s immediately, and he looked away.

He mounted his bicycle and Abigail mounted behind him.

Immediately Abigail held wrapped her arms around him, JoJo folded her fists, watching hurtfully as he rode down the lane.

She swallowed hærd, fighting back her tears as she watched.

*****

7PM★

JoJo rushed out of the house with an umbrella over her head since it’s raining, Viola was already waiting out for her.

She mounted the bike and covered herself with the umbrella as Viola drove down the road.

She can’t take it anymore, she’s not ready to experience another sleepless night when he’s not far from him.

She hasn’t been able to eat anything since she came back from the bicycle runway in the morning, her head has been full of Draco.

Whenever she thinks about Abigail’s arms around him, she goes mad, and it was already getting out of hand, so she had to make this choice.

Twenty minutes later, the bike entered the hostel and stopped in front of Draco’s unit.

She came down and faced Viola.

“Thanks”

“Anything for my crybaby” She replied, and JoJo smiled before walking in.

She climbed the stairs and got to his door like Viola described.

She knocked softly, and the door opened almost immediately.

He did the worse by coming shirtless, and that dried away all the saliva on her tongue.

They stood there staring at each other till she dropped the umbrella and came in slowly.

She took the door from Draco and shut it before facing him.

“Why are you here?” He asked almost in a whisper.

JoJo took in her bottom lip for a while before summoning courage.

She brought it out w-t, then she pressed the upper one on it, driving Draco insane with only that.

“I….I… think….I think I love you” she said shyly, and Draco’s eyes w¡dened immediately, but he controlled it and acted normal.

“You love Butter, how come you love me too” he said.

“No I only told him I love him as a friend, trust me” she replied quickly, searching through his eyes.

The tension in the room could kill, and the emotions in their eyes is burning.

They kept staring at each other deeply, their heartbeats doing consecutive echoes in their ears.

Draco hasn’t been sane since morning too, he hasn’t been doing anything right.

Things kept falling from him like a clumsy maid, so he just stared at his nature pictures though he kept seeing her face in every frame.

Doing that with Abigail in the morning was just to make her believe he has actually forgotten about her, he’s not so irrational.

He looked at her again and his throat moved hungrily as he gazed at her w-t l-ips.

She loves him, the owner of his heartbeats loves him back, he’s already going mad, insanely mad.

JoJo suddenly stepped forward, and before he knew it, she stood on her toes and placed her l-ips on his own, k-sing him lightly.

“Goodnight” she said after the k-s, then she stepped back.

“I’m leaving” she waved and turned to the door.

She hasn’t even held the knob when Draco’s cold hand pulled her back to himself.

Her chest slammed on his own as his other arm wrapped on her slim w–st, and her lashes moved upwards as she stared at him.

“Knight…

“You think you love me?” He whispered, his l-ips right in front of hers.

“I love you very much knight, please be my knight in shining armor to the square of eternity” she whispered into his mouth, and he bent more closely, their l-ips almost touching.

“I love you madly…. heartbeat” he replied and claimed her l-ips immediately, k-sing her h-rder than that night in the rain

JoJo instantly held his face in her palms just the way she loves, and their legs moved as they k-sed hungrily, their gr–ns and gasps filling up the whole room

Draco held her w–st tighter, and she started rubbing his jawlines with her fingers.

They were k-sing so desperately that their bodies curved into each other, and as they moved around, they stumbled on a table first, and everything on it fell, but they still continued till they stumbled on the shoe rack, and it fell too, letting out all the shoes on it.

Draco held her closer so she won’t fall, and he deepened the k-s, driving his right hand into her full brown hair.

His other hand crawled to her back, his fingertips pressing into her bralette top, drawing gentle circles against the small strip of bare skin.

That made her break the k-s with a gasp, and their wistful passionate eyes stared into each other affectionately.

“I can’t let you go tonight, heartbeat” he murmured into her mouth.

“I don’t want to leave either, I wanna stay with you, knight” she whispered.

“F**k, I’m insane about you Ann” he muttered and pushed her back gently against the wall.

Her arms went to his porcelain skin, and his own went to her @ss as their l-ips smashed again.

Like an ice cream in a waffle cone, they melted into each other.
