Chapter 22

❃ Ivan’s point of view ❃
I have only one thing in mind I would like to dispel all my doubts, I am also afraid of the answer that Brayan could give me, I felt sadness in Charley’s voice just now, I fear to have hurt him, I am also afraid to have hurt him unintentionally, at least deliberately, in any case, I must be clear, while I wonder if I should ask Brayan about Charley, Brayan was just looking at me and saying nothing either.
– Brayan, do you like Charley?
– Could I tell why you suddenly ask me this question? (Brayan)
– Just answer my question!
– Yes, I like it very much! (Brayan)
– And you tell me like that!
– It was you who asked me the question, right? (Brayan)
– And she, she is in love with you?
– Ivan, frankly, you are disturbing with your head, you know very well, even more than well that you have the chosen one of his heart! What makes you doubt Charley’s feelings towards you? (Brayan laughing)
– She often asks to talk to you deprives you of it, while youare talking I see you looking into her eyes without looking away for a single moment.
– Ah that, the last time she talked to me about depriving it was to tell me that her friend Ally has feelings for me, about the look, you know me, you know that when I talk with someone I can’t help but look the person in the eye. (Brayan)
– It’s true sorry to have doubted…
– I don’t believe it, you were jealous of me, it’s too funny. (Brayan)
Ally comes in front of me and Brayan being out of breath, she told us that Charley’s father brought Charley and Wendy, she added that Charley’s father was very angry, oh, I didn’t take Charley’s punishment into account, I wonder what might happen to him, if her father ever punished her severely I would not have the courage or the strength to forgive myself, I would not be able to look her in the face.
– What are you waiting for? Go get her! (Brayan)
– He won’t go looking for her! (Ally)
– Why do you say that! (Brayan)
– Charley did not come to class after the discussion she had with Ivan, I do not know at all what you told her Ivan, from my point of view she must have been enormously hurt by what you told her so that she did not come to class, at the big break I did not see it anywhere, the idiot here did not think about what he was probably saying. (Ally)
– Allthere I am your leader, watch your way of speaking!
– Because you are the leader I must not say the fact of my thoughts? (Ally)
– Aren’t you afraid I’ll pull you out of the band?
– If it is the prix that I have to pay for defending my friend then I am ready to pay it, you can remove me from the group if you wish. (Ally)
– You don’t…
– Ivan! (Brayan)
– You don’t call me an idiot in the future, because otherwise you won’t be a member of the Swivel band!
Ally nodded at me confirming my head, I leave Brayan and Ally alone, I go away to wait for a taxi to get to Charley’s house.
❃ Brayan point of view ❃
Ally looked me straight in the eye for about 3 seconds and she looked away, I want to get Charley out of my head, I want to forget her because her heart is already taken, I have a person who stands in front of me and is in love with me, I have to give us a chance, I called Ally to look at me again, Ally looked at me, I held her by the nape to bring her lips closer to mine, I kissed her, she did not withdraw from the kiss and joining my movements, we moved our lips away.
– What does this mean? (Ally)
– I only have one thing to tell you, I want to give us a chance, Charley told me about the feelings you have for me.
– Ah, She should never have told you about that! (Ally)
– Why not?
– It was up to me to tell you! (Ally)
– It doesn’t matter, I made him understand by kissing him.
The bus arrived, we moved our lips away a second time, I took Ally’s hand, we went to the bus, Emna and Rey got on the bus, I got on the bus holding Ally’s hand.
❃ Ivan’s point of view ❃
I take a taxi, arriving a few kilometers from Charley’s house I pay the driver and I get out of the taxi, I run to Charley’s, I ring the doorbell non-stop, they open me.
– You!
– Ivan, what brings you to my house? (My dance teacher)
– Are you Charley’s father?
– Where do you know my daughter from? (My dance teacher)
– I met him in high school and your daughter is my girlfriend!
– Did I hear correctly? Are you dating my daughter?
– I’m sorry you learn it this way, as far as I’m concerned today everything is my fault, I ignored the effect that Charley was deprived of exits, I told her to come and join me to go to the contest, I saw in her eyes that she did not want to disobey you but I forced her to come to the contest.
– Damn it, Ivan, you’re one of my best students, I can’t believe you could have done such a thing. (My dance teacher)
– Excuse me, I was ignorant and selfish!
– CHARLEY, my dance teacher suddenly shouted.
I saw Charley getting ready to go down stairs, « What, what else have I done? » she said as she walked down the stairs.
– Ivan? (Charley, managing to rate his father)
– Your boyfriend! (My dance teacher)
– Dad, let me explain! (Charley)
– There is nothing to explain! (My dance teacher as he leaves the living room)
I stare at Charley, she does not wearthe outfit of the contest, we smoulder with Charley for a long time (eyes contact), I advance from her by not taking her eyes off her, in front of her I place my hand on her hair and kiss her.
-You’re crazy, my father could see us! (Charley, removing my hand from his hair and withdrawing from the kiss)
I put my hand back on her hair and put her forehead on my forehead, I say « Charley, I love you », she replied « I love you too ».
