The Dating Rumour
"Girl," Lilly sits down besides Lola. "Did you hear?"
"What?" the blonde tilts her head.
"Noor and Ayan are dating!"
Lola’s eyes widen. "Say swear."
"Swear!"
"Oh shit. Davina is going to flip."
As if on cue, Davina walks to their table and slams her bag down, her face red. "Tell me why, yesterday I was on the phone to MY boyfriend and he told me we were never even dating and he’s with Noor? NOOR!?"
"Guess she’s the one who started the rumour," Lilly mutters.
Josh from the table besides them overhears their conversation and he turns back to his friends. "Bro. Noor and Ayan are dating?"
"What?" Kane frowns. "No they’re not. Noor hates him."
"That’s what I thought! But apparently Ayan told Davina that he’s with her."
"Davina’s always making up shit," Liam shakes his head. "I don’t believe a word that comes out of her mouth."
"But why would she lie about that when she’s obsessed with the guy?" Parker asks. "She’s been telling everyone that their together since the day that he slept with her."
"She just can’t can’t understand it was a one night stand.." Kane shakes his head.
"Okay—Anyway," Josh speaks up again. "Noor and Ayan?"
"That was certainly the last thing I was expecting." Liam sips his drink.
"I swear she hated him?" Kane says.
"Right?" Josh nods. "What’s with the sudden change of heart?"
"Guess we’ll never know.." Parker sighs.
