"What gives!" Chloe yelled.
'What?" I asked bored.
"You have that cheeky smile and your eyes are gloomy" Kenner explained.
"Yeah so what gives come on spill" Gerald spoke.
"Nothing , theres nothing to tell" I defended.
"That's exactly what someone with something to tell would say" Gerald said.
"Do your love smiles have anything to do with Carter?" Kenner popped.
I almost blushed at the mention of his name.
"Can you atleast not say his name I loathe him" I said with a made up tone of hatred all this lying could have actually helped me get a new career path into becoming a lawyer.
"So do you like the guy who's name we shall not say?" Asked Chloe.
"No I do not like him people" I grumbled.
"The mouth can only speak" mumbled Gerald.
"He's a very jolly good looking man it is difficult not to like him" Kenner said.
"Boy he's a boy Kenner not a man" I protested.
"Well to me he is a man" she defended on her behalf.
"AND People are different Kenner I don't like his face" I continued to lie.
"Then you are a nutshell" Chloe concluded.
"Just because you guys like him doesn't mean I do" I raised my hands in the air.
"Oh I do not like him sweetheart, I am in love with him" Gerald shouted.
"I fancy your hatred for him however because eventually you're going to fall for him" Kenner provoked me.
"I will not fall for him!"
"If it takes you to Disney land" Kenner smiled chewing on her gum.
"I don't even like Disney land"
"If it floats your boat" she said standing up chewing her gum loudly... invading my personal space.
"Kenner you're bricking the child" Gerald said walking up to Kenner pushing her away from me.
"Oh come on I was just having fun" then she walked away.
Utter joy invaded me.
▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️
I didn't know exactly what Carter and I had but whatever it was I wanted to end it before I ended up being heartbroken.
Yes like any girl out there I was afraid of the so called 'heartbreak'. So like the coward I was I avoided him in every way possible. How lovely.
I walked down the school library when suddenly a rough hand pulled me with so much force I'm sure my hand broke, note the exaggeration.
Before I screamed I looked up to face Carter. Oh for crying out loud why?
Why him? Infact why me?
"What?" I asked annoyed.
"Be nice" he hissed.
"Fancy coming from you" I snickered.
"Why do you keep running away from me?" He asked rudely.
"Dont flatter yourself Carter i would never waste my energy running away from you" I snapped.
"Suit yourself" he paused "i-i missed you" he stuttered softly as if he wasnt sure ... melting my heart in the process.
"Shut your hole I'm not listening to your gibberish" I said covering my ears as my face heated .he said he missed me.
I knew at that moment ...I needed a new brain.
"Can I atleast walk you to your studio"
Chloe wasnt there, so was Kenner and Gerald.
"Sure" I smiled.
We walked silently until the handsome jerk broke the silence.
"Seriously why do you keep changing directions whenever you spot me" he asked exasperated.
"No reason" I replied silently.
"Why did you change your sitting position?why did you even change your work shift?why did you change your study time in the library?why di..."
"You said you wanted to walk me not to play one sided twenty questions" I blew a breathe after saying that. Without a response he intertwined our fingers.
Tiny sparks threatened to electrocute me.
His big hands were cold and veiny, you have no idea how I wished I were his steering wheel. No no no please not these thoughts again.
"Bye" he said letting go of my hand as we had reached my doorstep.
One of his hands scratched his neck as the other one made way to pull a stray strand of my hair forward earning a moan from me.
"Hey" I yelled " that was painf.." he cut my words short with a lip crushing kiss.
And like the gullible female I was to his lips i kissed him back my hands locking with his hair.
I didnt know how he did it but he managed to open the door , we didnt notice anything in the room as we made our way to the couch eyes closed.
Chloe wouldn't mind sharing a make out spot right? This was the first time the idea of using that couch didn't make me cringe.
Then suddenly my eyes snapped open.
Only to face the terror stricken faces of Chloe , Kenner and Gerald.
Well SHIT.
