Chapter 1: First day back
Chelsea and Noah could tell that i was nervous as we walked into school together for the first day of classes. Now i normally wasn't nervous on the first day back but this past summer i had a fling with the captain of the football team Brett. Things ended badly and he said he would ruin me at school. Now normally Chelsea Noah and i would spend the time until the school bell rings together but i wanted to lay low and hope that no one would notice me. So i set off down the hall.
Minutes later i hear footsteps behind me. I pick up my pace thinking it was a teacher trying to find out where i was going or a student coming to shame me for whatever Brett says i've done.
Then i hear his voice behind me, "Hey where do you think you're going?"
I stop frozen in my tracks, "What do you want?" I respond.
"Well i was hoping to talk to you for a minute." Brett says as he moves in front of me standing way closer than i would have ever liked after everything he's done.
I look up at his face staring daggers my 5 foot 3 inch athletic frame wouldn't stand a chance in a fight against him but i wanted to hit him. "What lie have you told all your friends about me" I murmur under my breath fists clenched down by my side.
He gives me a toothy grin and chuckles a little bit which just makes me even more furious "Well that's what i wanted to talk to you about" He says all of the sudden becoming very serious "I've thought of a way you can avoid this dilemma" When he finishes talking he places one of his hands on my hip and forces me closer to him.
I open my mouth in shock. After everything he's done to me he has the balls to try to get me to fuck him quiet. I stand there a minute thinking. "What are you going to say to everyone if i turn down your little proposal here?"
Brett smirks, "I'll tell everyone about your little experiment with the biology teacher last year."
Stepping backward i draw back my arm and smack Brett in the chest "You wouldn't dare." I yell, then realizing my volume i hiss at him "That was only a kiss nothing more and you know it."
Brett smiles knowing he's got me backed into a corner "Meet me at my car after school if you want to take the deal otherwise tomorrow everyone will know your dirty little secret."
With that being said the bell rings and Brett turns on his heels and walks away. Not knowing what to do i run off and hide myself into a bathroom knowing full well that i'm going to miss the first half of the school day. When lunchtime rolls around i make my way from my hiding spot in the bathroom to the cafeteria and take my place next to chelsea.
She looks at me in a panic "Where have you been? How could you miss the first half of the day?" Then her face drops as she realizes what's up.
I sniffle "I talked to Brett this morning." Chelsea grabs my hand to comfort me "He wants to talk to me alone in his car after school. After that he said he would drop it." Telling her this helped me come to terms with what i was about to do.
"I'm so sorry all of this happened. At least he's willing to drop it after you talk to him." She says hopefully.
Smiling back at her softly i nod my head, "Then i can have peace with all of this."
Once the conversation had ended we sat there in silence until the bell rang telling us all that lunch was over. The rest of the day went by in a blur. One moment i was sitting at lunch the next the bell signaling the end of the day was ringing and i was walking out to the parking lot in a trance. "I've done this before i can do it again" i think to myself. I push open the door to the parking lot and i see Brett standing next to his car, arms crossed waiting for me.
As i get closer to his car he looks up and smiles "I'm glad you decided to come." he reaches out towards me and grabs my hands "This will be just like all summer, then you don't ever have to talk to me again."
I pull my hands out of his grip and ask softly staring at the ground "Do you promise?"
He walked around to the passenger side of his car and opens the do for me to get in "I promise, i'll even take you home after as an act of good faith."
I step up and slide into the front seat the leather hot on the bottom of my legs. Once i'm in he closes the door and walks around to his side. He hops in starts up the car and drives out of the parking lot. We ride in silence as i stare out the window. Ever so slowly he reaches over and places his hand on my bare thigh just below the hem of my shorts i look over at him startled at the sudden touch, to see him smiling at me. I hated is stupid sexy face. His stupid blond hair and those dumb blue eyes. I even hated his muscles, the washboard abs and his toned arms. I quickly realized that the things i hated him for now were the exact same reasons i loved him in the first place. He looks into my eyes and i realized i was staring at him.
