Chapter 4

  • Book girl
  • You cursed monster! You damned boy!"
  • Everyone in the hallway were already staring at us, their eyes full of curiosity. Watching us like an interesting TV show. which wasn't good. I don't like too many eyes falling on me.
  • "That's enough Mae. Come on let's go" I held Mae by the waist and dragged her away from Rick. She kept on trashing and yelling at Rick.
  • When we finally got to the parking lot, I let go of her, huffing for air. She looks so petite, so small. But damn! she is way heavy.
  • Rick joined us just a few seconds later.
  • "You scoundrel! Just you wait and see. I'm gonna tell Gray on you and he is going to beat you blue black" And there she goes, running away like the little bunny she is. I smacked myself on the face. Huh! I hate it when she behaves like this.
  • "Wait here Shannon. I'll go get her" okay! And there he goes too. Huh! Why didn't mom come to pick me up. Now I have to wait for this two idiots. Rick was the one taking us back home today. He doesn't have a car yet but he drives his Aunt's.
  • I walked over to where the car was packed and placed my back on it. Waiting patiently for those two to come.
  • Few minutes passed by but neither of those two showed up. I chewed on my bottom lip in anger. Huh! I've got tons of assignment to finish.
  • As I was busy waiting for Mae and Rick, I saw someone familiar but not so familiar heading towards my direction. I turned back to see if there was anyone around or behind Rick's car but there was none. Why is he walking towards me.
  • "Hey Shannon, how yah doing?" The boy with the wavy Chestnut hairs smiled at me when he finally got to where I was. His two deep dimples digging into his cheeks with pride. Damn this boy for being blessed with cute dimples.
  • "Hey Simon." I replied him with a nervous smile. Why won't I be nervous?, Isn't it strange?, Why will Simon of all people come to me not to talk of starting a conversation with me. Me of all people! A girl who looks like a nerd and acts like one. A girl who doesn't socialize with people.
  • Simon was one of Tristan friends. He is Tristan close friend actually. A guy who is always seen 24/7 with Tristan.
  • "Walk with me"
  • "Huh?" He chuckled at my reaction but didn't say a word. Without wasting anymore time, he held my right hand and walked back to his group of friends. I was very surprised and also confused at this.
  • Why did he bring me here?, What does he want?. Wait! Am I on the list now?. Am I also part of the people he wants to screw. My heart raced at this.
  • "Shannon meet Jake and Josh" Simon introduced me to the people I'm already familiar with. Who wouldn't know these two? The top players of crystal high. When I mean players, I mean it in two ways. They not only play football but also play girls. Isn't that interesting.
  • "Hi" I waved my hands at them.
  • "Hi baby girl" they both replied almost immediately. They were both leaning on their bikes. Jake sent me a wink which I accepted, giving him a fake smile in return.
  • "So... Simon" I turned my head to stare at his electrifying gray orbs and holy Molly! I almost fell for it. He was still having that smile on his face, his dimples never leaving his cheeks. I really can't blame those girl who fell for this eyes and smile. Hey! They are the victims here. Why will someone look so handsome like this.
  • "You were saying?..." Simon angelic voice brought me out of La La Land. I shook my head to clear my thoughts.
  • "Why did you bring me here?" I asked without wasting anymore time. Going directly to the main topic. I took my eyes off his face not wanting to get distracted again.
  • Jake chuckled at my question and answered instead of Simon.
  • "Our dear Tristan doesn't know who his group partner is. I mean he knows Nikki but not you"
  • Oh! I get it now. But wait! Tristan knows Nikki?. My my, why am I not surprised. Birds of same feathers flock together. Tsk.
  • "Finally! Right on time" Josh voiced out in joy looking behind me.
  • Oh my goodness! That smell, that cologne!, He is here. My tummy churn in happiness. I licked my dry lips and slowly turned back to stare at the key to my forbidden door. The guy who I dream about, all day and all night. The guy who is capable of making my forbidden area drip wet, even without doing anything to it. Oh goodness gracious! I really need to see a doctor. I think I'm sick. I just caught a fever, a fever called Tristan fever.
  • His dark orbs stayed on my face like he was searching through my soul. I took two steps back in fear. Why is he looking at me that way?.
  • "Tristan meet Ms O'Neill" Simon said, followed by an awkward silence.
  • Tristan didn't reply. He was still staring at me. Why the heck won't he stop looking at me. He should say something. No! Someone should please tell him to take his gaze off me and like my prayers were finally heard, he took his eye off me and said,
  • "Book girl?" He asked not so sure of himself before a scoff flew out of his mouth.
  • "Huh?" Simon and Jake both stared at him, looking confused as I am.
  • Book what now?, Why is he calling me book girl?. My mind suddenly raced back to the incident at the library yesterday. Oh! Now I get it.
  • "I'm not book girl. My name is..."
  • "Tomorrow, 6pm. My house" and with that he climbed his motorbike racing out of the school compound.
  • "See him racing off. Tch!" Josh whined and quickly jumped on his bike. "Looser eats bug" that was Jake. He was already driving out of the school parking lot too.
  • "Fuck!" Josh cursed and raced off too. Simon was the last person to get on his bike.
  • "Bye Shannon" he ruffled my hairs and drove past me in a flash.
  • They were all gone now but I still stood there. My legs not wanting to move an inch from where I was. I in a daze. My mind was in a mess. My head kept on ringing Tristan last words.
  • 'Tomorrow, 6pm. My house'
  • He wants me to come over?, Tristan wants to see me? But what does he want from me?. Wait a minute, I can't believe this. Did my wish just come through?, I'm no longer going to be a virgin??. Tristan finally laid his eyes on me. He fucking laid his eyes on me.
  • I squealed internally.
  • "My Shannon!" A familiar voice called out to me. It was Mae. "Why are you standing over there?" She yelled again. She was feeling very happy now. Her small feet ran towards me.
  • "Shannon I finally got back at Rick" she shrieked in excitement. "Come look at Rick. I did a make over" she dragged me back to where I was standing earlier on.
  • "Shannon see what I did, isn't it... crazy right?... Happy... Oh..." Shannon voice faded all of a sudden. The only voice I could hear right now was Tristan's voice.
  • 'Tomorrow, 6pm. My house'
  • 'Tomorrow, 6pm. My house'
  • ' Tomorrow,6pm. My house'
  • "...you there?. Hey Shannon! Shannon!!" I snapped back to reality. My eyes coming to fall on Mae worried brown ones. Her small hands were on my arm.
  • "What happened?"
  • "Tristan wants me to come over to his place. I think he wants to screw me" those words left my lips before I could process it. My gosh!. I was even smiling like a fool.
  • "Huh?" Mae was confused.
  • "Nuh huh Shannon. Not screw. Remember you have a project?" Rick was right. Damn right. Oh fuck me!. I am so dumb. The dumbest of them all.
  • Who was I kidding?, I never even thought of it.
  • I laughed hysterically, clenching and unclenching my fist.
  • "Right!. Gosh! Shannon, you're so dumb" I hit my head continuously.
  • "You're really dumb girl. Tristan of all people don't fuck your kind. He takes high level girls. Someone like Courtney or Natasha. Hey have you seen yourself?, You look like pancakes mixed with ketchup"Mae snorted and I heard Rick's annoying mocking laugh.
  • 'Don't get offended Shannon, don't get offended' I consoled myself. She is only saying the truth, no need to get all worked up. Okay! I can't keep my cool any longer.
  • 'How dare she calls me pancakes mixed with ketchup?'
  • "You fucking..."
  • "Hey bug face" I whipped my head to my left side, looking at the fucked up person who cut me off.
  • It was that other delinquent. Nikki styles.
  • "Bug face?" Rick threw a fit before bursting out. Mae also joined him.
  • These two are not helping out at all.
  • "What?" I gritted my teeth, my hands curling into a fist. My eyes sending death glares to her.
  • "I hope you know the way to Tristan's house?" I didn't answer, I kept on glaring at her. I was even giving her my best glare. She didn't even shrink in fear.
  • "You better don't be late tomorrow. Bug face" This made Rick and Mae laughed harder, they were both holding their tummy. I so hate them.
  • Nikki snorted at me before walking pass me but suddenly came to an halt. Her huge black boots turning around a bit.
  • "And FYI, that is not how to glare at people. This is what a real glare is" She threw a scornful look at me. Right now she was looking like a real demon with the way she was glaring at me.
  • I shrink in fear and I swear, I almost fell on my butt.
  • "Bye bug face" she snorted again and started walking off.
  • Jesus! That girl is so creepy. She is a psycho. How can a glare be that evil?. I can't even imagine myself staying alone with her. She gon' kill me.
  • I sighed and rubbed my aching temple. Today is not so good at all. I need to have a nice bath and lie down on my soft bed.
  • "We need to go... Woah ooo!" I moved back in shock after seeing Rick's face. "The heck happened to your face Rick?!"
  • Rick dabbed his eyes with a white handkerchief before putting on a frown on his face.
  • "This meanie devil did this horrible thing to me!" He pointed his long index finger at Mae, anger laced in his voice.
  • Mae giggled and skipped from one foot to another.
  • "Isn't it wonderful Shannon?. We finally got back at Rick" she smiled and sighed dreamingly. I snorted and then let out a small chuckle.
  • "Right!" I agreed with her.
  • Rick scowled at me and went over to the driver's seat before getting in.
  • "Get your damn butts into the car you two" he yelled before shutting the door in anger.
  • Mae and I both stared at each other before bursting out. Ha! Payback is so sweet.
  • "Okay, okay!. Let's get into the car before Mr butt face leave us behind" Mae said and quickly jumped into the back seat.
  • I smiled and also got into the car, sitting on the passenger seat next to Mr butt face. Rick angrily stepped on the accelerator, driving fast out of the school compound.
  • I shrieked and quickly raced for the seatbelt, strapping myself into it.
  • "Woah! Slow down butt face" Mae chuckled from the back seat.
  • "Keep calling me butt face and I'll shove my dick down your fucking throat" Rick cursed with so much venom. Okay, this is getting out of hand and damn! What did Rick just say?.
  • "No offence Rick, But I don't lick a dick that has been stuck into a guy's hole" Mae snorted.
  • "Okay that's enough you two!" I half yelled. "Sweet Lord! You guys are getting on my nerves" I added with a scowl.
  • "He started it"
  • "She started it"
  • I mentally slapped myself on the face. Gosh! I hate hearing these two bickering.
  • "So Shannon, do yah wanna follow me to a party this Friday night?"
  • I whipped my head to stare at the petite figure sitting... No sleeping on the back seat without any care in this world. She acts lazy all the time. I wonder if she was a sloth in her past life.
