Just Go With It || Brett Talbot

2. Just go with it.

"Hattie, are you sure you're feeling alright about this?" Casey asked as we sat down in the lunch hall. I pulled out my pasta and started to eat it.

"Feeling alright about what?" I asked as I looked around the hall. My eyes landed on my Jacob, he had Annie on his lap and they were feeding each other. I almost spat out my pasta as I started to choke. As I regained myself I looked at Casey, her blue eyes looking at me with worry. "I'm fine about it Case, honestly."

I sat back as I pushed my pasta away from me, "but I don't want that now, that's for sure."

'She shouldn't have cheated..' I heard someone think making me look around again as I noticed the looks I was getting from people all around me. "Does everyone know about the break up?"

"Yeah, they think that he dumped you." Casey informed me making me shake my head as I stood up.

'Slut' I heard someone think and I got angry.

"God, people are so stupid. Surely the broken nose says it all?" I said as I picked up my pasta and headed towards the bin. I put it in the bin and as i turned around I was taken into someone's arms. I was about to struggle until I heard a soothing voice.

"Please, just go with it. I've got my ex-girlfriend on my case," Brett explained and I hugged him back.

"What do you want me to do?" I asked quietly, I didn't mind, I owed him one.

"Can you pretend to me my girlfriend? She's now walking over." He asked and I smiled to myself.

"Sure," I said as we pulled away from each other. I noticed a black haired girl walking over to us, she was quite pretty and I knew exactly who she was. She was captain of the cheerleading team and I have always felt intimidated by her. Brett wrapped his arm around my waist and held me close as she reached us.

"Brett," she greeted before she trailed her eyes up and down my body with a scowl. "Who's this?"

"This is my girlfriend, Hattie." He informed her and I watched as her eyebrows raised.

'What?' She asked in her head making me bite my tongue.

"It's nice to meet you, Hattie. I'm Brett's ex-girlfriend." She smiled sarcastically, adding emphasis to the 'ex'.

"I've heard a lot about you." I fake smiled, trying not to add tension to the already awkward situation.

"That's funny, I haven't heard anything about you." She spat, I could tell she was annoyed.

'fucking bitch, he can do so much better.' she thought and I smirked.

"That's what we agree'd, isn't it Brett? To keep things on the down low because we don't want people interfering in business that isn't their own." I said calmly, and Brett hummed a response as he moved his hand from my waist to up my arm and he pulled me into him while he kissed my forehead.

"Shall we go somewhere more private, babe?" He asked, and I nodded.

"It was nice seeing you," I said sarcastically as we turned away and walked out of the hall. Brett and I walked into an empty classroom and moved away from each other.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" He breathed as he ran his hands through his hair and let out a breath of relief. I smiled at him. "That was so funny, did you see her face?" He asked excitedly.

"She didn't like that one bit," I laughed and he nodded in agreement.

"No she didn't," he agreed before his eyes went wide. "I bet you she's telling her friends right now,"
