The Alpha Bitch

Chapter Five

Hey guys. My chapters have been super short...I'll try to make them longer.

Oh, and THANK YOU SO FREAKING MUCH if you commented or voted. Love you guys!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It couldn't be possible. He couldn't be possible.

He's not human. He talked to me...in my head. I swear. There's no other explanation. There can't be any other explanation.

And...he talked to me...through my head? I went away with him, but I hadn't. Oliver said I just zoned out. Not went away with the hottest guy I've ever seen in my life.

Luke. Jinxx. Oliver. I don't even know who I like anymore. It's all so confusing. Nothing makes sense in my head anymore.

Last night Oliver drove me home. He's so nice; I really do like him.

And Luke, and Jinxx...

My phone buzzed. One NEW Text! it read. I hit open.

Hey Riley. It's me, Oliver. I'm just wondering...do you want to see a movie or something? I can't stop thing about you. Text or call me when you can.

A movie. Yeah, I could do that. I texted him I could, and he texted back saying he'd pick me up at seven.

I hope I like Oliver. I just don't know anymore.

My phone buzzed. One NEW Text! it said. I hit open.

Hello, Riley. This is Jinxx. Oliver: Not a good idea either.

Emotions for me? I'm currently picking between anger, happiness, and completely freaked out.

Anger. Who does this guy think he is? Telling me to stay away, and then getting his ass into my dating life. No way. I'm going on that date tonight.

Happiness. Hey, one text can mean something. He might think he's in control of my life, but he's fucking hot.

Completely freaked out. When did I tell him my number? Hell, when did I tell Oliver my number? Oh, that's right. I didn't.

So the biggest emotion?

I don't know. He's a bitch...but hot....and yet still has time to be my stalker.

And somehow I'm not thinking of any of this. I'm thinking of Liam.

The guy I knocked out. Remember?

I don't even know why I did that. I said something to him, he said something to me. Mean things. I got mad. He saw it and used it to his advantage. But then I yelled something out to the school.

You see, Liam--even though now he is the biggest player ever--used to be gay. That's right. Gay. As in, falling in love with guys at school, hanging posters of Damon from The Vampire Diaries in his room, and taking no notice to girls.

But I was the only one who knew. None of his friends noticed when he rolled his eyes every time a girl touched him. Or how he was making eyes at the male population of the school.

No one but me. I don't even know if he knew I knew. It was only until junior year, when he asked me out, and I asked "Aren't you gay?" and he told me he used to be.

And that's what I yelled to the school, or atleast the ones standing around yelling "Fight! Fight!"

But news travels fast. And that's all I needed to know, that Liam would no longer be popular, he'd be degraded to the ex-gays.

"LIAM USED TO BE GAY! He told me!" I had screamed at the top of my lungs. Nobody was yelling "Fight!" It was all quiet. I looked at Liam.

Everything went in slow-motion from there.

Liam's face contorted with anger, and he threw himself at me. He threw the first punch, which I ducked. He rounded up his arm for a second one, which was where I acted. I hit his face, and his arm dropped. He held his face in between his hands, and blood seeped through his fingers.

And then he fell. Blacked out.

Someone grabbed my arm, dragging me from the mob of kids surrounding Liam.

"She did it!" "She knocked him out!" "Liam's not gay. I had sex with him a month ago."

 Mrs. Prickk's face nose-to-nose with mine. "Riley, Riley, Riley. Should've learned your leason, Riley. Riley, Riley."

"Riley. Riley!"

I opened my eyes. Luke was right in my face where Mrs. Prickk should've been.

"Riley!" he said.

"What--what are you doing in my house?" I said, embaressed he had found me passed out in my room with only skinny jeans and a tight black tee shirt on.

He smiled aridly. "Front door was unlocked."

Aunt Tracy was at work. She always was. From five in the morning to midnight, I had the house to myself.

"No it wasn't. How'd you get in, Luke?"

He sighed and looked out my window. "You'll find out soon enough. Come on. Let's go get dinner or something."

I looked at my watch. 6:30. "Can't. Have a date."

He looked defensive. "With who?"

"Oliver."

"No way. I though me and him were friends!"

"What about Izzy?" I asked tiredly. I hated this defensive boyfriend talk. Especially when he wasn't even my boyfriend.

He looked uncomfortable. "We broke up. Found out she had been cheating on me."

"With...?" I asked. Izzy had seemed weirded out at the party.

"Um...Oliver," he said quickly. "You see, at one time she was dating both of us. When she was around Oliver last night, he was about to ask why she was glued to my arm. Before he did, she ran away with me. Her friend told me she was being a slut."

"Oliver? No way. You're totally making this up."

"Nope. Izzy's a whore. So come on. Dinner?"

I couldn't. I really couldn't.

I mean...there was Oliver...but Luke...

And Jinxx. Oh, God, Jinxx...he was just so hot.....

A car horn beeped outside. Luke looked annoyed. Damn, the boy was familiar.

Wait. Black hair. Dark eyes. Confident look. Ohmigod. Oh. My. Fucking. God.

"Luke! Luke, you--you--" I broke down sobbing.

How could I have been so retarded? It was so fucking obvious! The signs were everywhere!

Jinxx's POV:

She was in danger. So much danger it hurt.

Tears. Pain. Loss.

Luke.

She knew. He--told her? There was no way she could've figured it out. He covered it up too much. And I couldn't just talk to her myself. I...can't. I don't need this.

I don't need her. I'll never need her.

But I need to save her. If he does what I think he's doing...

He'll be careless. Rough. I need to save her.

Because if I don't...

No one can.

Riley's POV:

"Luke...Should I even...call you that? Why didn't you--why didn't you tell me?" I sobbed.

"Riley...I couldn't," he whispered. "Do you know--who I am?"

"I've never forgotten you, Austin."
