Sophia

Chapter ten

Sophia

I don't even know what happened. It happened so fast.

~flashback; 10 minutes ago~

Brianna is blabbing on about the most random and boring things.

I don't want to be here. I want to be at home, in my comfy bed in comfy clothes watching Arcane with Zachary. But no because we just had to come to homecoming.

I want to be asleep in bed with my— boyfriend? What do I call him? Guy I just made out with not even an hour ago? I want him to be my boyfriend. I want that more than anything. Ok going home is my number one want, but he is definitely number two.

Brianna is still talking. And I thought I talked a lot.

Zach used to hate when I talked.

What if he still does? What if he was just pretending to like me so that he could kiss me? Oh god what if I played into his misogynistic games when I allowed him to kiss me?

What if I'm just another girl to him?

I was cut out of my thoughts when Brianna told me, "looks like someone wants to talk to you." She said while smirking. I soon felt a presence behind me.

Thinking it was Zach, I smiled at her as she walked away and turned around.

I was wrong.

When I turned around, I saw Jake. He didn't look nearly as good as Zach did. Jake had on a full blue suit that someone clearly told him looked good as a joke. Not only that but he had on a red freaking bow tie. Who the hell let him out of the house looking like this? He looks like a blue Peewee Herman.

"Hey." He slurred. He's drunk. Great. "I need to talk to you." He said, grabbing my arm and pulling me into the main building. I didn't fight him.

What would happen?

He kept on pulling me until we were in a hallway. He is beyond wasted. I can smell the alcohol on him. And I don't like it.

"Why are you here with him?" He asked pointing theatrically to the door. It's like he thinks this is the notebook. "We both know we belong together Sophia! Why are you fighting it?" He slurred walking towards me, pining me against the wall.

Why dose everyone enjoy pinning me against walls?

"Jake your drunk. I really suggest you step back before you do something you regret." I said trying to move from his grasp.

"Come on sophia! Stop being stupid!" He slurred. I continued to try and get away from him when he did something he will really regret.

I felt a sudden impact of my cheekbone causing me to turn my head. He really is stupid.

My dad's in the FBI. I've been learning how to fight since I was three.

"Damn it sophia why do you have to be difficult?" He asked almost crying. One thing to know about Jake that I learned freshman year is that he is a sad drunk.
