Dysphoria

Chapter Fifteen

Monday arrived sooner than I wanted it to. No one at school knew about what I went through and I had to keep that act up.

I got dressed for school but today I wanted to look fierce. Like I had a suit of armor on. Untouchable.

I wore a black silk cami top with lace around the edges. A dark green leather mini skirt, black heeled boots that came to my knee and picked one of my designer bags.

Nothing says you don't wanna fuck with me like bringing a $2,000 black leather Gucci Dionysus to a public school.

I had black sunglasses to block out the beating sun as I grabbed my keys and headed down the drive way.

Nate was parked blocking my Audi.

"Jump in."

"No Nate. Move your stupid truck so I can back out." I say shooing him with my hand.

"I'm not moving unless you come with me."

"You'll make us both late, just go." I could feel a migraine starting behind my left eyeball.

"Why won't you come to school with me?" He grins.

"Because! If people see me jump out of your truck they'll treat me like you own me." I say, growing frustrated with his stubbornness.

"Would that be such a bad thing?"

"Yes. It would." I check the time. Fuck, I literally had 12 minutes before first bell.

"Hurry up Gordon, you're going to make me late." His voice is bored, like he knows I'll inevitably cave.

I stomp down the driveway to his truck trying to ignore how smug he looked as I attempted to get into his truck wearing a tight leather mini skirt.

"Just jump." He leaned over to pull me in.

"I fucking can't Nate! I'm 5 foot 3 inches and my legs can't stretch in this skirt!" I snap at him really wishing I could punch him in the dick and mouth at the same time.

I looked up and down the street, not seeing anyone obvious I pulled up the skirt so it rose up my hips, exposing my ass cheeks enough to stretch my legs up into the truck.

I huffed in annoyance pulling my skirt down, waiting for him to start the engine. "Can we fucking go?? Please?"

"Sure." He puts his foot down in the pedal. "Red is a good color on you by the way."

"This is why I can't stand you. I didn't invite you to look at my underwear Nathaniel." I crossed my legs angrily.

We got to the school parking lot and I couldn't get away from him fast enough.

"Come find me when you want a ride home later." He winks and strolls off. Asshole.

I sat down beside Kat and Maddy in first period.

"Hey bitch. You look hot. Where ya been?" Maddy asked filing a nail.

I decided being half honest was the best option. "I did some bad coke on Thursday night and had a weird reaction." They seemed to accept this excuse without a question.

"I took an adderall one time and I didn't sleep for four days." Maddy said completely matter of fact.

"Damn. That's like my worst nightmare. I would rather die than miss out on sleep." I reply.

"I like your choker Kat." I smiled at her.

"Oh really? You don't think it's too much?" She touched it self consciously.
