"You're a bïtch, you know that?" I say to blue-eyes right after school as soon as she shuts her locker. Hell, I don't even know her name and she makes me want to scream at her and make out with her at the same time.
"So I've been told." she sighs looking bored as usual
"Is it so bad that all I wanted was to get to know you? Not sleep with you but actually get to know you?"
"Yes." she responds simply
"And why is that?"
"You are a nice guy, I am not a nice girl." I can't read her expression, it's just blank. I look into her eyes to see how's she's feeling, but I get nothing. This girl is unreadable. "You wan't to get to know me? I'm sorry but I don't date. I sleep around. I don't feel this thing called human emotion."
"Then why won't you sleep with me?" I ask boldly luring her into my trap
"Because you are a nice guy, I don't want to ruin you."
"So if you don't feel 'human emotion', then why do you care about how I will feel." She opens her mouth to say something but closes it immediately. In that split second of vulnerability, that moment where it looks like I've surprised her, I see her walls slowly crumble before my eyes and I see her for who she really is: a vulnerable, insecure confused girl who is afraid. I only see this side of her for a second before she snaps back to her usual self
"Because then you will fall in love with me and I don't want to deal with any stalkers this year." She says hesitantly; I obviously caught her off guard. "Goodbye Adam."
I watch her walk down the hall away from me and run a hand through my hair
"FÙCK!" I exclaim and angrily kick a locker. Why is she so damn stubborn?
"Man, you are wasting your time." I turn around to see a giant guy with freckles covering his entire face, and a thick american accent. He is obviously a jock because this guy looks like he works out every single second of his life. I quickly look down at my biceps that look like skinny twigs compared to his before I look back up.
"What do you mean?" I ask the guy in front of me who chuckles at my defensive attitude
"Audrey is a hot piece of ass, but she doesn't date. She screws literally anyone who asks."
"So she's like a prostitute?" I ask scrunching up my nose in disgust
"No man, she doesn't get payed. She just doesn't give a shįt about anything so she sleeps around." He shrugs "Trust me you're wasting your time. I've tried chasing her down but she doesn't want to be caught."
"What's her name?" I ask realizing I still don't know her name
"Audrey Hunter." he lets her name roll off his tongue as if they go way back. I can't help but feel jealous of the fact that I am talking to some guy who seems to be a little too friendly with the girl I've set my eyes on."Aren't you that dude from health class that gave that sappy speech about how not all guys want just sex?"
"Yeah that's me." I scratch the back of my head "Look if you are gonna call me gay go ahead but I meant what I said."
"Gay? Dude, you are gonna get laid this week." he yells slapping my back like a proud father to a son. "Adam, right? I'm Luke and don't fūcking call me Lucas or else I will bash your head against the floor." he ruffles my hair like I'm a kid which makes me feel like bashing my own head against the floor. "Dude, every girl in school is like in love with that whipped-ass speech you gave in front of that druggie teacher and the class."
"Really?" I ask, actually feeling surprised. I wasn't saying any of that to be the new school heartthrob, I just said that stuff because Audrey was pissing me off.
"Yeah man, have you heard about the party this Friday?" Luke smiles as if we are old friends which makes me kind of uncomfortable.
"I was going to go with Audrey but she's really pissing me off and she probably doesn't even want to go with me after that stupid speech I made in class. I'm probably to 'lame' to be seen near her now. I don't know what came over me, mate, she's just so beautiful"
"Yeah, man, she's hot. She's got a killer body too. But believe me when I say she's messed up. She is too emotionally damaged and really doesn't do relationships. She's a good fúck though." I roll my eyes at Lucas because he's speaking about her as if she's a whore. I mean, I guess you could call her a slut because she sleeps around but like he said, she's obviously emotionally damaged, and this Lucas kid is disrespecting her.
"Whatever man, I'm going to lunch" I announce before walking away and spotting Audrey smoking a cigarette just around the corner of where I had my conversation with Luke. She drops the cigarette to the floor and stomps her foot over it to put it out with a smirk plastered on her face. She then steps towards me and blows smoke in my face which leaves me unfazed, seeing as I am too a smoker. I don't know if it was an intimidation thing, or if she just wanted to let me know that she heard the entire conversation. Maybe she's just trying to give me lung cancer. She turns to walk away but I grab her wrist and pull her towards me. We look at each other so intensely, I think I see fear hiding behind her blue eyes. I lean in and whisper ever so softly into her ear: "slut."
