Eunomia

Chapter 30 "Sarcastic comments and bad jokes"

~Bryony~

I was getting bored as fuck in class, the beach party was two weekends ago and since Sebastian and I had that talk after he punched Quentin we haven't talked much, we had some classes together but I could notice the difference between when he didn't stop saying sarcastic comments to steal a smile from me and now, that I hopefully heard him murmuring some nonsense. Let's be clear, seeing Quentin getting punch by Sebastian will be one of my favorite fantasies for a long time... The problem was he knew what happened in the room at the end of the hallway on the second floor, thing he shouldn't.

Sebastian was annoyed because of what happened with Quentin and I because of what he did with Beverly, he disappointed me, from all the girl in the town he had to choose the worst of all superficial bitches. Anyway, I didn't care.

Many things keep me awake at night but Sebastian's sex life isn't one of them.

"Has he apologized yet?" Sebastian asked me on a Wednesday during chemistry class. He didn't show much interest in me, he didn't even look at me.

"You already know the answer to that question..." I replied with the same interest as him.

The teacher had put a documentary about metals and other elements of the periodic table so all the class was focused on it. I just heard the voice of the dude of the documentary do I wanted to break the silence between Sebastian and I again.

"Did you read last week newspaper...?" I tried to bring up a conversation topic.

"Yes."

"Did you saw you appeared on the cover?"

"Yes."

This conversation was ridiculous, since when I fought for his attention? Since when was I the one asking questions and him answering with monosyllables?

I thought it would be another two weeks until we shared more than four sentences in a row, but Sebastian turned around and opened his backpack, he took something from it I couldn't tell until he put it on the table. I giggled.

"I think I look pretty handsome..." He flattered himself sarcastically with his usual smile in his lips. "I mean, maybe teenagers aren't as fast for studying, but for taking photos? Everybody is fast as fuck." Sebastian joked. I agreed with him, that was the arrogant vampire who killed me with sarcastic comments and black humor jokes.

"I don't think your looks matter when they say the things they say about you..."

"What do they say about me?" he teased.

I smiled, thinking about what answer I may give. No mattered how much I thought about it, I knew Sebastian was going to take it as a compliment.

"You punched the school's Golden Boy, everybody is against you." I remembered him. Maybe Quentin's pride was a little damaged but not as much as Sebastian's reputation right now.

"The fact you think I care..." He laughed. "That everybody that hates me so much should reconsider their believes..." Sebastian left the sentence in the air and I thanked he didn't bring out what happened in that room. "Anyway, it's obvious I won, so who cares? I humiliated Quickly with this cover." He grabbed the newspaper and put it at his eye level, narrowed them a little, pretending concentration and spoke again. "Yes... I will frame this newspaper."

We both laughed, I more than him, Sebastian only smiled showing his teeth, I didn't understand why was he looking at me so deeply but before I could find out the teacher talked. I guess I laughed louder than the dude of the documentary talked.

"Mrs. Smith and Mr Edevane." The teacher told us to shut up. Some students turned around to us to later gossip but it didn't annoyed me.

The fact that they think I care...
