"My point is-"I leaned back in my chair and crossed my legs on top of the desk.
"You're an idiot who thinks he's some hot catch that everyone wants."
He simply stared, and I stared back. He was the first to break the silence.
"I mean I don't know about everyone-"
He tilted his head and smiled, arrogance practically radiating from him. His tone had changed.
"-but it really seems like you do""Well I guess you're just stupid then."
I reached down to pick up my bag and leave, fueled with anger. I was tired of this. I just slapped him, and he's back to this already? Did he not learn a lesson? What was wrong with him.
I was too distracted by my anger to notice the feeling of breathing on my neck. I froze in place, a strange feeling coming over me. I felt him lean in to whisper."And I guess you, have a crush on me?"
He said it softly. In an almost seductive sort of tone. What on earth was he doing? Normally he just makes jokes about this kind of thing, but it felt different this time. I was in disbelief. It bothered me, why wasn't I immediately pushing him away like I normally would?
I could feel his eyes on me, tracing my face. I tried to breathe, regain composure because I knew I would have to look at him, and the second I did I would be stuck in place again and speechless. I hated that it was even something that could happen. I hated that he made me this way."Am I right, y/n? You, the preppy pretty girl from the cheer team, have a crush on me, troublemaker Eddie Munson?"
He said it slowly, leaving pauses between words. He was silent for a moment as if he were waiting for me to respond. Where was all of this coming from? I was too shocked to say anything. And when I didn't, he leaned in closer and I swear I could hear his heart beating.
"Or are you gonna deny it and keep playing games, darling?"
Why was this effecting me so much? I hated Eddie, I hated everything about him! I didn't think he was attractive or anything, so why did he have me in such a chokehold? What the hell was happening to me? Why was I like this? I hated him, I shouldn't be reacting this way.
He then backed away and put his hands in his pockets. He let out a chuckle as he walked towards the door, stopping at the door frame. He turned back to me as I was still a frazzled mess. He stared for a second or two."Maybe we'll never know though, after all I could just be 'an idiot that thinks he's some hot catch.'" Eddie winked and then swung around the corner.
I quickly snapped out of it then finished gathering my things. He was so annoying and confusing! Why did he think I liked him? I hated his guts. There was no way. But why didn't I stop him? I started getting upset with myself. I had just slapped him, why was I feeling like this? I took a deep breath.
I walked out of the room to see Eddie hadn't gone very far. Great. As soon as I had reached the middle of the hall he turned around and smiled. I didn't need any more of his shit right now. I was already out of it from what just happened, I didn't need another dosage."Have you come to finally tell me the truth?" He said with a knowing tone.
"No, cause it's not the truth. You're wrong so please just leave me be" I huffed.
