All I want is you and me (A bad boy x Reader Romance)

Chapter Seven

Are you desperate? Possibly, as you wait outside the sociology classroom for the person you've gone out of your way to avoid since the beginning of this nightmare. However if you're going to get any semblance of closure...you'll need to speak with her.

Speaking of which, the door swings open as students bustle out, flooding the hallways as you plant your feet to try to stay put. This is the only chance you have of getting the answers you need. Just as the determination fills your head your vigor drains just as fast. The Queen bee walks-no she struts out of the classroom. Even in the packed hallways her path in undiverted, the students move out of her way as she cuts through the crowd. Desperate not to lose sight of her you feel your feet moving to catch up to her. However unlike the elegant diva you smack into nearly each body in your way, mumbling "sorry" under your breath with each person you smack into.

Finally your thumb and pointer finger pinch the fabric of a blazer, you stop and slowly look up. Cassie looks at you with...surprisingly little malice, but with much confusion. "Can i help you?" she asks raising an eyebrow, her glare like that of a queen to her lowly subject clinging to her coattails. "Um yes!" you spit out quickly dropping her sleeve and straightening up, "I need to talk to you can we go somewhere else?".

You see Cassie's face drop you can't tell whether she's annoyed or suprised, however she sighs "i apologized for the parking lot thing didn't i-". "This isn't about that" you interrupt looking her in the eyes, you see a look of intrigue cross her face.

"Alright then...come with me" she walks off and you follow her.

"Alright what is it?" she asks re-applying her mascara in the mirror as you watch her almost fascinated. Outside of her viper - like disposition she is undoubtedly...a beautiful girl. You can't help but take in her fluffy blonde locks cascading around her torso, her soft pink lips slightly parted as she works the mascara brush onto her eyelashes.

You finally breathe in, remembering why you were alone in the only one person bathroom in school with her. "I wanted to talk about you and...junior year" you explain, she pauses in the mirror. Slowly putting her mascara brush back into the tube "what about it?" she asks curtly, twisting the tube in her fingers.

"You and cooper-" "we're done" she quipped "but i still suggest you don't get involved with him Y/n, or in matters that are out of your comfort zone". Her side eyed glare was stony and cold, however as she turned towards you she breathed in, and it seemed as if she visibly melted it away. Cassie steps toward you slowly, carefully, either the way a human approaches a hurt animal, or the way a lioness approaches its prey. Finally she stops in front of you "y/n i'm not your enemy here, i'm simply letting you know what i wish i had known when i first stepped foot here".

Your eyes flick back up to hers, dark yet...genuine and gentle?

Has she always been like this?

Nevertheless you snap your head up "I'm not a vulnerable girl cassie,i'm here to get information". Cassie is silent as she breathes out slowly, her steely resilience seeming to break surprisingly quick.

She sighs flipping her hair over one shoulder twirling a delicate strand in her finger. "What do you want to know?" she asks her delicate pink lips, seeming increasingly succulent with each word that left them. You shake yourself from your thoughts, you have no idea what's been happening ever since last night. However all you can do it try to pry as much information as you can "is it true you were buying drugs from Ethan?".

Cassie's eyes widen and she drops the strand she was twirling around her finger. "We're done here" she says curtly as you feel your heart sink to your feet. She quickly grabs her bag and begins to walk towards the stall door. However your feet - and your need for answers are faster as your step in front of her. Your arms outstretched in a desperate attempt to keep her in place.
