Dark Beauty

Chapter 34

We didn't get in much trouble. We said we went to help Peter, and knowing everything he went through in the last months, they let it pass.

During class I didn't pay any attention, I kept thinking about Peter and Jessica and the way they loved each other, it seemed as they knew each other since they were little kids. Peter had even sung for her. Would Jake one day love me like that? Even though this type of love was unusual for our age, I think I loved him the same way Jessica loved her boyfriend. I never loved someone so much as I loved Jake. He said he loved me, and he seemed so sincere, not all boys are jerks like Lucas. Thinking about Lucas I needed a new lab partner, I won't stand sitting next to Lucas for the rest of the school year. I would ask the teacher if I could go with Avery. She was like becoming one of my best friends and until chemistry, the teacher would know that Lucas and I had broken up and that I was with Jake, I think she would understand.

I literally didn't do anything in class before I knew it the class had already finished.

After another class doing nothing, I could finally go to lunch, I was starving. The food was good today, normally it wasn't, and I think that today was my lucky day. Or it may be that when you are happy everything looks tasty.

'Give me your tray, I'll take it to the table while you get something to drink.' Jake said, and then he kissed me in the cheek and left with my tray.

I went smiling like an idiot until the place where the drinks were.

'Wow, you found yourself a boyfriend in less than twenty-four hours.' I didn't even need to turn around to know it was Lucas.

'And why does that bother to you? You said I didn't mean anything to you.' I said not even turning around.

'Yeah, you don't mean anything, but still very fast for a stupid bitch like you.' He spat.

This time I turned around to face him. I was pissed who that guy thought he was to come up to me and say these stuff? He was the one who broke up with me, left me alone and humiliated me.

'How did this happen, were you already dating him behind my back?' Lucas asked. He was extremely close to me now.

'Of course not and it's none of your business and how you already know, you are a jerk.' I said throwing the juice that I was holding on his face. I turned to leave but Lucas caught my arm, his face was red with anger, I think no one had ever thrown juice at him. It was dripping down his face. His shirt was also all wet.

'You will wish to never have done that.' He said shaking me.

'Leave me alone, you're hurting me.' I cried.

'Really?' he said tightening his grip. 'Are you just dating that weirdo, to make me jealous? Just so you know it won't work, I never loved you remember, but if you want a last kiss...' he said. He started kissing my neck and then my collar bone, and his other hand was holding me tightly to his body. Orange juice from his face dripped down my dress. He hands slid down to my thigh and started going up under my dress. 'You never gave me what I wanted that day on my sofa.' He whispered.

Why was he doing this, he didn't even like me. I think he just likes to play with me. I tried to say something, but my throat was all dry and sticky and all that came out was an almost soundless stop. I tried to push him away, but he was too strong.

No one could see what was happening because where you got your drink was on the end of the cafeteria, behind a wall.

'What's the matter babe?' he said as he continued. 'You loved it when I kissed you.'
