Jealousy

chapter 11

After the day that Spencer came out things haven't been so smooth. Not just for Spencer and Owen but for Enzo and I. We got into a mini fight about the killers and I argued that they aren't bad and he argued that they were. If I'm being completely honest I've only really talked to one of them, Dean, and if I have to argue for the whole group because of Dean then so be it.

Me and Enzo are kind of on good terms now. He apologized but he still tries to keep me away from them. I don't say anything or do anything when he does because if I'm being totally honest I actually like how protective he is of me but at the same time I don't need someone to tell me who I can or cannot hang out with.

It's the next day and I wake up by my alarm. I open my eyes slowly then sit up. My door opens slightly by my dog,Teddy. I smile and pat the bed for him to jump on. He does so and I hold him in my lap. He snuggles his face into my chest. I wonder if this is how Enzo feels when he's holding me. Happy and at peace like I am with him.

I brush the feeling off and ignore the thought of Enzo for the rest of the morning. I walk in my bathroom with a smile. I think todays gonna be different.

I brush my teeth and wash my face and tie my hair up in a ponytail with two curly strands hanging down on each side. I pull on my black cargo pants then pull my white crop top over my head and slide it down. I grab my bag, phone, then headphones and headed out my bedroom door.

"Hi, Mom!" I say with a smile and kiss her on the cheek as she pours herself some coffee. "Good morning, my daughter. And why are you so happy?" She ask putting the coffee kettle back. She leans against the island and I sit down with my big, happy, stupid grin. I lay my elbows on the table.

"I just think today is gonna be really fun." I tell her. "Well I hope your day is fun." She turns around stares at the fridge door. "At least have a better one then mine." She mumbles under her breath. I know she's talking about the thing withy dad but I'm to happy to care.

"Alright well Owen's here. Love you!" I say and basically skip out the front door. I get in the backseat with Enzo. "Someones in a good mood." Owen points out. I roll my eyes playfully. "Good morning, princess." He says. I smile and grab his face then smash our lips together.

I let go after a few moments. He looks at me, shocked. "This does not mean we're dating." I say with a little grin. He doesn't take his eyes off of me the whole ride to school.

"Here." Spencer says grabbing my attention. He hands me a joint as we walk in school and I smile. I was about to take a puff but Enzo takes it out my hand.

"No." He says. "Pleaseee," I whine, "Enzooooo." I whine even more. "I've been so good I think I deserve that weed." I say placing my hand on his chest. His eyes evert to my hand and I snatch the joint from his making him look at me flabbergasted. Before he could take it away I move to the other side of Spencer.

Spencer lights it for me and I breath in then out. "Ahh." I sigh in relief. The joy smoking gives me. I could feel Enzos eyes death staring me but I simply don't care.

We enter the school building to quickly and I had to put out my joy. I hate my life. I think as I make my way to my locker. Owen decided to go with Spencer so they could "talk". More like make out. Enzo went to his locker leaving me all by myself at my locker.

I put my books I don't need in my locker and take the ones I need out. I close my locker and turn around only to get startled by none other then Caleb. "My bad." He says. "No your fine." I say back. I was about to walk away but he calls out for me so I turn to him.

"Yes?" I ask.

"Since we locker buddies minus well get to know each otha." He says.

"Oh well I'm Rue." I say with a somewhat smile on my face.

He smirks, "Caleb." He says. "You and that guy. You to togetha?" He ask.

"Enzo and I? I mean..no." I hold my books tighter. I probably shouldn't have worn a crop top..I think as fear takes over my body.

I'm scared. The feeling I haven't felt in a while comes back. His hand wrapped around my wrists. His lips against mine. The lust I felt melting off of him. Please..

I feel a light touch on my shoulder. I look up seeing Caleb..smiling? He can smile? Huh.. "I was just asking you a question." He says softly. Under all that hood act he really is a gentleman. My smile reappears and I reconnect eyes with him.

He had dark, brown, brownie eyes. How mesmerizing. He breaks eye contact and steps back to his locker leaving me to look at his back. "I can tell someone touched you. It ain't right but what can you do? Just be..careful." He tells me. I pause. Be careful. My smile gets wider. "Right." I say before heading to class. God must really love me.

Time skip and it's already lunchtime. Some of Spencers and Enzos friends left and when I mean some I mean all. "They're all a bunch of assholes." Owen says crossing his arms as we sit in the back corner of the lunchroom. "It's fine. I mean I needed a new image and you gave me that by encouraging me," more like threatening him to break up, "to come out. Plus no one hasn't said anything to our faces." Spencer finishes. Owens smile reappears. "Yeah." He agrees.

"What's up with you and Caleb, Rue?" Owen ask me. My eyes go wide and meet with Enzos confused ones. "What?" He ask. "After me and Spence talked he walked me to my locker but we stopped to see you and Caleb talking. You look scared but then he put a hand on your shoulder and you were smiling in seconds." Owen explains. I glare at him and once he got the message he sends me back an apologetic look. I roll my eyes.

I look at Enzo and he's taking it pretty well. "Caleb can suck my dick." He says really calmly while eating. Calm my ass. I roll my eyes and they roll to make eye contact with, of course, Caleb. He smiles and waves. I smile and wave back making sure Enzo didn't witness this. If he did he wouldn't be so "calm". 

"What were you guys even talking about?" Spencer ask me. "Well he said we should get to know each other since we're "locker buddies"." I say.

"What the hell is a locker buddy?" Enzo ask.

"Me and Caleb I guess." I respond. "Can we stop talking about this now?"

"Yeah." Enzo agrees with me.

"Whatever." Owen says.

"Sorry but I just have one more question." Spencer says and I groan. "Whats up with you and Dean?" He ask ignoring my groans.

"We're in the same class." I tell them. I feel Enzos wrath growing. "Deans actually nit that bad." I say. I feel Enzos eyes on me. I turn to him. "Dean said he liked my eyes" I turn to Owen and Spencer, "and my hair. Well he said my hair compliments my face shape." I say.

"Your not like catching feelings..right?" Owen ask.

"No. I just like how nice he is to me." I say.

They don't say anything but give me head nods telling me that they don't really care anymore. "You know what I need?" They all turn their attention to me. "A girl best friend. You know one who won't stab you in the back." I say.

"A girl in the group actually sounds nice." Owen says.

After lunch was over we returned to our classes which we all I had different ones. I believe I have this class with Zoey.

I walk in class to see Zoey already there. I don't say anything I just sit in the back where I always sit. There's another kid in the class and if I'm correct then that kid is Neveah, one of the killers.

She comes up to me and sits next to me. I turn to her. "Hey!" She says with a big smile plastered on her face. I give her a friendly smile and say, "Hi."

"So I saw you talking to Caleb and Dean said you guys talked so I just wanted to know what the hype was about you." She says.

Was she trying to be nice or mean? "I mean me and Dean are just in the same class and Caleb and I are.." Locker buddies? "locker buddies." I say.

She nods. "Well your not that bad." She says.

"Right.." I turn back to the window as the bell rings and kids start rushing into the class.

Wait.. Dean talked about me? I think finally realizing.
