Sickening Desire

8. See you tonight

(Aspen)

I spin around and see Theo pretending to look at something in the isle with a smirk on his face. "Are you stalking me or something? Why the fuck are you everywhere? " I snap at him. He chuckles "Get over yourself smurfette. Trust me when I say that no one would ever want to stalk you." "How bout you fuck off then." I say. "This is a public place dumbass, you don't own the store and I need to buy something. You know, from the fucking store." He snaps back at me with a mocking tone.

I roll my eyes, so much for him being nice and apologising. Asshole. I turn my back to him and quickly pay for the food I got. I'm walking through campus on my way back to the apartment when I see the school. I'm walking past a classroom window and I hear moaning, holy shit. Someone's fucking in a school. I laugh to myself at the thought. I walk closer while holding the bag of food in my right hand. I peek through but quickly look away when I see professor Carson and Brandon messing about together. Professor was giving him a handjob holy shit I think I'm gonna be sick. Bran and I have walked in on each other many times and it's never affected me before but knowing the situation... I feel sick. I can't even look at professor Carson when I'm in his class or walking through the halls. Ew.

I shake the thoughts out of my head and get back on track to my apartment. When I walk through I shut the door behind me and start unpacking the bad of food. I place some things in the fridge and some things in the freezer. I decide on something fast to make because I'm so hungry so I take out a frozen lasagna meal and shove it in the microwave. I go and get changed into light grey joggers and a fitted white top. I pair it with blue fluffy socks so my feet are warm and wait a few more seconds for my lasagna to be ready.

I hear the microwave ping and I take out my food and scoop it out onto a plate. I sit down on the couch and watch tv while eating my lasagna.

(A few hours later)

"Aspen wake up, Aspen!" I feel hands frantically gripping and shaking my body by my arms and my eyes fly open to see Brandon's worried face. I let out a huge breath of relief and place a hand over my heart to calm myself down. "You were having another nightmare." He says.

I look around and realise I'm still in the living room, lying down on the couch. I must have fell asleep after I finished eating my lasagna. He helps me up and takes me to my bed. I can see it's dark outside now which tells me Brandon's been out all night. "How was your day?" I ask while yawning and curling up on my bed with the covers pulled high up. "It was good. Just get some rest okay? It's really late and we have another exam tomorrow." I groan loudly at the reminder school and exams exist. He laughs and gives my hand a slight wheeze before walking out and softly closing my door behind him.

My eyes flutter closed and my breaths deepen as I fall back into sleep.

(3 days later)

I'm walking down the school halls when I feel a heaving arm wrap around my shoulders, I turn my head with a grimace at the sight of Kyle touching me and being so close to me. "Yo baby you coming tonight?" I sigh and push his arm off my shoulder to which he frowns at but smiles when I say "yeah." He's having another house party and who am I to turn down good alcohol and a decent fuck?

So when he asked me about it yesterday I teased him and said I'd think about it, but I knew I would go. Even if I have to go alone again because Brandon wants to fuck a forty year old. He puts his arm round me again and brings me closer to his body as we walk in sync to our last class of the day, I'm too tired to care that his arm is still around me so I just let him flirt with me as we walk through the door to our classroom. We're not even doing anything today we literally just have to sit here for a whole hour and listen to our social studies professor talk and talk and talk.

I go up the stairs to sit at the row at the very back in the corner so I can just go on my phone or sleep without anyone knowing. Its only when I get to the back row and take a seat when I realise Kyle is still following me and sits in the seat next to me. I sigh and slump down in my chair with pure exhaustion. Kyles signals someone walking through the door to come and sit next to us and my mood instantly drops even more when I see Theo walking up the stair to join us at the back. You've got to be fucking kidding me.

When Theo sees me he scoffs and turns to his friend "Why the fuck is she here?" he snaps. "Charming." I sigh, resisting the urge to roll my eyes at this fucker. Theo sits down next to Kyle so he's two seats away from me and Kyle leans over to Theo's ear to try and whisper his next sentence but because his ass is so loud I hear every quite word. "Chill out man I'm trying to get laid here." Theo leans away from his friend and I see his lips curl in disgust before turning his head and facing the front.

Kyle turn to me and we somehow start a conversation. We have to whisper so we don't get caught but I surprisingly find myself liking him more and more. I'm not stupid, I know he's only trying to get in my pants but like I said to Chase before, I'm not interested in a relationship and I don't want anything serious so why not have some fun with a pretty cute guy. He makes his flirting obvious and I'm not too ashamed to say that I flirt back. I haven't flirted with anyone or teased anyone since high school.

Kyles hand travels up to my thigh and squeezes it slightly to emphasise his flirting, I hear Theo's scoff once again which brings my eyes to his, "Problem?" I ask with an arched brow. He shakes his head and shrugs mockingly, "No no, just wondering if you two would care to stop eye fucking each other when there's other people around who don't wanna see it." He snaps. Kyle turns to face his dipshit friend, I assume to tell him to shut up and not ruin his chances with me, but an idea pops into my mind and I turn Kyle's head to face me and lean over to press my lips to his. Our eyes close and his hand moves to grip my hip while the other remains resting on my upper thigh. My hand plunges into his hair as our tongues brush against each other, with my free hand I lift it up in Theo's general direction and stick my middle finger up at him.

I hear Theo huff and mutter an "ew" so I smile into the kiss and pull away. Me and Kyle both sit back in our seats and I feel triumphant over the fact I've pissed the Theo Hughes off.

Class ends a little while later and as I'm packing up to go home and get ready for Kyles party he comes up to me and pecks my lips before whispering, "see you tonight sexy." I force myself to disguise my disgust with a smile and give him a reassuring nod. "Yeah see you." I reply as I walk away from Kyle and Theo. While I'm walking away I can practically feel Theo's gaze burning in the back of my head while Kyles is focused on my ass.

See you tonight Mr Hughes.
