Opposites Attract

Ch. 4 Contract

Josh's POV:

To be honest, I don't like this girl. She hates me too and she punched me in the face AND tried to steal from me. But it seems her family is better than mine. Her brother pays attention to her while my own dad can't.

Anyways, I'm about to fall back asleep because I woke up early as hell on a Saturday morning but I get a text. It was from my girlfriend, Peyton. I smile. Wonder what she sent me at 7 in the fucking morning.

I open the text and all it says is this.

P: Hi

Me: Hello ml

P: Um I'm really sorry but, we're over.

My heart stops.

Me: What

P: yeah there's someone else and I'm super sorry

I close out of the texting app. My eyes still in shock. And I just....lay there. For 4 hours I just layed there thinking about my times with Peyton. Oh fuck. She doesn't love me anymore.

I put on sweats and my favorite sad movie. All I heard from someone today was just my dad telling goodbye at the door and hearing it shut.
This is the worst day ever. Until I get an idea.
When Peyton saw me walking over to Elise she got really jealous and upset. So if I pretend to like Elise, Peyton will want me back. Let's fucking go.

I walk downtown to a gas stations and hear a familiar voice. "Ah yes just these please." I turn to see Elise at the register. When she finished buying her stuff, I walk up to her. "What do you know, she has manners." She turns around startled but when she saw me her eyes just deepened into a death stare. "What do you want." I shrug. "To make a deal with you." She raises her eyebrows and chuckles. "What kinda deal." I smirk. "One that involves you dating me." Her eyes widen and she looks up. "What."
"Yep. You gotta date me." She laughs and shakes her head. "Over my dead body." When she tries to walk off I grab her arm. "Listen I gotta make my ex jealous and she happens to not like you." "That's not my problem."
"Please."
"No."
"Pleaaaaaase."
"No."
"I'll pay you."
She stops and stares at me. "How much?"
I think about it. "550 a week." Her eyes widen.
"5-550?" I nod. "Holy shit dude that's a lot."
I nod again. "I will also not mention to the police that you tried to steal from me." She nods. "Valid." "You in?" "Most definitely."

About an hour later she shows up again with a pen and paper. "What's this for?" I ask.
"Our contract. We're supposed to have rules."
I roll my eyes. "Really." She nods. "Yes really," She sets the paper down. "Anyway let's go over them." I shrug and walk over.

#1: No kissing w/out permission
#2: touching is aloud WITH permission
(unless Peyton's there)
#3: Don't tell ANYONE
#4:Sit with friends
#5:Pay good and act good
#6:Nicknames are allowed
I smile reading it. "I think that this is a very good contract." She smirks. "Thank you."
Then I turn her around. "But I don't like the rule no kissing w/out permission. It's easy."
She was about to say something when pulled her in and kissed her slightly. She backs away and freezes. "That's why because that's the reaction you'll get." She says before wiping her mouth. I smirk and she looks at me before slapping me gently. "Rule #7......." She says while writing down stuff. "I'm aloud to smack you when you do dumb shit." I smile. "Now I think that it's perfect." I roll my eyes sarcastically. Then she smacks me again. "That wasn't even dumb shit!" I say laughing and putting my hand up to my face. "Everything you do is dumb shit." I smile. I drop my hand from my face, and grab her bags. "What're you doing." She asks me. " Being a gentleman."
She rolls her eyes. "I can take my groceries to my own car thank you." I smirk. "Your welcome." She looks at me and waves. "Ok you can leave now." I put my hands up mocking surrender while walking away. "Goodbye Hobbes." She rolls her eyes smiling."
"See ya Rider."
