Torn Between Two Lovers- Reed Deming Fanfiction

Torn Between Two Lovers- Part 7

Taylor's POV

"You okay? That party didn't end too well." Krista asked upon seeing me in class.

I sighed an unsure sigh. "I hope so, but I'm no-" The final bell signaling class to start rang.

I took my spot, just as Reed came through the doorway.

As he brushed past me, I could almost feel the awkward tension between us.

Lucky for me- not-, he had to sit next to me the entire algebra class.

I tried my best to refrain from any sort of contact with him.

Eventually, after over a grueling hour, class was dismissed.

"Look." he said immediately as the bell rang. "You have to forgive me."

"I have to? Why is that?"

"Because I need you in my life."

I couldn't understand how one second he could be a total sweetheart and the next he transformed into a womanizing bad-boy.

"So you go on the track of lip-raping me, and I'm supposed to just forgive you in a second?"

"Yes, trust me."

"I've heard that plenty of times, and it turned out that I shouldn't have trusted you."

"This time you have to. I'll prove it to you. Meet me at the movie theater at," he glanced at his IPhone clock, "at 5:20, on me. You'll enjoy yourself. Deal?"

Thoughts began swirling through my head.

What if something worse happens and we lose everything we have? What if he turns out to be the opposite of what I expected? What if I do fall in love with him.

"Fine."

I swung the door open to the theatre, finding Reed eagerly waiting for me. His eyes lit up immediately when I walked through the door.

"You ready?"

"I guess. What movie are we seeing?"

"Oz, The Great and Powerful!" He said in probably the corniest voice possible.

"Why such a stupid movie?"

"So you have more time to focus on us."

The whole movie, Reed's eyes were glued on me. Not once did he even bother to check on the movie. His eyes would discretely dart back and forth between the thin wisps of hair that flew off of my I-didn't-even-try bun and small smirks that grew on my face due to corny jokes from the movie.

Jesus, his stare was getting awkward.

I whipped my head to the side, gently planting a kiss on his lips.

"What was that for?" He tried his best to seem confused, but he was obviously very pleased.

"I think I'm falling for you."
