Revenge Tastes Sweeter [SALTBURN FANFICTION]

23.

Y-n Pov

"What did you say?" I whispered in a low voice. Eddie discretely looked around the hallway before answering my question.

"I told them that Mason made a big purchase from me before school ended for the summer."

"And what did she say?" I nervously grip onto my textbook as I wait for his answer. Eddie tilts his head to the side as he lets out a quiet sigh.

"Not much. Her brows just raised high, like she was surprised."

Or suspicious.

Was she on to us?

Eddie gently grabs onto my shoulder snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Don't worry, Y-n, she bought the story."

I smile at the redhead boy in front of me. Eddie's eyes widen as he looks behind me, "Incoming." He blurts out as he quickly rushes away from me.

My stomach plummets to the ground as I come face to face with Farleighs wary expression.

"Where you just talking to Eddie Granger?" He questions.

I laugh awkwardly, "He wanted me to sign some kind of petition." Farleigh rolls his eyes at my words.

"He's such a freak."

"What do you mean by that?" I can't help but get curious by Farleighs comment.

"Just that he had this weird obsession over Felix. Things got pretty ugly—-" before Farleigh could say anything more Felix along with Evie made their way towards us.

"Hey, we missed you for breakfast." Felix's tender voice fills the atmosphere. I smile at his comment.

"Yeah sorry, I had a late night so I kind of slept in." I look over at Farleigh as a taunting laugh leaves his mouth. My brows furrow as I'm confused by his reaction. Farleigh bites his bottom lip as he moves my hair to the side with one of his pens.

"You naughty girl." He teases. Felix's cheeks turn a bright pink as he stares at my exposed neck.

Oh shit.

I'm quick to cover the mark with my hand. I had completely forgotten to conceal that this morning.

Evie looks like shes about to explode as she looks over at her blushing boyfriend.

"Who's the lucky boy?" Farleigh wiggles his brows at me. I don't answer him as I rush down the hallway towards the girls restroom.

I look into the mirror catching a glimpse of the dark purple hickey on my neck.

Bloody hell Oliver.

I sigh with relief as I find a handy bandaid in my school bag. Carefully, I place it over the mark. I fix my hair as I try to conceal the obvious bandaid against my neck.

I open the door, catching his full attention.

Felix smirks as he leans against the wall behind him. He waits patiently in front of the girls restroom. I don't say anything as he approaches me.

His long fingers press gently against the bandaid, "I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was sucking so hard against your skin."

I smirk.

"Only, this wasn't your doing Felix. So don't worry about it." Felix widens his eyes as my words catch him by surprise.

"You're seeing someone??" Ranging jealousy fills his voice.
