Love me After (Book 1 of Strangers)

Chapter 20 - Taking it to the grave

I arranged some of my books into my locker before I close it shut. Once I did I slammed my head against my locker which caused some peoples attention to turn to me, but that was the least of my problems.

All my thoughts were all lingering over to what happened yesterday with Weston.

For the fact I nearly gave into him, and nearly got caught by my mom can probably give me sleepless nights.

But for the fact I had fallen for his touch was what was bound to give me insomnia. And what was worse was I couldn't deny the feeling of enjoying his touch.

It was like he made me a different person in that situation. It made him the last thing in my mind, waiting for him to dive deeper into these situations.

Ha, now I'm actually going insane.

Though I had the Weston problem, Isabel just decided to add in her's, yet half of the blame was still on me since I decided to interven in their argument. Great job Lewis.

As I took a deep sigh and lifted my head back up I winced out loud as I felt someones teeth sink into my neck.

I quickly drew away and when I turned I was met with Brent. "What the hell?! Are you a dog?!" I yelled stunned.

"Grrrrr!" He growled like one.

"What the fuck...?"

"You didn't respond to my text yesterday" He quickly says as he folds his arms over his chest and glares at me.

"What text—" And then I remembered the text Brent sent me before I got distracted by Weston and Isabel. "But still, why would you bite me?! Jeez, I feel as though there's a mark" I now retorted.

He glared at me before he then shrugged. "That's what you get for ignoring me. So what if it left a mark? You deserve it" He pouted like a child before turning away.

How does that even make sense?

I just groaned as I gently rubbed my neck before pulling my hand away. I then took out my phone from my pocket and went to camera to check if it left a mark, and lo and behold, it did.

I cursed at Brent as the thing still stung a bit. Now I actually believe this guy was a dog.

Thankfully for me the bite was more between my neck and shoulder so I could somewhat manage to cover it up with my hoodie. Today was a great day to wear a hoodie. I couldn't have people asking me if I got a hickey cause I don't think no one would actually believe me if I told them Brent was the cause of this.

They might even start spreading a rumour that Brent, and I slept together. Never in a million years.

Even if he turned to a woman, I'd save my chances.

Once I got the mark covered up with my hoodie I glared over at Brent. "Sorry I didn't text you yesterday. I was busy working on my project" I explained.

He stared at me. "Oh, that. The one with, Weston" He caught me off guard as he said Weston's name with such despise. "I don't know, but that guy has been giving me the wrong vibes lately. Don't get me wrong, he has personality, and is chill, but... During practice he always gives me these looks that makes a shiver run down my spine"

This is new. Aside from Brent and Weston taking the same biology and maths class, as well as being on the basketball team they have no other relationship together. So Weston suddenly making Brent uncomfortable is new. Though I felt like I was to blame

Anyways Brent doesn't even know Weston and I have been beefing all these years. Practically no one knows so no need to be spreading it like wildfire.

"Anyways, hope he hasn't been giving you any trouble? Though the rumors of him kissing a guy has died down I just want to know if you're okay" Brent explains as he ran his hand through his brunet hair.
