Academic Rivals Don't Fuck (BxB) [CURRENTLY REWRITING]

18. Tit For Tat - K

I LOVE YOU HOE - Odetari ft. 9lives

I was sitting in class when my phone buzzed. I took out my phone as I placed it on my lap, turning it on. On the screen flashed Ethan (Devils Version) as I read the text.

"Think I left smth at urs."

It said. Can't he use proper grammar? He takes literature classes with me, what's the laziness for?

"You barely even came with clothes, what did you leave behind?"

I asked even though it was probably just an excuse to come over again.

"I'll tell u after class."

I felt someone's stare at me as I looked to my right to see Ethan's face through the glass circle on the door. My eyes widened as I gestured for him to leave before the teacher saw us.

Is he stupid? Does he not have any classes to go to? How irresponsible. I sighed.

"What is he doing here?" David whispered in my ear. "Oh, he left-" I stopped myself before I'd expose myself.

"He said he needed some notes. For Spanish." I smiled, hoping he'd buy it. David nodded in response before giving Ethan a last look and turning to face the professor again.

I looked to the door and saw Ethan was still staring. Now, he didn't longer have the childish look on his face. He had rather a stern look, though, the corner of his lips were slightly curved.

It looked as if when you just witnessed your pet getting too close with someone else. A gaze of ownership.

I felt goosebumps as I tried to ignore the thoughts. What was that impression anyway?

I tried focusing on my classes as Ethan sat right outside, staring into my soul. I realized he'd get closer whenever David would talk to me, or ask for help, and then go back to sit at the desk.

What is trying to do? Has he finally lost it?

I sat in the class, playing with my pen as irritation took over me. I already told him not to mess with my studies, and here he is, right outside my classroom, distracting me.

Calculus was really important for me to become what I wanted to, and he's sabotaging it just like this. I can't let him go that easily.

My mind wandered back to our first encounter, him interrupting me in calculus's and me slapping him in front of the whole class.

And then to the first prank he pulled as the Ghost Face. Sure, I was a fan of Scream movies, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't get scared if I saw Ghost Face bust in to my room at night.

I remember being horrified that night, almost crying. Thank God I didn't. I wouldn't hear the end of it from Ethan if I ended up crying because of a silly prank he pulled.

Hmm, thinking about it. I haven't gotten back at him even once for pranking me so many times. All he got out of it was an agreement to be fuck buddies. I must've been insane to give in. But then again, it'll help me in the long run.

Fuck the long run plan, I need something to cool me off right now. The other plan, I can't continue it whenever. I need to wait for us to get closer, anyway.

I looked at the door again, getting met by Ethan's stupid grin. He waved at me before winking, making me flush and turn back around.

Yes, he does deserve something in return. What do they say? Tit for tat.

After having thought through my genius plan, I was sitting in front of my study desk in my room.
