Hey, important note: Please read the authors note at the end for an even more important note XP
"You guys have to come!" I begged.
I was sitting beside Keelie in our fourth period Biology class. Everyone was abuzz about the party tonight. I was trying to convince Keelie that she and Caleb should come.
"I don't know Danny... I'm not really big on parties" Keelie said.
"I know, neither am I. That's why I want you guys to come, so I don't end up some loner in the corner who refuses to party" I complained.
Keelie considered for a moment, "I'll make you a deal: if you can convince Caleb to go, then I'll go. A tip though? He HATES parties."
"Of course..." I sighed, "fine, deal."
The blaring bell rang out.
"Hey you have my number now right?" Keelie questioned as we grabbed our bags and left the Biology room.
"Yeah" I nodded.
Keelie smiled evilly, "good, text me what Caleb says."
I pursed my lips, "will do."
She and Caleb were definitely coming if I had anything to say about it. I walked quickly down the hall. looking for my familiar brown haired, dimpled friend.
"Hey Idiot" a voice from behind me made me jump.
"Really Cole?" I whipped around, "is idiot your official nick name for me? Cause it really sucks."
Cole smirked, "I personally think it's quite fitting. That's not important right now though. What is important? Rule number one of how to flirt, you can't run around looking like a crazed hunting dog. In order for guys to flirt with you, they have to actually be willing to approach you first."
I scowled, "I do not look like a crazed hunting dog! I was just looking for-"
"Hmm, you shouldn't scowl either. Try smiling, you look cute when you smile. Or smirking, you look hot when you smirk. Although people might wonder what you have to be smirking about so I'd just stick with smiling if I were you" he muttered thoughtfully.
I stared at him, at a loss for words for a moment, "ummm... thanks for the advice. I have to go find Caleb..."
"Right. See you at home Idiot" Cole smirked, "and yeah I know, I look hot when I smirk too."
With that, Cole turned and started down the hall. I honestly didn't understand that boy. He'd gone from hating me to... however he felt about me now in only a few days. I shook my head and turned to scan the hallway, worried that Caleb had already left. I was about to give up when I heard a familiar laugh. Sure enough, the cute smile that accompanied the laugh had two perfect dimples.
"Caleb!" I called.
Caleb said a quick goodbye o the group he was with and came over to me.
"Hey Danny" he greeted.
"So Caleb, I know you're not really a big fan of parties cause Keelie told me, but I was wondering if you and Keelie could come so I'm not stuck in a house full of drunk strangers by myself" I explained hopefully.
"Yeah, Keels and I can totally come! Parties aren't that bad, I think Keelie exaggerated about how much I dislike them" Caleb beamed.
"Great, I'll see you tonight! I should probably go now though cause Ashton will be wondering where I am. Later!" I called over my shoulder.
As I pushed through the schools front doors I pulled out my phone. Clicking Keelie's contact, I shot her a text.
Me: You're in.
Keelie: Dang!
Me: LOL see you tonight!
I walked out to the parking lot, searching for Ashton's truck. Where the heck was it? My phone vibrated in my hand and I looked down. I frowned. It was a message from Ashton.
Ash: Hey, Cole told us about you getting a ride with Caleb, don't worry. See you back at home!
A ride with Caleb? Oh, Cole was so dead. I looked down as my phone went off yet again, this time signalling a message from an unknown number. My frown deepened and I opened it.
Unknown: Haha. Have fun walking home Idiot.
Cole! I thought in disgust. My fingers immediately began flying across the keyboard of my phone.
Me: You jerk! You big, stupid, dumb, annoying, imbecilic, arrogant jerk! It's such a long walk to the house from here! I swear to god, when I see you, I will kill you! You'd better watch your back, Smirk.
While waiting for Cole to reply, I quickly added him into my contacts under the nick name I'd just come up with; Smirk.
Smirk: Hmmm... it took you long enough to come up with a nick name for me. Smirk... I like it :D
Me: Really, after my whole rant, that's the only part you focus on? And damn... you're not supposed to like it.
Smirk: Um, obviously it's the only part I focused on... it was all about me. Anyways, if you really don't want to walk home, I guess I could give you a ride... for a price.
Me: ...What's the cost?
Smirk: I haven't decided yet. I'll get back to you on that one. Do you want the ride or not?
I sighed.
Me: yes.
Smirk: Great! In that case, turn around. Oh and remember, crazed hunting dog: not cute.
I slowly spun around. Ten yards away, standing as always with a stupid smirk plastered on his face, was the blond haired, god-like boy I'd grown to hate. The look on his face told me that he was just waiting for me to explode on him, that it amused him. So, I decided to do the exact opposite. Plastering a smirk of my own onto my face, I started towards him.
I waited until I was literally inches from him before going up on my toes, "when you least expect it. That's when I kill you."
This close, I could feel the shiver as it ran through him. My smirk grew wider. Without another word, I headed towards his car. It's on, I thought evilly.
