I've Become The School Delinquent's Lover

2 | Acceptance

Everything is still a bit hectic after the whole spectacle that Jason Evergreen had caused. It's literally what every student of this school is talking about. Even the teachers gossip amongst themselves.

I'm still processing what the fuck just happened. I'm now back in the classroom, still clutching the bouquet and chocolates in hand.

Although I'm quite troubled at my current situation, I find it hard to resist eating the chocolate. Deciding to at least eat it during recess.

When recess does eventually come, I gently open the small box, revealing the aforementioned chocolate within. I plop one into my mouth, and the moment it melts in my tongue I'm immediately hit with the rich flavor of cocoa.

"This is heavenly~" I muttered to myself, not wanting others to hear me.

"Aren't you enjoying those a little too much?"Jake is now looking at me, questioning my very being.

"Can't really resist when it comes to chocolate, and you know it." I tell him while bringing another piece to my mouth. So good~

"Whatever dude. Anyway, what do you plan to do with him? You can't exactly stay with a Delinquent. What if he hurts you or plays with your heart?"

"I know it's bad, but I can't really break up with him. He'll kick my ass for sure. I mean have you seen him? He towers over me, and he can very easily knock me the fuck out."

"Even still, you have to find a way to end it. I don't know why he's taken an interest in you, but I have a bad feeling about him. Rumor has it that he eats people. So he's bad news."

"But I'd be too scared to even confront him about it." Jake gives me a look of concern and I feign a smile.

"Ok Fine! I'll at least try to tell him."

"Good. If he beats you up, I can always drag your mangled body to the infirmary" Jake says jokingly, and I give him a friendly punch on his arm.

The rest of recess is mostly just me answering the occasional questions of my classmates, along with eating more of the chocolate. The questions were pretty much what I expected, like "How long have you known Jason?" Or "What's he like?" And "Why did he choose you?"

I shut them down, saying that I don't know him at all, and that got them to somewhat lose interest. Thank god. The last thing I need right now is more attention.

Once recess is over, the next class flew by as fast as it came. Then the P.A announces that there will be a meeting and that all teachers must attend.

With the teachers being called in, the next class is vacant and we were left to our own devices, but asked to remain inside.

My classmates flock towards their friend groups, with Jake and I formulating a plan of action for my break up with Jason.

Speaking of the devil, I see Jason in the doorway of the classroom, scanning the room until he locks eyes with me. My eyes go wide and he begins to make his way to us.

I instinctively sit up straight, looking down at my feet. I hear his footsteps coming closer, with him stopping in front of me, his shoes opposite mine.

"Hey"

His tone is sharp, making me tense up. Slowly, I look up at him and see his cold eyes piercing right through me.

"uhm....y-yes?" I mustered up the courage to reply, trying to stop my shaking hands.

"Give me your lunch money. Now" I'm taken aback by his sudden command, doubling back as if I misheard him.
