Not my type of guy

Chapter 8

I saw the hurt flash in his eyes and I instantly felt guilty. He clenched his fist tighter and turned away from me; clearly waiting for me to leave. "You should go Madeline." I am shocked because this is the first time he has used my real name and I didn't like that he wasn't calling me by his nicknames.

"I'm not going Xavier. I know you won't hurt me I'm sorry." I apologize and walk a little away. "No. You meant it, cause you're a bitch who thinks of me as an asshole who beats up girls. Yea I understand. Now get the fuck out of my sight."

That hit me hard. But this just gave me another reason to not like him. He called me a bitch for nothing. Without a word I stormed off. What the actual hell? I decide to brush this incident off and ignore him like he never came to our school in the first place. If anything he will probably get expelled for almost killing O'leary and his gang. This was way too much for me to handle for one day. I almost witnessed a death.

"Ms.Kvil? I'd like to sign out." She gave me a questioning look. "I'm not feeling well." She nodded and gave me the sign out sheet which I quickly signed myself out. I go to the first place I always think of when I need to be alone...the park. It's a quiet, nice place that I can think and make life decisions. But as I approach I see another figure sitting on the bench. The hair looked familiar which made me keep advancing to find out who.

Oh no. How did he find my safe place?

"Madeline?" His eyes staring at me softly.

I gulp and close my eyes for a second hoping he would go away but when my eyes open to my horror, he is still there. "Malachi." I say flatly and stare back but on my side there is not a soft stare. Slowly he gets up and walks towards me but I back up. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry Madeline and I don't know how I can make up for this. I would do anything for you to get back together with me. Anything." He pleaded and his beautiful eyes that I always loved were full of guilt.

I turn away and swallow a lump forming in my throat. "I can't. I just can't." All of a sudden he gets on his knees in front of me and takes my hands. "I love you! I love you so much Madeline Katrina Brooks. I'm sorry and I promise to never hurt you again! On my life. I promise to you." He begs with tears in his eyes. A tear rolls down my cheek and I get him to stand up.

"You hurt me."

I knew I wanted him back, at least a part of me did.

"Yes I did. I wish I could go back and change that. It was a stupid thing to do and everyday without you makes me hate myself even more. I want to be with you and no one else. Please believe me Madeline!"

I think about it for a minute and the thought of  Xavier's lips pops up in my head. Quickly I shake the thought of him out of my head and turn my attention back to  Malachi. "I believe you." Those three words in a way relieved me. I felt like it took a load off of my shoulders. Without another second to waste, he kisses me as if he's been longing for it for a long time.

"I love you so much Madeline."

Smiling I hug him and take in the familiar scent that I've been missing. "I missed you." I simply say and stay in his arms.

Next Day

"WHAT!? Excuse me? Repeat that right this minute missy!" Kaylie ranted.

I bite back a smile; ready to repeat myself again. "Me and Malachi fixed things." She frowns but I continue. "I decided since I gave you another chance, I should give him another too!"

Kaylie shakes her head in pure disagreement. "No no no! I am your best friend, so you were bound to forgive me sometime. But that asshole shouldn't have been forgiven..AT ALL! MADELEINE WHAT ARE YOU THINKING!" She sits with her arms crossed frowning deeply at me. Sighing I take a bite of my bacon sandwich. "Kaylie calm down! I missed him and this time I will be more watchful and careful. Plus how do you KNOW for sure that I was going to ever forgive you?" I send her an amused look.
