The Bet

Zero

    I sat in the back of the classroom, glaring at the back of Kaien's head.

Go ahead, ask me why I was doing such a thing. It's because Kaien tricked me! Again! Do you know how many times he had done this to me?? He loved doing this to me!

He turned around to look at me, as if feeling my glare on the back of his head, when the teacher wasn't looking and smirked.

"Do it." He mouthed, smirking again right after. I glared at him harder, passionate hate filling my vision.

The teacher had his back turned, so I stood up and did it.

I swiveled my hips seductively and silently, tugging on my uniform. I had attracted the attention of both the males and females in my middle school class. I continued with my motions, changing it up a bit and unbuttoning my jacket a bit. A few of the males had began snickering, which attracted the attention of the teacher.

"What's so funny?" He asked, glancing around the room.

I had quickly and quietly fallen onto the ground and slithered into my seat once again, looking normal. Well, aside from my unbuttoned jacket.

Just then, the phone began ringing loudly, echoing throughout the classroom. The teacher dropped his marker and walked over to the phone, picking it up in elegant speed.

Meanwhile, Kaien turned around and smiled smugly at me.

"Class, I am required to step out for a moment. In the mean time, work on page 5 in the textbook and I should be back shortly." The teacher scrambled to grab his brief case and fled the classroom, leaving us in complete silence.

Immediately, Kaien flipped around in his seat and stared at me dead in the eyes.

"Do it." His mouth moved, but no words came out. I sighed, knowing what I must do.

I stood up once again and got on the table. I took a deep breath and began humming. "Kelly won't kiss my friend Cassandra, Jessica won't play ball. Mandy won't share her friend Miranda, doesn't anybody live at all?" I sang low as I dropped my jacket off my shoulders.

I had attracted each and every student's attention in that single motion. I let the jacket fall to the ground and I teased the buttons on my shirt.

"Amanda won't leave me empty handed, got her number from a bathroom stall. Brandy just got way too much baggage, and that shit just gets old." I raised my voice a bit, letting the top two buttons slip out of the holes, revealing my pasty ivory collarbone. "But I got a girl who can put on a show. The dollar decides how far you can go. 'Cause,"

I began actually dancing, jumping off the table and doing all types of seductive moves throughout the isles.

Some had dropped their jaws, some looked purely amused, some were blushing, others were burying their heads in their arms. Most were waiting to see what I would do next.

"She wraps those hands around that pole! She licks those lips and off we go! She takes it off nice and slow 'cause that's pornstar dancin'. Oh whoa! She don't play nice, she make me beg, she drops that dress around her legs. And I'm sittin' right by the stage for this pornstar dancin'. Your body's lightin' up the room, I want a naughty girl like you, there's nothing hotter than a pornstar dancer." As I did this, I dropped low to the ground in a squatting position, biting my lip and running my hand down my side. I made no move to make eye contact with anyone and I was pretty sure I never would again after this.

I closed my eyes and twirled, thrusting against the air as I made my way to the front of the room.

Kaien had an amused look on his face, signaling for me to try some new moves.
