Boy Next Door

The Bad Boys Secret

*Taylor's POV*

  Friday roles around and I head off to school. It was a bit chilly outside so I decided to wear a navy blue off the shoulder top and jeans. My hair was put into a side braid and I headed out of the house before driving to school with Dallas. English class was first and it was my favorite since Corey sat beside me. We talked and laughed until class was over, the class was pretty laid back so we didn't have much to worry about. The next few classes were a drag until lunch. Jake found another seat at the back of class and I was glad. Kara got herself switched into my class and ended up sitting beside me instead. Corey was on my mind, and I just couldn't wait for our date even though I didn't know who was taking who, I was still excited.

  "So if you win, where are you taking me, Corey?"

  "Somewhere..." He says playfully, winking in the process.

  "Cause that's so descriptive right?" I say, sarcasm laced in my tone.

  "Yup! You're not finding out until we get there." he informs.

  "Yeah yeah. Unless of course, I win."

"I won't let you." He says seriously. That for some reason made me blush furiously.

"Okay." I say, considering I was at a loss for words. I decided I will take him to a rollerblading rink if I win, but for some reason I'm not as confident as I usually am.

  We finish lunch and there's a bit of time before lunch ends. Then I see Jack walk over before he sits at our table, he's one of Corey's good friends and the one who threw the party that Corey had taken me to.

  "Hey Corey, Taylor, and Kara" He says.

  "Hey Jack." Kara and I say in unison.

  "Hey, dude lets go hang out near the bleachers." Corey suggests.

  "Sounds good, are you two coming?" Jack asks.

  "Okay, why not?"

We get to the bleachers and sit down and talk.

"Tay come to the bathroom with me." Kara demands.

I follow her to the bathroom before Kara starts freaking out. "Oh god Tay did you see that guy?" She screams.

"What guy?"

"That one, look!" She says pointing in the corner of the hall behind the girls bathroom.

"Oh yeah.. that's Jake? The one Corey you know.. punched?"

"That was him?"

"Yup."

"But he's so cute!"

  "Yeah, a cute jerk" I scoff.

  "Oh come on Tay, he just liked you cause you're obviously stunning. He probably didn't know you had a boyfriend."

  "Corey isn't my boyfriend, and you're right he doesn't know that I have feelings for Corey. Either way he tried to kiss me without my permission."

  "Exactly, so you can't blame the poor boy. Although I agree about the kissing part. Oh god look he's coming here!"

  "Great" I retort rolling my eyes.
