How To Steal A Heart

The Game and The Note

Chapter Four
Jacob saw me before school, which I thought was pretty weird. Weren't all the bad kids supposed to burst into the classroom after the bell rang?

I casually strolled away as if I didn't see him, but Jacob went after me anyways. He grabbed my wrist and spun me around. I twirled into his firm chest and gasped. It was almost like a romantic moment. Except with someone I didn't like.

That "moment" was over once Jacob pushed me away with his fingers like I was a piece of shit.

"Follow me." He said.

I didn't listen to him...I mean why would I?

I walked the opposite way, but suddenly I was lifted into the air. By the one and only NastyAss Charming.

"Let me down!!" I yelled.

"Nah."

"Get your hands off of me!"

"That's what she said." He smirked.

I socked Jacob in the face but for some reason, he was not fazed.

"You're gonna have to go harder than that chick."

"That's what she said." I mimicked.

Jacob raised his eyebrows. "You're good at dirty jokes!"

I rolled my eyes bitch style and tried to get off of Jacob, but his grip was too strong on me.

He dropped me back on my feet when we reached behind the gym. My initial thought was to run away, but I knew Jacob would catch me again.

"What do you want?" I said.

"Well you said you don't know me. So..." He started.

"So..."

"Tell ya what. Give me...how bout...this school year to make you get to know me. More like fall in love." Jacob waggled his eyebrows.

Love. That reminded me of the day before. Brandon. Him. Us. The kiss.

I turned hot. "Um. I have a...boyfriend."

I wasn't for sure that we were together anyways. But we just have to believe, right?

"And I have a math test." Jacob said snottily.

"And...?"

"I'm just listing things we could cheat on."

That was such a lame joke. But Jacob's lame too, I couldn't expect much.

"No I'm okay." I said.

"I'll just tell Brandon that you're cheating on him for me."

"How did you know it was him?"

"I saw your kiss, chick. You think I'd go away didn't you? Well I obviously didn't so haha loser."

So he is a stalker. That's a good thing to jot down. But I couldn't risk him telling Brandon that lie. And by the look on Jacob's face, I knew he wasn't joking. I wouldn't fall in love with him anyways. I'm Brandon devoted. I guess.

"Ugh fine. I'll play your stupid game." I said.

Jacob's face lit up. "Great! Prepare to fall for mwah."

I rolled my eyes and pestered him off. "Yeah okay whatever bye...mwah."

I jogged over to my first class which started in about ten minutes. I went inside the room and waited. I checked my phone and social media. Suddenly, I got a text message. From an unknown number. Aye, chick.
