Does He Really Love Me?

Chapter 3

(Shaylah's Pov)

Prince lead me back inside. We talked for little bit but then I noticed that something was wrong. "Where's Lexi? She always comes whimpering to me 5 minutes after we get to a party." "How should I know?" Said Prince. I looked at him with a sad face. "I have to go find her. Sorry." "I'll see tomorrow though right?" He asked. "Yup." I said smiling "Later." I walked around the entire place but couldn't find her. I decided to check the backyard and I couldn't believe my eyes. Ray was pushing Lexi into a wall. KISSING HER. Or at least trying to cause Lexi definitely wasn't kissing back. I was about to go punch Ray when I noticed him lift his lips from her and frown. He said something and she started to laugh. After a few words were said back and forth, Lexi started to walk away in my direction. I hid in a bush as I saw her turn around and say something back to Ray and a minute later he left her alone and walked back into the house. I decided to walk up to Lexi. Maybe I should keep a secret. "Lexi!" I yelled. She turned around surprised. "Shaylah..." She said. "You wanna go home right?" I asked. She smiled. "Yeah. Let's go." The walk to the car was unbearable having to hide the secret that I had seen but I had to get through it. What else could I do?

(Lexi's Pov)

It took forever to get to Shaylah's car. We buckled in and drove home silently. When we got back we dropped our stuff and went straight to bed.

Next Morning

"Lexi...." Said Shaylah still groggy from the night. "Yeah?" I said. "My phone. Where is it?" She asked. I sat up. "I don't know. Maybe you left it at the party. I'm sure someone grabbed it." As if on cue my phone beeped. It was an anonymous txt but after reading it I knew it was Ray.

Ray - Thought not giving me your number would work huh.

Lexi - How'd you get this?

Ray - If you mean your number, thank your friend.

Lexi - You have Shaylah's Phone!!!

Ray - HEY. Don't you start yellin at me! Not my fault she left it. Oh yeah and I'm not giving it back.

Lexi - BASTARD.

Ray - Unless...

Lexi - What do you want? -_-

Ray - A kiss. ;)

Lexi - Ur kiddin right?

Ray - Well?

Lexi - UGHH.

Ray - You sound annoyed.

Lexi - No shit Sherlock.

Ray - Half an hour before school you and you alone meets me in front the shack.

Lexi - Today?

Ray - It's 6. Get up and be there at 7:30.

Lexi - Don't you start tellin me what to do.

Ray - Just did.

Lexi - FINE.

I closed my phone and sighed. "Who was that?" Asked Shaylah. At first I hesitated to tell her but I decided it couldn't hurt. "Ray." I said. "He has your phone." "WHATTTTT!!!!!!!" she yelled. "NIGGA BETTA GIVE MY SHIT BACK OR IT'S THE HUNGER GAMES TWO!!!!" "Be Quiet!!!" I said. "And he will give your phone back.... If I kiss him." "That...NIGGA." She said. I laughed. "I'll get it Okay?" I said. She looked at me. "If he even tries to do anything else besides kiss you, call me on my celly girl. Watch me rip his front teeth out!" She said. I just looked at her with a straight face. "He has your 'celly'." We stared at each other for 5 seconds before we burst out laughing on the floor. "Lmao! I forgot!!!" She said. "Well I have to get ready." I said as I went into my closet and grabbed my fav jeans, a loose tee and a hoodie. Shaylah grabbed her Jordan's and threw them at me. "Take these." "Thanks." I said as I started to put them on. I tied them up and stood up. "Bye. See you at school." I said. She nodded in response and I went out the door.

I walked to the shack really quickly finding Ray leaning against the window with a smile on his face. "Why are you so happy?" I asked startling him. "Shit. You scared me." He said as he stood up straight. "Well?" I asked. "I was thinking about kissing you." He said with a grin. "Nice." I said looking down at the ground. "Now where's the phone?" "You mean this?" He said showing me Shaylah's phone. I tried to reach for it but he lifted his arm way up in the air. "Give it back!" I said jumping up and down trying to reach his hand. But his height was my weakness. "You look like a two year old." He said grinning. "You look cute." I started to blush and he took the chance to grab my face and start kissing me, pushing me against the wall once again. His lips were soft and moist filling me with pure and complete happiness. He licked my bottom lip asking for enterence and without control, I opened my mouth and let him enjoy every part of it. I felt a smile take place on his lips and I smiled back instantly wrapped my arms around his neck pushing him closer to me. It took me a minute to figure out what I was doing and I pushed him away forcefully. "Having...trouble...breathing?" He said breathing heavily and smiling. I put my hand over my mouth embrassed by what he did to me. He pushed my hand down and smiled. "Now don't be shy." He said grinning. "This will happen again." He handed me the phone and jumped into his car driving away. I stood there for a few moments trying to catch my breath before I pushed myself off the wall and started to walk to school.

The moment I walked through the doors I knew something was wrong. Everyone was hushed. Here and there a few whispers were passed back and forth. It didn't take long to here my name. Sighing, I pulled my hoodie over my head. I had to get someone to tell me what was going on.

I walked into Math class. Of course I had the seat next Ray. He started taping his fingers against the table. I looked at him and noticed something. He was dressed just like me. A pair of jeans and a dark hoodie covering his entire face. To my surprise he wasn't looking back. I shook my head a looked straight forward. Suddenly I felt a little tap on my shoulder. Turning around a saw Prince. I didn't know he sat behind me. But then I saw his eyes looking down and as I looked at the floor I noticed a crumpled note. I grabbed quickly before turning around and opening it.

Prince - Why would you do something like that?!?!

Me - Wait what?

Prince - Oh you know. Simone was telling me about you but you seem nothing like her description.

Me - Simone was talking about me?

Prince - That's not the point.

Me - I don't even know what I did.

Prince - So you don't remember kissing Ray at all?

Me - Omg. How do you know about that?

Prince - The whole school knows. Some girl saw you at the shack.

Me - But it wasn't even my fault. He wouldn't give me back Shaylah's phone!!!

Prince - So you didn't kiss him intentionally?

Me - Hell No. That bastard?

Prince - We need to talk. Meet me at my house for lunch.

Me - I never go out though.

Prince - Well you're going out today. It's the house just around the block.

Me - Ok. Fine.

He crumpled the paper and stuffed it in his back pocket.
