The Bad Boy, Cupid And Me

( part 2 )

He stopped right infront of me,his face blank.

God! I hated that look.

His eyes flickered towards Gab and then me.

His jaw locked.

"Care to explain this?.",he asked in a smooth voice and held my backpack in mid air.

I frowned.

"It's a backpack.Everyone has one."

Valentino snickered.

What was so funny?

Reece didn't even crack a smile.He only turned my backpack and showed me its behind.

Crap.

It had large stains of blood colouring it.

"I can explain."

Reece raised a brow,"Explain then."

Why was he making a big deal out of this?.It wasn't like i got shot or something.

"It's not my blood.It's Gab's.",i explained to the boys and pointed behind me at the quiet boy.

Some of the tension vanished from Reece's eyes.He glanced at Gab with a calculating gaze.

"What're you guys doing here? Jack? Dennis?.",i looked at them.

Jack pointed at Reece with a small nod,"The jerk here said it was "emergency".

Dennis nodded with a scowl.

Reece smirked at something Val whispered into his ear.

"Hey! Don't be rude." i said at the pair of boys who had smirk on their faces.

Reece smile down at me and tucked a strand of hair behind my ear,"Little Armel in a shiny armour."

"Look who's whipped." Valentino grinned earning a slap from Dennis.

"Fuck off." Reece snapped,his hand still in my hair.

Time for introductions.

"Sorry ,man.For scaring you like that." Dennis,the ever gentleman,patted Gab's shoulder.

He smiled a little.

We were sitting on the bleachers in the football ground.

The weather was getting colder and colder day by day.Reece was sitting beside me with his hand around my shoulders and talking with Valentino and Jack who were sitting beside him.

I closed my eyes and took a sigh of rlief.

This was perfect.

More than perfect.

My life was perfect.

"Yo,Greg.What's up,dude?.",i heard Jack's voice and then the distinct slapping of hands.

I didn't bother to open my eyes.

I was lazy like that.

A deep voice answered,"I'm fine.Just dandy.",the deep voice said in a dry voice.

Reece laughed and i was forced to open my eyes and see the owner of that deep voice.

A tall guy was chatting with Valentino.His blond hair sticking to his forehead.I could see he had the habit of waving his hands while talking.

He shook his head at something and then striking blue eyes connected with me mine.

He smiled.

He had a pretty face.

"Who's he?" i asked Reece in a low voice.

Reece took his cell out of his pocket,"New kid.Met him at the fight club."

"He seem's like a good kid." i said observing Greg.

Reece frowned ,tapping on his cell,"I don't trust him."

Oh.

I understood why though.The guy was friendly.

Too friendly.

I hate her.

The way she strutted in the school like she owned it.

The way her shiny brown hair always falls into place.

I hate her brown eyes,her exotic high cheek bones,her petite figure.

Little Ms.Perfect.

Sickening.

"Come on guys.Let's go." Chloe called out,standing up to get everyone's attention.

Attention seeking freak.

She smiled at something Dennis mumbled to her.

Smiles like that made me want to reach out and do it.I've waited so long to make her pay.

I've had my chances,but i've hung back.

Watching.

Waiting.

"Oh,we're gonna get you,Chloe! Oh yeah! We're gonna get you." Valentino sang in a high pitched voice.

Everyone started to laugh at that and then started to sing with him.

I smiled.Because the words were true.

So true.

"I'm gonna get you ," i joined in,"Oh yeah i'm gonna catch you...."

Let the game begin.
