Dark and Dirty Like You've Never Seen

"Best Friends Forever"

I managed to make it through the first class without making a complete idiot of myself. I resisted the urge to turn around every thirty seconds to catch Frank’s eyes. The one time I did happen to see him he was staring at me with hooded eyes and that ridiculously attractive smirk on his lips. I bite my bottom lip thinking about what had happened earlier and turned back towards the front of the room. Unfortunately, that bad ass persona I managed to muster up to kiss him has now faded and has left a terrified girl in its place. My adrenaline had worn out and now I felt almost embarrassed about what I did. Why did I do that? I mean, I know why; he’s hot as hell and I couldn’t resist the longing I had to feel my lips pressed to his again. It’s not just the looks though, but the way he makes me feel. Is it possible that I have only known him for a few short days? Still, that’s just not like me. He’s going to be sorely disappointed when he finds out that I had a lapse of confidence which has quickly dissipated.

The bell finally rang for first period to end. I slid out of my seat and grabbed my books from under my desk, making sure not to flash my ass at everyone. Stupid skirt; I was so uncomfortable. That’s what I get for showing off. As I stood up, I felt a hand on the small of my back and I froze. I knew exactly who it was without looking. That familiar electricity ran through my body at his slightest touch. I felt his lips close to my ear and his hot breath coating my neck.

“Locker. Now.”

Jesus Christ. Two words out of him and my legs almost gave out from under me. His voice was so thick with a need I couldn’t put into words. It was the same need that coursed through my veins every time I looked at him. I just nodded my head in response, not able to form words at his demand. We walked side by side down the hall to our locker. He stood just a few inches from me, causing the hairs on my arm to stand up and my senses to be on high alert. We reached the locker and I began to put in the combination. I felt his brooding eyes on me the whole time. It was almost weighing me down. I pulled the lock off and swung the door open. I switched out books for my classes and turned to him. He had put his hand up on the locker next to us, trapping me in the confined space. I swallowed hard, pulling my books hard into my chest.

“C-can I help you?” I couldn’t stop myself from stuttering. I mentally kicked myself. A little more confidence, please?

“So … what was that?” his lips twitched. Oh God, please don’t smirk or I won’t be able to control myself.

“What do you -- ” I was cut off by someone ripping back my locker door. I felt my heart sink. Don’t be a teacher, don’t be a teacher …

“Hey, I’ve been texting you all day. Do you have your phone?”

I instantly recognized the high pitched voice as my childhood friend, Lacy. I saw Frank take a step back, shoving his hands in his pockets. I bit my tongue. Whatever he was to say or do wasn’t going to happen now. I saw Lacys gaze turn to Frank. She smiled, stupidly at him. I tried my hardest not to roll my eyes. She held out her hand.

“I’m Lacy, and you’re…”

“Frank. Nice to meet you.” he shook her extended hand. I saw her give him a once over before letting his hand go.

“You, too.” She said rather breathy. I looked between her and Frank, neither looking my way. What the fuck? Bad ass Angela was quickly on her way back if something didn’t happen. I couldn’t read the look on Frank’s face, but Lacys was pretty damn obvious.

“I’ll see you later, ok?” Frank finally said looking down at me. I just nodded. He looked at her one more time before looking at me again. He gave me a quick wink before strutting off. There he goes again, making me feel helpless, and for a split second, I forgot what Lacy was just trying to pull. I can’t blame her though. One, she has no idea what has happened the past few days, and two, he’s extremely attractive. But that’s just it. Lacy is shallow. She has a knack for leading guys on, not caring about the collateral damage she causes. I cleared my throat and she snapped her attention back to me.
