Stupid Games

chapter 7

Detention!

Dette's pov

Well i guess this is it. I'll just wait for this 2 hours to be over. How am i gonna do that then? Hmmm I'll just- ahah! I'll just stare at the window and imagine my life with Harry Styles. Yeah! Thats a great option. I thought to myself as i walk to detention.

I went inside and saw the devil himself sitting at the front with his feet propped at the table. He saw me and he sit up straight and pointed at the seat beside him, smiling cutely as if asking me if i could sit beside him.

Hell no! I ingnored him and greeted the teacher inside, she just mumbled incoherent words about how we students should just stop being so stupid so she won't be held back 2 hours after school is over.

I went to the far back seat when she called me over and pointing at the front seat beside HIM. I cursed and slumped down at the seat. I saw him smirking triumphantly beside me. Jerk. I cant believe I like this guy. I think i like him before he started this stupid game.

Ever since the first day when me and Liah entered history class, i found myself staring at him already. So i guess im in a deep shit. And just as im about to question how lucky i am, i couldn't be luckier when the teacher announced something. (Note the sarcasm)

"I need a break, i will stay at the teacher's lounge. No cellphones, no going out. Theres an attached bathroom there so you dont have an excuse to go. I alrealy called your parents so they know about this. Behave. Im gonna be back 10 minutes before this is over. Hand me your gadgets" how lucky right? I dont have any other choice so i handed her my phone.

Great. Just great. 2 hours with no phone. And windows are closed with blinds so i cant imagine the life i want. You might ask. Why dont you open the blinds? Im too lazy to get up and if i got up my seat, it would attract attention from him and i wouldn't want him to notice me so i stayed quiet.

It was really silent 2 minutes after Mrs. Aileen left but then he shuffled his seat so it litterally left no space between us. Let the fun begin. Yay. Wooh. Yippee. Clap clap. Yeah? NO.

"so babe, you dont have a choice, you're stuck with me." He said startiing to lean in and i immediately grabbed his face and pushed it away.

"kiss my fist then"i said challenging him. He shrugged and i didnt mean him to really do it but he gently bought my hand to his lips and gave it 3 gentle pecks and i found myself helpless anymore. The way he pecked my hands like he really felt something for me made me melt. He held my hands and intertwined them together and smiled cheekily at me. I got out of my trance and backed away from him.

"what did you do?" I asked him, my mouth hanging open. I've never had a guy pinned over me like this so I'm all new.

"isnt it obvious already? I like you and i want you to be mine" he plead and raising his voice a little. Wow. He really works hard.

"Cut the fucking crap already Reynolds! This is the last time im gonna say this. You and your stupid games and jokes are not funny. You're the typical jerk in those teenage movies who play off girls heart so please kindly just back off and leave me alone" i said just as the same tone as him. Im already desperate to make him stop cuz im already falling. Its hard for me ,believe it or not. It just seems real. Every word. Every action. Every stares. I know its just a game but i cant help it.

"just one date please? Just one date? As a friend? Im gonna TRY to not make a move on you, lets get to know each other a little better please, just one date, and after that if you still don't wanna be friends or atleast be acquaintances then im gonna back of. Just please give me this chance because you really spark off my attention and i want to get to know the girl i fancy" okay i didnt expect that but thats Edward Reynolds, everything is unexpected. Should i agree?

I looked back at him and see the desperation in his face. As a friend. Okay i can do that? And besides i also wanna get to know the guy i like, just friends. Okay. I sighed but nodded. And he smiled.

" yes?? Yes?? YESS YESS!" He fist pump and jump out of his seat. I laughed at him and nodded again. He went to the door and screamed. "SHE SAID YES!" I looked at him like he's crazy.

" Edward get back here, Mrs. Aileen might see and if she did, we'd get in trouble more" i said pulling him back by his t shirt and placed him on his seat.

" sorry" he mumbled blushing. I internally screamed because i never saw him blush. Never in a million years i would've thought he would blush.

" okay so about the date, just friends yeah? No love confessions? No tricks? Just friends. Two people hanging out and laughing"i confirmed just to make sure.

"Yes, no, no, unfortunately just friends, and yeah" he said back and nodded. I sighed heavily.

"Okay, when?" I said rasing both my eyebrows and he pursed his lips. Damn those lips.

"Uhmm tomorrow after 6 pm sharp, I'll pick you up, wear something casual" he said but i wanna know something.

"Where's the date" i asked him and he smiled at me and shrugged with a playful smile on his lips.

"just joking. We'll have our date on the fair, the one thats a few blocks away from our school. I also need your address" he pulled out a piece of paper in his bag and a pen. He gave it to me and i wrote my address and gave it back.

"We still have an hour left, what do you wanna do?" I asked him and he just smiled.

"21 questions. You first" he said and wow 21 questions huh? Well i guess that could work.

(Dette would be bold and Edward would be Italics

"Favourite color"

"Black. Embarassing situation?"

"Peed on the carpet when i was four and we had visitors. Worst nightmare?"

" a big spider watching me sleep. Favourite quote"

" work hard play hard. You"

" love wildly"

The game continued on and we didnt notice the time. After the questions, we played would you rather. Seriously, i never had fun in detention this much. Well detention is never fun. Unless you have a great company and the teacher is lazy af.

" You can go home now" Mrs. Aileen entered the room with a coffe cup on her hand and she went in her desk to open a table which has our gadgets locked in. She handed it to us and gathered her things, mumbling a goodbye as well and left.

" well that was interesting" i said and packed my things as well. " i guess ill see you tomorrow" i waved goodbye and was hurrying out to the door when he stopped me.

" do you need a ride" he asked with his book on one hand and the other holding his car key.

"its fine, i can walk. Its not too far" i said smiling tightly. Well its not too far but the sky is already darkening and im afraid to walk but i am also shy.

"No. I insist. Come with me" i have no choice but to follow me and when we went to his car i immediately gawked at what i saw. A black Lamborghini Huracán.

"Come on get in, it wont bite" he said chuckling at my reaction and all i was left to do was nod slowly and went inside, being extra gentle at the car of course.

I told him my address because he's to lazy af to look at the paper i gave him and its much easier and it will be a practice for tomorrow. His words not mine.

We arrived at the front of my bungalow and i got up to leave but he said " lights are off? Where are your parents?" He asked curiously.
"Oh i live alone, my parents live right beside me, they wanted me to be independent and stuff" i said and he nodded. "Cool" he said and i smiled at him. I got out of the car and waved goodbye.

Just as im about to step at the stairs in my front door, he shouted to get my attention.

"HEY! TOMORROW 6 PM SHARP" he said and with a nod he left. I admired his car as he drove away from the distance.

What did i got myself into?
