Two In A Million

Chapter 19\\ Betrayal

***Natalie's POV***

Chris hesitates and looks over at Blake. Chris can see how red he is and stands there while looking back and fourth between Blake and I. I am just staring at him blankly. As a matter of fact, I'm pretty sure everyone in this building is staring at him. I feel I strong arm grab me and yank my out of the booth. When I realize it's Blake he smashes his lips into mine and then I can hear Chris storm off. What the heck, Blake?

•••Blake's POV•••

I saw Chris staring at Natalie for about 5 minutes and I started to get irritated. I know we aren't dating but that can't stop me for having feelings for her. When he stands up to face Natalie I clench my fists. When he realizes what I'm doing he loses seriousness and then looks back and fourth between Natalie and I. My vision starts to get tinted red. I can't take it anymore. I yank Natalie out of the booth and push her lips into mine. Her eyes shoot open when she sees what's happening. When I open my eyes I see Chris stomp out of the room. When that happens I release the kiss from Natalie. Her face turns a bright red and she runs out Jets and starts walking down the sidewalk. I can see Austin and Lucas staring at me. And Noah continues to scarf down more pizza, oblivious to what happened. I run after Chris. He headed into the men's bathroom.

"Dude, what's your problem?" I ask him throwing my arms out in frustration.

"My problem? Your the one who told me that you weren't dating Natalie. So I thought she was free game." He replies to my question.

"But-" I try to get out.

"But nothing. I was about to ask her out until you had to start making out with her out of no where bro. That's not even cool." He sighs. "You don't know how long I was waiting for that moment. I had seen Natalie around school and I thought you guys were dating. And when I found out you were I knew I had to make her mine."

"Well you can't have her." I say straight up. Telling him the facts.

"And why is that?" He says straightening up and seeming to stand taller than me.

"Because I said so." I respond.

"Well I think that I'm going to date Natalie. And you aren't going to to do anything about it." He says and pushes me on the chest a little bit. I push him back a little bit harder and then we start pushing each other until we lock arms and almost start wrestling. We push back and fourth and Lucas comes and breaks it up.

"Listen, you guys both fûcked up with Natalie. But one of you needs to go and talk to her." He spits out angrily. I run out of the bathroom and out of the building where Natalie had went. I see her walking down the street. I get into my car and drive down to catch up to her. When I meet up with her a roll down my window and try to reason with her.

"Natalie?" She snaps her head to attention and then she looks bad down at her feet when she sees it me.

"Oh what? Are you just gonna kiss me again? I'm I your little play toy, Blake?" She looks over at me with desperate eyes.

"Natalie, you don't know what he is like." I tell her the truth.

"I'm not sure if I know what your like either." She tells me and then starts running to hide her tears. I start speeding up to get beside her. I speed up faster and then she whips down a side street unexpectedly and I slam on the brakes. She's lucky there is like no one on this street. I put my car in reverse and see my tire marks. I turn down the street that she turned down and I see her walking with earbuds in now. When I'm level with her I honk my horn to get her attention. She flips me off. I ignore the sting and honk again. But this time she takes her earbud out. "What?" She asks irritated.

"Can I at least give you a ride home?" I ask nicely.

"No." She says with a firm expression.

"Well your going the wrong way, Pumpkin." I state. She looks up and scans her surroundings.

"Ahem," she clears her throat. "I know, this is just a shortcut." She says crossing her arms over her chest.

"Well your shortcut is gonna cost you about 5 miles." I tell her. She sighs and gets into the truck.

"Don't think your off the hook, Rider." She says to me keeping her arms crossed and slouching in the front seat.
I don't respond. I guess I will take what I can get.

***Natalie's POV***

I can't believe I ever kissed that jerk. My insecure self cannot handle all the heartbreak he is throwing at me. I should have never given my heart to the infamous player. All the girls want him. And there are plenty that will give themselves up for him. There are thousands prettier, smarter, and well I guess, sexier. But I am none of the above. He stole my first kiss and I wish I could get it back from the jerk.

He used me as his play toy. If kind of makes me feel like a slut. Is that how people see me? I think eventually I will just become so depressed from all that Blake is putting me through I just will become immune to the hurt. Maybe it will be better that way. Blake drops me back off at my house.

"Thanks for the ride." I say closing his car door and walking up the driveway.

"Anytime." I hear him say before driving off. I don't turn around. I just keep walking. I don't think I can handle what Blake is doing. I know he told me her loved me. But I never said it back. And he has probably said it to like 1,000 different girls. I walk in and I see Jaden sitting on the couch eating Cheetos.

"Hey little bro." I say to him sitting down next to him. I'm just glad he got on the couch successfully. Because lately we have had to lift him on the couch. But he has the arm strength to carry the rest of his lifeless body onto the couch. "Your in fourth grade, right?" I ask him not taking my eyes off the TV.

"Yeah." He replies calmly, eyes stuck on the TV.

"Never get a girlfriend." I tell him sighing and laying my head back and drifting off to sleep on the couch.
