The next day...

"Sam just let me explain," Jace says as he follows behind me while I speed walk to class. His voice calms me and I want to forgive him so bad but I can't after what he did. I'll just have to hide my love for him. I hid my love for Billy for 10 years so this should be easy.

"There is nothing to explain Jace." I say through gritted teeth.

Jace grabs my arm and pushes me up against the lockers.

"But there is, Just give me another chance! Please?" Jace's warm breath blows on my neck sending chills down my spine.

My heart starts beating uncontrollably. I can't take him being this close to me. I've never felt this way in my entire life. This is too much but for some reason, I don't want him to move. "I- I can't give you another chance. Y-you broke our promise." I choke out.

He leans closer to me so we're just inches apart. "I know what I did was wrong but I just can't live without you. Please just forgive Sam?"

His brown eyes stare into my soul making my heart go even faster than it was already beating. I need to forgive him. I need him in my life just as bad as he needs me. But he broke our promise. He broke our trust. I'm torn. "Just let me think about it," I say. I put my hand on his tonnned chest and push him back a little but he flinches at the contact and grabs both my arms in his fist. He pins my arms over my head on the lockers and rubs his nose against mine.

By now, my heart is dead because it had at heart attack from beating too hard.

"Think about this." Jace whispers. He brushes his lips against mine before smashing them onto mine. I immediately kiss back. A TNT bomb goes off inside of me and I get lost into the kiss.

Jace sticks his tongue into my mouth and do I the same. He lets go of my hands and wraps his hands  around my waist. My arms snake around his neck and I grab a cIump of his hair. He moans against my lips. He grabs my shirt and starts-

My eyes fly open and I'm soaked it a pile of sweat. My mom bangs on my bedroom door.

"SAMANTHA GET UP YOU'RE LATE FOR SCHOOL!"

I quickly sit up. "I-I'M WHAT?!" My voice cracks. I can't be late for school. I messily look through my sheets searching for my phone. As soon as I find it I turn it on and my jaw drops.

It's 9:30...

I was supposed to be at school by 7:45. I jump out of bed and fall on the floor. I'm so clumsy. I face palm before quickly getting up and running into the bathroom. I quickly brush my teeth and wash my face. I'll take a shower after school.

I run out of my bathroom and grab a pair of black skinny jeans and a black sweatshirt with angry birds dressed as star wars chacters on it. I look under my bed and grab my black and white converse.

I grab my brush and my bookbag after I shove my phone in my hoodie pocket. I run downstairs and outside into my moms car. I buckle myself up breathing heavily. My mom gives me a look of sympathy.

"Are you okay sweetie? I'm sorry I didn't wake you up earlier. You usually wake up yourself so I didn't really bother until I realized you hadn't left the house. One day of being late won't be that bad for you."

I grab my brush and begin brushing out my tangled hair. "My life is ruined."

***

I walk into school to be met by dead silence. Everyone is in class and I'm just here like yaoskfdkndsn.

I walk to the third floor and get all my stuff for class. I look at my schedule and realize I'm supposed to be in science right now.

I speed walk to the science lab. I awkwardly crack the door open and walk in. Everyone stares at me and gasps. As I walk to my lab station I here people whisper things like:

"She's late." and "oh my gosh that's the girl who beat up Mindy."

Surprisingly, no teacher found out about the fight and no one told on us. They must of all thought that Mindy deserved it.

As soon as I sit down and look over at my lab partner. My face flushes red. That dream that made me late for school plays in my mind like a movie. I can't believe I had a dirty dream about him after what he did to me. Why won't my mind let me forget about him?

"I can't believe you were late to school. I'm so proud." Jace whispers while grinning.

I hold back my smile. "Whatever." I spat.

"Look," He pauses and lets out sigh followed by a cute little laugh. "I know you hate me now but there's something that I've been wanting to tell you for forever now and I just-"

I cut him off. "I don't wanna hear it." I say. I know I'm acting like a bitch but I'm madly in love with him and he can never know that after what happened between us. My reasoning may be stupid in your opinion but I'm just afraid that Jace will turn out like Billy and break my heart more than he already has.
