Friends With Benefits || James Mcvey, The Vamps ||

James' *P.O.V*

"Autumn, please can we just get this over with." I pleaded.

"James we will talk later." She mumbled.

"Fine." I said plainly and stormed out of the room slamming the door behind me.

I just wanted to explain myself as I never meant to hurt her. The frustration messed around with my brain. Before I could have any further thoughts I heard my name been screeched. Turning around it was Chloe who jumped up into me wrapping her arms around my neck.

"we have art today." She spoke with her high pitched tone which went straight through me like the sound of nails on a chalkboard.

"I know." I said deeply before she put her lips to mine and closed her eyes.

I kept mine open and saw Brad walk past me smirking which made anger build up in the pit of my stomach as his eyes burned towards me. He was clearly pleased with him self making my anger worse that lead to me ripping Chloe from my body and to the floor.

"Leave me alone." I spat with frustration and anger.

"James I cant when we are partners in art." She squeaked.

"Not anymore." I spoke sternly which was laced with venom.

I walked off stomping my feet as she stayed on the floor saying my name. All I know I that I need to make it up to Autumn. Everything was running through my mind which strained my brain. My mind came back down to earth as a figure stood in front of me. Scarlett.

"James stop playing Chloe."

"I'm not playing Chloe, I have done nothing to lead her on so if you mind I have better people to worry about then your friend who is the least of my interests." I said sharply.

"Let me guess, Autumn Grace, the reject of the school." She smirked.

"Don't talk about Autumn like that. She means more to me then your friend ever will." I spat before walking into form leaving slutty Scarlett to follow.

*Skip to Break*

English just dragged. I spent most of my time with my brain rattling and worse of all Autumn was in the lesson. We would make eye contact and I would let my icy orbs pierce into her brown ones. If anything it made the matter all the worse. Her eyes were filled with sadness which made me feel worse. The bell went for break and I saw Autumn with Connor walking out the door making me rush after them.

"AUTUMN WAIT UP!" I shouted making her face me and stop along with Connor.

She whispered something to Connor which ended up with him walking off. I caught up to Autumn and engulfed her in a hug but she kept her hands to her side.

"I'm so sorry Autumn you didn't let me explain myself." I said into her neck as one hand was around her waist and the other on the back of her head.

"Explain then, you left on the morning with out waking me or leaving a note after having sex with me the night before when you knew it was my first time."

"I'm sorry, I was rushing to get changed. I tried to wake you but you didn't wake up, my sister text me saying that my dad would be home in the morning so I needed to be home, believe me I didn't want to leave but I had to."

Autumn just looked down still clearly hurt.

"Then why did you ignore the next day in art, I looked up to you when we had to pick partners but you just looked at me then went to Chloe."

"Autumn it was because Brad was next to you and looked like he was your partner." I spoke and looked into her eyes.

"I'm really sorry, Autumn you mean more to me then you think." I smiled at her.

"No I don't James." She continued to look down

"Yes you do!" I practically shouted. "Maybe I do actually like you. I will have to make an effort and work hard for you to believe it, but I am up for it."

I cupped her cheeks and looked into her worn tired eyes and said give me a chance.

"Fine, we are only friends right now, but it might get to go somewhere when you get your act together and actually prove you care, it wont be easy." She said obviously needing some sleep.

"I'm up for it." I smiled rubbing my thumbs over her cheekbones and smiled.

I went to peck her lips, but turned her head so I kissed her cheek instead.

"Friends." She said simply before leaving my embrace and walked off.

"Friends." I mumbled to myself before taking a deep breath.
