Leading up to now

Chapter Ten - Cassie.

I walked into the canteen to hear Lucas tell Gerald to leave me alone, I rolled my eyes and walked up to them.

“Cassandra can do as she wants.” I said with my hands on my hips from behind Lucas. He turned to face me. I raised my eyebrow at him.

“Did you even hear what they were saying?” He asked me.

“No, but I’m sure it was nothing bad.” I snapped back. Gerald winked at me, I winked back. Why the hell not, if it annoys Lucas this makes flirting so much more fun. “Why are you bothered what they are saying about me?” I asked him.

He glared at me and snarled, “It doesn’t.”

“Why don’t you leave us alone then?” I glared at him and he walked away, I saw that he was looking so I sat on Gerald’s lap. “What is his problem?” I asked them.

“He is weird.” One of Gerald’s friends said and everyone agreed.

His friend left and it was just me and Gerald, I saw Lucas about to walk by us. I grabbed Gerald’s face and smashed my lips into his. I pulled back and whispered seductively into his ear. , “There’s more of that.”

I walked away and winked at Lucas who was standing there like idiot staring. When the bell rang I walked to history and found Lucas already there I sat next to him and smiled.

“You know, I’m a big girl I don’t need you or anyone to look out for me.” I told him.

“Fine. You should know he’s playing you though.” He replied and looked at me.

“How do you know that? You don’t know everything.” I said and gritted my teeth.

“Because I heard him tell his guys to back off, you’re his toy.” He smirked. “Believe me now?”

“You’re just jealous.” I smiled and played with my hair. “Besides why are you jealous of him?” I asked and bit my lip.

“You’d know if I was jealous.” He said and I looked away from him for some reason I really wanted him to be jealous but he’s not. I rolled my eyes and kicked him in the leg. “What was that for?” He shouted getting the whole classroom to stare at us.

“You are a jerk, I hate you Lucas.” I grabbed my bag and ran out of the class after that.

I ran up to the tree as I was nostalgic about it since I left it yesterday. I tucked my legs close to my body and looked at the beautiful view. Why did I feel like this? I shouldn’t care that he’s not even jealous, but I do. I want him to be jealous of Gerald. Lucas is a pig and I hate him even more than before. I only met him a day ago and I’ve come to that conclusion already.  He doesn’t care about anyone but himself. Selfish arrogant jerk face.
