Sleeping With The Bad Boy

He wasn't mad. That's a good start. But he wasn't smiling either. Still a good thing. I don't wanna be buddy-buddy with him. I didn't really intend to overhear their argument. Let's just say I was at the wrong place at the wrong time.

Just before the class ended. He stood up and went out without permission from the professor and even brought his bag with him. Shockingly. The professor didn't even acknowledge this. Hm something's fishy. So class went pretty slow. Too slow for me. And Im sure for everyone else. After 2 more classes. I was almost ready for lunch. Back at my old school, my mom would prepare my lunch everyday, but since she's got promoted, she had no time for that anymore. Which I don't mind, I'm sure a big school like this has a lot of choices.

I went straight to my locker and fixed my things. I scanned the area to make sure loud guy's not anywhere near me.

To be honest. I'm kinda nervous. This is the first time I moved to a new school. I have been living in Seattle my whole life. I have a best friend but she left before I did because they had to move to Spain. We still email each other when we're not busy.

Anyway back to my point. This is new to me. Being a new girl is a new thing for me. I am not used to big crowd. But what the hell. Let's do this! Fight! Ha!

When I entered the cafeteria, voices filled my ears. Some were laughing. Some were shouting. And some just simply eating. But damn it's loud.

I lined up and ordered.
"Slice of pizza and a grape soda please"
That's the only thing appetizing to me here, so much for a lot of choices huh. I paid and walked towards the tables.

So where should I sit? While standing there like an idiot. I felt a presence beside me and when I looked, it was a girl. She's pretty and simple. Like your normal teenage high school girl.

"You must be new here? I've never seen you around."

She seemed nice.

"Hm. Yeah. Im Jesse by the way"
I can be really sociable sometimes see? I gave myself an imaginary pat on my back. Good job Jesse.

"So you wanna sit with us?"
This is the best statement I've heard today so far.

"Definitely!" Whew saved by - what's her name? Face palm.

While walking to her table I asked.
"What's your name?"

"Im Sam" then she stopped at a table with few people in it. She motioned her hand in a wavey manner and said "these are my lunch mates. Hey guys! This is new girl Jesse!"

There were murmurs of casual hi-s and hellos.

I sat beside her. And she started talking again. It's nice. She's a talker. Im a listener.

"This is a normal-people table. We're not really close friends. Just table-mates so we can avoid bullying. It happens when we're all alone. So we stick together in this hell hole. Besides. It's just one hour."

Then as if on cue. Loud guy came in. People stopped. Girls giggled and guys looked at him in awe with hint of annoyance. I am confused, like really, he's not new here I bet, but why does everyone seemed so affected by his presence.

"Who's he? I've met him and he's a total jerk. I don't know why everybody's staring at him."

She looked at me like I'm from another planet. I am. Then her eyes softened.

"I forgot you're new here. That's Russ Vanders. Bad boy/ Jerk. He is a total scumbag. He sleeps with girls and then dump them after. Half of the girls in this cafeteria experienced it and still wants him."

She pointed into a table where I think is the popular table.

"That's Ara. The pom pom girl. Girlfriend of Zach. School jock. That girl is Russ' last booty call. And Zach doesn't know it."

That is sick. I can't believe he's a playboy. I hate it when jerks use other people for pleasure and treat them like shit. Like if it's mutual and no feelings at all then it's fine, but this is high school, everybody catches feelings. Urgh now I have a better reason to stay away from him. We talked more about him. I learned that even professors get his attitude. They just don't mind him because he get really high grades even if he's not always in class. One time he fought with a professor and that poor guy left the school. He has a bad reputation. I heard he sells drugs and always gets into fights outside the school.

My phone beeped while we were eating.

'Pick u up at 5 - mom'

I replied an 'okay' and then turned my phone silent.

I had three more classes that afternoon which was all amazingly boring. I like to study, but sometimes the teachers are just boring for real.

Mom picked me up at exactly 5 pm and I plopped to the bed when we got home. I fell asleep in an instant. Tiring day for me. But then I dreamed about Russ.
