"Let's get out of here."

His voice was deep, raspy, husky and his jaw was clenched. He looked pretty fucking pissed but incredibly hot.

I was very confused to see him here, let alone helping me.

Johnson had said that Jack was skipping this party and hanging out with Madison or some other girl. So this was a surprise.

Gilinsky didn't even wait for me to talk or ask questions. Instead, he pulled me through the side of the house, into the front yard. I saw his jeep across the street and we silently made or way there. We got in and he started driving without a word. The air was full with a tense silence. He still seemed pissed off and I was just very curious and still a bit shaken up from the incident.

I finally noticed that we were at the Arboretum we went to last time.

Jack silently turned off the car and got out.

Sitting there, I looked down towards my waist and sure enough, there were bruises. My left arm had some too, but they weren't as dark as my other ones.

I jumped when I heard my door open and Gilinsky's deep annoyed voice.

"Can you get out of the car?"

Oh shit, I forgot.
He was still probably angry at me from the way I treated him the last time we talked.

"Um yeah."

The silence was awkward as we walked to the pond where we played 20 questions and skipped school.

When we arrived, I sat down on one of the large rocks, my legs feeling surprisingly exhausted.

I stared at the water, avoiding Gilinsky and saving myself from more awkwardness until he cleared his throat.

"Are you okay? Did he hurt you?" His voice had a concerned twinge to it which made me smile a bit. Even after I was a total bitch, he still kinda cared about my well being.

"Uh, yeah, he left a couple bruises, but that's all" I replied, showing him my arm that had purple spots on it.

He nodded "How's your head? You fell pretty hard on it."

I smiled and shook my head. "Not that hard, just have a minor headache now."

He nods again and his phone goes off, telling him he received a text. I looked towards the forest giving Jack a tiny amount of privacy.

I still don't know if he's mad at me and I'm just really fucking confused with everything. Ugh my heads all fuzzy and I didn't even drink.

All I could hear were crickets and Jack typing on his phone, probably sending a message to one of his many girls.

After like ten minutes, I looked up and shot a glance to Gilinsky.

He looked pretty chill, he was leaning back and had his two arms supporting his weight and eyes closed. I bit my bottom lip, God fucking damn. If he wasn't such a fuckboy, I'd be one of those girls that fall for him.

I had a mental battle against myself, debating if I should apologize for that one day and also thank him for right now and then ask him several questions oorrrrr just stay silent until he started the conversation. The struggles.

I took a deep breath and decided that I should apologize. I mean c'mon, he saved my pathetic ass from getting physically, mentally, emotionally and sexually assaulted by some disgusting pig.

"Look Jack," Instantly, I cringed. I've never ever said his name out loud. "I want to apologize for being such a bitch to you that Monday evening.  I don't know what got a hold of me. I thought we could've been friends after getting to know each other, but I ruined that chance with my mood swing. I would tell you why my mood became bitchy, but to be honest, I don't even know. "

After I finished my small apology, he looked at me, threw his head back....and laughed.

My shoulders slumped and my face became red. Umm, the fuck? That was not the reaction I was looking for. I kinda expected a "you should be sorry" or maybe a nice "it's fine, I get it, don't worry bout it." Not laughter.

I automatically pout. "Why are you laughing?"

His laugh subsides and he shakes his head. "Maybe you were on your period?"

I look up and glare at him, but then roll my eyes.

"I hate you"

Gilinsky chuckled. "If you actually hated me, you wouldn't give me such a heartfelt apology."

My cheeks flushed a light pink. "Shut up."

"It's fine Olivia, I guess I forgive you. I mean what you said is true, I don't care about girls feelings and I admit that. I guess I was just mad that you told me that and my ego didn't like that." He shrugged and ran a hand through his hair.

I debated on asking him why he avoided me and our friends, why he saved me, and why he took me here instead of my house. I was curious, but didn't wanna piss him off or something.

"Why'd you save me from the dude after what had happened?"

Gilinsky looked at me as if I was some stupid bitch. Probably cause I am.

"If someone looks like they could be raped, I'll help them out. No matter if I got beef with them or something. That's sick to just see it happen without doing something about it."  He said as though it was the most obvious thing, which made me feel extremely dumb.

"Right."

Well, now I wanted to know why he avoided me and the others whenever we went somewhere and I also wanted to know who Madison was and why he got so mad when that asshole from the party mentioned her.

If she was just some fuck buddy, then he wouldn't really care if that dude 'fucked' her. Maybe that douche was inclining that he did what he was trying to do to me to her? I don't know and that's why I wanted to know.
I'm a curious bitch.

"Soooo....who's Madison?" I casually asked, trying to start a conversation.

Gilinsky's head perked up from his phone when he heard that name.

"Why do you wanna know?" He asked looking at me confused.

I leaned back and used my hands to steady myself. "I was just curious since you got really pissed off at the mention of her name."

"She's just some girl." He said rolling his eyes.

I decided to test him.
I'm annoying ok.

"You're lying."

He glared at me.

"Why are you so fucking nosy? Mind your own business, damn."

I threw him a glare. "I was just curious, chill."

"It's a long ass story that I really don't feel like sharing." Gilinsky shrugged.

"Fine. Can I ask you another question?"

"What?" He asked, clearly irritated with all my asking.

"Can you take me home?"

This story sucks ass ikik, but I'm just putting in chapters so it doesn't go too fast. I want this story to go slow. Show them falling for each other and their ups and downs while they develop feelings. I still don't know how many chapters it's going to be and so I can't say that it's going to be long.

Anyway, yayyy Olivia finally apologized!! This chapter is basically going to propel their friendship!! How exciting!

As always, don't be afraid to tell me your thoughts and ideas about this story in the comments! If you enjoyed, give this chapter and the other ones a vote!
Bye mis bitchachos 💕💯
