He Isn't A Psycho

Chapter 14 - Cry Me A River And Drown Yourself In It

When I arrived at school, first period had already started. Rushing into the hallway, I ran to my locker and began to get out my things, when all of a sudden I heard a classroom door open.

"WHO YOU DO THINK YOU ARE!" A teacher was screaming at a student, who he clearly sent out.

I didn't look as I was too busy panicking, trying getting all my things together.

"GO TO THE PRINCIPLES OFFICE, NOW!"

I heard the same door slam shut, and a pair of footsteps walk down the corridor.

Shutting my locker and turning around, I noticed Braxton walking in my direction, although I'm not sure why, as the principles office was in the other direction.

"I want to talk to you" Braxton called out, I turned around to see who might of been behind me, when I realised Braxton was addressing me.

When he was close to me he stuffed his hands in his pockets and bit his lip before speaking, "Just to make this clear for you" I leaned against my locker, trying to not looked bothered. "I don't want you telling your 'friends' about last night"

"You mean, you stalking me last night?" I raised an eyebrow.

"Me being near you" Braxton replied.

"I won't say anything, I wouldn't want to ruin my reputation"

Braxton's eyes filled with fury. It looked like I just let out the demon inside of him.

"Other way round" He finally said, trying to contain himself.

"Is the bad boy scared of me ruining his reputation?" I cooed. "Cry me a river and drown yourself in it"

I turned around and walked down the hallway, I was thankful that Braxton didn't pull me back like he usually does. For once I got the last word, and not him.

I remembered what Dylan told me about Braxton's mum, and how she died. A part of me felt guilty for being rude to Braxton, but the other side of me felt like it wasn't all my fault.

He can't take his anger out on me because he doesn't like me. I don't like him either, and you don't see me walking around at night following him in the shadows.

I was just going to stay out of his way for now, he hasn't told anyone about the fight on Monday, so maybe I was worrying for nothing, giving him the reaction he wants.

Walking into my Chemistry, a sudden thought hit me.

Jakob told me to sit with him today at lunch...which meant sitting with Braxton.

"So what happened?"

"Eh, I guess I'm not feeling it" Mackenzie replied.

"Your not feeling it? You bunked school for him" I was scribbling doodles on a blank piece of paper, since our English teacher was boring the hell out of me.

"Yeh I know..." She trailed off, starting to day dream.

"So how are you going to tell him?" I turned to face a Mackenzie who was floating on cloud nine.

I slapped her shoulder, making her snap out of her thoughts. "S-sorry, what did you say?"

Rolling my eyes, "I said, how are you going to tell him?"
