chapter two || devin?

It was a cool summer day, the sun came down on my tan skin. A cool breeze brushed past me making my dark brown curly hair flew everywhere, not that I minded though I guess the messy look fit me better.

I didn't have the same features as Kevin and Shari, my nose is bit wider, my hair is almost jet black and my skin is a few shades darker than theirs. My eyes weren't golden like theirs it was plain dark brown, my hair wasn't in loose curls like sharis it was more spiraled.

Many people don't believe I'm actually related to them, I just got more of our dads features that's all.

I sigh softly and run my fingers through my thick hair. In the distance I could see someone sitting against the tree I claimed, ever since that night I always came back to this tree.

I walked closer to the person, it was a man. His head was down though and he was wearing a SnapBack. He also had headphones in, I could tell because Bryson tiller was blasting through his ears.

As I went to tap his shoulder the man looks up, all I know is golden hazel eyes are pouring into mine. Suddenly realization kicks in, I'm starring at Devin.

"Take a picture, it'll last longer." A smirk spread across face his face. There's the Devin we all know but don't love.

"Haha very funny," I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms. He was in my spot and I wanted it back.

"You're sitting in my spot I would like it if you moved." He raised an eyebrow at me and smirked more, I really wanted to slap it off at this point.

"I didn't know you owned this spot, I didn't see you're name anywhere." He said.

I kneeled down in front of him and leaned more into his direction. I've gotten so close that I could feel his breath hitting my lips, we were almost nose to nose.

I licked my lips and smiled innocently in his face, he looked surprised. We stayed in this position for a while, I could feel his hands making its way up to my waist.

Inch by inch I got closer and closer, our lips almost met until I moved and pointed to my name carved into the tree right above his head.

"You see," I smiled more.

"It says my name right here. Serenity M. Alston. I don't think there's another serenity Alston here, do you? No? I didn't think so, so move."

I stood up completely now and looked down at him, he was silent. For the first time in forever Devin Gordon didn't have anything to say.

I actually thought I won this fight but knowing how Devin acts I should of known he would do something.

He grabbed my arm and kicked my leg out of the way making me trip and somehow land in his lap.

His arms snaked it was around my body, he held me close as I tried to pry his fingers away, it was no use so I gave up.

"You get your spot and I get you in my arms, it's a win win situation." I looked back at him and glared he only let out a laugh.

"This is not a winning situation for me, I'm here with you."

"Ah you don't really mean that, deep down I know you like me."

"Pft yeah right, I don't deal with men that like minors, you pedophile."

"We're only four years apart and besides I don't  like minors, I just like you and I'm not a pedophile."

"That's exactly what a pedophile would say."

"You're not even a child."

"To the law I'm a child damn right I am!"

I got a few looks from people walk past, Devin was trying to hold in his laugh. I slapped him on the shoulder gently.

"Just admit that you like being around me." He said.

"But I don't." I lied, I kinda like arguing with him.

"I can prove that you do."

"How?" I cocked my eyebrow.

"You're still here talking to me and you're still sitting in my lap. I let go of you a while ago but you're still here."

I looked down and seen that his arms really were gone, I looked back at him.

"That doesn't mean anything, I just got caught up with arguing with you."

"Still if you didn't like being with me you wouldn't even be arguing with me, you would've left a long time ago."

Again he left me without anything to say.

"Cat caught you're tongue?"

"No, I just know when to stop talking unlike you." I stood up and dusted myself off.

"Where ya going?" Devin asked.

"Home, where else?"

"Why?"

"Because I wanna go home."

He stood up and also dusted himself off.

"I'm going to walk you home."

"Oh no you're not."

"Yes I am now cmon."

He grabbed my hand gently and intertwined our fingers, normally I would pull away but I liked the feeling of his hand in mine.

He smiled down at me and I smiled back. He needs to smile more instead of smirking or mean muggin all the time. We started our journey back to my house.

Devin grip got tighter on my hand but not to the point where it hurt or was uncomfortable. His face was hard and emotionless, I looked behind me and seen three boys staring at me.

He stopped walking which made me stop, Devin bent down a little and picked me up. I naturally wrap my arms around his neck.

"You might not be mine but you will be soon, I don't like sharing what's mine and I don't like those boys starring at you." He whispered in my ear, his voice was rough and raspy but it was quite sexy at the same time. I can't like him though, he's my brothers befriend and Kevin will never approve.

Updating at 12 something in the morning, if there are any typos my bad but I'm too lazy to fix anything rn. Idk how I feel about this chapter but imma let it stay, I'm going to try to make each chapter 800+ plus words that's my goal.
