"I'm so sorry sweet cheeks." He whispers in my ear and kisses my temple. I have ice for my hand now, at first it sucked but then after a few minutes it went numb to the chill and that was a huge relief but not entirely the pain. Josh keeps chastising the principal about Uncle Jon.
He's on his way down here.
"It isn't your fault." I respond truthfully.
Charlie takes my previous seat and rubs his hands along his face. "I've got his number." He whispers mostly to Lucas. "I'll set up a meeting."
"I'll handle it." Lucas finishes and instantly I start to glare, he's just trying to help. They're both trying to help but their testosterone keeps getting in the way.
And then I'm thinking what the hell am I doing? "No, we're going to file a report. We have the name and his number we can file a report and let the police handle it the right way." They both nod, but I know both of them like the back of my hand they aren't going to listen to me. The jerks.
The only thing that could pull me out of my thought process is the sound of Missy crying. Oh Lord what now? "It's okay Ms. Bradford." It sure as hell isn't okay. "You understand what you did was wrong?"
"Yes sir."
"Oh for God sakes." Charlie mumbles under his breath, "You're seriously buying this shit?!"
Missy flips her gaze to her ex, and again the principal seems baffled. Seriously he deals with hard headed kids every day and he's surprised that someone is standing up to him? "Watch your mouth."
"NO! She was the one looking for a fight! Riley started to walk away when SHE slapped Riley. She spit in Riley's face and said the most terrible things to her and you're going to what? Let her off the hook because her parents donate money to this school? Well so do mine! At the very least she needs to be suspended."
"If that's what you want, fine. She can be suspended but so will Riley. They both used violence after all."
"STOP!" Struggling to get out of Lucas' lap he ends up having to help me stand. "Please just stop." Silent tears fall down my eyes. "Everyone I know you're just trying to help but please stop. It's only making matters worse. Sir, I can't get suspended please. I need a good record for college, I don't have a lot of money like some people in this room I need scholarships and I can't risk getting suspended. I will take whatever punishment you give me just please don't suspend or kick me out of school." Shifting my focus towards Missy, I have nothing but pity on her. "You did all of this because you're jealous? Of what? You were with Charlie? Was it because you d-dated Lucas? Look I'm not sure what you're thinking but I'm not the girl he left you for. I've always been second to you Missy. Always. Charlie picked you and even Lucas dated you first but I've never held a grudge against you."
"God you are so blind." Furrowing my brows, I glance between her and the 2 men in the room. Everyone else enjoying yet another show. Our principal sucks. "YOU ARE THE GIRL HE LEFT ME FOR!" I can't even bring myself to look at Lucas right now.
How many hints had I missed this time?
Or was she lying? To play with my emotions. The latter seems to be the more probable option. "So you stole away Lucas and now Charlie who clearly has feelings for you."
"You're wrong." I state with finality.
I didn't think she'd argue but she does, "I'm not wrong. I don't understand what the hell they see in you but they're falling down at your feet practically worshiping you." My eyes fall to Lucas who is glaring at Charlie, who is looking at me. Basically daring to argue anymore. Is she for real right now? I wanted him for years and now that I'm over him and in my eyes taken, he wants me?
