Chapter Twenty

I explained to them about the whole Jordan situation this morning, but not last night.

"What happened last night?" Bee asked

"What do you mean?" I said

"You said he hit you last night, what made him hit you?" She said

"Oh, um... We were talking then he started to get angry with me" I explained

"What did you say? I mean it looks like he hit you pretty hard" Joe said stroking my cheek with his thumb.

"Nothing" I replied

"C'mon Liz, you had to say something. What was it?" Will asked

"It was nothing" I repeated

"We all know that's bullshit, Liz just tell us if it's nothing" Joe said

"Why do you guys care?" I said annoyed

"We care about you and we want to make sure your okay" Will said

"Sorry, it's just..." I trailed off. I sighed, why do I always feel uncomfortable talking about Jordan when Will's around? "I told Jordan that I'm going to prom with Will. He didn't take it well"

"That's why he hit you? That boy has problems" Zack said as the others agreed

"No, he started saying that it's unfair that I said yes to Will when I knew Jordan longer. I asked why are you making a big deal out of this. Then he said he wanted to go with someone special. So I said why don't you ask one of his 100 girlfriends. He said he didn't have any girlfriends" I explained

"Then...." Joe added in

"Then I said that those girls are a hit and run. I called him a fuck boy" I said

"And that's when he hit you?" Will asked as I nodded "That asshole" I heard him whispered under his breath

"Yeah, I don't want to talk to him anymore." I complained

"Come on, lunch is almost over" Joe said looking at the time and everyone started to stand up

"I don't want to go" I said laying on the grass

"It's only the afternoon classes" Bee said "C'mon" She said sticking her hand out. I sighed and stood up

Bee, Will and I said bye to Joe and Zack, and headed to class. We were a late because everyone was in their seats. Once we walked in, everyone started to stare at us. Well, most likely me because of my face...
I look over to our table and Jordan was sitting there.

"Oh, hi Liz. I thought you weren't coming to school today" Jordan said

"I changed my mind. Why are you here?" I asked

"What do you mean? Class? I always come here" He said

"You know what I mean, go to your table" I said

"That is his table. I moved him there" I heard the teacher say (I forgot the teachers name)

"Fuck" I whispered and Jordan smirked.

"Oh, is this the lucky guy who gets to go with Elizabeth to prom?" Jordan asked turning to Will

"Fuck you" Will replied and all Jordan did was laugh

We took our seats and started to work on our projects. I tried my best to ignore Jordan but he would always ask questions...

The bell rang meaning class was over. I gathered my things quickly and walked out of the classroom not waiting for Will or Bee.

"Liz!" I heard someone say behind me. Of course it was Jordan
