A Simple Bet

A Simple Bet:Chapter 5

Awe isn't today just the best day ever.Awe Wednesday.I couldn't help but smile when I thought about what today is.Today is the day my plan will be put into action.I couldn't help being ecstatic.I even didn't mind when some Seth started flirting with me and his dumb football team jerks started making comments.Of course that happened when I was about to walk into school with my blue high-waisted shorts,cute pink top,and black wedges."Hey Riley,"Seth called out to when I was going to just walk past him.

I was in too good of a mood to tell him to back off.I walked over to him.He smiled at me and my heart sped up a little.Yep still like him a little."Hey Seth,"I flashed a bright smile at him."Guys."

"Hey Riley,"They all said at the same time.

"So what are you doing after school tonight,"Seth asked me.Damn he was going to ask me out again.I knew they were all waiting for me to answer.

"I don't know why,"I asked.Of course I already knew.And yes I still liked him but he's gonna interfere with my plan and plus I know how dates end with me usually.

"I was thinking maybe we could do something,"He said.I saw one of his team mates make a very disgusting gesture and then another one nudge him to stop.Before I could answer my yahoo went off and I pretended it was a text.

"Hold that thought for a sec,"I said.Before I took out my phone I quickly took a look around to see who could save me from this situation.I spotted Ethan talking to some of the soccer players.Perfect.I pulled out my phone and send him an emergency text.I put my phone away and I looked over at him and saw him quickly walking over to me.

"So you were saying tonight,"I said.He nodded.I had to stall."We'll I would but its just that..you know it's just that."I couldn't find anything to say gladly i felt a arm wrap around my waist.

"Hey Ri,"Ethan greeted me pecking me on the cheek.I smiled brightly at Seth while all the guys on the football team were either giving Ethan confused looks or glares.

"It's just that I'm hanging out with Ethan tonight,"I told him.Ethan let go of my waist and laced his fingers with mine.Seth studied his movement."Sorry."Ethan was staring daggers at Seth.I backed up some bringing Ethan with me.I turned around and walked away Ethan coming with me."I owe you big time."

"How about a kiss,"He wiggled his eyebrows at me.Well he had been helping me out a lot.I sighed I guess.I nodded and we walked over to the table.We both took a seat.I could tell some people were staring at me since at all times someone was watching me.I was really about to kiss Ethan for real.I flipped my hair back.I leaned in the same time as Ethan and when my lips met his I totally forgot who he was.I started kiss him and he did back.

I heard some camera click."Macking on freshmen already Hale,"I heard a familiar voice.I realized that I was actually making out with Ethan.I pulled back and wiped my lips.Ethan looked like he was in a daze.

"And that's how you perform mouth to mouth correctly,"I said.Blake gave me a knowing smile.I turned to see an annoying smirk on his face.

"Come on Ri,I know you better than that,"He said."At least tell me this ones your boyfriend."When I didn't answer he knew."Oh Ri."

I got up from the seat.By now mostly everyone's eyes were on me but honestly I think that happened when I was making out with Ethan.I grabbed Blake's hand like nothing was wrong and took him to a less populated area."One if you ever call me Ri again I will make sure you NEVER have kids."

"There's the Riley I know and love,"He said with a please tone.He was always teasing me when ever he could.He was so much like Travis except Blake didn't hate my guts.

"What do you want Blake,"I sneered.I folded my arms.He got close to my face which meant he had to bend down since he was taller than me.My face instantly turned red.I told you with any guy.He twirled a piece of my hair around his finger.He wanted something.Yep he wanted something.

"It's nice enough to know I still have that effect on you,"He whispered making my face turn even redder."I need a favor."

I told you."We both know you have a lovely voice,"He said.Yeah and.."Will you sing with me and Travis on Friday at school?"

To be honest I was going to say yes until he mention Travis.I pulled away from him and gave him an enraged look."I cant believe you,"I basically yelled.I felt everyone's eyes on me.He backed up."Why would you ask me to do something for him."
