MIRRORS.

Chapter 7

Kairo's POV

I walked into school the next day the happiest I've been in a while. Who would've guessed it? Me... Happy?

Chris made me feel better about myself. He would tell me how beautiful I was every chance he got. Do I believe him? I don't know... maybe? I mean, a person can only lie so much.

I walked at a normal pace to my locker to get all my books and stuff for the first half of the day. I was looking for my Civics book when I felt strong arms wrap around my waist. I instantly knew who it was.

"Hey bae." I turned around to be met with Chris.

I smiled lightly. "Hey."

I could feel someone burning holes in me as I talked to Chris. I looked over and saw Makayla sending me a death glare. I immediately became scared and nervous. Chris must have noticed because he looked up in the same direction and saw the look Makayla was giving me.

She quickly changed it into a flirty smile with a small wave and Chris gave her a look of disgust, causing her face to drop instantly. I tried so hard to contain my laughter.

Suddenly, Chris placed both hands on the sides of my face and kissed me. It was slow and sensual, and I was enjoying every second of it. I heard a chorus of "Awwwww", "Damn", and one "My nigga!". I giggled against Chris' lips at the last one.

Chris finally pulled back, my eyes were wide and I was gasping for air.

"Gah damn..." I mumbled under my breath.

"What was that for?" I asked Chris once I caught my breath, my eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

"I just want everybody to see that you my girl, especially Makayla." he said as he wrapped his arm around my shoulder, pulling me in as we walked to my class.

I couldn't help but smile wide. I looked in Makayla's direction again and she was glaring even harder, if that was possible.

This time, I didn't cower. I smiled at her then averted my attention towards Chris again.

We finally got to my class and stopped walking. Chris turned me towards him and pulled me in closer by my waist, then pecked me gently on the lips.

"See you after class." he smiled and winked then walked away.

"I could get used to this..." I thought to myself as I walked into class.

Chris' POV

I was in class not even paying attention since I already knew most of this stuff. We were just reviewing. I eventually got tired of sitting there so I asked to go to the bathroom.

I was roaming the halls in search of something to do until class ended, when I heard her annoying voice.

"Hey Chris." I heard Makayla say. I rolled my eyes and kept walking.

"The fuck you want??" I said, putting emphasis on you.

"I just wanted to talk..." she said in an attempt to sound innocent. I gave her a 'Bitch please' look and her whole demeanor changed.

"Look, I'm trying to be nice and give you and your little girlfriend a chance, but if you don't wanna listen..." she trailed off.

My ears perked up when I realized she was talking about Kai.

"What the hell you talkin' bout??" I side eyed her.

"Well, I heard about your little date with her and--" I interrupted.
