Kennedy's POV

Sorry, this chapters a little bitty, it has a couple different parts to it, but I hope you enjoy it anyway!

Chapter 4

Bakery boy and Whitney were in my Chemistry class. After the whole, predictable 'I'm the new girl' episode, I sat next to Whitney and we began doing some experiment that I didn't really understand. Thankfully, Whitney was really smart, smart enough to make it look like we were both doing something. Our teacher, Mr Green, was really, really unenthusiastic, surpassing the lack of enthusiasm for this class than most of his students. He had this hilariously monotonous voice, it was if there was no soul in that big head of his

When we finished the experiment and started making notes, Mr Green over at his desk decided to make things super awkward:

"Chase, I really don't get how staring at the back of new girl's head could be more interesting than the wonderful world of chemistry," he said, and the whole class fell silent. I smiled a little, with a warm feeling rising up in my stomach.

"The only thing that could be more interesting than the back of new girl's head is the front." He said, and I blushed. Wow, this boy was smooth.

"There's no flirting in my classroom. Both of you, out. And do your oversexed, hormones out of control teenage thing elsewhere." He said, with almost no emotion at all. What the hell? I didn't do anything.

"I didn't do anything?" I said, almost feeling Chase smiling behind me.

"He's just under loved," I heard Whitney whisper and I giggled a little.

"I saw you smiling, out!" he said, and the class laughed.

Chase and I packed up our books and exited the classroom. Oh boy were the teachers here fucking weird as hell.

"Thanks for getting us both kicked out, bakery boy," I said as we began walking aimlessly down the hall.

"Shouldn't you be thanking me for something else?"

"I don't think so," I said, looking jokingly confused.

"Let me remind you then. Let's just say I only walked into that bakery because I had to meet the girl behind the counter with pretty eyes. I mean I don't even like brownies." He said.

"I don't think I can trust anyone who doesn't like brownies. In fact, I don't think you even deserve the name bakery boy."

"Hey, I didn't hear from you after Friday. It was like you just, well, vanished." He said, and I got nervous.

"I'm elusive, what can I say?"

"Kennedy," he said raising an eyebrow.

"So, Whitney tells me you're the main player around here. Quaterback and everything."

"Do I fit the mould?" he said, and chuckled.

"Chase, I'm not going to be a notch on anyone's belt, okay? Your little charm thing may have worked on all the other girls around here, but it's not on with me."

"When you resist me like this it just makes me want you more, you know?" he said and winked at me.

"Chase I'm serious," I said, rolling my eyes.

"Are you just going to believe everything Whit tells you? I thought wrong obviously, seeing as you are just like all the other girls to believe more in what you've heard than is right in front of you."

"I have a boyfriend, anyway." I blurted.

"Oh really. What's his name?"

"Ellis." I said. I wasn't lying, technically. Ellis had been my boyfriend for like my whole life. It put my mother at ease when I was with him and he was the perfect escort for my debutante ball and so forth. He was the golden boy of Orange County, and as his girlfriend, I was essentially the golden girl. But I preferred black, so mother sent me away.
