Bumping into Mr Bad Boy

Chapter 21 : Bets and Projects

Jayden's POV

Hurt flashed through her eyes when I told her that. I immediately regret it and I just want her lips to be on mine. I know I like her and my friends teased me about it.

What friends they are.

Flashback:

Dustin, Chase and I were playing video games but I zoned out.

"You've been acting different nowadays. What happened man?" Dustin asked.

"I'm thinking about a girl. The girl who can make my heartbeat go faster than ever before. The girl who has dimples and a gorgeous smile. The girl who seems so strong yet so fragile. The girl who never drools when she sees me. The girl who doesn't want to bang me. The girl who starts with the letter A," I said.

"I know! Ashley?" Dustin asked.

I don't know if he's just joking or he is just plain dense.

"Ashley is opposite of what Jayden described idiot. Is it Amanda? Anastacia?" Chase asked.

Who the hell are those girls?

"Nope," I answered, rolling my eyes.

"Avery?" Dustin immediately asked. By the mention of her name, I just kept quiet.

"Dustin, give me the money," Chase said.

Wait, what? What the hell is going on?

Dustin muttered a few curses under his breath and handed him twenty bucks.

"What the hell is going on here?" I asked.

"Dustin bet that you won't fall for Avery but I bet otherwise,"

"YOU GUYS BET ON ME?! YOU ASSHOLES!"

I yelled and they started running around the house. I caught up to them and punch them playfully. We all laughed but Dustin's face became serious all of the sudden. When he's serious, it's definitely not a good sign.

"Jayden, you know what will happen if you like her. She won't be safe. You have to let go. Avoid her so you can't fall for her more and get your face smashed on the floor. Like literally. The same thing will happen again if you hang out with her all the time. Your stepdad and his brother can just pay their men to tail you. And you won't know. Since you are always with her and I bet my house that they are tailing you, they already know Avery. So you are in deep shit,"

I hate that he's right. I have to avoid Avery from now on.

Back to the present:

I got up and walk away. I can't see her in tears. I would melt like how ice-cream meets sunshine. Or like how Lavagirl from 'Sharkboy and Lavagirl' make everthing melt by her single touch. That's what Avery is capable of. She makes me weak without her trying.

Avery's POV

I'm just lucky that we came here by my car. I drove back to my house without telling the girls. They have their dates anyways. I may seem like a bad friend but right jow, I could care less.

When my house came to view, I stopped the engine. Opening the door and just plopped myself on the couch. Not bothering about changing to my pajamas, I just stare at the ceiling. I thought aboit what Jayden said earlier. The more I think about it, the more depressed I feel. I sobbed so much until my makeup smudged. I look at myself on the mirror.

Oh my god. I look like Beyonce got knocked down by the bus. That's a good thing by the way. Note the sarcasm.

The weekend flew by fast and now it is already Monday. I walked into the main gates and everyone's eyes are on me. Are they still on about what happened last Friday?

I awkwardly walk to my locker and open it. I don't dare to look up. This is why I hate attention. Everyone is watching every single move that you make.

<><>

Lunch...

"Where are the boys?" Kate asked when we sat on our usual table.

She spoke too soon. The boys are strolling in the cafeteria and sat with us. They keep giving each other secret glances.

"How are my pretty ladies doing today?" Dustin asked with a grin.

"I keep getting looks by everyone," I said, avoiding eye contact with Jayden. He is the reason why I am getting all of this. If only he didn't kissed me, this won't happen.

Just admit that you like it.

Shut up brain. Now, back to the story.

"Well, you just have to wait. They will be okay with it soon," Chase said.

"I am not worried about that. I hate that I'm getting attention when I'm alone. I have monophobia. And most of the time, I'm alone. We all don't have the same classes you know," I said.

"I can accompany you. We have the most classes together," Jayden volunteered.

Lunch flew by and soon it's the last period. Biology. The class which used to be my favorite but now, not so with Jayden inside.

Today is be the day we present our project. To say I'm nervous is an understatement. I'm terrified.

Me and him alone, and people staring at us is a nightmare. I hate my fear of being alone at times.

We waited for our turn. I am a nervous wreck.

"Miss Salo and Mr Collins, come to the front please,"

This is it. I'm going to die.

"Um... We are going to present you our project which is about the reproductive system. So, when we do sexual intercourse without a condom, something will happen. Jayden, please explain," I said.

"THE SPERM FROM THE MALE WILL GO INTO THE VAGINA AND BAM! BABIES WILL BE REPRODUCED. ANYONE WANT SOME OF THAT WITH ME?" Jayden exclaimed.

What the actual fuck?

This chappy is disgusting. I will say that. I fail my science so maybe some of these facts are wrong. Sorry that you feel this chapter is shit 🙌🏻

Love,
