The delinquent project

Episode 2: Kiss me

Veronica's P.O.V

"Go!"

Cami said pushing me to go twoards the back of the school where all the delinquents hanged out.

"B-but cam it's almost 6th period."

I said whining like a little girl. We just made the bet not even 5 minutes ago and she's already pushing me to go talk to him.

"I'll cover for you."

"W-What if they see me and hurt me, even worse eat me!"

I said grabbing on to her hugging her.

"I don't taste good cam I just don't."

She looked at me before pushing me off of her, sending me flying to the ground straight on my butt.

"Ow!"

She looked at me and covered her mouth giving me an innocent look.

"Oops sorry, you slipped."

I glared at her, getting up and dusting off my butt. She pointed out the door indicating me to go outside

"Fine."

I huffed, stomping my foot and walking out the door towards the back of the school. The delinquents always hung around back in the alley smoking, drinking, and doing only god knows what. I have steered clear of going over there fearful of becoming one of their victims.

As I made my way to the alley boys kept whistling at me while the girls just eyed me in disgust. Oh how I wish I could just be in the library cuddled up with a good book to read.

Finally I made my way to James Lockwood. He took out a cigarette putting it in his mouth before lighting it. He then took it back out his mouth allowing a puff of smoke to exit  it. I coughed swatting the smoke away since it hit me right in the face. He looked up at me rolling his eyes.

"What do you want?"

He asked with a stone cold voice that made me shake on the inside.

"I- I need your help..."

I asked with a weak voice which had a hint of courage. He looked at me with a scowl before flicking down the ashes of his cigarette once more and putting it back in his mouth.

"Oh yeah princess? and what exactly do you need my help with?"

I looked down at my feet wondering if I should really ask him this. There can be pros and cons to my decision.

Pro: Change your reputation, become known as a total badass and win a particularly good bet with your best friend

                                   

                                            Or

Con: Possibly get expelled from school with all of your shenanigans

"Are you going to answer me baby doll? Or stand there and stare at the ground."

           
                   "Okay this is it Victoria."

I mumbled to myself. Finally I  gained up my courage and looked back intently in his ocean blue eyes.

"I need your help to become a delinquent."

He eyed me for a bit before taking his cigarette out his mouth smashing it against the wall behind him to the diminish the flame. He then started walking towards me slowly as I backed away until I hit a wall.

"Damnit"

I cursed under my breath as he kept stalking towards me before he was inches away from my face.

"Look babydoll, I don't want to play no games with you. Who told you to come over here?"

Frightened I didn't say a word which only angered him. He slammed his hand against the wall, making a loud sound that made me wince.

"Answer me."

He growled glaring daggers at me.

"N-nobody, nobody sent me."

He looked at me for a momment before stepping back, running a hand through his hair. He then looked at me narrowing his eyes.

"Prove it."

I looked at him with confusion in my eyes.

"H-how am I supposed to-"

"Kiss me."

My face drained with color. If I kissed him I would waste my first kiss on a no good, hot delinquent. If I don't then I would lose the bet. I looked up at him bitting my lip. Slowly I reached out and cupped his face bring it to mine. Suddenly our lips touched. The kiss was gentle and soft, as he grabbed my waste pulling me closer to him. I wrapped my arms around his neck bringing our bodies impossibly closer to eachother.

Suddenly he pulled away then eyed as I fluttered my eyes open.

"Fine."

He said turning around running a hand through his hair.

"W-what?"

I asked shaking my head trying to get thoughts out of my head.

"I'll help you."
