Him

Chapter 5

"I'm in love with someone else. Sorry." I repeat.

It's no lie. I love Brayden Prescott.

Jace just looks at me and bites his lower lip. I can tell he does that a lot. It's sexy. It's probably something he does to get girls. All guys have that one little thing they do to get a girl. 

"Ight." He walks away.

Why did I even say sorry? I'm not sorry for being in love with Brayden, my best friend.

Just when Jace is out of sight, Kid comes along with his girls.   Girls. Sluts. Hoes. Dumbass bitches who are with him almost everywhere he goes. They barely wear clothes. No bra. See through shirts. Underwear booty shorts and all. Heels. The opposite of me and Riss. What are they doing during the first period anyway? Shouldn't they be in class? Not that i'm surprised.

Kid is another guyfriend of mine. He's the popular playboy of the school, girls love him and his big muscles. They love that he's tall and very athletic. They love his skills in bed and all that. But kid is nothing compared to Brayden. Brayden is mostly like Kid. Except you'll never see Brayden with all these girls around him, he's no playboy. Brayden is smart and kind but badass at the same time. 

Back to Kid. "Hey Vanny?! Whatchu doin' here in the hallways all by yourself with that beautiful chocolate body of yours?" He checks me out and comes towards me with all his bitches. "You waiting for me? I knew I was gon' getchu one day. My crib, tonight, you know where to find me?" Did I mention he talks a lot? "We gon' get it on tonight, baby, we are."

One of the girls, Tina, standing next to him squeals and and slaps him on the cheeks. "What do you even see in her?" She squeals with her annoying voice.

"Bitch, he sees what he don't see in you." I snap.

"What did you just say?" She start walking towards me and I do the same.

"You heard me, I don't repeat things to bitches like you." Now our boobs are only two inches away.

"Kid, did you hear what she just said to me?" She looks back at Kid who was already making out with some blond chick. What a baby.

"What do you want Kid to do about it?" I look at her with a glare. "Hey!" I call out Kid.

"Ladies, ladies, what's going on?" He comes up to Tina and slaps her ass and Tina groans.

"Tina here is mad because I called her a bitch, Kid, what are you gonna do about it? Tina really wants you to do something." I say in a pouty tone... If pouty is even a word... 

"Tina, young girl, relax, you are a bitch." Kid says and holds her hand.

The other girls just stay behind Kid and watch our little show.

"You did not." She crosses her arms.

"Now, excuse me, I gotta get to class." I say.

I walk away and can tell they're watching me as I make my way to first period. I don't play with girls like Tina who think they're all that when they just hoes. Kid doesn't even like them, he just uses them for sex and homework. I shake my head at the thought of how dumb those girls are. It sucks. 

Just when I'm about to make a left corner I run into Brayden who is sweating like he's just won a long running race. I straighten myself up and put on my what the hell happened to you look.

"Shit happens." He shrugs. He looks completely hot.

"What did you do?" I ask.

"P.E, I was racing the boys." He says.

"Yeah, I don't believe you."

"You don't have to." He says with his face very serious already. He doesn't sound good, he never does.

I just decide to stay quiet and not push him on the matter and let him continue. "That boy, you gotta stay from him."

"Who?"

"Don't pretend you don't know what I'm talking about." He holds my hand and walks me to the seats that are on the wall to the right. It makes uncomfortable, but it feels really good. I don't want him to let go.

He sighs as we seat down and he lets go of my hand. "Jace, Jace Tebon."

"Yeah, what about him?"

"I saw you two kissing, is he your new boyfriend?"

"No, he kissed me."

"Why were you with him anyways?"

"Are stalking me?" I ask with curiosity.

"No, I just happened to see you."

"How?"

"I was getting some coffee from the office  for the stupid ass lazy teachers and I saw you on my way. Back to Jace."

"He's not my new boyfriend, again, he kissed me and I didn't kiss back." I state.

"Good, because I don't want you dating him." He says.

Who does he think he is? My dad? I can date whoever I want to date.

"Who is you to decide that?" I ask.

"You can date him. If you want to. I just don't want you to."

Now I want to know exactly why he's acting like this.

"Why."

"It's a long story, V, you don't want to hear it." He stands up and walks away. 

Now I just want to go home. Long story? I don't want to hear it? Riss has got to hear this shit.

The whole day just goes by with me thinking about Jace and Brayden throughout all the periods and it finally comes to the last bell.

"Vanessa, stay please." Miss T calls out.

"What?" I ask when all the student are out.

She walks over to the desk i'm sitting at and reads me.

"You weren't very focused today, anything wrong?"

"No, I've just been thinking about how you teachers can wake up everyday and come teach kids who don't care." I lie. Horrible line. Now Miss T is going to give me a whole big talk about teachers.

"Well, we care and if they don't, that's on them," she starts.

As always, we talk a little longer and then I decide to leave.

When I get outside to my car I see Riss talking to Jace by the car. 

"Hey." I say walking over to the car.

"Hey." Jace says while checking me out.

"Well, it was good talking to you, Jace." Riss says looking him up and down.

She gets in the car and I do the same.

When we're just seconds away she starts squealing like a baby. "Oh my gosh, he's in love with you!"

"What?" I ask.

"Jace wan
