IRRESISTIBLE - Jeff Atkins

11

"casey! just in time! we were just about to play teams." monty said from the other side of the table. "why don't you join jeff?" he added.

casey had only played beer pong once, she won but she got pretty wasted. "do i have a choice?" she asked. montgomery shook his head which resulted in casey groaning. it wasn't too bad though, atleast she got to spend time with jeff.

before she knew it, the game was over. jeff and casey had won, and she only had to down three cups. "nice job princess." jeff looked her up and down. "how bout this time no teams, just you against me?" he offered.

casey smirked. "are you sure you're up for such a challenge?" she asked. jeff was already on his way to the other side of the table. "bring it." he said. montegomery and zach were already bringing out new cups.

"what does the winner get?" she questioned him. jeff licked his lips. "a kiss." he smirked. casey felt herself blushing. "game on." she liked this reward. win or lose, tonight her lips would be on jeff's.

-

"i let you win." jeff said sitting down on a pool chair. "doesn't matter," casey sat herself on his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck. "i believe i should be getting my reward." she pointed to her lips.

casey wasn't drunk, but all the beer definitely helped her loosen up. jeff wasn't drunk either, but he was excited to finally kiss the girl of his dreams.

just like that; the two leaned in and kissed. but of course one kiss turned into many, but neither were complaing.

"finally!" justin said interrupting the two. jeff let out a light laugh. "i'm gonna head to the bathroom." he said trying to avoid justin and jessica. casey shifted in the chair as he left.

casey felt embarrassed, yes she had just made out with jeff atkins; but jessica would never shut up about this. "finally! it's about time both of you got together." jessica squealed.

"what do you mean finally? we've known eachother for less than a week." casey said. "you two, were meant to be from the start!" she slurred on her words once again.

"well i'm going to get another drink." casey stood up from her seat. "you can't avoid her forever." justin said. "better sober than drunk." she replied before turning around to head inside, but she stopped in her tracks when she saw the person she was hoping to avoid most.

bryce walker. "casey drenova!" he said with a cocky tone. "glad you could make it!" he said. "yeah well i was just leaving." she tried to walk away but his hand caught her wrist. "don't touch me!" she jerked her wrist back.

"just leave her alone bryce!" justin yelled from the pool chair. "i'm not bothering her." bryce replied in a voice loud enough for justin to hear. "you are actually." casey said.

"don't lie to me sweetheart! we all know like every other girl you came here hoping to go up to my room and have a little fun." he smirked. casey felt like throwing up, not because of all the beer she drank; but because she couldn't imagine something that disgusting.

"that's clearly what you came for, so let's just go upstairs and have some fun right now." without thinking casey slapped him. she would have done it if she had thought anyways.

"ah so you're playing hard to get." bryce held his cheek and approached her again. she slapped him again as he got in her face. "fuck!" he yelled. as he approached her this time, jeff stood in his way.

"what do you think you're doing?" jeff questioned. "tell that little bitch to keep her hands off of me!" he shouted. "don't talk about her like that." jeff's tone was harsh. "or else what jeff?" bryce walked up, now he was just inches away from jeff. "you're gonna make me apologize? you're gonna tell coach to bench me?" he said with sarcasm in his tone.

jeff was a nice guy, he rarley got in fights. bryce on the other hand was the complete opposite. "you're not doing anything atkins." his voice was quiet. jeff chuckled before his fist connected with bryce's face. people immediately crowded the two, many pulled out their phones to record.

jeff was now on top of bryce, nobody pulled him off to stop the fight. everybody knew that bryce deserved this. zach and montgomery finally stepped in when bryce's face began to bleed and bruise. "okay jeff you've made your point." zach said as he held jeff back.

casey placed her hand on jeff's chest. "let's go." she whispered into his ear. bryce walker had just lost a fight at his own party, and jeff left without a scratch.

the car ride home was silent, but not the awkward kind. as the car pulled up to casey's driveway she unbuckled her seat belt and leaned closer to jeff. "thank you." she kissed his cheek.

"see you monday." he said before casey closed the car door. she nodded. "drive safe." she smiled at him and closed the door.
