What Have You Done? - Montgomery De la Cruz x Reader

{chapter two}

Montgomery's P.O.V

I was not looking forward to this at all. Trust Bryce to pick the one girl that I genuinely hated, she refused to even speak to me most of the time and our only communication thus far had been a number of annoyed grunts. At least I wouldn't feel bad for hurting her. Despite that I took extra precautions to seem approachable: I showered, combed my hair and practised my best 'I'm fun to talk to' smile in the mirror. This was fucking ridiculous.

"You are Montgomery De la Cruz - baseball extraordinaire, charmer of the female population.There is no fucking way you're letting Y/N Y/L/N make you look like a dick. Get your shit together" 

To be honest I was only mad because the boys had spent the entire night taunting me in the group chat about how I was going to die alone. I didn't like the girl okay, and it was pretty obvious she didn't like me either. I grabbed my phone and my backpack, started my truck and drove to school. I purposely forgot to pick up Justin on the way. Serves him right, the sly little prick.

I met the guys in front of Bryce's lockers as usual, greeting them with my usual smirk.

"Well look who scrubbed up" laughed Bryce.

"Fuck you, I've not done anything different"

"Did you ... you showered didn't you?" asked Marcus, smacking my shoulder trying to mock me. I clenched my jaw.

"Yeah, that's nothing new," I wasn't in the mood.

"I beg to differ.You once had a competition with Justin to see how long you could go with out one. Just about the only thing you've ever won," added Zach

"Three weeks. You stunk bro" Bryce laughed

"That never happened. Now shut up quick" I punched them in the arm as Y/N walked past off, consumed in re-organising her notebooks. The last thing I needed was her thinking that I went weeks without a shower. Zach rolled his eyes at me watching her.

"No. Come on dude. Seriously? Y/N?. She's like a sister to Alex. He'll fucking end you if you break her heart"

"I'd like to see Alex take on Monty" sniggered Marcus.

"I can't believe your making me do this. She's so uptight. I don't ever think I've seen her smile"

"She's the smiliest person I know. Must be something to do with you" said Bryce. I scowled at him. Our conversation was interrupted by Justin running up and punching me in the shoulder.

"Really Cruz? You just left me there" he was grinning but I could tell he was a little pissed.

"I do not give a single shit". He wrinkled his nose a bit, leaning towards me "Are you smelling me?

"You took a shower didn't you"

"Why does the entire of Liberty High seem to think that I don't shower?"

"Can you remember that contest we had freshman year?" he sniggered.

"YES, OKAY WE GET IT. THAT HAPPENED. CAN WE JUST FORGET ABOUT IT NOW" I started to walk away. "I've got English to get to"

"Y/N's got English hasn't she" I ignored them

"OHHH, HE'S FINALLY GOING FOR IT"

"Just remember who's in last place" called Bryce after me, causing the other guys to laugh. I waggled my middle finger at them as I spun on my heels. I licked my lips, smiling. Not for long I though to myself, not for long.

English was interesting. I was sat directly behind Y/N and despite my attempts to get her to talk to me she refused to turn around. I eventually gave up at that, starting to rip pages out of my book and crumple them into balls. I threw them at her one by one until she whipped her neck round
