The fighting player

Chapter 3

~Day 2 of School~ Kim’s POV

I thought about what I’d told the new kid last night about playing my sista Lizzy. She truly had, had a hard enough life as is whether he believed me or not. You see her Uncle was an alcoholic dead beat who beat Lizzy’s Mom without her knowing, well then, she knows now. He had tried to hit her too, she didn’t know this because her cousin had protected her and taken the hits herself, and this she knew. That was why her uncle was in jail. She didn’t really know the whole thing though so neither do I. The reason I knew about his attempt to hit her is because she found out from her cousin later on. Her aunt was never around and even though she was nice she went out with too many men, none of which loved her aunt. I remember the night Lizzy came to my house bawling because of everything. This was why she was the way she was. But no matter what people said she wasn’t a slut. And I knew the slut comments hurt her, but she denied it if I brought it up.

“Hey sista, damn you’re lookin’ fine! So fine indeed you should be fined!” I laughed at what Lizzy had hollered shaking me out of my thoughts.

“Hey Honey, I may be fined but it’s a risk I’m willing to take to be with an angel like you, speaking of which heaven called. They want you back but I said they couldn’t have you!” I yelled back as she approached, I loved our daily pick-up lines, because they were always so cheesy and funny.

We both cracked up laughing at the same time as we got some catcalls from the jocks.

“Well I’m gonna follow the yellow brick road to Chem class” I laughed this was our ongoing joke about Lizzy’s red cowboy boots whenever she wore them, like today.

“Alright, see ya later.” We parted ways as I headed for math.

Lizzy’s POV

At chemistry I once again took a seat beside ‘Brian’ aka so called player at former school. Well this should be an interesting class.

“Hello again.” He spoke in a low raspy voice.

Was he seriously trying to seduce me, pfft obviously someone didn’t understand my warning.

“Brian right?” I said as a question. I knew his name, but it’s all part of the game.

“Yeah, and yours was Lizzy, correct?” Trying to use my own trick, lame. If that’s all he’s got, he definitely won’t be a player here.

I winked at the guy behind me who was staring at my bum when I sat down. They think I don’t see but I do, and then use it to my advantage.

“You know my name?” I asked the kid behind me. He looked shocked, poor guy.

“Lizzy, I don’t think there’s a guy in this room let alone this school who doesn’t” he said with complete seriousness.

Ha. Take that Brian.

“Yeah, my name’s Lizzy.” I said turning back to smirk at Brian leaning in a little. I saw surprise flicker in his eyes. Puh-lease this wasn’t even my best game.

“Miss McPoggens and Mr McKrie. Pay attention to this class please, unless you both want detention” Mrs Pallows scolded.

I smirked, here’s my chance to show the new kid who he’s dealing with, and little did he know I was also the ‘bad girl’ of the school.

Brian’s POV

The teacher scolded Lizzy and I. I huffed, only my second day. I snuck a glance at Lizzy, to my surprise she was completely relaxed and had a smirk that was ever present on her face. I knew smirks had many meanings, I used them all the time. But something told me she was about to do something…
