The Bad Boy • AU

Introduction

Kayleen Rosie Maxwell

There he is, sitting in the popular table glaring at me. I roll my eyes and look away from his annoying face.

I don't even understand how hundreds of girls fall at his feet, or fall for him. He's nothing but a selfish jerk who treats everyone like dirt, oh that rhymed. Once Luke gets you under his spell, he will immediately throw your heart away as if it was garbage. Why would you fancy someone like that? 'Because he's hot.' The poor girls would typically say and honestly, they really need to raise their standards if they don't want to end up hurting their heart.

"Luke staring at you again?" Gemma asks, her tone sounds tired because apparently Luke's glares towards me are becoming a part of his daily routine.

Our group consists of me, Gemma, Harry, Louis, Zayn, Liam and Niall.

"As usual." I cross my arms.

"Eh," Harry, Gemma's twin brother, says, "Don't mind him, Kay."

"It's impossible to do that if he's glaring at me."

So Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik and Liam Payne are all from a band named One Direction, the famous band in our school besides 5 Pounds of Stupidness -I mean 5 Seconds of Summer- which consists Luke Hemmings, Ashton Irwin, Calum Hood and Michael Clifford in it.

Liam let out a sigh, "Here he goes."

I assume that he and his bandmates are headed in our direction so I don't make eye contact at all and focus on my book.

"What do you want?"

"Isn't little Kayleen glad to see me?" He reaches out to touch my cheek and I slap it away.

"Whatever." I tell him sternly in a dismissive way.

He smiles mischievously, "Am I getting on your nerves, princess?"

"Another nickname?" I raise an eyebrow at him, "How mature."

"How mature," He mocks me in a high voice. I decide not to mind him because I do not want anymore drama.

He crosses his arms at my reaction and takes a look at my book. Luke takes it before I could react, "What's this?"

"Hey! That's m-" My eyes widen he rips some of the pages. The papers fly around and Luke laughs.

I gasp and I reach out for my book, but he throws it to Calum, "Give that back, you imbecile!"

Luke sticks out his tongue at me and I had the urge to cut it off with scissors. That was my favorite book, "It's just a book, you have to calm down your ass."

"What the hell is wrong with you?" I look down and feel defeated. Books really do mean more than just 'papers that are joined together'.

Harry stands up from his chair and pushes Luke. Luke stumbles, actually he almost fell, due to large boy's force, "She told you to give it back, Hemmings."

Calum, who was in shock from Harry's sudden anger, picks up the papers that fell from the book and handed it all to me. I don't thank him, because, obviously, he doesn't deserve it. I'll just buy another copy of the book I guess, which is quite expensive and exclusive.

"This book means so much to her and you just ripped the pages off." Harry glares at him. And Harry Styles rarely glares at people, "What a douche."

"It's a just fucking book, not a person." Luke replies.

Harry grabs the book from my hand and throws it to Luke's chest. The book falls to the floor and breaks more, "And it can also be thrown to bastards like you."

"This isn't done, Styles." Luke and his bandmates walk away from the cafeteria. Everyone was staring at us the whole time and it was pretty embarrasing.

Gemma sighs, "Who knew a book could cause a scene."

"What are you all lookin' at?" Louis says to the people in the cafeteria. The people's gaze shifted away.

I run up to Harry and embrace him, "Thank you."

His tense body softens from my touch and he hugs back, "No problem."

"You remembered how much the book means to me." I smile.

Harry leans in my ear, "I'll get you a new one, I promise." Before I could say anything, a loud bang of a locker catch's our attention.
