Better together

Chapter 28

***Next day at school***

**Bellas pov**

The last period bell rang and I went to go grab my books from my locker. As I went to open my locker, someone tapped my shoulder. I turned around and saw Hayes' football team friends in front of me.

"Hey Bella" one of the boys said.

"Uh hey, your Austin right?" I asked.

"Mhm" the boy replied.

"So what's up" i asked, curious of why he wanted to talk to me.

"Hayes is acting different today. He's been shaking, pacing back and forth and not talking to anyone. I wanted to tell u because since u are his girlfriend, maybe u know what's wrong" Austin responded. Hmmm I wonder what's up with hayes.

"Ok thanks for telling me I'll go ask him" I answered.

"K good luck" he waved at me as I started to find hayes.

"Thanks!" I slightly shouted to him. Where would hayes be? Hmmm I'll go check the football field. Sure enough, hayes was pacing back and forth and his hands gripped his hair.

"Hayes!" I called out to him.

He turned to me with wide eyes.

"Oh hey" he replied.

"Are you okay? Austin came to get me" I responded.

"Mhmm everything's fine" hayes answered. His eyes were darker then they usually were.

"Hayes you're not okay. What happened" I was worried. Things flashed through my mind.

"Hayes u didn't cheat on me, did u?" I choked out.

"NO OF COURSE NOT! You're my baby! I love u too much! I never want to lose u!" Hayes quickly pecked my lips and hugged me. I sighed in relief.

"Then what happened babe, tell me" i asked him again.

"I-I-I- broke my lacrosse stick while messing around with the boys, and I can't ask my parents for a new one and I don't wanna be cut from the te-" hayes rambled.

"Hayes! Calm down! I'll buy u a new one!" I grabbed his hands and interlocked our fingers.

"No-no babe u can't do that for me!" Hayes protested.

"Hayes, I'm your girlfriend! I WANT to buy you a new lacrosse stick!" I claimed. He sighed and engulfed me in a big hug.

"I could never have asked for a better girlfriend in the whole world. I love you so much bella!" Hayes cried into my shoulder.

"Shhhh baby" I stroked his hair and I kissed his cheeks. He pulled away and kissed my lips. HARD. It was a full on makeout scene. My arms were swung around his neck and his arms were around my waist. Our lips did their part. His tounge grazed my mouth a few times.

"YEAH HAYES GET SOME" we heard someone shout. We parted and saw Nash and Cameron with their phones recording. My cheeks turned beat red. I grabbed hayes hand.

"Excuse me boys, me and hayes have to go buy something" I smirked and ran with hayes.

••••

We walked to the nearby Lacrosse store.

"K hayes pick out which one u want" I smiled. Hayes kissed me. "Mhmm okay babe. Thanks so much" hayes mumbled through the kiss. We let go and hayes picked out a red, black and white one. After I paid we walked home.

"I can't believe u did that for me" hayes replied.

"Hayes stop thanking me. You deserved it" I smirked.

"Fine. But I'm making it up to you tonight. Come by my house around 7 in pajamas." Hayes hugged and kissed me goodbye.

"Alrighty! Bye love!" I waved bye.

"I love u! See u later!" Hayes replied.

Hmmm I wonder what hayes has planned for tonight
