Oh.
My.
God.
His lips were literally just inches away from mine, and all I could hear was the rapid thrumming of my heartbeat. Up close, i could appreciate the desirable look in his lips that I had never noticed before. They were so luscious, so round,
So utterly kissable.
Suddenly, a cold sensation tingled all over my skin, like I had just splashed my face with water.
Or gotten my head flushed down a toilet.
What the hell are you doing, Lillian? He shoved your freaking head down a freaking toilet, and you're about to kiss him?
"No," I whispered, this was out of line.
It's not the fact that he did it, (I'd had my head dunked plenty of times by Eliza and her pack of lost puppies) it's the fact that he humiliated me, to the state of begging for mercy.
And why did he do it? To look cool for his jockstrap friends.
And now he thinks we could just kiss and make up?
"No," I croaked out, a little louder this time. I looked away breaking the electricity in the air. "No, Carter, I can't do this."
Carter re-opened his eyes and gazed into mine, puzzled. "Why not?" He flicked his hair out of his eyes.
He was so damn sexy.
But not right now, right now to me . . .
Right now, he looked like a monster.
An ignorant, temperamental and pitiless monster.
I stepped away from him; my back arching against the desk I didn't even know was there.
"Because you dunked me, Carter! Don't you think that hurt my feelings at all? Even the slightest bit?!" I screamed at him.
Understanding, sadness, pain, regret, anger, sadness again. All these emotions flashed over his features in a matter of seconds.
But I didn't give him a gap to speak, it was my time now.
Lillian Rose Anderbeld was taking the stage.
"Do you even care?! Did you just bring me hear to molest me then tell the whole school how easy I am?"
"No, Lily, please-"
"My turn!" I interrupted him. "You did, didn't you?! You thought that now I was, like this-" I gestured to myself and my new body, my makeover "-that you could automatically swoop in and take it!"
His face was blank as I screamed at him, portraying no emotion to me.
"Besides, I don't even know you!" I said. "I met you, what,, three days ago? Four? You don't just kiss randoms, Carter!"
