The New Bodyguard

Chapter 5 - Prince?

Lauren P.O.V.

I rounded the corner of the parking lot and saw a girl wearing the highschool uniform and a tall guy looking upset, they seem to be arguing.

I didn't mean to eavesdrop but I can clearly hear what they were saying "Stop Shawn! I don't love you anymore!" Says the girl looking upset as fuck. They continued to bicker when the guy suddenly gripped the girls arm and tried to pull her towards his car.

He's still trying to get her inside the car when I stepped in and ask what is going on.

He looked at me dead in the eye "Its not your business." He said with bitterness.

Hold the fuck up did this dude just- hell no don't give me that fucking attitude.

"Excuse me but what are you doing here anyway can't you see it's an all girls school?" I said back with attitude. "And that's not how to treat the girl you love."

The girl looked shy and the guy let go of the girl's hand and meet me face to face.

"Don't you know I can fucking expell you?" He continued "My father owns this fucking place." He said in my face. "So stay out of this."

I just laughed and took the girl's hand "Don't you know I can knock you out?"

The guy was pissed and got to the driver's seat "Prepare to be fucking beat up." With that he drove out of the school.

"What a pussy." I whispered but apparently the girl heard and she giggled.

"Hi my name is Veronica by the way." She said with a soft smile.

"I'm Lauren." I smiled back then I saw her look at our intertwined fingers. I said a quick sorry and let go of her hand but she held it again "Its fine Lauren, besides you were just like a prince."

A prince? See you tomorrow, my princess.

She looked at me "wait are you blushing?" Veronica teased.

"NO" I looked away shyly, without knowing I was blushing at the memory. God what's wrong with me that's so lame. Calling her a princess.

"Oh Lauren, I thought you were a toughie but you get flustered easily." She teased more.

This Veronica girl is teasing me, maybe I should give her what she wants.

We were walking in the hallway and no one is in sight so I grabbed the opportunity to slam her by the lockers using my right hand and my left hand placed on her chin, then I whispered, getting closer to her I see her blushing like crazy "You don't want me to tease you now do you?" I smirked pulling away.

I walked past her into the classroom. That was a success. I patted myself at the back.

Seconds later, I see her walking inside the classroom red as a tomato, with her hand covering her mouth. She saw me looking at her so I waved my hand. She looked even more red.

"Having fun?"

A voice startled me and I looked to my left to see Camila.

She seemed mad and looking at her sends shivers down my spine. She looked scary.

"Not really" I looked at her and used my right hand to support my face "Are you jealous?"

Camila's P.O.V.

Are you jealous? Is she teasing me?

I looked at her and crossed my arms "No, why would I be?" She flinched.

Lauren's smile is slowly fading away but she didn't move a bit. She looked kind of sad?

"You're just my bodyguard that's all there is." She looked down. I should stop, but I can't control myself "And I don't want you to slack off, look I even got here first." I looked at her and the sight hurt my chest.

She looked up and smiled "Yes, miss. I'm sorry."

Maybe I went too far... she looked hurt...

"Lauren, I didn't mean t-" I didn't get to finish when the teacher came in the room and started the lesson.

Something about that smile is familiar...

The class went by and Lauren was silent and occasionally spoke to answer but the air between us is different than before.

I was talking to Dinah when I saw a girl approaching Lauren, I think her name is Veronica.

They were talking, and seeing her make Lauren smile makes my chest feel something, and it's not a good feeling.

Without knowing I was staring at them "Hey, are you listening?" I still didn't hear Dinah when she gazed at the direction I was looking at "So you like Lauren?" She said nonchalantly.

I almost fell from my sit making everyone's eyes fall on me, including Lauren.

I let my face fall to my hands to cover up my redness "I don't know"

I honestly don't know anymore.

When I didn't hear a response, I looked up and saw Dinah talking to Lauren. Then seconds later Lauren was walking towards me.

She sat down in front of me to be eye leveled "Dinah said you hurt yourself." She said concern evident on her voice.

I was shocked and saw Dinah giving thumbs up behind Lauren. "It doesn't really hurt." I looked away embarrassed.

How can I possibly face Lauren when I said mean things, besides it doesn't really hurt.

She stood up and I thought she would give up but she held my hand and guided me to stand up "Still it's my duty."

Then she leaned closer, her lips almost touching my ear "Besides, I'm your bodyguard."

I don't know why but after she said those things. I felt something between my chest ache. I don't like it.

We were about to go out when Veronica latch herself on Lauren's free hand and Lauren smiled.

What is their relationship? It irritates me so much. The way she just easily held Lauren's hands, and why is Lauren smiling at her so gently. AHHHH!!

Veronica saw our intertwined hands and decided to tease "I guess my prince is charming other girls than me."

Prince? Did she just called Lauren her prince?

She seemed to see my reaction and decided to get closer to Lauren with her finger on Lauren's lips. She even got close to her to let her lips glide on Lauren's ears. Then she said in a low tone "Do you also do what you did back at the lockers?"

Shocked, I looked at Lauren and saw her get flustered. Back at the lockers, what did they do? This girl is getting on my nerves.

"Ow!" I shouted and Lauren immediately held me close "Lets go." She said with concern.

This really sucks. I even faked being hurt to make Lauren focus on me. AHHH!! What the heck am I doing? Why do I want Lauren to only look at me-

"We're here" Lauren said guiding me inside the infirmary room. There seems to be no one inside so Lauren made me sit in one of the beds and sat beside me "Where does it hurt?"

Instead of answering her question I asked a different one "What is your relationship with Veronica?" She looked me deep in the eyes as if she's trying to read my thoughts "Were just friends" I wasn't satisfied and Lauren seemed to understand "She calls me prince tho, because I kind of got into a mess and ended up saving her." I nodded.

"So, are you not hurt?" She asked again. This time I answered "Yes, and it hurts here."

I let my fingers intertwine with her and guided our hands in my chest. We stared at each others eyes for awhile when Lauren spoke "Do you like me?"

Do I like Lauren?
