Disguised As A Bad Boy

A Boy's Troublesome Mess

Chloe's POV

Right in this exact moment, I couldn't decipher what had just happened. 

Everything escalated too quickly.

Two boys stormed outside the tent and I couldn't seem to lift myself from where I was. Silent tears rolled off my cheeks and I felt so afraid, but my fears gave me a strange energy.

I stepped outside as I hear voices made by the two of them.

"Stop messing with my girlfriend Ace, you already know she's taken!" Tyler cried.

"It's not my fault that I like her! I can't do anything to control how I feel and you can't do anything to change it!"

After this statement, Tyler's face was full of shock and a fist was thrown at the other. A brawl was caused and they were now throwing hard punches, wrestling to the ground.

One would be on top of the other, bashing the person below them and then they rolled over, switching positions.

"Enough! Stop it!" I yelled as I tried to break them up, only getting in the way and earning a punch to the face.

The impact of it caused me to fall, landing roughly onto the muddy ground.

I clutched my face in pain and heard Ace say "Chloe, I'm so sorry, I-", his apologetic eyes stared deeply into mine.

This caused for their fight to end and Tyler turned to me, tugging at my hand. We quickly walked away, leaving frozen Ace behind.

"Stay still" I said as I took out my mini first aid kit and reached in for a few band-aids, "Why did you do that? Your cuts and bruises look painful." I took out a large band-aid almost placing it onto his face until his arm stopped me.

"Don't worry about me, it doesn't hurt. But is your cheek okay? I can't believe what Ace did to you, I can't forgive him"  Tyler cursed.

"It wasn't his fault Tyler, it was me because I interrupted you two. I'm glad though because you stopped your fight and that was killing me the most" 

"Chloe I'm sorry that I've hurt you, but I can't help feeling envious because of Ace. I don't want to lose you anymore" he frowns, with a painful sadness. 

"Tyler, listen closely, I don't like anyone besides a boy named Tyler, who has chocolate brown hair and gorgeous eyes. He will forever be my one and only boyfriend. Ace is just another boy, a boy that I'm friends with. That's it, period" I place my hands on his shoulders, forcing him to look at me.

He sighed and whispered "I love you", his head rested on my shoulder and I let him stay there for a while.

After at least 15 minutes of searching for Ace, I finally found him sitting beside a large oak tree.

"Hey there" I said, as I casually approached him.

He stood up and walked to me, "I'm sorry, are you okay? Does it hurt?"

"It's okay, I know you didn't do it on purpose. I'm fine, truly. But let's get you fixed up"

There were a few band-aids left from before, so I decided to place it on for him.

"Don't do this" he said.

"Do what?" I questioned.

"Don't do these little 'acts of kindness', it'll just make it harder for me to forget you" his eyes lowered and he no longer looked at me.

"I don't know what to say right now."

"Then don't. Just, just go back to Tyler. I'll be okay" just like that, he walked off not saying a single word.

Is this it? Is this the end of our friendship?

Lina's POV

A girl was seen walking out of Xavier's tent with tears flowing down her eyes. It seems to me that Ace and Tyler had sneaked a girl into their tent so I decided to investigate who she was.

To search for Xavier was the first action that I took and I looked for him in his tent. But nobody was there.

Strange I thought, so I walked around searching for either Ace or Tyler.

"Tyler! Who was that girl that came out of your tent? What a bad boy" I chuckled.

"W-what do you mean? What girl? You must be imagining things" Tyler stood up and walked away, not leaving me even a second to talk.

"What's with his reaction?"

Fine, be that way. 

I have the whole day to find out about this mysterious girl. First I should start looking for Xavier because he might know. I should also ask Ace, maybe he'll tell me who it is.

For quite some time, I skipped doing the water activities and went around the whole camp. But sadly, I just couldn't get any information and that's when I thought of going back to Xavier's tent.

"Xavier! Are you here!"

"Yep in here!" I hear him say.

"Why didn't you go to the water-" I now stared at a girl who sat inside the tent and responded when she heard the name, 'Xavier.'

"Who the heck are you" my eyes widened in realization.

The "guy" I had a crush on turns out to be a sneaky little b*tch and being deceived made me so angry. So I straightforwardly confronted her and did whatever I could to get the truth out of her.

"Xavier, I mean is that even your real name? How could you lie to me!"

"What- what do you mean Lina?" she trembled.

"I just can't believe you, does Tyler and Ace know that the girl who came out of their tent is actually their friend Xavier?"

"I didn't mean to deceive you but I do want us to be friends."

"No! How can I be friends with someone like you? Don't talk to me ever again" I stepped away from her and looked for Tyler.

"Tyler! Oh my god, I can't believe what I just found out. You know Xavier? Yeah he's a she! The girl from earlier is actually Xavier!"

"What do you mean? How did you find out?" he asked.

"You knew about this?!"

"Please don't tell anyone, I beg you."

"Why do you care about her so much, she's such a loser!" I said

"She's my girlfriend!" hearing this made me feel so shocked and it made me mad.

"I don't give a f*ck, I'll just tell everyone no matter what you say!"

You're dead to me Xavier.
