The Rebel Meets The Badass

Chapter 5

I just about threw my phone at the wall the next morning when the alarm went off. Reluctantly, I got up and decided that I needed to get dressed for school. Screw the nerd girl disguise, I'm fucking everyone's minds a couple days early. I got dressed into my black skinny jeans since it was raining today, my tight black Def Leppard tank top, my leather jacket, and my combat boots. My makeup was my usual routine; heavy bottom liner, natural eye shadow, and a neat top liner with some lightly tinted chap stick. I straightened my black hair so it came right down to my belly button and walked downstairs. "Well someone's not looking nerdy today" I heard Brandon say from behind me. "Screw that. It was way too much work yesterday to act like I was some shy goody goody." I replied. "So I'm assuming that you're driving yourself today?" He asked. "Yep, so you can go now. Thanks for waiting anyway though." "Anytime, see ya at school." With that, Brandon was out the door. I grabbed the keys to my baby (aka my amazing mustang). It's a black convertible with two red stripes down the middle and a red interior. Once I left the house, I hopped into my car and drove off to school. Let's see what Chase thinks of this nerd today.

I pulled into school and all eyes were on my car. Perfect start of the day. I smiled and got out once I was parked. The looks on people's faces were priceless because of how shocked they were at my appearance. I started walking up to my locker when I noticed there was something blocking it. Of course, it had to be Chase with his tongue down some other chick's throat. "Ahem" I said loudly. Nothing, "Well if you'll excuse me, I need to get to my locker." I stated, pushing Chase away, rather roughly, causing the girl to almost fall to the floor. She glared at me but I didn't even pay her any attention. "What the hell" Chase started, looking up. "Violet? Is that really you? Damn, you look hot." He smirked. By now, the girl had walked away, her heels clicking down the hall. "Thanks, you can leave now." I said opening my locker. "Nah, I think I'll stay. I'm enjoying the view." I could hear the smirk in his voice and turned to him. He was staring right at my chest so I grabbed his chin and pushed his head up. "Ow, damn sweetheart you're still feisty. I like it." he said for the second time of me being at this school. Why did he have to come into the office yesterday? Why couldn't it be someone who'd just leave me alone? The bell rang signaling first period was starting. "I'll see you later, princess" Chase yelled over his shoulder while walking away.

I walked into first period and, just like yesterday, all eyes were on me. Although Amy, Nicole, and their friends all had shocked expressions today. "Hey guys" I greeted them smiling, while sitting in my desk. "What happened, V?" Amy said clearly surprised at my sudden change. "Well I was gonna be dressing like I did yesterday for the rest of this week but got tired with it and decided to stop it a bit early. This is the real me." I explained. "Well it's seriously awesome." Nicole said to me, smiling. I thanked her and then the teacher came in and told us all to be quiet. Nicole and I talked the entire class, not even paying attention to what was going on, about everything. From music, to clothes, to stores, to interests. We had so many things in common. She was the only one in the group of friends who liked the same music as me, so she was really happy when she found out I liked all of the same stuff.

Before we knew it, the bell rang and all the students left. I walked to Physics hoping that Chase would skip or something. Unfortunate for me, he was actually on time today and took the same seat as yesterday. "Hey sweetheart" he said sitting down. "What do you want now?" I replied, aggravated with him. He's so annoying and cocky. I mean, I am too but I'm never overly cocky, just a right amount. "What's up with the big change?" he asked me. "I told you yesterday that you'd see the real me today. Apparently you weren't listening. Shocker." I said obviously. "Well it's really sexy, you know that?" he went on. "Yeah I do. Wanna know what's sexier though?" I said seductively, biting my lip while looking at his. "What's that?" he asked the same way. "You shutting the fuck up" replied turning back to sitting normally in my seat. Chase looked flustered once again, because he just sat back in his seat slowly with a confused expression. I was giving him mixed signals and it was perfect. Looks like Mr. Bad Boy isn't gonna win this round.
