Something Beautiful Chp 8

                                                                           James Pov.

I cradled her face in my hands,her skin was so soft and smooth.Her newly watered eyes were staring up at me,looking entranced,but a small weak smile hung from her lips.I felt myself smile even ,just at how..cute she was

.I could kick alans ass,but its not worth it.I dont know if she even is really over him or not..She says she is,but I doubt it.

I felt the urge,the urge to kiss her forehead.And honestly,I hate to admit it,but I wanted to hold her..hold her for as long as i could..

But I cant,Love is just not for me.She could have any guy in  this school,none the less in this universe.And im just not it..

I pulled away at the thought,and took her hand "come on,were leaving" i said softly.

"w-what?how?james why!"she said getting worried.

I chuckled rolling my eyes,"stop worrying so much,go get your bag from your locker.and meet me by the office,ok?just trust me"I said walking out into the hall way making sure no one seen me walk out of the ladies room..how embarressing would that be...very much.

She sighed giving in after a minute of deciding "All right.."

I smiled nodding and patted her on the head "good girl"

She smirked and punched me in the arm as i hurried off "thats miss good girl to you buddy boy!"

I laughed shaking my head and turned the hallway to go to my own locker.I was thinking of maybe taking her out to get lunch,calm her down,get her mind off things.

Half way to my locker I happened to hear a bunch of muffled yelps.I raised an eyebrow and looked over and walked to the edge of the locker corner,only to see  a couple yelling at eachother,making failed attempts to keep the yelling "quiet".I rolled my eyes and unlocked my locker,That ,THAT is why I dont bother.I dont need drama like that..

I turned looking into my locker to get my things out,as I was putting my homework into my bag,I felt a hand on my shoulder.I turned to see it was one of Delilahs friends,whom had been at the table at lunch earlier.

I smirked,wonder what she wanted.Probably to congrat me on being delilahs boyfriend,or the opposite.

I crossed my arms,a wicked smile on waiting for her explanation to what she wanted.

She clicked her tongue and I smirked at her silence,I hadnt realized it but,she was checking me out.

She touched my arm,rubbing her palm up against it and then gently squeezing my muscle.I smirked taking her hand off,obviously she doesnt speak so ill have to do so first.

"What do you want" I more so stated then asked..

"Oh..nothing..its just,are you and delilah like..boyfriend girlfriend now?"her voice real calm.

She chewed on her lip ,and her eyes trailed down my arms,to my hands,then my stomach and so forth.I shook my head,my guess is this chick is just a slut and wants to cause delilah more trouble then she already has.

I chuckled "Yes,yes we are.Boyfriend girlfriend means that were committed to eachother.Think you can process that in your pretty little head" I turned around slamming my locker

"Dont cause her trouble,or youll have to go through me"I said staring down at her

"w-wha..BUT!we could do so much stufff together!im so much prettier then her!"she yelled in her high voice.The shrill rang in my ears,I shuttered and walked away down the hall,towards the principals.I got around the corner and came face to face not only with the principals door,but the two people standing next to it.

There she was...with alan.She stood there smiling shyly at the floor,and he had his arm and body leaned up against the wall.I swallowed my pride,and reminded myself

its.just.pretend james.Thats it,just pretend,and ONLY pretend.

Pretend ,pretend pretend.

No real feelings,just pretend....

I nodded and kept my face straight and walked up to them and cleared my throat.She looked up her smile fading.Alans smile just got bigger.

I sighed  ,opening the principals door and sticking my head in

"Mr.Keith,I dont feel great,and my friend is driving me home because my car broke down yesterday.Is that fine?I did all my work already.And so did she."I said holding my mouth like i was gonna puke.

"Yea yea creed,go on.Youre one of my top students in this school,go ahead.Just bring a note tomorrow morning to the attendance.You can ask sally to unlock the gate for you.Here" He wrote a small sticky note and handed it to me."feel better kid"

I nodded with a small smile"Thanks uncle"

He rolled his eyes and went back to his newspaper.

I came out and held up the note ,alans face had a smirk as I grabbed her hand

 and said"come on sugar" awkwardly .

I had to try not to laugh because I wasnt use to calling people shit like that.

She started bursting into fits of laughter "sugar?Really james?whatre you elvis or something?"she grinned getting into the car.

I shook my head starting the engine,"yea yea yea,gimme a break okay?"I had a grinn on my face

I felt her eyes on me ,"youre really cute james,you know that?"

I looked over at her and smiled and then it faded as i continued driving

"thanks"i said simply.I felt her own smile fade away from the corner of my eye

I felt bad ,but this is how its suppose to be.

Love just isnt for me .

She deserves so much more then me.

So much better
