Catch Me Bad Boy

Chapter 3

I sat down at my usual lunch table waiting for Ross. Biting into my pear, the canteen ran out of the cliched apples 

THUMP

I jumped out of my seat holding on to my poor dear life.

"Sheesh Ross. What do you have in your bag?" I said sitting back down.

"Fucking Mr Vince fucking gave us 3 fucking textbooks for the fucking assessment that's coming next fucking week" he huffed, pulling the bag down.

Ross not the kind of person that would swear a lot . He only does that when he's really pissed.

"But Mr Vince is pretty nice" chucking my pear to a bin

"With you, yes. Me, no. He just have that natural hatred towards me. The feelings mutual"

"Anyways. What do you want to do after the whole 'assessment' thing is over?"

"I was thinking of going to Brighton with the school. You know,  for the 'half-term break'" he wiggles his eyebrows.

"I don't know. My mum and dad is pretty busy this break. Sam's going away with the football team. Who's going to take care of Joe?"

"Give him to your Auntie Mary. That's what Shay doing with Carl" he pleads

"It's not going to be easy, but I can try"

"That's my Nani. Always trying" he nudges me in the shoulder. I just smiled and continued reading leaving Ross with his lunch.

A couple of minutes passed by. Ross nudged my shoulder again. I shrugged it off concentrating at my book.

He did it again. 

Ignore

Again

Ignore

Again. 

"God dammit Ross! What's with the nudging?" He points to a couple of table in front of us and saw Rhys Stewart looking in my direction. Our eyes locked and he gave me his trademark smirk and wink. I blushed at his actions and looked down.

"What's going on?" Ross gave me a questioning look

"I was partnered with him for the rest of this term. Nothing much really. Just revision buddies" I shrugged

"Just revision buddies? Nani, you do know that the boy shagged more girls than they are 1D fans. He's dangerous. Stay away from him"

"Sorry. Can't. You are forgetting that he lives right in front of me. Plus, it's too late now. What's with you and him anyway?"

"Nothing. Just stay away from him" Jealousy was in his eyes as he left  the cafeteria without saying a word.

Ross? Jealous? That's shambles. Why would he be jealous of Rhys Stewart?

 Puttiing on my headphones and listening to 'La la' by The Cabs, I walk home with the scene from lunch repeating in my head.

Ross was not jealous. He was probably just irritated by the mountain of homework. 

Taking my keys out from my pockets I make my way in flinging my bag on the table, my brother came rushing down with a sheet of paper in his hands.

"Help me sis! Tell me what happens on your period!" he said with eagerness.

Mum poke her head out of he doorframe with a questioning look. "Joe? Why would you need to know what happens on a period?" she said in a stern voice.
