Dancing with the baseball player

Chapter 6

Brittany's face is instantly filled with fear, letting Eric's hand go I turn and walk back to my table to sit down the crowd makes a path for me.

"Megan, Sin-Sin hurry up and eat your food before it gets cold," I say, "Oh and Eric don't forget about later today I have other places to be." Everyone's frozen for a minute then slowly goes back to their lunch. The dean walks over to Brittany helping her up.

"Jordan you will be punished for this." I raise an eyebrow.

"You sure about that Ryan, cuz I can garentee that I won't." His face twists in a scowl and he turns walking Brittany to the nurse, five minutes later the bell rings for the next class.

"You wanna ditch?"

"Nah if I ditch I won't meet Eric at the park so I'll pass."

"Alright if you change your mind just let me know."

"I won't but we'll ditch some other time, its been awhile since the deadly duo Jordan and Elliot have done something crazy and I think people are starting to forget about us." A smirkish grin appears on Elliot's face.

"I'm down but why not tomorrow?"

"Cuz tomorrow's Friday so it would be last minute planning plus I have to help Eric with revenge."

"Oh ok well text me when to meet and the basics of the plan."

"Sure." And with that we said our goodbyes the rest of the group was listening intently on our conversation.

"Don't worry guys we'll make sure you don't get caught in our evil plan." They sigh with relief and begin walking to class.

I walk into history the only class I don't have with any of my friends, making my way to the back corner of the room I sit down putting my feet up and turning on my music. I stare at the ceiling while rocking to the beat of Good Girls by Falling in Reverse, I see a shadow approach me at turn my head to see who it is. Oh goodie it's Mrs. Matthews I thought to myself, I just turn my head back to the ceiling closing my eyes and ignoring her. My eyes snap open when I feel my beats get yanked off my head.

"What the fuck was that for?!"

"Miss Black I will not be ignored by you today, you will learn something." I stand up and get in her face.

"Look Mrs.Mathews I'm having a really bad day right now so I'm going to ask you only once, may I please have my headphones back." Mrs.Mathews looks shocked at the please I said and hesitates but gives my headphones back.

"Oh hell no, I'm sick and tired of you getting away with everything while everyone else gets in trouble, it isn't fair!!!!!" I look over to see Abigal Smith walking to us.

"Please Abigal you don't understand-"

"Your right I don't understand this is a load of bullshit!!!!" She finally reaches us and snatches the beats out of my hand. My body starts shaking again.

"You better give those back." My voice is low and icy just like that time on March 15.

"Or what, what are you gonna do huh? The only thing you ever do is shake!" She screeches and lifts my beats over her head before smashing them into the ground, Mrs.Mathews eyes widen with horror. With a satisfied smile Abigal says, " Good now it's fair so we can all just get back to-" I lunge for her wrapping my hands around her throat slamming her into the ground. She claws at my hands but I don't let go. I feel hands grab me by my waist sending sparks through my body, I losen my grip shocked and the person lifts me off of Abigal. I spin around turning to face the stranger who touched me raising my fist. I stop when my eyes meet those of the one and only Connor Cruz. Slowly I let my fist fall to my side the sparks are still tingling as he still has his hands on my waist. I hear Abigal gasping for air and mutter monster under her breath. I snap my head to face her before narrowing my eyes and saying, " You want a monster? I'll show you a monster." I walk closer to her and Connors hands leave my waist, I step on Abigal's leg making her scream in pain begging me to stop.

" What's the matter Abby dear, you called me a monster so I'm gonna show you what a monster I can be." A wicked grin spreads across my face and I step on her leg harder hearing it crack, Abigal's scream echoes through the class room and she starts to crawl away from me.

"Now now Abby where are you going I still wanna play." The class is frozen and nobody moves to stop me so I grab her by the neck again and laugh as she tries to get air. It seems that finally Mrs. Mathews comes to her senses and screams for someone to stop me, that seems to have knocked everyone out of their trance and Connor grabs me again. I jerk away from him and give him the deadliest glare I could muster.

"Don't touch me." I go back trying to attack Abby again but Connor holds me back. He spins me around to face him and holds my arms to his chest, I can feel the anger drain away as I struggle to get away. I look up and get lost staring into Connor's eyes, he's staring right back. I jerk away and bolt out the door, I run and run until I reach the dance room/gym.

Taking a deep breath I walk into the locker room and change into my dance attire (A black tank top and shorts with arm leggings). Taking one last deep breath for good measure I turn on the music and begin to dance, my body just takes off piecing random steps together and bending in ways I almost forgot I could. I don't know how long I've been dancing and I don't really care I would dance all day if I could but sadly I can't so I bring my dance to a finish by a leap twirl and landing with a pose. A slow applause causes me to snap my head up and dash for the locker rooms only to freeze on the spot when I hear them yell wait. Slowly I turn to see Connor jogging toward me.

"You uh you f-forgot your s-stuff." Am I dreaming do did THE Connor Cruz just talk to me let alone stutter?!!!

"Oh um thanks." I play it cool and grab my stuff, he turns to leave but stops and turns around.

"Are you ok? I mean after what happened back there." I couldn't stop myself I just burst out laughing, Connor looks at me with a mixture of confusion and thinking I'm crazy.

"I just broke a girls leg and almost chocked her to death and your asking me if I'm ok." His face turns red and he scratches the back of his neck.

"Well yeah I mean you seemed pretty angry, livid almost." I stop laughing and look down playing with my bracelet.

"Well are you sure your not hurt Abigal does have some pretty sharp nails, you seem pretty small to me." My face turns to a glare.

"Are you saying that I'm weak?."

"No that's not what I meant, I just meant that your really short-small! Yeah small and um it's just Abigal is known to play dirty so I was just saying that -"

"Look Connor it's fine but you should've remembered that I can take care of myself." He face turns to confusion.

"I should?" I stare at him in surprise then make my expression blank.

"No I guess not, I shouldn't of expected you to remember" I turn to leave hurt digging its way into me when I know it's stupid to think he would remember one of his ex-girlfriends from middle school.

"No wait, please tell me what you mean." I sigh.

"Crenshaw Middle School 7th Grade." Is all I say before walking straight into the locker room.

I walk out in what I had on earlier ( a t-shirt that says 'How bad can a good girl get?', yellow skinnys and some converse with of course my silver bracelet) running a hand through my hair. Connor is still where he was when I left for the locker room.

"Hey mind telling me what period it is." It takes him a minute to respond.

"7th." Ugh at least it's only one more period till schools over, I walk past him but stop short (every period is an hour long).

"Hey Connor."

"Yeah?"

"When did you follow me?"

"As soon a you ran out."

"So you were standing there the whole time I was dancing."

"Uh yeah, but your a REALLY good dancer."

"I gotta go see ya." I briskly walk through the door and head to my 7th period which is science.
