Falling For My Exchange Brother | BOOK 1,2,3

23. Whooped

"You're gonna hurt him in the very end."

I look, seeing Nathan standing in front of my table as he has his fists balled at his sides. Making me snort, I roll my eyes as I stand straight. Letting him see who the alpha guy was.

"You clearly forgot who you're up against. Who you talking about anyway?"

"Arthur you dig-dong! He deserves better and I don't even know how he fell for-."

I sneer at him, everyone looking at us as they didn't know. Except Bella and Talia and Dylan...

"You better take that outside because I'm not having this argument in here."

"If you can't even own up to it then you aren't a true person he should have in his life. I'd love to brag about my relationship with him-."

"But you can't huh? Have fun dreaming." I burn, making him get red faced.

"I just want you to know that you'll hurt him. At some point, maybe sooner than you think, you'll hurt Arthur. He doesn't deserve to have his heart broken and you'll do just that. To protect your popularity - and for what?! Everyone here will forget one another once we graduate!"

I glance over, seeing Arthur still in the lunch line as he puts food on his tray. Not facing us, thank goodness.

"Nathan, you wouldn't understand. Besides, if I was hiding it then how come they know?" I nod at everyone and of course they'll pretend. All of them nodding like puppets and he didn't seemed convinced.

"Pathetic. I can't wait for you to hurt him and then he'll be mine. If you hurt him, I get to punch you-."

"And if I don't? I get to sock you in your throat." I growl, making him smile.

"I'm counting on it, on me to win!" He laughs, walking off right when Arthur was heading over. Making me shake my head, I sit down as I feel him sit beside me.

"What wrong?"

I shake my head, knowing people were going to start rumors and I'd have to fix them with brute force. Nathan did that on purpose and I see why, but that's none of his fucking business.

"Nathan was trying to one-up William here. We all know he'd be to the floor." Kyle said, and I sneered as that wasn't his business to tell him.

"Really? What one-uping?" He asked, making me grin.

"It's...trying to fight someone and giving a stance, but truly you don't want to fight them - it's a joke to everyone."

Arthur looked at me and I wanted so badly to sock Kyle.

"Nathan want to fight you?"

"It's nothing don't worry about it." I assure, and he shrugs as he goes to eating.

Bella looks at me, and I shake my head in annoyance. I already know she's trying to read me and I don't want her too. Her and Arthur can do that with ease and it pisses me off.

Standing I dump my tray as I leave the cafeteria, almost finding myself...scared.

My heart raced and I was walking faster than necessary. My mind was going crazy with thoughts and I felt sick.

What Nathan said was getting to me...

'Pathetic. I can't wait for you to hurt him and then he'll be mine...'

I looked at my hands, seeing them trembling, shoving them into my pockets.

The thought of Arthur leaving me and for Nathan because I hurt him...scares me. I doubt Arthur would do something so petty, but still.
