Pumped-Up Kicks (A Logan Lerman Story)

Chapter 3

Telly's P.O.V.
--------------------------------------------------
Remie and Logan. Logan and Remie. Hand in Hand. Walking towards me. Towards Jase. Towards us. My breath hitched in my throat. What the hell is this about? I thought. All I could do was stare ahead and wait for the power couple to hurry up and get this over with. I reached for Jase's hand. It was hot and sweaty. Typical him.
"Jason and Talia! Just the two I was looking for." Remie shouted with fake enthusiasm. " Logan here tells me that you have connections to famous bands...right?"

"Uh actually its Telly but um yeah I...do." My eyes darted towards Logan. His quiff was blonde and his eyes hid underneath a black pair of Ray Bans. They were probably bloodshot. I could smell the weed just radiating off of him.

"Anyway I'm throwing my Sweet 16 in about a month. I'd love to have Emblem3 come. Get them for me?" Her question more of a demand.

"Sorry Remie but I can't." Her face fell. I continued. "Drew is now a solo artist and the Strom Bros are on tour right now." I raised my eyebrows as if to say, where-have-you-been-for-the-past-2-months?

"5SOS?"

"Five Seconds of Summer are opening for One Direction."

"Cody Simpson?"

"Hollister House."

"Fall Out Boy?"

"In the studio."

"Maroon 5?!"

"Adam Levine is judging on The Voice. I can see what I can do about 5sauce though..." With that she turned to Logan. It looked like she was mad at him. I almost felt bad. Key word: Almost.

Remie turned back to me with a sickly sweet smile spread across her face. "Let me know about 5SOS. It would be a shame if they couldn't come." Her voice was thickly coated with threat and poison. Her blue contacted eyes held hate. They left as a nasily bell was sounded. I looked at Jase. A surprised look was plastered on his face. I shook my head and walked into the building. I wanted to get to my first class ASAP. I headed straight for my locker. I grabbed my history textbook and binder and shut the door. I spun on my heel and collied with.... him, of all people.

"Watch where you're going... slut." He shouted.

"Don't talk to me like that." defending myself I poked his chest twice.

" Oh don't act like a damn virgin Mary. We all know you're hooking up with Jase. That also explains why you always come to school with him." His remark came with a sly smile.

" I'm not sleeping with him asshole!"

"I'm surprised you aren't pregnant." By now there was a crowd that surrounded us. I wanted to shoot every one of them that knew the truth.It all happened so fast. I brought my hand up and backhandedly slapped him. His sunglasses were knocked off of his face and landed on the linoleum floor with a crash. A pair of arms, Jace's arms wrapped around my shoulders. I pushed past him and headed a different direction. I wanted to slam Logan's head against the lockers until he was unconscious. I heard footsteps behind me. I walked faster. I didn't need eyes at the back of head to know it was him. I stopped walking and spun around to face him.
"Stop following me! Go back to Remie and Co. and stay away from me. That's what you've been doing since the end of last year. You haven't been interested in me for 7 months! What the hell changed all of a sudden? I don't care if you treat every girl like that but it damn sure isn't going to be tolerated by me. Do yourself a favour and down a bottle of vodka. Then maybe you'll be back to normal. Now leave me alone!!" I finished my speech by spinning on my heel once more. His hand wrapped around my wrist and pulled me closer to him. His grip really hurt.

"One no one every slaps me. Two no one talks to me like that. Three I'm on top so therefore you shouldn't bother with me an upperclassman and Chantel..."

"What?! Say that I need to use protection. Or say that I'm a whore. I dare you. You can ruin me. Better yet why don't you just sleep with me. Since you don't want to be seen with a wallflower, escalate my social status and everything will be perfect. But wait, that would hurt Remie. And once she's done with you, you'll be done. Now let go of me!"

"What part of don't talk to me like that don't you understand! Don't even defend yourself. Do yourself a favour and don't ever let my name come from you again and if you do I will find out. No one is going to know about this private session going on right now got it? His voice was icy and it perfectly matched his eyes. Bright blue and wild.

"What ever happened to you? Maybe it's all the alcohol that you can't even remember how much you wanted to be around me."

"Oh I remember. I decided that you were annoying as hell and that's where Remie comes in." He finally let go of my wrist. "Do something for me okay? Tell me one thing that you remember I said. Goodbye Chantel."

" You said never say goodbye because goodbye means going away and going away means forgetting." I left him dumbstruck in the hallway. I kept seething as I exited the school. I got onto Jace's bike and pulled the helmet over my head. I'll have hell to pay from Jace later. Sorry...
