The New Troublemaker (Gary Smith x Reader)

Chapter 4: Like A Fairytale

I woke up in the morning, feeling sluggish to get up. After staring at the ceiling for what seemed like an hour, I decided to take a shower then change into my uniform.

All prepared, I exited the dorm and headed to the boys dorm.

I saw Pete reading a book on the steps.

"Hi Pete!" he looked up and beamed, waving his hand. I sat next to him.

"Hey! You doing okay?" he queried.

I feel like burying myself away from everyone so no. "I'm good, thanks. Anyways, where's Jimmy and Gary?" He opened his mouth when the door suddenly swung open behind us, causing us both to jump in surprise. Jimmy was dragging Gary down the stairs and dropped him down gently.

"What the- what's up with him?" I questioned. Gary lay flat on the ground with his eyes closed. I glanced at Pete who was observing Gary in confusion.

"I don't know. I tried waking him up but no luck." Jimmy shrugged.

"Bitch, is he at least breathing?" I asked, kind of worried.

"Check yourself." he pointed at the body.

I hastily moved my ear above his mouth and nose, relieved to hear breathing sounds. "Oh, thank GOD." I slammed my hand on my chest.

"Can you try and wake him up now? I did literally everything, I even slapped the soul out of him but he didn't budge." Jimmy addressed.

"Well, what the hell can I do then?" I proceeded to pat Gary's face in hopes of him to at least open his eyes.

"You could maybe... kiss him?" Pete chimed in, awkwardly coughing.

"WhAT?! This shit ain't a fairytale. That's not gonna do anything." I argued, facepalming. I glimpsed at Jimmy, who agreed and mouthed "do it" to me.

I gave it a brief moment before finally deciding to go with Pete's plan. "Both of you dorks definitely owe me for this." Jimmy and Pete scoffed and quietly told me to hurry up.

I stared at Gary's stunning face, eyes shut and peacefully sleeping. I cupped my hands around his heated neck and then harshly pressed my lips against his. His tender lips tasted of yummy mint lip balm, mixing in with my strong vanilla flavored one. After a short time I pulled back, a slight mint taste spread to my mouth, causing me to lick my lips.

Jimmy smirked, giving me a thumbs up while Pete covered his mouth, like he didn't think I would actually do what he said. I looked over to Gary and frowned, wishing he would just move. I sighed and grappled his arm, shaking him lightly.

"See, a pointless kiss didn't do anyth-" I was quickly interrupted when Gary roughly coughed. The 3 of us watched him as he slowly opened his eyes and gazed around and at us baffled at the event.

"Rise and shine, buddy." Jimmy led out his hand and helped Gary up from the hard cement.

"What the hell happened?" he tiredly asked, rubbing his hand on his forehead.

I ignored his question and immediately jumped up wrapping my arms around him in a tight hug, almost causing both of us to tumble down. I whiffed his scent of cologne, my nose feeling very pleased.

Letting go, I took a look at him, he turned away from me to hide the fact his cheeks were flushed with red. He scratched the back of his head, still not knowing what's going on.

"Um, are y-you alright?" Pete cowardly asked.

Gary narrowed his eyes at him. "Yeah femme-boy, I feel fine. Any of you care to explain what happened?"

Jimmy crossed his arms and stepped in. "Well, first of all, I went in your dorm room to wake you up but you didn't. I slapped you as hard as I could and your ass still didn't budge so I went to drag you out here and asked (Y/N) to help me out. Thankfully, she did the job and k-" I covered his mouth before blurting out anything else. I did NOT want Gary to know about that.

I finished his sentence with a lie. "I uh, k-kicked you multiple times and somehow that worked." I laughed uneasily. I slowly shook my head at him trying to tell him to shut up about what happened.

Jimmy pushed my hand away. "Yeah, that." he mumbled.

"Okay... I'm gonna go get some water and change. I was probably so exhausted last night I wasn't able to wake up I guess." Gary said while walking away to head inside the dorm.

Once he was gone, I faced Jimmy and Pete. "Listen up, I don't want him to hear a word about the kiss alright? Just to be safe." I explained.

"Safe about what? For all we know, he could've liked it." Jimmy chuckled.

I rolled my eyes and moved closer in front of them. "If one of you mention a thing about the kiss, I'll hurt you enough to make you beg for a hospital. Got it?" I warned seriously.

"Okay, okay relax." Jimmy said while Pete nodded and backed up in fright.

We waited for Gary for a minute then he came out, feeling better and in a fresh uniform. "Come on losers, lets go in the lounge for a while. Class doesn't start till' an hour later." he pointed inside. All of them went in and I followed behind, lost in my thoughts.

That kiss was the best thing ever but, what will happen if he finds out? No way I'll be able to hide it forever.

If he does find out though, will he feel good about it, or possibly be disgusted?

A/N idk this seems like a useless chapter. it's not even that interesting. sorry folks, i'll do better i promise. updating soon.
