In my first period Steve was trying to kiss my ass the whole time. By lunch I was tired of hearing him apologize.
      "Okay, STEVE!" I almost yelled when he said I'm so sorry can you forgive me for the millionth time.
     "I will forgive you if you promise to leave me alone for the rest of the day." I sad rubbing my forehead as we walked to lunch. He had a huge smile.
        "Okay okay I promise. Thank you so much Dani!" Steve said as he kissed my cheek and dashed toward the lunch room.
    Just then I heard girlish giggling. I hated when girls had a fake laugh. I turned to look down the hall and saw Billy in the middle of the hall and his douchy friends were leaning against some lockers talking to some girls. As I turned I saw Billy's angry look. He was looking directly at me and I returned his glare with an eye roll. As I turned to walk I heard footsteps coming closer. Trying to get away my arm was grabbed by a larger hand and I was turned to face Billy. I scowled at him.
      "What the fuck was that?!" He said in a hushed angry voice.
   "What the hell are you taking about?!" I said ripping my arm from his hand.
          "You and Harrington! I saw him kiss you!" Billy said getting closer in my face.
    "Well if you weren't so busy trying to get your dick wet you might've heard me yell at him to leave me alone and then he kissed me on the cheek!" I said talking with my hands.
     "What the hell are you talking about?" He said.
   "You think I didn't see you with that girl this morning? Or those girls literally down the hall? I'm not fucking stupid!" I said angrily.
        "Oh that blonde bitch? She came up to me and leaned on my car and told her to get the fuck off. Then she started touching me and I told her to go the fuck away. I didn't even talk to those girls down there!" He said still angry.
   "Oh yeah sure." I said sarcastically walking away slightly.
"What the fuck does that mean?" Billy said innocently grabbing my wrist to keep me from walking away, but it made me feel like how my dad treats me.
        "Don't you dare ever fucking touch me like you own my Billy Hargrove! Don't you fucking dare! Don't talk to me like I'm one of your fucking bitches, cause I'm not and if you ever want us to work you'll give me fucking respect." I said yanking my wrist from his grasp and walking to lunch leaving him speechless.
    I didn't mean to blow up on Billy it's just no one ever grabs me like that other than my dad when he beats me and I didn't want Billy to think he could ever touch me like my father does. I sat down at my lunch table hiding my emotions (Well might I add) and talked to Nancy and Jonathan about their days. Later in 5th period I was sitting in history and was called to the front while we did textbook work.
     "Your needed in the hallway Miss Berkly." Mrs Lopez said.
   I walked into the hallway and was greeted by Billy.
    "Hi Juliet." He said rubbing the back of his neck.
    "What." I said coldly.
"I'm really sorry about lunch. I don't know what happened. I'm sorry if I hurt you." He said sincerely.
     "Hm. Don't you have some other girls that are dying to fuck you?" I said with crossed arms. I was so jealous that other girls wanted Billy.
    "What? No. Dani I like you. I don't want any other girls. I'm sorry if I hurt you.. on Sunday too. It's just- wow what the fuck happened to your hand?!" Billy said pointing to my bandage.
   "I burned it on a flat iron." I had been telling that lie all day.
      "Anyway, I'm so sorry I am an idiot and I shouldn't have lashed out on you. I don't know what I'd do without you." Billy said rubbing the back of my hand with his thumb. I had butterflies.
        "Billy. You were a-" I was cut off.
"A dick i know I'm so sorry. Please forgive me Dani. Please!" He begged.
    "Billy I-" I can't get a goddamn sentence out.
"Ms. Berkly your time is up." Mrs Lopez said without looking into the hall.
     "I've got to go Billy." I said turning and going into class.
   I sat in class and thought about what Billy said. Was he being sincere or just bullshitting. Should I believe him. All these questions raced through my head as the bell rang. I made my way to my last period. Murphy.
   I walked in among all the other students try to blend in but Murphy saw me.
   "Daniella." He said motioning for me to come closer. I winced and did as I was told. I went to his desk.
     "Paper." He put his hand out. I dug through my bag to find the paper on Billy and gave it to him. "Thank you." He smiled.
  I took my seat beside Nancy and we both motioned we wanted to die. The bell rang and Billy came strolling in.
    "Hargrove, paper." Murphy snapped. Billy rolled his eyes but pulled out a paper in a beautiful blue clear folder with my name written in calligraphy on it. Billy looked at me and winked. I was stunned by the handwriting. Nancy poked me and shook her head.
   "Okay class so today we're going to cast the play Romeo and Juliet, and yes you have to." Murphy said. "We'll be putting on the play for the whole school." He smirked. He was evil and he knew it. "Everyone find a partner and run some lines from a certain character."
       Nancy looked at Jonathan and sadly smiled then turned to me.
    "Nance go be Jonathan's partner. I'll be fine go." I said. She thanked me and scurried to his side. I was left alone and doodling.
     "Is this seat taken?" Billy asked.
"Depends who's asking." I smirked not looking up. He licked his bottom lip and sat down.
   "That handwriting was beautiful." I said looking at him.
        "Oh you like that?" He laughed.
"I didn't know you were an artist." I said raising an eyebrow. 
      "I could say the same." He said motioning at the picture of him I drew on a piece of paper. I quickly put my hand on it.
   "That's nothing." I said.
"Really cause to me it looks like..me." He laughed. I reluctantly moved my hand. He picked up the book.
    "Wow Dani this is so cool." He said amazed by his own beauty. "To be honest I didn't know."
     "Well now you do." I said taking my notebook.
   We laughed and talked the rest of class until the bell rung. Everyone ran out. I got to my locker and of course found Nancy.
    "Hey I have to stay for student council today." She said holding her notebook.
  "Okay great how are you getting home?" I asked.
        "See I was gonna ask you if-" She said.
"If you could borrow my car?" I said unsurprised. She bit her lip and waited for a response. I sighed and gave in.
    "Fine but have it home after your done. Bring it to my house and I'll drive you home." I said sternly.
"Of course!" She said so excited. She took my keys and hugged me tightly. She dashed to council and I walked down the hall hoping to run into Billy. I saw his blonde mullet from down the hall.
    "Billy!" I called. He turned to me with his jean jacket over his shoulder.
  "Hey could you give me a ride? Please?" I asked. He smirked at me.
      "Of course. As long as we can hang out at your house when we get there." He bit his lip. I rolled my eyes.
   "Come on." I said walking out.
We walked out and the cold air hit us. I shivered and Billy looked to me.
   "Here." He said giving me his jean jacket. I blushed and bit my lip. It smelled like him. Cigarettes and cologne.
  We got in his car and started driving. For some people his driving is probably crazy but I like it. We talked and quickly arrived at my house.  My dad of course wasn't home.
   "So can I come in?" He smiled and asked. I nodded.
  We got out and went inside my house.
   "There's soda in the fridge." I said. He nodded. I took off his jacket and extended my arm to give it to him. He just looked at his jacket and me.
     "What are you doing?" He asked.
"Uh giving you your jacket." I laughed.
    "Keep it. It looks better on you." He said. I blushed.
   He wanted me to have his jacket. I put it back on. I turned to move my book bag to the table. When I faced him again he attacked my mouth with his. The kiss was rough and sloppy. I tried to slow it down and make it more gentle. I pulled on his hair and he pushed me against the wall. He pulled away giving us both a second to breath. We walked into my room and kissed some more these ones were more tender and not as sloppy. He pulled my hair making my head go back giving him full access to my neck. He attacked my neck next. I could feel the hickies forming but I didn't care. He moved back to my mouth and we kissed some more. Then there was a knock at the door. He sighed and groaned. I laughed and pushed him off of me. I stood and went to answer the door.
