True to the Fang

Chapter 9

Of course he's here. And of course he comes just when I'm about to tell Donovan yes.

"I'm not with you." I say.

Has he gotten more attractive since I last seen him? I think he did. God, his face is so nice.

Wait.

How long was he standing there? Did he hear us talk about him? Oh shiiiit.

"Not yet." He says. I was confused, what did I say again?

Oh.

"It's never going to happen." I say, winking.

He looks me dead in my eyes. "You're mine." He hisses.

I look at him, unfazed. "Like I said, not going to happen." I seethe.

Tobias looks confused.

"Take a picture, it lasts longer." I snap, I turn around and face Donovan. "Yes, I would very much like to go on a date with you"

Who denies free food, am I right??

Well Hannah, so much for swearing off guys until college is over. Oh well. I need to get over myself and start "spicing up my life."

Donovan smiles. "Sweet, how about Applebee's?"

"I love Applebee's. Sounds like a date to me." I say, smiling.

"Alright, I'll pick you up on Friday at 7:00 p.m." he says. I smile at him and nod my head.

I turn away from the window and walk over to a bench nearby and sit down. Sienna follows after me. "Okay, two things. One, I can't believe you're going on a freaking date. And two, I can't believe you didn't agree with Tobias that you're his." She says, in awe.

"You said spice up my life. So I'm going on this date with Donovan. I told you already Tobias seems like a complete jerk. I mean seriously. He told me that I'm his and we aren't even together. I barely even know him." I snap.

"I thought it was kinda cute." She says, giggling.

Of course she did. I look over at the window and find Tobias, his eyes already on me. I roll my eyes and look back to Sienna, "Yeah, of course you do. It's only because you think he's hot. If he was ugly, it'd be a completely different story." I say.

"That's not true! I mean, looks are a plus though." She says smiling.

"They're not a plus if the whole guy himself is a douche." I snap.

"Just talk to him." Sienna says. "Maybe he will be more nice once you talk more."

I doubt that. Tobias literally looks like a dick. I'm sure he's not going to change his attitude because of me.

"I don't know, Sienna." I say, looking back over at Tobias. He now has his order in his hand and is giving Donovan a $10 bill.

"Suck it up and just do it." She says, smirking. "He's walking over so you better start talking."

I look back over towards Tobias and he's not there. I feel the weight shift on the bench and know instantly it's Tobias.

"Hey dude." Sienna says.

"Hey Sienna." He replies back.

I stay quiet. I don't really know if I want to talk to him.

He looks at me. "Cat got your tongue?" He asks, smirking.

God, he is so handsome. I'm so thankful Sienna told us to change before we left because I looked like crap. Especially in front of Tobias. He always looked so good.

"No. I just don't feel like talking." I say.

"You seemed pretty chatty a few minutes ago." He says, nodding toward the window where Donovan is.

I roll my eyes. "You jealous?" I smirk.

"Only a little, doll." He smiles.

I look down, blushing, not sure what to say. Tobias grins, "I'm surprised you didn't make any sly remarks."

"I'm in a good mood today, I guess." I say, Sienna gets up from the bench. "Well I'm going to throw my garbage away and then go to the bathroom." She says.

I nod my head. "Okay." I say. She walks off and Tobias moves closer to me.

"I'm sorry about the other night. I shouldn't have flirted with your friend and said what I said to you." He says.

I turn my head to look at him. "Why are you being so nice?" I ask.

"I don't know, I just figured I'd apologize. It was a little uncalled for." He says, looking down.

"I'm surprised. You have no sly comments or remarks for me. You seem like a total dick, but since you apologized I forgive you. For now" I say.

"Cool." He says.

I smile, maybe Tobias isn't a complete ass like he seems to be.

"Oh, also, you're not going on that date." He says, coldly.

And there it goes. The nice side of Tobias has went back into it's cave amd brought out the dick side of Tobias, once again.

"I do what I want." I snap.

"No you're not." He says, whispering. "I don't know who you are but you are special and you should be with me." He says.

I gasp at his words. "I don't have to be with you." I say.

He rolls his eyes. "Not literally, but you have to stay at my place so nothing bad happens." He says.

I look at him in confusion. "What do you mean?" I ask, scooting closer to him. He just looks at me. Sienna starts heading back towards us. "I can't talk about it here." He says.

Sienna gets to us and sits down on the other side of Tobias. "So how are you two making out?" She asks, smiling.

I'm about to tell her that Tobias is acting strange but he speaks first.

"I think we are good. She forgave me." He says, looking at me and narrowing his eyes smiling.

Sienna smiles, "That's good."

I look at Sienna. "So are you ready to go?" I ask.

"Yeah, sure. We can head out now if you want. I thought you'd like to stay for a while now that you and Tobias are cool." She winks.

"Tobias and I are not cool. I just forgave him. That doesn't mean we are best friends" I say, rolling my eyes.

"Alright." She says lowly.

"I'm ready." I say, getting up off the bench. I take my trash to the garbage amd dump it in. I start heading towards the car. Once I'm about to get in a hand grabs my arm and spins me around. I come face to face with Tobias.

I roll my eyes. This boy is going to be the death of me. "What do you want now?" I snap.

He doesn't say anything. He just grabs my cheeks and kisses me.

That's it for this chapter.

I'm sorry I haven't been updating much. I have a lot going on.

Plus, I feel like no one really cares that I'm writing so it's hard to stay motivated.

But I hope all of you are doing well and having a great day! 💚
