Involved with the Bad Boy

Chapter 1

                           Cover by aestenne

Sitting in class, pretending to be listening and paying attention to what the teacher is saying when I'm seriously not catching up anything is my best cup of tea when it comes to poetry. Mrs Hattson's class is always boring reason why I'm always drowsy in her class.

"Raymond, am I boring you?"

I opened my eyes fully since I was actually starting to fall asleep. And does she really have to ask when it's pretty obvious?

"Not at all Mrs. Your lesson is very interesting."

I said with a fake smile and I'm sure she noted the sarcasm in my words.

"Raymond if you don't like my class, you can leave right away. You signed up for poetry not for sleeping lessons."

Does she really have to use my surname? I sat up straight like the serious student I'm supposed to be. She got back to explaining how to write poems. Boring. I lost focus the instant I began gaining it. I'd rather fantasise about meeting Ravi Dubey one of the days. I mean he got the looks, the attitude, hazel eyes and he's basically hot. Mrs Hattson's voice snapped me out of my thoughts again.

"Robson, if you are going to lay on the table like the lazy freak that you are, better just leave my class!"

Her high pitched voice shouted to the corner of the class where the bad boy was sleeping. I looked at the back just to find him packing his books in the bag and walking towards the front of the class. He stopped and faced Mrs Hattson.

"You really did me a great favour because I can't stand you or your stupid boring class either."

He said and left. Then the class was filled with laughter and whispers coming from learners. Mrs Hattson's face had turned red from the anger of being disrespected and embarrassment of being laughed at.

I hope she doesn't continue teaching. To my relief, the bell rang and I quickly stuffed all my books in the bag and walked out of the class with the rest of the students.

I could hear my stomach grumbling and I thanked God it was lunch time. I was surely hungry so I went straight to the cafeteria inside the school. I ordered my food and walked to our usual table were my two besties had already settled.

"Sup girls"

I greeted them as I took my seat. Gail answered me back and I wondered why Carol hadn't.

"What lessons do you have after lunch?"

I asked as I started eating my lunch.

"Got Arts and Guitar classes thankfully."

Gail responded and I glanced at Carol just to find her looking at her food and just playing with her food.

"I see someone's in a bad mood today."

I said glancing at Carol again who made no attempt to look at me. She's surely not the 'quiet girl' type. Something's definitely up.

"I'm good."

She responded dismissively.  And she's lieng to me.

"Since when did we start lieng to each other Carol?"

I asked trying to emotionally blackmail her into telling me what's bothering her. I swear if this Alan guy did something to her, I'll deal with him. Alan is Carol's boyfriend which I actually never liked.

"C'mon Carol what's wrong?"

She doesn't answer me for a while and when she looks at me, I notice she'd been crying.

"What do you want me to say Alice? That Ashley insulted me in front of the whole school after I found her making out with Alan? That she threw the fact that I was abandoned in my face? Is that what you want me to tell you?"

Carol said in a distressed tone and quickly ran out of the cafeteria.

"I'll go after her."

Gail said and left. That bitch Ashley will pay for this. I glanced at her table but she's not there, only her friends. So I looked at the only place she'd be if not with her friends and I was right. She was sitting on the Austin's lap and practically licking his face. Disgusting. She's such a bitch. I stood up and walked towards where she was. I didn't care whether she was sitting on the bad boy's laps or not, she would pay for making my bestie cry.I grabbed her wrist as soon as I reached the table.

"What the fuck?"

She swore the moment she got to her feet. She tried to free herself from my grip but I didn't let go of her. I gave her one last disgusting look before I gave her a punch just below her right eye.

"That's for making Carol cry. You know I hate it when bithces like you try to mess with my people. So if I were you, I'd stay away from them."

I said as I heard people shouting my name and some screaming 'fight'. We have attracted a crowd by now.

"She deserved what ever I did to her and what's there to even be angry bout if she was really aba-"

"Don't you dare even say it Ashley. If you know what's best for you."

I said clenching my jaw in anger. She then placed her hand below her right eye where I had punched her. It had already gotten black and I wish I could just bruise her whole face.

"You'll pay for this Alice."

"Sure sure I will."

I said sarcastically. She attempted to slap me but I caught her wrist just in time.

"Don't ever think you are better than me because you are not."

I said letting go of her wrist.

"Don't even compare yourself to me. I'm nothing like you. C'mon, tell me how many guys tried to get in your pants. None right? You're an unattractive bitch who thinks so high of herself."

She said and I gave out a sarcastic laugh. So she thinks I'm the bitch?

"Really, I can't agree that between you and I I'm the bitch. I mean what are you good at? Getting loose from all the manwhores you sleep with? Well lemme tell you Ashley, my dignity is worth much more than the guys I sleep with. And it's just unbelievable how you are so proud of being a toy that every guy toys with."

I said and walked away with so much confidence because people were actually cheering for me while they laughed at her.
