Falling in love with a jerk

Part 5 : Mason

The next day, I went back to school. I must be extra careful this day since I'll be in the watch of the mighty Seth Troian. At this moment, I didnt know what to think of him. It was difficult to think of him one way, at the beginning he seemed like the devil itself but yesterday, when he had tried to grab me from falling down. He was so unpredictable! As I entered the building Isabelle literally flew at me.

 "Gab! Are you alright!? I heard that you got into a fight with Seth! Did he hurt you badly?" she looked genuinely worried.

 I smiled at her. "Actually Isabelle, I was the one hurting him." I pointed the way Seth was walking. She looked at him curiously . He had bruises in various places,mostly on eyebrow and jawline, his lip was also cut. He looked pale as ghost and looked like he could barf at any moment.I couldnt have done anything about the paleness but other than that, was my fault. He stumbled along the corridor and everyone stared at him. I could hear the whispers of people questioning Seth's bruises. I smiled mockingly. He glared at me as he walked in front of me.

Isabelle looked at me: "Wow, did he piss you off again?" she asked.

"Yeah, kind of." I said as I walked to my class.

In the break, I heard whispers like, "He is back?"

"What, he is?!"

"Oh, we are so dead."

I wondered who it was, maybe it was the person who carved the loser into Gabriel's back. I needed to find him. Isabelle was in the corridor, talking to someone. I cut between them and asked: "What's all this?"

Isabelle looked shocked but grabbed my arm and moved me to the other side of the locker. "Look Gab. I know this will terrify you. I guess you didn't get the news." She stopped and looked at me. I was bored, waiting for an answer from Isabelle. I made a face that said meant I was extremely bored "He is back, Mason. You remember him, right?"

He should be the one my brother was talking about, I will beat him down and do the same things as he did to my brother, that sick fuck won't get away with what he had done. I nodded to her scowling directly at her while thinking of him. "Um, Did I say something wrong?" 

I looked at her. "Uh, no, sorry, I dozed off."

She said ,while looking at me with some kind of pitying look. "Alright then, I'll get to my class Gab." She walked towards the lockers ,then stopped and turned to me again. "Look Gabriel. If I were you, I wouldnt go after him. He is too powerfull even for you." 

I didnt expect that from Isabelle, I nodded with wide eyes. She then smiled at me and walked away.

Then there was silence, it was like the whole hallway stopped talking. I looked at the back of the hallway and there were footsteps echoing. And then I saw them, walking down from that hallway. Three person was there, one was in the middle and the other two was on his sides. They looked like they owned the fucking building, it pissed me off.

As they got closer, I could see how they looked. The one on the middle that I assumed to be Mason. But I didn't know the other two, Mason was awfully tall and he had a scar that ran down from his face to his upper lip. The one on the left was buffy and looked like he had a lot of fat but the other one was skinny I couldn't understand how he would be able to hang out with him Mason of all people.

I gulped and attempted to step on the way they walked but someone grabbed my arm and I was pulled into an empty classroom. I looked at the person who grabbed me with rage. It was Seth, I quickly pushed him away and he felt down. "What the heck!?" I shouted at him.
