The Bad Boy (Jack Gilinsky)

Chapter Forty Three

I don't know why I had this idea that things would be exactly the way they were before I left. Because they definitely were not, they couldn't be more different. It was almost as if everything did a complete 360 degrees flip. Jack and Sam were back to being best friends which seemed weird. Maybe they bonded over their hatred for me once again. Even though Sam told me he didn't,I could feel he was holding a slightly grudge because I lead him on for so long. But Jack made it no secret that he couldn't stand me.

Although it wasn't completely bad. I hadn't seen or heard from Lexi since she left and there was no sign of her coming home soon. Also, one of the weirdest changes that had happened that was the girls I used to be friends with (Maggie, Lauren etc) all seemed to worship me for some reason. They followed me everywhere. I was flattered but it was a little annoying, it kind of felt like I was babysitting them or something. It also meant I couldn't do anything secretly, because they trailed behind me everywhere.

"So Kendall, what are we going later?" Lauren asked leaning her head on her hands. "Eh..I don't know about you but I'm going to do some homework probably" I told her, slightly freaked out by her enthusiasm. "Oh come on, let's doing something fun.." She groaned. "Not tonight, maybe some other time" I told her, trying my best to be polite. "Okay, I think there's a party on Friday, you should come!" She persisted. "No no, me and parties really don't mix" I said shaking my head. "Think about it anyways.." She said. "Okay.." I said just to shut her up. "I'm going to get a drink" I said standing up. "I'll come with you!" Lauren exclaimed. "No!..I mean no, that's okay" I said flashing her a forced smile.

Unfortunately, the walk to the vending machine meant I had to walk right past Sam and Jack. I held my head high as I walked by them. I heard Jack fake cough and say "Slut" Under his breath. I let out a deep sigh before turning around. "Sorry did you say something?" I said glaring at him, as I leaned on the table. "Oh did you not hear me? I called you a slut" He said with a blank expression. "That's rich coming from you" I said glaring right back again. "Well at least I'm open about it, you're a secret slut. You try and convince people you're this good girl but you're really just a whore" He said, loud enough for anyone in the vicinity to hear. "Jack come on.." Sam pleaded with him. It took every once of my being not to slap him across the face.

I clenched my teeth unable to think of a good enough response. "You're an asshole" I said between my teeth. He moved closer to me so he was merely inches away from my face. "Tell me something I don't know" He spat back in such a hateful tone. I stayed there staring into his cold eyes before jumping back up and began to walk away. Trying my best to hold back my tears. All I heard way Sam. "Uncalled for man".

"You okay?" I heard Maggie ask, but I just brushed her off. I walked the long way all the way to my locker. I didn't have anything in particular to get out of it but I didn't exactly have anywhere else to go. I used all my strength not to cry. I refused to cry. I refused to cry over Jack Gilinsky again. As soon as I opened the door, I heard footsteps from my left. I looked to see Sam walking towards me with a sweet smile. He stopped when he reached me. "Thought you would want this" He said handing me a bottle of water. I laughed to myself. "Thanks" I said taking it from him.

"Look, Kendall.." He began but I already knew what he was going to say. "Please don't apologise for him" I said shaking my head. "I'm not, I'm apoligising for me, I've been acting like a dick, ignoring you and stuff. I don't mean to it's just, things are finally good with Jack and me and it's been a long time since we've been good. And if he sees you with me he'll.." but I cut him off.

"Sam I understand, bros before hoes, I get it" I said shrugging. "No it's not like that.." He continued. "Sam it's fine, I understand okay?" I said. He opened his mouth to speak again but stopped. "I'm sorry Kendall" He said before walking away.

I sighed as I made my way to my next class, which ironically was Science. I was no longer sitting next to Jack, thank God. No I was sitting next to no one. Because I came so late in the year, there was an odd number. I didn't really mind though. Maybe now I could actually get some real work done.

Unfortunetly no such luck. I was distracted by the burning urge for me to fling the scalpel directly at the back of Jacks' head. Even the back of his head was pissing me off, because I could tell he was wearing a smirk the entire class, as usual. "Graduation is in less than 2 months. I hope you have all decided what you want to do with your lives" Mr Harris lectured on for the majority of the class. Which reminded me I should be getting my letters soon from colleges. The thought of that stressed me out even more.

"Kendall Kendall!" I heard the familar voice of Maggie calling from behind me. "What?" I asked as she walked beside me. "That was pretty intense today in the cafetieria huh?" She asked me. "Yeah...I don't really want to talk about it.." I said continuing to walk. "That was pretty embarassing huh?" She said ignoring my request. "Ugh, would you ever just fuck off" I said sourly, quickening my pace so that I could get away from her.

Bit of a filler, hope you enjoy anyways though x x
