Playing His Little Game

07 - Yelling

SO sorry that this took so long to get out! I'm really busy right now, sorry!

On another note, I'm so close to 1000 fans! I promise to do something for that when the time comes too :)

Since everyone was doing a practice test on their own, I stepped out from behind my desk, and went to where the teacher stood.

“Hi,” I said in my teacher’s pet voice. “Can I use the restroom?”

“Are you done with the practice test, Melody?” he asked as he crossed his arms over his chest.

“Well, not yet.”

“Then go have a seat and finish then ask me when you’re done.”

“But Mr. Turner,” I had my face fall. “It’s an emergency. A female emergency, if you understand what I mean.”

It was funny how fast his face turned red. “Then go on ahead, Melody. I’m sorry for keeping you waiting so long.”

I turned and walked to the door after grabbing my bag first, grinning in victory, and made my way to the old meeting place. I couldn’t help but be nervous, though. How was Blake going to react? He wasn’t really one for confrontation so why would he call me to the spot?

I stopped before I turned the corner, fluffed up my hair, and breathed out. Once I walked around, I saw Blake standing there against the lockers, fiddling with his fingers. He looked up when I approached and immediately stood up straighter.

“I didn’t think you would come,” he said awkwardly as he ran his fingers through his hair.

“Why wouldn’t I?” I raised an eyebrow.

“I don’t know,” he put his hands in his pockets like just talking to me was making him feel self-conscious. It probably was, knowing him. “I just thought you’d still be mad or something.”

“Well, I’m not.”

Cue the awkward silence.

“Look, Blake. I’m pretty sure you didn’t summon me here to talk about how you think I’m mad when I’m not. There has to be a real reason why you did this—“

“I want us to get back together.”

Plot twist.

This made me gap at him. I expected to be yelled at because I’m already making out with different guys shortly after our breakup or the fact that I’ve been partying and such, but I definitely did not expect this.

Get back together with Blake? I knew my answer as soon as his words left his mouth.

“Hell no.”

I turned on my heel and left Blake staring at my back. In fact, I practically ran into the girl’s bathroom, heart pounding furiously in my chest, and my face all red. Why would Blake ever want me back? He’s been gone all last week after he broke up with me and now he wants us back together?

How flattering.

I took out my phone and sent a quick text to Noah saying how I had to leave school now and he better drive me away. His response came two minutes later.

Of course, girlfriend. Is your period late? Has all your kinky hookups come back to bite you in the ass and now you’re pregnant? I’ll hold you hair back when you pee!

I don’t have the patience for your sass right now, Noah.

I left the bathroom and went to his car. He hadn’t gotten out of class yet so I sat on the hood, laying back with a groan. My hands spread out on the cool metal and I smiled.
