My Naughty Lover ✔️

Chapter 54

Zac's POV

"What was that dude?" Erik asks once Scarlette is out of here.

"I got no idea, man." I confess.

"Man she's a hot mess." he says and I look at him with a threatening look.

"Back off dude." I say through gritted teeth.

"It's not as if she belongs to you. You messed up, remember?" he provokes me. The fuck is wrong with him now.
I walk away ignoring his shitty comment.

I'm so thankful that I have maths class right now. I head eagerly into the classroom and I look at our usual seat. She is seated there, but with another dude. What the fuck? I walk towards them and I ask the dude to go away. Obviously he listens to me. Scarlette rolls her eyes at me. She fucking did that! I take a seat next to her but then Isabella out of nowhere, shouts my name,

"Zac! I left you a seat next to me." she says, with her chirpy voice. Who cares about her seat?

"I don't care, I'm sitting here." I say while turning back.

"But-" before she can continue, I turn to Scarlette.

"I like your outfit." I tell her and I expect for her to blush but no, she looks at me with a smirk and she says,

"I know you do." she says. What is this feisty attitude? I like it. "But it's preferable if you sit next to her, she seems she's about to go crazy." she says while showing a funny expression and I shake my head.

"My seat is here, remember?" I try to act calm.

"Oh was it?" she raises an eyebrow. What the hell. This is not the girl that I knew two weeks ago. I don't reply to her as I'm still processing her attitude.

The teacher enters the class and she takes out her book. She's still the same, I guess. A good girl. I smile at the thought. The teacher gives us classwork and she does it while concentrating. She looks so beautiful. Her handwriting is very neat and attractive, like always. I look at her tucking her hair everytime.

"Hey." I whisper so that the teacher won't hear.

"What is it?" she asks.

"I'm sorry for behaving like this the other day." I apologize and she says,

"Yep. No problem." with a calm expression.

"Are you sure though?" I ask and she nods.

"But-" she interrupts me by saying,

"Shush, stop talking or else I might bite that tongue of yours." and I look at her with wide eyes. Okay. She sure is not that same shy Scarlette. I keep staring at her and soon the bell rings.

"You should have taken a picture, it would have lasted longer." she smirks at me and she leaves.

What's wrong with me?? Why am I speechless ? Never in my life has a girl talked to me like that. The worst part is that I'm actually enjoying this. I was always the dominating one, but now what the heck?

"Zac!! What the heck is wrong with you??" Isabella shouts while standing in front of me!

"What do you mean?" I ask calmly.

"Why the fuck were you seated next to her?" she yells in my ears.

"Stop yelling for god's sake!" I exclaim.

"Excuse me?" she puts her hands on her hips.

"I will talk to you later." I say and leave the classroom.

"Are you kidding me?" Max asks. I told him about Scarlette but he wasn't buying it, I guess. We are currently in the field, practicing for our big game.

"But it seems like she's no longer interested in me." I say.

"What makes you think like that?" he asks while kicking the ball.

"Just, Because." I say remembering how she was okay with Isabella sitting next to me.

"You are probably just overthinking." Max says.

"I don't know." I say, while kicking the ball back to him. "What should I do though?" I ask.

"Hmm, I don't know." he shrugs his shoulders. "By the way, dude, I have to stop by the library later." he says.

"Library?" I ask and he nods,

"Yeah, I have some reading to do. My Sociology isn't that good." he says and suddenly a bulb lights up in my head.

"Man! you're a genius!" I exclaim.

"Yeah, I know." he says, "but wait, why?" he asks, while scratching his head.

"Nothing nothing. I'll get going. See ya later." I say running back to the locker room.
