The Bad Girl Everyone Hates

Chapter 12 - Closer to love

I walked out of Calum's house with my heart still burning with fury. How dare they did this to me? Can my life gets any better at this point?

My train of thoughts were cut off as I felt a hand grabbed my wrist. I turned my head just to see Isaac standing there with a concern look.

"Why are you still here?" I said after I recovered from the shock that he had not left yet.

He released my hand and put both of his hands into the pocket of his jeans. "Well...I kinda have a bad feeling about this Calum dude...so...yeah." He rubbed his neck awkwardly.

"Wow, your instinct is spot on. I just caught he sleeping with my friend." I said nonchalantly as I stride towards his car and hop on.

"What the hell! Do you want me to beat his sorry ass? Just say it and I'll go in an instance." He looked like he was ready to kill someone at the moment.

I just shake my head in refusal. "Don't waste your time on someone who is not worth it. Besides, I already take care of this." I smiled as I scrolled through Faith's instagram profile who was now bombarded with lots of insults and hate comments.

"If you say so." He shifted his body on the driver seat so that he would face the road and switch on the engine and drift away from the neighbourhood. 

"Where are we going?" I finally asked after I finished reading all the comments on Faith's instagram. One thing I learned today, if people ever caught cheating, the woman will always had it worst even though both party were wrong.

"To my house." He said as a matter of fact.

"Hell no! I didn't mean to be rude but I think I can just crash at any hotel before I find a place to stay." No way I could stay with his family and be reminded about how bad my family was compared to his every second. I would die.

"Nah, this time you don't have a say in this." He looked at me briefly. "Besides, you're underage, you need to be under adult supervision, wether you like it or not. Just stay with us until you are legal to live on your own." He said rather firmly which left me kinda speechless and since I have no energy left for any drama today, I just surrender.

When I arrived at his house, I was warmly welcome by Maria and Blake Donovan. Skipped all the drama parts, I was now settled in one of the guest room. It was not as big as my room but big enough for a normal person. It's just I was used to bigger things.

I had showered and now laying on the bed with AirPods on both of my ears  listening to my favourite songs. I was almost drifted to dreamland when I heard someone knocked on my door.

Lazily I woke up and walked to the door. I opened the door and found Ian standing in front of my room in a black wife beater and short. His face was void of emotions, still, same as this morning.

"Dinner time." He said briefly with a boring expression on his face. 

What the hell is wrong with this guy? Did I do anything wrong to him or something? Because as far as I remember, I was nothing but polite to his family. I had never been this polite to anyone else before, so what the hell is wrong with him?

"Hey, what is wrong with you?" I asked bluntly as he was about to walk away.

He stopped mid way and turned to face me. "What do you mean?" 

I stepped out of the room and walked towards him so that now we were both standing few meters apart. "I mean, I'm not that dumb to notice that you don't like me." I crossed my arms against my chest, looking at him straight into his blue eyes.
