Sweet Venom

13.) Confusion

Kayla's Perspective:

He's just staring at me now with a blank face and daze. No words, no laughing, no anything. I seen his jaw clench and hand rise. I wasn't expecting what happened next.

I slightly flinched as he caressed my cheek, still with a blank face. Wow I thought he was gonna hit-
He pulled my face closer to his, squeezing it really hard.

"Don't ever slap me in my face again. Okay!" He said in an angry whisper. I started tearing up because my face was hurting and I'm getting pissed, like don't grab my face.

"Okay." I said in a low tone. He crashed his lips against mine. I didn't really kiss back I just stood there.

I sat back down and he did too just staring at me. I was still a little pissed and annoyed. I hate when people grab my face.

"Fix your face."

I rolled my eyes at him as I picked up my scraps and started walking to the garbage before being stopped.

"Where are you going?"

"Where does it look like? Now let go of me." I said to him in an annoyed tone.

"Don't get smart with me."

"Oooh so now you're my momma? I could do whatever I want."

"Yeah just keep thinking that. Oh and on your way back, find a betta attitude cuz I'm not liking this one."

I rolled my eyes at him and walked away when he finally let me go. I started getting into my head. I just hate when he does this, be such a mean prick to me but he's truly a good guy. I know he is. He just has that ugly side to him, I mean everybody does. *sigh*

"Hey are you okay?"

I look over to see Jaden walking up to me.

"Yes I am."

"Wait. Are you crying?" He said turning me around as he caressed my arm.

"No. I'm not but you better stop." I said sliding his hand off me as I looked over seeing X giving us a death stare.

"Great." I said lowly looking at the ground.

"What? What's wrong? Just tell me." He said trying to get all close to me.

"Look just stay away from me okay! You're just making things worse." I said turning around throwing away my trash.

"How? What did I-"

"Look. Thanks for your concern but I'm fine okay. Just leavee it."

He just looked at me with a blank stare. Well a very concerned face.

"But Kayla-"

"Can you just stop being a freaking nuisance and mind your own business!" I said walking back to the table.

He just stood there with a confused, sad look on his face as he watched me go back to the table. Everyone was like "oooooohhh" but I flipped them off and told them to "shuttup". I seen X shift his stare from me to Jaden as I sat down. A smirk emerged on his face as he tried to make out with me.

"What the heck?!" I said pushing him off. I looked back to see Jaden already walking away-

"Why you even looking for that damn boy? Huh? You like him or something? That's why you not kissing me cuz of that prissy bitch!?" He said once again grabbing my face.

I tried pushing his hand off but it didn't budge.

"Get the fuck off my face."

He squeezed my face tighter. Tears started forming once again because this is painful.

"Now listen. Never. Speak. To. That. Boy. AGAIN." He said squeezing my face harder and harder by his every word.

"Do you hear me Kayla?"

*DING DING DING*

He released my face awoken by the bell. Saved by the bell again huh. I quickly got up trying to walk away but X caught up to me.

"My sweet lil pumpkin, I'm sorry okay. Please forgive me! I just lose my cool at times."

"Let go of me X." I said with the straightest face.

"Please forgive me. I truly do like you a lot..soo much that I may-"

"Save it X. Right now I just need to be alone. I like you too, but I can't deal with all this jealousy. You need to work on that and your anger."

X's perspective:

"I will okay. I'm so sorry Kayla. I'm such a fuck up. I've ruined the best thing to ever happen to me. I'm just a burden to you and I'll...I'll leave you alone forever. I'm sorry for ruinin-"

Kayla stopped me from walking away. I smiled to myself before letting her turn me around.

"Please don't leave me. You aren't my burden and you didn't ruin anything. Okay X! You're an amazing person, you just need to work on yourself. Okay?"

"No. I'm not amazing. You want me to leave you alone, so I'll leave you forever. It's best to cut things off now, so it won't hurt even more later on." I said walking away again.

Kayla ran after me. Yesss! She's coming back for me. She still wants me. If I keep playing hard to get and keep trying to leave she will want me even more and realize that she can't lose me.

"X please! Please don't leave me! We can work on this together! I need to work on myself and so do you. We can do it together." She said trying to smile at me to stop her tears.

"Nooo imma just-"

Before I could even finish, Kayla hugged me really tight telling me..

"Don't go X. Don't be like the others who left me."

Damn. I didn't realize how emotional she can get. I always thought she was just some really cool, tough girl, but she seems super soft on the inside. Maybe even broken.

"I won't ever. Promise me. Promise me you'll never leave Kayla! Promise!"

"I promise." She said hugging me again tightly.

And like that I got her right back in the palm of my hand.

Sorry this is kinda short I just felt like I should've ended it right there. Umm stay positive guys and keep ur heads high I love yah❤️.
