Fly Away To Chicago (Completed)

Chapter Thirteen- Try Again

Hot. Too hot. Can't breathe. Gotta get up.

I struggle to move & can't something heavy is blocking my way. I sigh & fall back.

Then I turn & poke Zack's arm. He flinches & I do it again. He groans & opens his eyes.

"What?" He grumbles.

I smirk. "It's hot & I want to get up. Can you move your arm?" I ask.

He sighs & nods. When the weight is gone I sigh in relief. Thank you. Smiling I sit up & glance at the clock.

2:47 at night.

God why?!

I sigh & change into a tank top & shorts before crawling back in the bed & drifting off again.

----------------------------------------

"Hayden?"

Poke.

"Get up sweet cheeks. We have school in 45 minutes." He says & I know it's Bennett.

I jump out of the bed & run to my closet.

The asshole only gave me 45 fucking minutes to get ready! Dick.

He chuckles & walks back out of the room. Zack had left sometime between now & when I'd woken up last night, but that doesn't matter much anymore.

I yank out yoga pants & plain white tee. I slip into them & grab my makeup. I do it quickly & brush my hair before putting it into a bun & moving on to jewelry. Of course I grab my dad's necklace & I chose diamond studs. Then I wrap & hot pink scarf around my neck, slip into socks, & my UGGs. For the final touch I pull on my black "Love Pink" hoodie from Victoria's Secret.

I smile at my handy work. Then I hear Bennett beep & I grab my bag before running to the car.

He's silent on the drive to school, but I don't mind. Actually I prefer it. He parks & we both walk in together & again we are stared at.

God that's really starting to bother me.

Suddenly Bennett grabs my hand & pulls me into a classroom. I barely notice it's empty before he slams me against the wall.

What is his fucking problem?

I grunt & scowl at him. "What are y..." But I'm unable to finish as he places a hand over my mouth then he puts a finger to his mouth telling me to be quiet.

"I have a plan." He says.

I furrow my eyebrows & nod.

His expression darkens. "It was the only thing I could think of on short notice. You might not like it." He says & looks at me wearily.

Oh no.

"I talked to Carter & he said that people would lay off if they knew you were dating someone & he suggested Lyle or Mason. You could just kiss one of them whichever you wanted & then people would stop running their mouths, but you have to remember to play it up in the hallways & at lunch so they know." He says & looks at me seriously.

That's not so bad.

"Don't worry Mason & Lyle are cool. They won't be assholes to you either, but I can't say the same for Patrick." He mutters.

I nod & smile. "Good idea. Now you just have to introduce me." I say & poke his arm.

He chuckles & backs up. He holds out a hand & looks at me expectantly. "Come on." He says.
