<P class=MsoNormal>Chapter Ten</P>

<P class=MsoNormal> </P>

<P class=MsoNormal>The next day of school I dressed in a black, beaded racer back tank top, ripped, light blue jeans, and blue and orange beaded gladiator sandals. I had straightened my dark hair to perfection and applied my makeup perfectly. I looked good, but there was still one factor holding me back from looking great. My busted lip.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>The night before was not a good one. Usually the fights would be every other day and since there was one the day before last night, I wasn't expecting it and I got sloppy. I mentioned that I had not gone to soccer practice and my dad flipped and we got into a minor scuffle which soon escalated when he found out that I wasn't captain of the team. </P>

<P class=MsoNormal>You see my dad was a basketball player in high school and college. He played for Villanova and led them to winning the NCAA. He was dedicated in the Villanova Hall of Fame as one of the best point guards to ever play at the school. So, naturally, my dad was intense about sports and expected us to be the best of the best because that was what he was: the best of the best. Well, I wasn't like him. I loved soccer, but it wasn't my life. I enjoyed other things too.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>I picked up Lauren and James who both fell asleep once their bodies hit the seats in my car. Lauren looked really cute. Her light brown hair was in its natural waves, which was unusual because she always straightened it, and flowing all around her heart shaped face. She was wearing this adorable black, satin one-shoulder top that was covered in little sparkly flowers and paired with washed out cut offs. I was tempted to steal her outfit off of her as she was sleeping. I was pretty sure she wouldn't even notice and would walk into school in nothing but her underwear and bra. I laughed at the thought.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>I pulled into the lot, cranked up the music so the Stoogies would wake up, and made sure when I got out of my car that I didn't nail the one next to mine again. We walked through the front doors and parted our ways early because I had been late getting ready that morning.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>I walked to my locker and was thankful that Tim wasn't making out with another slutty cheerleader on my locker. Instead, he was just leaning against it by himself with a smirk on his face. He looked hot in navy blue basketball shorts and a white football t-shirt through which I could see his nice, toned muscles. His hair was perfectly tousled and his eyes were perfectly blue. I wanted to jump him then and there, but instead I yelled at myself for being such a... such a girl!</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>"Hey, babe" he said with his eyes shining. He looked incredibly happy for some peculiar reason.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>"Uh, hey," I said standing in front of him. He grabbed a hold of my arm and brought me closer to him.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>"How's my sexy girlfriend doing?" He whispered in my ear. </P>

<P class=MsoNormal>Oh my God, he smelled so good.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>"Good," I replied nervously. I was starting to sweat and my mouth felt dry. Sweet Jesus, what the hell was wrong with me?!</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>He buried his face in my neck and breathed in deeply. "You smell amazing, Shmoopie, it's really turning me on."</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>I laughed uneasily. "If how I smell turns you on, Tim, then I'm scared of what's going to happen if we kiss."</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>He lazily placed his hands on my hips and leaned back onto my locker. "I cannot wait to kiss you, Jasmine," he said staring at my lips, "I really want to do it right now" -he looked back up at my eyes- "But, I know if I did it now, you might kill me."</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>"Damn right, Tim, you're much smarter than you look," I said kind of glad that he didn't kiss me, but I did have this really disappointed feeling growing in the pit of my stomach.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>His eyes went back to my lips and a crease formed in between his eyebrows. "What happened?" He asked gently brushing his finger over my busted lip.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>"I think you know, Tim," I whispered harshly. He looked up into my eyes, but I looked away and stared at the gray locker next to mine. It wasn't an incredibly interesting locker; I just didn't want to look into Tim's eyes.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>"Look at me, Jasmine," he said lifting my chin up with his hand. I looked at him and was taken aback with how sad his eyes looked. "I'm sorry. I wish I could make it better."</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>I mustered up enough energy to make my muscles form a smile. "Thanks, Tim, that means a lot."</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>He smiled back and pulled my head to his chest and wrapped his arms around me. I liked hugging him. I fit perfectly into his arms and he felt so good... not to mention he smelled really good too.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>The hug made me feel better as screwed up as that sounds. It just did.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal> </P>

<P class=MsoNormal>We walked to homeroom together and Tim insisted on holding my hand. People were looking at us weird. Guys were winking at Tim and giving him thumbs up and other rather inappropriate jesters and girls were staring at me with complete envy and hate. I felt like a piece of meat as people examined me and ripped apart my appearance with their eyes. I wanted to go home. Wait, no. I wanted to go to the library, not home. Home was even worse than school.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>"I don't like the way people are looking at me," I whispered into Tim's ear as we passed a group of younger girls who had completely stopped their intense conversation to look at us.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>Tim laughed. "Get used to it, Shmoopie. With a guy as hot as me, there's bound to be people staring. It comes with the package."</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>"You're so cocky, Timothy Lenoir. One day your head is going to get so big, you're not going to be able to hold it up with your neck and you're going to need a neck brace for the rest of your life."</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>He just laughed and let go of my hand and instead, wrapped his arm around my waist and held me close to him.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>I sighed and wrapped my hand around him too. It was awkward with my arm just being there in between his side and mine. I needed to do something with it! Tim glanced at me and I just shook my head and averted my gaze from him. I could feel his chuckle vibrate through his body and into mine. I liked it.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>************************************************************</P>
