I Want You

"Are you jealous?"

I groan and slam my hand on the annoying alarm clock, before getting out of bed and shuffling to my bathroom.

My short hair was sticking up in different directions causing me to chuckle.

"Bex! Are you awake?" My dad asks from down stairs. I nod and then remember he can't see me.

"Yeah!" I sigh. I didn't feel like moving my mouth yet and it is way to early to be raising my voice.

I took off my clothes and hopped in the shower. As I washed up I started to remember the 'almost kiss' with Jordan. Did I seriously lean in and try to kiss her? We barely know each other...It's weird right?

I finish washing up and washing my hair before hopping out and wrapping myself in a towel.

Jordan had leaned in too...Did she want me to kiss her or was she caught up in the heat of the moment? I shouldn't stress about this, right?

Finally, I dried off and got dressed quickly as I glanced at the time. I blow dried my hair quickly and threw my shoes on, then grabbed my bag.

"I'm gone!" And with that, I ran out the door and hopped in my car, wasting no time getting out of there.

Jordan's p.o.v

I sat at the table and stared at the food my mom had placed in front of me, which was a bagel with some cream cheese on top.

Bex had almost kissed me...And I wanted it to happen! I leaned in too. Did they want to kiss me or was it just to tease me or get me worked up?

I look at the clock and grab the bagel before grabbing my bag and running out the door. On the way to my car I eat the bagel and quickly get in, wasting no time driving away.

As I parked in the lot, I could already see Bex leaned against their car in a leather jacket and ripped jeans, with a black band t-shirt.

I walk toward the door and Karson, Anna, and Beauty meet Bex and I as we walk in together, neither of us uttering a word to the other.

I turn the corner to get to my locker and I see Becca and her clique standing in front of mine laughing and having a conversation.
I feel a hand on my shoulder and I jump and turn around.

"Bex," I sigh in relief.

"Hey, didn't mean to scare you. " Bex glances around the corner and nods.

"Avoiding the three witches of the school?" They whisper as they corner me against the wall by placing both hands on either sides of my head, perfectly framing me to the wall.

"Uh...so what if I am?" I mumble.

"I could get rid of them you know?" They whisper as they glance behind them to see if anyone is there. I shake my head quickly.

"No, it's fine." I lower my head and stare at the tile floor.

"Okay, so then-" Bex is cut off when someone taps them on the shoulder. As soon as Bex turns around I see Becca standing there with a smile on her face.

"Hi, Bex, so I'm having a party tonight while my parents are out of town. You're invited and it's a plus one. " She flips her hair. Typical.

"Uh, s-sure, I'll be there." My eyes widen and I look back down.

"Great, wear something sexy." I could just hear the wink and "seductive smile" by the tone of her voice. I shudder in disgust and she struts away confidently.

"Jordan?" Bex whispers and I look up.

"Yeah?" My body feels cold and my mood suddenly drops to it's lowest.

"Um, do you want to go to that party with me?" I gulp and chew on my lip.

"I-I don't know. Becca and I can barely stand each other in school. I don't think being in the same house helps the situation any. " I mumble. 

"Alright, I won't go." Bex smiles.

"No, no, no, go ahead and have fun. You deserve it after everything you've dealt with. " I reply quickly. 

"Please come with me, or at least think about it. " I nod.

"I'll think about it." I walk away quickly and look down.

"Becca is straight and homophobic...she wouldn't take Bex away, would she?" I mumble to myself. Finally, I reach the door to the classroom and I walk in quickly.

As I sit down I notice Bex isn't here yet. Right on que, Bex walks through the door and mumbles something as they sit down. 

I avoided any small talk or glances the entire class but for some reason Bex seemed out of it. They kept zoning out and fidgeting. Finally they grab their phone out and I feel mine buzz. 

I grab my phone out and turn it on silent.

I wasn't trying to avoid Bex but I also didn't want to talk to them, if that makes any logical sense whatsoever.

They glance at me and sigh.

Bex's p.o.v

Did I do something wrong?... What if she doesn't want to hang out with me anymore...?

I attempt to focus on our teacher but I couldn't. It's almost impossible to focus knowing the possibility of me messing things up with her.

Finally I focus more and more throughout class and slowly begin to feel like I was ran over by a bus. The pressure I feel at the moment is unexplainable. It's like losing the attention of the person that means the most to you. When that happens your body will have the same reaction as it does with physical pain.

The bell rings and I walk out of the room and into the gym before anyone else. I change into my gym clothes and attempt to shake off the pain.

Jordan's p.o.v

When Bex stormed out of the room, I couldn't help but think it was too late to apologize to them. I gather my things and throw them into my locker before walking to the gym and changing in the locker room. I glance around as I walk out and I can see Bex cracking their neck and fingers. I cringe slightly. I have always hated doing that because of the popping noise.

P.E. went by faster than I had expected and honestly so did the rest of the school day.

As I rounded the corner I was suddenly pushed against my locker and I gasp and look up to see Bex. My eyes widen and I open my mouth to speak but Bex smashes their lips to mine and I smile into the kiss as I wrap my arms around them and pull them closer.

They pull away after a bit and I smile. Bex turns around as someone taps on their shoulder.

"Looking forward to seeing you at the party." Becca says. I glare at her and cross my arms.

"Yeah, thanks." Bex smiles and I huff slightly. Becca walks away and shakes her curly hair as she runs her hand through it. I continue to glare at her back.

"My God, if looks could kill." Bex mumbles before turning my head and deeply kissing me once more. I kiss back and smile as my body slowly relaxes.

"Are you jealous?" Bex smirks and bites at my bottom lip.

"Me? Jealous? Pshh! Ne-" Bex chuckles and presses their lips to mine in a soft yet firm kiss.

I pull away and chuckle lightly.

"We should go..." I mumble.

"Yeah..." They whisper and blush a bit and then slowly back away and leave. I sigh and touch my lips softly before walking out.
