A guy like Cody

Part 7

So when the bell rings my friends walk me to my locker and I stand there waiting for him. It doesn't take him long to get to me. I can hear him before I see him. He's talking loudly with a couple of friends, doing some type of handshake and making his way over to me. As he gets closer I drag my gaze away from him and back towards my phone.
"Hey, so you wanna go for a walk?"
"Uh, sure. I guess"
We walk out past the fence that marks where school campus ends. We don't follow everyone else that's headed into town. Instead he takes me down the road next to the main one. Suddenly we're almost completely alone. We walk through a bike path and he stops me. He grabs me, pulls me into him, and kisses me once again but this time I pull away. I want to tell him that I don't want to do this. I don't want to be just another girl that he has a thing with. I look up at him and it's as though he could already see it on my face.
"You know, I really wanna make you mine" he says reaching out for my hand.
"I thought you said I would be yours if you wanted me to be?"
"Well, i want you to be but... uh... well, what about you? What do you want?"
"I don't know. I never know what I want. The only thing I know is that I don't want to be just another girl you date then dump"
"No, that wouldn't happen. You're special Grace"
"Shut up, you say that to every girl"
"No, well maybe but with you I truly mean it. What will it take to get you to trust me?"
"Prove to me that you're trustworthy"
"And how exactly do I do that?"
"Well, you said you wanted to make me yours. If you're serious about it, prove it"
"Like, ask you out?"
"Yeah. If you're serious about wanting me, then why not?"
"Damn, okay. Grace is there any chance you would want to be my girlfriend?"
"Um... nah" I say with a giggle " I'm joking, if you really want this then so do I. But I'm warning you now, I'm not putting up with any of your bullshit. You fxck this up one time and I'm done"
"Fair. So, now can I kiss you?" He doesn't wait for an answer, he just takes my eye roll as a yes. He slides his hands down my body and I think he's going to grab my ass but instead he grabs me and lifts me up, placing me on the wooden fence that goes along the bike path. Now I'm almost the same height as him. We continue to kiss until some of his idiotic friends walk by and make fun of us.
"You got another slut Cody?" The idiot says it as if I'm not there
"Hey! Have some respect for my girlfriend you asshole!"
"You're girlfriend, wow! You've got him hooked." This time he acknowledges me. I barely hear the last of their argument. I'm Cody's girlfriend, that's something I never thought I'd hear. Now not only do I know it but so does that whole group of people that just walked by, and it never takes long for them to start spreading rumours.
