"madelyn, what are you doing in my seat?"
before saying anything back, i pushed my hair out of my face sassily, to add a little fun
"grayson, today you're sitting at my place"
i don't know what it was, but i know emila told me to sit here for a reason.
he just look at me then em then me again.
"get out of my seat madelyn" he looked kind of intimidating but i wasn't scared. there was other people in here and if he were to do anything i'll just call for help.
"just sit at my place" i said while looking at him innocently.
he grabs my wrist, pulling me out of the seat, leaving loud bangs causing everyone to look over. luckily it wasn't class time yet.
i gave him a death stare, he raises his eyebrows and sat down.
i look over to emila. she rolled her eyes and mouthed the words 'whatever'.
i went back to my seat, if anything happens I'll be here.

"emila, i'm sorry. i only meant to joke with you" was the first thing he says after sitting down.
"how can I believe you? if i didn't escape, what would you do to me? i wouldn't know that."
he was upset, i can tell, but that's what he gets. i mean who the hell does that?
"look emila. i'm telling you i'm truly sorry"
i really didn't want his apologies. i couldn't care less. the anger boils inside me.
i just want my phone back so i don't have to talk to him.
"where's my phone?" i asked.
i expected him to tell me that he'll only give it back when i forgive him. but that didn't happen. he just handed it over.
it was kind of surprising but I didn't show it much. i just snatched it out of his hand as i let out a small thanks.
he kept trying to talk to me during our classes but i just ignored him. not gonna lie, i kinda feel bad.
that's what you get for messing with me.
after a long morning, lunch finally came. i walked with maddie to our usual spot. i places my tray of food down and start to eat.
that's when grayson came and sat next to me. the other girls were looking, jealous. someone come take your man. i don't wanna be sitting next to him.
"mad, let's go sit somewhere else." i didn't even look at him.
"huh? oh ok let's go." we moved to the table few block away from our usual one.
he followed and sat right next to me, again.
i sigh and rolled my eyes but just continue eating. he'll only follow me if i change my table again.
it was just silence. until he touched my thigh.
"em, i'm really sorry" i pushed his hands off.
"if you keep touching me, there's no way i'm forgiving you." i stood up and leave. madelyn followed behind closely.
"damn girl." she said.
the rest of the week went by very slowly.
each day i wished it would end.
grayson wouldn't give up talking to me so at one point i also gave up ignoring him.

it was now friday. usually i'd be home with madelyn doing some girls night or something.
well i was planning on doing that. but madelyn here wants to attend a party.
"emila if you don't go I'm going alone." she threatens me, as if i'd be scared.
i giggled. "yea go ahead" knowing she'll never go without me because we go everywhere together.
she cries and beg me like a child.
"can you just shut up?"
"not until you go with me" she puts on the infamous puppy eyes.
"you're so annoying" i told her. "but fine."
i give in and decided i'll just go with her. madelyn is never the type to get interactive with people. i'm sure she is going for ethan.
i wore a strapped-tube dress that goes up to my knees with denim jacket, pairing it with white air force 1s. basic white bitch, am i right?
madelyn picked me up and we both said bye to my mom and left. i told my mom i'll be sleeping at maddie's tonight so she doesn't have to wait up.
we entered the party. instantly, the smell of pizza, alcohol and electric cigarettes hits us.
we were greeted by some couples making out.
ew.
we agreed to have no alcohol, no smoke, no drugs, no sex. in other words we came for the food and dancing. oh, and not to mention to meet her crush, of course.
"cheers" i raised the cheesy pizza up tossing it together with madelyn's ones.
ethan walked over. "hi guys" he smiles
as the wing woman i am, i walk away to the dance floor, leaving them together.
i decided to go dance. no one knows me anyways. maybe i can make a few friends.
i walk in the crowd on the dance floor. the party lights were shooting everywhere, lights changing colors and the smell of alcohol, it made me a little dizzy.
i stepped out of the party area into the backyard where it was more quiet.
the only sound i could hear was, wind blowing and the party music lightly.
well, and sound of footsteps
the essence of strong cologne and alcohol diffuses to my nose.
familiar.
i looked back and there was, grayson.
he looked... amazing.
