The Bad Boy's Gang

Chapter Three - Dodge Ball Bet

Chapter Three – Dodge Ball Bet

Ariana’s POV

I woke up the next morning drench in sweat. My face was burning up, as my breathing uneven. I couldn’t stop replaying what happened in the alley way. How close Maddox came to shooting that guy. The murderous look in Maddox’s eyes as he peered down at his prey like the is worthless.

Deciding that a nice cold shower will help me relax, I jumped out of bed grabbing a clean set or lingerie and a pair of black leggings, and a jumper. No way in hell will I be showing up at school today, not after what I had witnessed.  Once in the bathroom, I turned on the shower and stripped down and braced myself for the cold welcoming. The ice cold water flushed against my skin washing away last night’s nightmare. Once I felt relaxed I slowly turned the water onto a warmer climate and felt my muscles relax.

Once I was done, I dressed and headed downstairs to whip myself something good to eat. The best thing about not having anyone around is that there is always so much food around. I only really need to shop once a week, to mainly by the dairy goods that expire after a few days. Grabbing out the bread, I placed two slices into the toaster and grabbed the Nutella. Once the toaster popped, I spread the hazelnut goodness on top, possibly way too much put who am I too judge my own fabulous creation.

I sat at the kitchen counter, eating my chocolaty goodness when my phone interrupted me. Pulling my phone out, I answered it without bothering to look at the caller ID.

“Hey Bambi” a husky voice filled my ears, as I dropped my toast, making a small sound as it connected back with my plate

“I, u-uh, how’d you g-get my n-number?” I stuttered

“I'm a man with many ways Bambi. Where have you run off too this morning? Too afraid to face me after our, let’s say, interesting night?” he said, I could practically hear the smirk in his voice, the ass.]

“Pssht! No! Of course not! I just, uh… I'm not feeling well! Yeah I'm not well, so yeah, gotta go!” I hung up, lightly throwing my phone on the counter.

I'm so totally fucked.

After my ‘sick day’ (that I totally didn’t really want to take) I decided to man up and face that beautiful piece of ass. No matter how hard I try, I know I will not be able to avoid him. I can’t hide at home forever, thought right now as I pull into the school parking lot; it seems like a great idea.
Sighing I parked my black Audi CLS into the nearest vacant spot, and shut off the engine. Pulling my book bag from the passenger seat I made my way out of the car, pressing the lock button in process.

I slowly made my way to the big double doors, looking around like a meerkat to see if I could spot Maddox. And luckily, he wasn’t here.

Yet.

I smiled and made my way through the school doors, heading towards my locker. My smile grew as I saw my group of friends huddling around it, waiting for me. I slowed down, hiding behind people, as I crept my way up to them. I shot my hands out grabbing onto Zoey.

“BOO!” I yelled, making everyone especially Zoey scream, and jump away from me. I started to laugh hysterically as I watched all of them cling onto each other. My eyes started to water, and my ribs hurt from the intense laughter.

“Oh ha, ha, laugh it up Rivera” Piper said, scowling at me. I snickered at her reaction, and went to unlock my locker.

“So where were you yesterday chika?” Lilly asked, touching away at her touch phone.
