Accidents II

Chapter 15

Mia's POV

When I pickup Dias' car, I hurry and grab myself a coffee on the way. I get out of Dias car and walk to class, glancing at my phone as a wide smile appears on my face when Damon texts me *Morning♥️*

It's the smallest things he does that make my heart literally beat so hard.

"What's the smile about?" I hear Edward holding a coffee as well.

"Nothing," I continue to smile.

"Hey..look, yesterday—coming to your place like that was probably..too much,"

"Um no, it's fine. I feel like we should talk about that—thing. Our friendship means a lot to me and we really need to clear it out,"

He nods and smiles. "After class?"

"Sounds perfect,"

Damon's POV

I put my textbooks into my gym locker, and slip my shirt off as well as my pants. I replace it with my gym clothes, wearing basketball shorts and our jersey.

"Yo,"

I turn around and find Austin putting his stuff in the locker next to me as well as Joe. The scratch is still carved in Austin's cheek.

I shut my locker ignoring him.

"Where were you last night-" Austin asks as he changes but I shove him to the side as I walk out of the change room to the gym.

Joe leads behind me and throws hoops with me for warmups.

"Yunno he told his dad that the gun was his," Joe says next to me as I keep throwing the ball in the net.

"Doubt they believed him," I say.

"True. They didn't at first, until he payed Xavier to confess the gun was his,"

"Where's Xavier now?"

"He's spending time at Austin's. He got kicked out of campus and is completely wrecked..yunno over maddie." Joe shakes his head.

"Why the fuck is he there?" I turn to face Joe.

"I know we all fucked up but-"

"Xavier better not open his mouth. I don't have a lot of chances on my plate," I cut him off.

Joe looks at me and nods reassuring what I tell him. "He won't,"

I know what Xavier does to girls. I know Joe and Austin did as well—probably still do it? I know Xavier hurts Maddie—yeah it's not okay, but it's really not my problem, I have Mia to look after. But since mia already knows, I know she'll fucking get involved because of how naive she can be. Maddie can't fucking drag her into shit that is between her and Xavier.

The coach puts us into separate teams. I look across me and watch Austin in anger. He's letting him stay at his apartment? How can someone be so fucking stupid?

The coach throws the ball up above Mine and Joe's head, making it fall in between us until I push it back on my side.

When it's my turn on having the ball, I dribble it towards the net. Austin tries to grab the ball from my hand, making us both tug at the ball.

I let go of the ball making him stumble a little back. I go up to him and push at his shoulders. I keep getting closer to him making no way of him to walk past me, as he tries walking off from me.

"Fuck off," he says.

"You letting him stay at you place now?" I scoff.

"So this is why you're mad?"

"I'm disappointed of how fucking brainless you are," I aggressively shove at his head with my hand, "do you have any respect for yourself? You letting him stay at your place shows how much of a pussy you are," I yell at him.

"Both of you, take this out of my gym. Now!" The coach shouts.

I push against the door hard as we both get out in the hall. I take a sip from the fountain as well as putting my whole sweaty face underneath the water. When I shake the access water off of my hair and face, a girl with an empty water bottle stares at me concerned as she puts water into her bottle when I move away from the fountain.

"I'm gonna tell him to leave," Austin begins as I walk towards him.

"When? Huh?"

"Not in awhile. Fuck! you don't understand," He puts his hands over his face. "He has a fucking video of me—doing something bad,"

"Bad like what?"

His expression turns into worry, almost looks like he's about to cry.

"I was so—drunk," he starts. "I didn't know what I was thinking," He starts crying now as he puts his arms over his head and pushes back his hair as he lets out a heavy exhale.

I softly slap his cheek, "you gonna let him blackmail you like that?" I say as I hold his head.

He gulps. "No,"

"That's right. You fuck him up. You show him how fucking crazy you can get. You have shit on him as well,"

"Yeah—yeah, I will!"

Mia's POV

"Talking about this..meant a lot," Edward tells me as we both walk in the hall when we finish our class. "Opening up to you like that makes our..friendship stronger,"

"Yes," i smile at him, "It really does and I'm glad we can move past this.."

I look towards what Edward is staring at as he uncomfortably shifts—it's Damon with Austin?

Austin gestures towards me which makes Damon turn to me. Damon lifts up his basketball jersey and wipes his face with it making his hard stomach reveal. Ughhh he is literally perfect.

Damon stares at Edward unbothered, as he pulls me into a hug, grabbing my butt and kissing me aggressively. My cheeks flush when I part our kiss and back away from him a little.

Damon continues to frown at Edward which makes me realize why he's acting the way he is. It's a way of him marking me in front of Edward. He can be so shallow, not only to Edward but to me as well.

"Mia!" I hear Dias coming towards me. "Did you bring my car?"

"Mhm," I nod with a smile.

"You need to have lunch with me, I have to tell you something!" She squeals.

"What is it about?" I get excited.

"Arthur," she says his name in an English accent.
