Just Because I Met You

Chapter 4

I woke up, cramped in a small space and appeared to be looking up at trees. I blinked, confused. I sat up to only see I was asleep in the backseat of my car.

"They left me in the fucking car? Are you serious right now..." I whispered to myself. I looked out the window and seen we were at Dylan's get away cabin that his parents got him. I was about to go inside and raise hell.

I opened the door and stomped to the door, twisting the door knob. The door was locked. I reached on top of the door and got the key to unlock it. Once I walked in, I was greeted by Cali in the kitchen with Dylan and him shirtless, then Jaycee laying across the couch on her phone. My head grew hot. Dylan seen the look on my face, "Ari, it wasn't me who left you in there. I swear."

"You! Don't talk to me. I don't care what you have to say!" I unexpectedly snapped at him. I guess I was still quite upset about last night.

Jaycee looked at me, "I don't even remember last night, Ari. But I'm pretty sure it was Dylan who said to leave you in there."

I shot Dyl a glare. "It was him..and I'm sorry.." He said with sincerity in his eyes.

"Where's Jared?" I asked.

Jaycee pointed in the right direction showing a body covered up on the floor. I walked over and lunged my foot back to kick the shit out of him. All of a sudden, his hand grasped my ankle as hard as he could. His eyes were closed. How did he know?!

"Think before you decide to do something, because if I really wanted to, I could crush your ankle with one more hard squeeze." He threatened.

I gasped and squealed, "Let. Go!" I demanded tugging and pulling my ankle away from him. He had a good grip, and at the moment I really thought he was going to crush my ankle with how harsh and scary he sounded.

He finally let go, at the same time I tugged making me fall back onto the floor.

"Aye, bro be gentle with her." Dylan demanded.

Jared sat up, and opened his eyes, "She just tried to kick me. Excuse me for trying to defend myself against that bitch.." He glared at me.

I held my ankle as I sat on the floor, whimpering softly. That hurt..

"What did she do to you?!" Jaycee asked.

"I tried to be nice to her after she basically got rejected by Dylan, and she wanted to snap at me and tell me she didn't need my sympathy. And you know this, Dylan, I'm blunt towards everything and don't give a fuck. Its rare when I try to be genuinely nice to someone. And this one time I try, she gets all bitchy, so that was my first and last time with her."

I rolled my eyes at him. I never really hated anyone, I just strongly disliked people but this one is certain and certified. I hate Jared.

"He what?!" Jaycee exclaimed after I told her what happened with Dylan last night.

We were at my house in my bedroom, in my bed watching Netflix and eating Birthday Cake ice cream.

I nodded, "Yeah." I stuffed a spoon full of ice cream in my mouth.

"That jerk! So then that was when Jared tried to be nice and then you cursed him out, out of anger?" She side eyed me.

I smiled, "No, I cursed him out because I hate him."

Jaycee threw her spoon down, "Seriously Ari? He was trying to be nice! You heard the guy back at the cabin. Its rare when he tries to be nice!"

I pointed my spoon at her, "Exactly. A guy who rarely tries to be nice and doesn't give a fuck about anything deserves to be hated."

"Whatever Arianna."

I squinted my eyes at her, "Are you lightly salted right now? Why are you so against me hating him?"

"Because he's hot."

"Did you two sleep together?" I questioned. Her mouth dropped to the floor.

"No!"

I jumped up on the bed, "Yes! That's why I got left in the car so I wouldn't know!"

Jaycee started laughing, "Arianna, stop talking nonsense. We really didn't sleep together. Yet." She stated laughing some more. "You know I would tell you!"

I shrugged, "I don't know..if I hooked up with a sexy dick head I wouldn't say anything either." I smirked, but then stopped when I realized something. Jaycee stared at the ceiling sinking in what I just said. She smiled and pointed at me.

"Shut up."

"No! You just called Jared sexy!"

I held my hands up, "I didn't mean to say it! It slipped. I was saying it from your point if view."

"No no no! You finally admitted it!" She laughed and I slapped her arm laughing along with her.

My mom knocked and came inside.

"Hey momma Sandra." Jaycee smiled and wave.

My mom smiled , "Hey honey. What are you chicas doing?"

"Netflix, Ice cream, sulking in our girl talk." I said.

"Sounds fun. But I'm going out with Trina for some Starbucks." She said.

My eyebrows scrunched up together, "Whose Trina and I want some Starbucks.." I said a mouth full of ice cream.

Mom looked away, "Talk with your mouth closed Jane. And Trina. The girl I went clubbing with last night. I used to go to school with her, and she's in town moving in. So we've been hanging out."

I nodded, "Oh that's neat. Now you can finally come out the house."

Mom laughed, "You're right. Its fun."

"So we're going to come with you okay? I'll buy for us two, plus it'd be nice to meet your friend Trina." I told her.

Mom was going to protest but before she could Jaycee and I raced out the door with our shoes to the car.

Meet Jared Chieftan.
