I'm Only Human - { NOT }

Chapter 2 - That's my bestfriend

Lani Pierce

I've been sitting on the roof of Heathen High School for over 15 minutes sipping on a cup of coffee. I wonder if it's the right one ? I mean, it was the closest one I could find that fit the description and smell Theodore gave me when he was telling stories about his days.

I looked up at the sound of another 3 cars pulling into the parking lot and spotted Theo's silver BMW amongst them. I stood up, placed my two pinky fingers in my mouth and let out a loud whistle.

His attention and a couple others were caught. He jogged over and frowned at me.

"Took you long enough." I said smirking.

"Get. Down." He ordered.

"Fine." It was my turn to frown as I began making my way down the tree attached to the side of the building. When I was infront of him, he grabbed my arm and began pulling me towards the big blue doors as I grumbled about him being rude and him agreeing.

As soon as we went through the doors, I could hear EVERYTHING. They were whispering and pointing all the while not caring if they were spotted.

"Why is someone as hot as her with that weirdo ?" Was the comment that caught my attention and the boisterous laughter that followed. It came from a boy with brown hair and blue eyes, he was surrounded by two other boys. I knew Theo heard, because for a second I felt his grip on my hand tighten and the muscles in his back tense.

I skillfully removed my hand from his grasp without him noticing and began walking over to their group when it hit me - Cinnamon & Mint, yet none of them had Red Eyes.

I stopped infront of the one who spoke and saw the surprise on his face when he noticed me. One of his friends had platinum blonde hair and he shot me a smirk, while the one with the jet black hair shot me a scowl. Ok then ??? The blonde one is definitely the flirt.

"Hey." He said flashing me a dimpled smile.

"Mate ! Mate !" Allison screamed excitedly. 

There is NO way in hell he's my mate. I don't even know him.

"Look," I began eyeing him up, "Your definitely hot but that's not why I'm here."
"Then what do you want ?"

Uh, cocky much ???

"Look Jace," I said watching his confused face, "What you got against my friend ?"

"You talking the weird dude with the grey eyes ?"

"West. Theo West. He's not a weirdo." I replied clenching my jaw.

"Your right," he started laughing, "He's a fucking retar-" I cut him off by hitting him square in the nose. He slammed backward into the lockers groaning, which drew all the attention and all talking ceased.

"The hell you do that for !?" He replied glowering at me.

"I don't take lightly to the people I care about being fucked with. Watch. It." I turned on my heels with a smile plastered on my face and walked off. As soon as I rounded the corner, I walked right into Theo. He began ranting.

"I was wondering where you were. When did you let go ? No, why did you let go ? Did you hurt anyone ? Why the hell are you smiling ? Are you sure your not mental ? Lani ans-"

"Theo." I said cutting him off.

"Sorry." He replied shooting me a toothy grin.

I don't know why people hate or trouble my bestfriend. I mean He is haawt. He's a red head with freckles and has silver eyes. He's really fit, like really fit. He has an impressive amount of muscles and just the right amount of body fat, in all the right places. He acts innocent, but he's a flirt, he's cheeky and he's smart.
