Taking A Bullet

Chapter 4

Chapter 4:

As I walked into my first period, I was greeted with silence and staring eyes all locked on me. The expression on all of their faces was pure horror. Clearly news spread fast in this school. I ignored them all with ease and walked down the aisle looking for a spare desk.

I felt a sudden tug on my arm. I turned to glare at the person responsible, only to be greeted by a smiling Jarrad. I rolled my eyes at him.

 As I sat in the seat next to him, I got a sudden glimpse of his T-shirt. OH MY GOD! Before I knew what I was doing, I lunged at him. I grabbed his top to stare at it. This was the 2009 tour shirt for La Dispute! The one that I was missing in my collection, the rarest La Dispute tour shirt there was. I wanted it!

 I heard someone clear their throat and I looked up to see Jarrad, he had a knowing smirk on his face. Immediately I let go of his shirt and straightened myself up. Crap why did I have to lose control like that?!

 "...sorry, I um... Really like that shirt?" It sounded more like a question than a statement. Great, now I look like a freak. He smiled.

 "You like em'?

"Huh?" What is he talking about?

 "La Dispute, you like the band?" He asked grinning from ear to ear.

 Okay Lilly don’t go all fan crazy right in front of this guy. He will definitely think you are weird then. “Yeah they are okay”

 “Just okay?” He raised his eyebrow at me. DAMN IT! He caught me out already, so there isn’t much else I can do.

 “Okay, they are AWESOME!” I squealed at him. Everyone turned to look at me. Shit. Nice one Lilly REAL smooth.

 “Ah hem” The teacher cleared his throat to grab our attention “Are we disturbing you Miss Austin?” He growled out. Crap.

 “No sir, please do continue.” I smiled at him and returned my attention to the front of class.

 As I was copying the note down from the board, a letter was put in my lap. I looked up at Jarrad and he smiled sadly at me, gesturing for me to read it.

Sorry to get you into trouble :(

What can I do to make it up to you?

Without even thinking I scribbled down in big bold writing: GIVE ME YOUR SHIRT!!

 I handed it to Jarrad quickly. He did a double take at looking at the note, and then looked down at his top. I stared at him intently, he let out a sigh before shrugging his shoulders and shaking his head, then scribbled something on the note. I pretty much snatched the note from his hands, ignoring his shocked but amused expression.

Ok, I have two anyway :)

 I squealed so loudly and turned to beam at him.

 “That’s it Miss Austin, go to detention!” Mr. Pompose-ass yelled at me pointing to the door.

 I could care less though. I WAS GETTING A LA DISPUTE T-SHIRT! I grinned at Jarrad again, as shock his head chuckling at me. I strutted out of the class without a second glance. Hell yeah, today was definitely going to be my day!

I don't even know what Zac is talking about right now. Like I can see his mouth moving and  all but I'm just not hearing anything. Probably because all I can think about is that damned girl! It's really starting to piss me off now. Seriously though, WHO DOES SHE THINK SHE IS?! She can just strut into this school and ack like she owns the place. Granted she does look rich and she acts like a rich bitch too, but some stuff about her makes me think that it's all a cover...
