Involved with the Bad Boy

Chapter 33

"Ali."

I turn around to find Austin walking towards me. I must've been really lost in my thoughts not to have heard him open that door. Or more like lost in my own frustration.

"You need something Austin?"

I ask pretending to have my focus on the novel in front of me so I don't get to face him.

"No hey no hi? I didn't even see you yesterday and you don't even care to give me a hug? Or what, you didn't miss me?"

He didn't even sound serious in the slightest bit. And of course I didn't see him yesterday. I've spend the whole day in my hotel room checking my phone for any of his texts. And he didn't even send a single hi. And then I was somewhat eager to see him today just to find out he wasn't interested in seeing me even a tiny bit. I should've known then-

"Overthinking again are we?"

He interrupts my thoughts and I turn to look at him.

"I'm busy and guessing by your messed up hair and the makeup smudge on your cheeks, you were busy too. So if you'd please leave me alone, I need to finish my book before the bell rings."

I exclaim totally pissed for I don't know what reason.

"Ouh, I thought I cleaned this up."

He said without a care in the world as he sat besides me.

"So I got a little bored and you can't deny that Ashley looked slightly sexier today with less make up and all so when I saw her, I couldn't help myself."

He said with a shrug and I gulped in shock. He's joking right? He can't be talking casually about this after what happened Friday night. Atleast what I thought had happened. Did he feel that heat and electricity with Ashley too? With every girl he sleeps with? Did what happened between us really mean nothing to him?

"Are you serious?"

I managed to ask.

"Of course. And you're probably angry but-"

"Why would I be angry?"

I asked cutting him off. So he does know I'm mad. So maybe an apology will follow.

"Yah you have every right to be. I mean after I reprimanded you the other day for not keeping your relationships a secret considering we're fake dating and here I was putting my make out sessions on display. But I'll try to be more discreet next time. You must understand though Ali, a guy's gotta do what a guy's gotta do."

He replied casually. So much thinking he'd say something nicer. I hate him. I hate him so much for getting under my skin. I hate myself even more for thinking that he'd be a little less hurtful with his words.

"You came all the way here just to tell me that?"

"Of course not baby doll. You brought it up and I just elaborated. I just thought we could continue where we left off Friday night."

He said moving his chair closer to me so we're only a few inches apart. He's back to calling me those awful nicknames again? What is going on with him? One step forward and then two step forward in this whole fake relationship of ours? He's never acted so mean with me before, why this sudden urge to try and humiliate me and my feelings. I thought we were atleast becoming friends. But of course friends don't kiss.

"You're mistaken if you're think I'm going to let you treat me like one of your flings Austin. Really mistaken."

I say pushing him away and standing up so I keep a good amount of distance between us.
