Them Grier Boyz

Chp.8

(Bridget’s POV)

My alarm went off and I nearly jumped out of bed. I was super excited about today. Even though it was Tuesday and I had 3 more days till the end of the week, I was really excited to see Cameron. He is super funny and it’s so much fun when he makes me laugh.

I rush around my room trying to find the perfect outfit.  I finally decide on a cute outfit. I decide to go with a jean miniskirt with black leggings underneath and a shirt with a hood. I pulled my bangs to the side and slipped on some vans.

“Bridget! Breakfast” my grandma yelled. I opened the door to see my two brothers poking their heads out of their doors too. All of our rooms were equidistant to the stairs. We looked at each other waiting for the first person to move.

I make the first move and bolt down the stairs. “No you don’t” Jake says. He grabs my arm and pulls me back. “Jake!” I yell. I jump on his back and we start to tumble down the stairs. “AHHH” Jake and I scream as we fall down the stairs.

“What is all the rack…Ah” my grandma screams. We nearly knock her down as we end on the floor. Luckily Jake and I aren’t hurt at all we just look at each other and burst into laughter. Luke laughs form the top of the stairs.

“You could’ve killed yourselves” my grandma scolds. “Oh let kids be kids” grandpa says as her kisses her on the cheek. Jake jumps up and helps me up. We got knocked over again from Luke’s shove. He runs to the kitchen and Jake and I look at each other. “Luke” we yell in unison.

After breakfast I was in a good mood. I actually ate something and was in a great mood. I met up with the Grier’s and we walked to the bus stop. I felt awkward and nervous. Nash kept looking at me and I was wondering if he was going to tell everyone what happened.

To my luck he kept his mouth shut. “So..” Hayes says. I look over at him and smile “Yea?” I ask. “Do you want to like hangout later today?”

I bite my lip and his smile turns into a frown. “I’m working on my geometry packet with my partner after school. Sorry” I explain. “It’s cool” he says. The rest of the walk is quiet. Once we get on the bus Hayes and I take our seat and talk about something else.

~~*~~*~~*~~*

I get to my locker and Hayes is still blabbing about something that happened at dinner last night. ‘last night’ I say to myself as I remember the moment I shared with Nash. “A high pitched voice interrupts and look to see whose annoying voice it is.

Shelby the school’s sl** walks up to Hayes. She’s wearing super short jean shorts. You can practically see her butt hanging out. She wears a crop top tank and combat boots. I cringe at the boots and watch as Hayes gets ready to turn her down.

I lean against the lockers and wait for Shelby to speak. “Hey Hayes” she says. She twirls a piece of her hair like all the other girls. She bites her lip and makes a face that makes her look like a serial killer.

Hayes look towards me and I can tell he’s about to burst out laughing. “So would you like to come over to my  house? We can work on the algebra packet together” she leans closer to him and ends up pinning him against the lockers. “Sure like that’s what you want to work on at you house” I say sarcastically.

She stands up straight and looks at me. “Yea look who’s talking, honey we’re not in 4th grade anymore so go back to Kids R Us and return those s****y clothes of yours.” She stomps away and I am on the verge of tears.

“Bridget don’t listen to her” Hayes says.  “Yea your right” I respond. I sniffle a little and wipe the one tear that got away. “You ready for class?” Hayes asks. “Yea.” We walk down the hall and his arm is wrapped around my waist.

Shelby is standing at the end of the hall and looks up at us. She winks at Hayes and gives me a death glare. All of a sudden Hayes pushes me up against the wall and kisses me hard. Once he stands back he gives me a smirk.

He looks back at Shelby and gives her a devilish glare. I realize that he kissed me just to spite her. I look up at her and she is in complete shock. “Bye” I say and walk away.

Hayes and I turn the corner and I stop him. “Where did that come from? Dude that was awesome did you see the look on her face; and might I add that was an interesting kiss I thought you were just pecking me on the lips” I blurt out.

“Yea just had to rub it in your face” he says softly. “There’s something that he’s not telling me and it feels weird. It can’t be that he likes me. We’ve been friends for too long.

“Well that was a hot kiss” I add. His eyes lit up and they meet mine. “One day when you stop rejecting all these girls and find the right one you’ll be an awesome boyfriend” I say. His face falls and he shrugs. “If I will ever find one” he mumbles.

I decide not to keep that conversation going instead I take his hand in mine and drag him to our first class.

~~*~~*~~*~~

It’s finally the end of the day. I wait by my locker for Cameron to show up. We got through most of our packet and only have five pages left! I check my phone so I don’t look like a loser and let out a big breath.

“You ready” Cameron says. I look up and see him leaning against the lockers. “Yep let’s go. You’re house right?” “Right” he responds. I follow him out to the student parking lot. I nearly laugh at the way he acts as he walks down the hall.

He’s got jeans on and a black shirt with a black  jacket. Black shades cover his eyes and he walks like he’s one of the coolest guys in the school. I let out a giggle and he snaps his head toward me. “What?”

“Nothing”

“C’mon tell me” he urges.

I roll my eyes and look at him. “It’s just this bad boy image you got going on. It just doesn’t seem like you” I say. “Well the ladies like it so why not” he says. Sure enough when we arrive to his car there’s a group of girls hanging around another car.

When they see Cameron they all squeal and ‘try’ to look cool. “Hello ladies” Cameron says. He lifts his shades up and gives them a wink. I crack up laughing and slap my hand over my mouth. Cameron looks at me oddly, but motions me to his car.

I blush and get into his red BMW. I stare in awe at all the dashboard and all the other buttons and gadget his car has. “What the hell was that?” he asks. “Sorry, but did you see the way they were throwing themselves at you?” I ask. “Yah that was the whole point” he laughs.

I roll my eyes and lean into the comfy seat and wait for him to start the car. The engine sounds beautiful when he turns the keys. “You’re jealous aren’t you?” Cameron taunts. “No I’m not!” I say. I shove his shoulder and give him a playful smile.

“Now drive us to your house, I’ve been dying to see where THE CAMERON DALLAS lives” I say sarcastically. He glares at me and I just laugh.
