Handcuffed Rivals

17

We sneaked in although THE LADY saw us enter anyway and will no doubt tell my mother what she saw so it wasn't like the 'sneaking in' actually worked but whatever, as I pulled on Kings hand to follow my lead. The house was dark, any light that went in was the one from the window opened in the kitchen where Cedric played around with his left out supper. He didn't bark, just looked at me, head leaning on the left side and then turned around uninterested. Huh, that makes the two of us.

King whispered cursing words probably directed to me because no one was around and I'm usually at fault of everything that happens in his life, but I didn't listen still dragging him until we entered Jareds room to find him a shirt. Jared, of course, laid half naked with his mouth ajar, snoring disguistingly manly-like, that the whole house shook with his vibrations. And I'm not exaggerating.

„What pants do you want?" I spreaded out his wardrobe like it was in my possesion and smiled miliciously. Let's see how you handle that, jerk. Jared moved around in his sleep, still on bed, before King shruged aloof watching him push the covers away and showing more then any sister ever wanted to see. I turned around grossed out by the whole intimacy thing and handed him the first pair my hand found „this will do!"

We managed to quickly wash our teeth in my bathroom and take one notebook and a pen since King was suddenly in so much hurry and was overly bossy-like that he didn't need a pen to write with and oh god let's not mention the books. Who needs books nowdays? Asshole.

We were back at his car, barely handling stuff alone, him being the first one to enter and me struggling to keep all of my stuff in my hands without them falling all over. We didn't exchange a word to each other, both angry, him I don't know why, he's always angry at me, and me, well I'm always angry too. When we looked at Facultys grounds, we were both happy to be in the presence of other people.

„You could've let me drive." We were out in the open with our mashed up outfits of the day, him borrowing Jareds shorts while I stayed in the same thing from this morning at his house because I didn't want to rip another sleeve. It was a fourteen day thing, looking at my choice of fashion, I didn't want half of my wardrobe gone.

King turned to me and puffed the air „Yea, never happening." I still didn't understand why he won't give me his car to drive. He did let me change gears and that's close enough. Why not just let me try? I hated men.

„Whatever." We didn't talk much, only when we got to his locker did he start having a conversation with his Greg buddy and I stood on the side like his weeks chick ready to bang him. I did feel kinda slutty, wearing his shirt half ripped on my body and a skirt I was wearing yesterday and clearly everyone saw me in it.

„Looking good!" Greg laughed switching his look from me to King and then back amused. He was the only one who was having fun with this whole handcuffing.

„Don't start." King was short, as always and turned around the lock searching for his time table. We both settled for him to have the plan because I would most likely lose it in a heartbeat and he did look like he knew what he was doing with it. I don't know how we agreeded on that, seriously, we never agree on anything. It must've been the fatigue from running around.

„It's P.E. day which means they have to separate us. I think." He closed the doors of his locker and turned around in thought „Well, they never told us anything about that."

I did like the sound of getting away from him for at least a day in schools premises but it was our second day, I didn't think it would be this easy „do you think we could maybe escape?"

„Naughy." Greg commented winking my way „wanna come to my bed?"

„Ewww never say that again. King!" I looked to my enemy for support clearly disgusted with the idea his friend pictured in his head while he just chuckled „not uptight at all!"

„Oh come on now, that's practically begging for sex and I won't do it." The only person who looked lost now was Greg but that was fine with me. The bastard had it coming. „I was not!" he explained it was supposed to be a joke and if I had at least some experience I would know what he meant.

Clearly, I knew what he meant and I didn't need more experiance then that. Agh!

We started walking down the hallway, some people around us whispering, probably catching up with the shirt I was wearing but I didn't mind. Yes, I kinda predicted it would be a problem because it clearly had his name on it, but still, I think it was reasonable to think I didn't do shit with him and that this was all because of the stupidity we were trying to survive. Right?

I so badly wanted to go to Dan but King didn't think about my wellbeing at all and joined the rest of his group acting like I was an addition to his hands, like I was a thing not being able to speak, just stand there and watch him have an interaction with his friends. I was getting angry.

„Are we going to the Gym or what?" I interrupted the Brenna girl or whatever her name was, didn't even want to know. She spilled the fire from her eyes at my rudness to her, her cheeks red and her eyes directed at King. That irritated me a bit because let's face it, you got a problem with me girl, the guy won't save you. I mean, yes I have a problem with her because she is in the enemy group, that's like all written out for her and she still had the need to ask another stupid question „Have some problem slut?"

I was boiling inside but wanted to remain calm for the sake of everyone around, me doing another fight would surely result in expulsion this time and even thought I so wanted to, my future was at line „With you little puppet?"

I could feel her eyes again on King waiting, expecting and that's when it all clicked. Like everything was clear in front of my eyes. Being friends with King in hope of catching his eyes to be a little more? A little bit attention to win and bam we're in bed one night, what's gonna happen now? Ah, this girl really is an amateur. I could see in her eyes how much she was begging for him to notice her and didn't have enough brain in her to realise he did notice her and friendzone her all together.

„I don't think so." I smiled in her direction coming closer to Kings body and leaning a little bit to show my territory to her. Not that I would ever consider it to be my territory but this bitch sure got on my nerves and it was fun making her puzzled.

King rolled his eyes at my behaviour and pulled on me to follow him to the Gym. I guess he finally saw that I wasn't capable of having a normal conversation with his friends and that the sooner he was finished with them, the less I'll embarrass everyone „I can't believe you!"

„What? That chick was goggling you with her eyes! I mean, come on, don't tell me you're blind to it or something." He ignored me and continued to drag me faster so I had to jump to catch up with his footing. I did that quiet a lot.

„Come on!" I triend again annoying him to get my answers. I knew I was getting out of line here, a little bit, but he was the one who told me that he knew everything about me because that's what enemies do. I could always mention it to him, it's a valid reason, except my quriosity.

„I'm not talking to you about that." His walk remained the same and it was hard for me to see the expression on his face so I would know if I have another chance at annoying him or will he just burst into flames. So I slowed down my walking, not matching his at all, whose did look pretty fast and pulled on my arm to make him stop.

At some point he did „Well, I think you do know and that makes it even worse."

„It's not your business." It was vivid that he didn't want to share any of his thoughts on that so he just looked elsewhere to avoid giving me anything in return. But I was a stubborn girl, he knew that much „Well, I could help you."

He raised his voice clearly disturbed „I don't want or need your help." We were in the middle of a hallway and I had no intentions of attracking more watchfullness then it already was. Since we were tied together, it seemed like we were more popular then we ever where and I really really had a problem with that. I didn't want the attention and King seemed to be receiving it a lot.

Sure, I had some, well a lot anyway, because I was the pranker and the enemy of the one guy girls never wanted to be enemies with, but that was different. That was proud different, this was just shameful.

„Whatever then. Conversation over." I murmured unsatified. We silently walked to the Gym where we had half of our day planned, like usual when the P.E. day arrived, and encountered Mr.Crossbore whose spirit lifted up drastically afte rus, joining.

„Oh, there you are." He greeted us, watching the handcuffs and then smiling discretely „I've been waiting for you to show up."

„Okay." King answered before I could and from its tone you could say he was freaked out by the sudden interest of that one professor who hated us the most. I was catching air in between.

„Since you're both on different levels, we have to untie you but only for a few hours and under my supervision. There are no sudden leaves, no bathroom calls or phone calls. Nothing!" with each word he stressed out how difficult this was to him and how he wanted out although it made him extremely spiritfull.

„Finally." I looked at the one end of the Gym where some of my collegues were, dressed in our uniform and the football boys half on the bench, half doing tricks with the ball. I just didn't understand the need to be in a closed Gym when we have the same conditions outside and would be much better to perform in the air if I wasn't afraid to bump my head in the ceiling once they throw me in.

„Why aren't we out?" King voiced out my thoughts which scared me a bit for a second. Were we spending too much time together already?

„Oh, we're just going there. I was waiting for you so I could keep an eye better."

I was becoming afraid of that dude.
