I was walking to 9th period, a struggle in itself. When Dominic, my best guy friend, came up to me and put his arm over my shoulder. A gesture I hated and he knew it too.
"Hey." His husky voice spoke.
"Hey." I said dully. Being at school was seemingly unnecessary, the teachers barely teach and it was filled with players and harlots. A place where my mother insisted I be for seven hours.
" I finally hooked up with Hope." He said with amusement playing on his lips, unfortunately my best friend was apart of that group that i tried to avoid, the players.
"Really? I'm not surprised, she's always fantasized having Sexual enter-course with you." I say nonchalantly. I prefer not to dawdle on his recent flings but all he does is bring it up.
He laughs. "I know. Every girl does." I looked at him, agitated. He was so lucky that anyone wanted to hook up with him, yet he was too big headed to realize it.
After thinking I say, "No, I don't actually and neither does Jack." I say referring to his twin sister Jaki.
"Jaki no. But you probably." He says winking at me.
I scoff as we turn the corner. Dominic and Jaki have been my best friends since birth. We know everything about each other. So if we went on a game show we would win every challenge there was. Our bond was strong and they have always been there when i needed them.
"Anyway, I wanted to know if you were going to Landon's party?" He inquires, with raised eyebrows.
"No." I say, while laying against the entry to my next class. "I have a Algebra test to study for."
"You're such a geek." He says as I laugh at his acknowledgement.
"But you realize the test is on Tuesday, we have a three day weekend, and to top it off its a Friday, right?" He states our upcoming events by heart as I process them. There was no freaking way I could get out of attending the festivity, and all I really wanted was to sleep. The minute bell rang, as kids scurried to Mrs. Deans room and I still had not answered him.
"I'll think about it." I finally say while embracing him.
He smiles. "I'll see you later?" He asked.
"Yeah." I remark while turing to enter the classroom. Upon entry all eyes drift to me. I put my head down as I give my teacher my minute pass. I make eye contact with Jaki as I sit down. I settle down hoping all eyes are off me. Yet I still feel a pair of eyes lingering, watching every movement I make. I turn around to see Shayne Green staring at me, his eyes searching my soul.
He smirks, but I face forward again not caring two cents about the schools player. Mrs.Deans voice rises above all others as she calls the class to attention. "Today we will be starting our Language arts project. You will need a partner to do so and I have already chosen whom."The class murmurs and grumble, we were assigned a monthly project, to wrap up or start the units, that no one wanted to do.
"Alright: Sara and Ryan. Danielle and Rebekah. Avery and Jack. Vicky and Charles. Alex and Mike. Jaki and Hope. Shayne and Pyper."
No. No. No. I can't possibly be partners with him! I shout at myself, I'm gonna die. Being partners with him meant i was doing all the work. I would have to stay up and finish everything while he met up with girls. There was no fairness in this project. I try to calm myself down as Mrs. Deans continues talking.
"You will be creating a report on our Presidents, since looking at the survey most of you want to learn about them." I chuckle, silently. This was going to be easy, Shayne would be the most difficult thing. When Mrs.Deans has finished explaining the requirements and what President each of us are assigned, I get up and walk over to her desk hoping to be able to switch partners.
"Mrs. Deans is there any way I can change partners with someone else?" I ask using the sweetest voice I could muster on the devil.
"No I'm sorry Pyper but I did these partners for a reason. So no. Now get started." She spat. It was evident that she disliked me anyway so I don't even know why I asked. I huff and walk back to my desk, or the desk i thought was mine, which was now taken by Shayne.
"You can sit on my lap if you want." He grinned widely.
"I'll pass." I say while grabbing a chair. I sit as far away as I can from him, which caught his attention. He looked over at me. "You can't see the paper if your all the way over there, now can you?"
I look at him. "Come on, I don't bite." I scoot closer to him to see the paper. "Unless you want me to." I glare at him, coldly. Was he foreal? I didn't want a single part of his body touching me, and his mouth was no exception.
"What do you know about Martin Van Buren?" I ask, ignoring his comment.
"Besides the fact that he started balding at an early age, nothing."
I laugh, doubling over. It could be true, our eighth president wasn't the best at keeping his hair. As I straighten myself up, I see him staring at me intently.
"Can I have my face back?" I ask, sarcastically.
"Can I get a kiss first?" He asks, his head resting on his uplifted arm.
"Um no." I reply. Did he think he was Bruce Wayne? There was no way he was going to kiss me as soon as we met, unlike the playboy Wayne who stole girls in mere minutes, Shayne had no skill like the dark knight.
He frowned. "Then no. No you cannot."
I sigh. "Do you want to work on the chrome?" I ask the guy who is still admiring my face.
"Sure, babe."
* * *
We had been working for about 15 mins when I realized I shouldn't have worn shorts. I felt a warm hand on my bare legs and I pushed it off without looking up. You would think that Shayne would get the hint, but he didn't. Soon again I feel the hand travel onward. So I push it off, again.
The third time I feel his hand, it lands near my private area, and I jumped at the contact.
"Dude keep your freaking hands of me!" I whisper-yell.
"Come on you know you liked it."He states slyly.
I smirk. "Yeah, I like the fact you were trying to touch my vagina." Sarcasm dripped from my voice yet this kid replies with, "I knew it." He says, while smirking.
"Its called being sarcastic." I shoot back, ready to slap him now.
And before words of violence and threats could leave my mouth, the bell rung. Finally! I honestly don't know how long I could go before I'd beat the crap out of him.
"Are you coming to the party?" Shayne asked as I walked out the door, with him following closely. I walk faster trying to lose him, but he catches up to me faster than the speedster himself. He plants himself in the direction I intended to go, and his height towered over me like a tree supplying shade.
"What do you want?" I ask him, annoyed by his presence.
"Well, you haven't answered my question." He states, his hands in his pockets.
"Oh yeah, umm I-"
"-You should its gonna be fun and I'll be there." He retorts, a smirk playing on his lips.
"So?" I say a little snobbish, I mean he was nobody important to me.
"So...you should come." He replies. Shayne stares at me intently waiting
"I'll think about it." I say for the second time today. As we part ways and I walk to my locker, I think.
Dominic walks up to me. "Did you think about it?"
"Yep." I say popping the "P." I stop for a moment as Dominic stares at me, waiting.
"Yeah I'll go." I say. He pumps his fist in the air. An action that was common among the twins. I knew I was going to regret this, but I also knew that chances have to be taken, this party was going to change my life forever.
The question was for better or for worse?
