3 DAYS LATER
It was Monday. The most boring day of the week for Robyn. She reluctantly got up and had a shower before making her bed and brushing her hair. She dried and curled it (like how the celebrities have it). Then, she picked out a fishnet crop top with a black crop top to cover her bra and long sleeves with holes for the thumbs, black denim shorts, black thin tights and black suede ankle boots with a chunky heel. She put on some mascara, grey, glittery eye-shadow and red lip stick. Then, suddenly, she heard a car horn beep and she slung her backpack over her shoulder, grabbed a nutri-grain bar, grabbed her keys and locked the house up.
Louisa's jaw dropped to the ground when she saw Robyn's revealing outfit compared to her preppy outfit that consisted of a white crop top with a black preppy collar, a blue denim skirt and fringe boots with knee high socks. Robyn swung open the car door and Louisa turned to her with a scowl. "Are you trying to look like a slut?" She whisper-scowled. Robyn just shrugged and placed her bag on the floor. "Just showing Damian what he's missing. I said yesterday that I would explain what is going on between me and him. So here is how it happened." She started.
----------------------------------------------------5 MINUTES LATER---------------------------------------------------
"So that's the story." Robyn finished. Louisa stared at the road ahead with her mouth slightly agape again. She pulled into the school car-park a short time later. "So basically, you have to make him fall in love with you. And/or vice versa. Okay. You seduce him all you can. That outfit will totally capture his attention!" Louisa clarified before hugging her best friend. Robyn thanked her and hugged her back before they both grabbed their bags and got out of the car. People began to stare at their clothes as Malcolm and Damian were walking nearby. "What's going on? What's with all of the commotion?" Malcolm asked a fellow student. The boy turned around and pointed at the two girls and said excitedly: "They are hot!! Don't you guys agree?" They followed his finger and both of their hearts stopped.
Louisa and Robyn reached the outskirts of the crowd, getting closer to Malcolm and Damian. Malcolm cleared his throat and Damian became angry at the thought of someone else touching her. "What is this?" Damian scowled, gesturing at their style. Robyn crossed her arms and stepped towards them both. "Since when can you dictate what I wear? You jealous the boys will be tempted?" She smirked, biting her bottom lip. He paused for a moment before crossing his arms and saying: "You wish." Robyn poked out her tongue before walking away with Louisa in tow.
Malcolm then elbowed him in the arm. "You were totally jealous dude!" He laughed. Damian looked at him as if he had two heads. "As if." He scowled before walking away. Malcolm pulled him aside and proposed a plan: "You should go over her house tonight. Like have a date." He almost fainted as he heard what his cousin proposed. "Seriously, think about it. You could try and seduce her." Malcolm reckoned. He thought about it and began to realise that he was right. "A date..you're a genius! Thanks dude!" Damian complimented him before they both stood there and begin to plan more.
--------------------------------------------------------MEANWHILE--------------------------------------------------------
As they watched the boys walk away and, as soon as they were out of earshot, Louisa pulled Robyn aside and looked at her like she was crazy. "Okay what was that?!" She questioned. "What?" Robyn asked, furrowing her eyebrows. Louisa rolled her eyes and scoffed. "You know what I mean. Please don't deny it." She replied. Robyn then understood what she meant. "I don't know. I was just playing around. I didn't mean any of it. Maybe I should say sorry to him after school." Robyn thought out loud. Louisa agreed and they formulated their own plan for Robyn to go over to Damian's house to apologise.
--------------------------------------------------------LUNCHTIME--------------------------------------------------------
Robyn was on her way to sit with Sheila and Louisa but before she could, a boy in her class named Nate Coleman stopped her. "Robyn, can I please talk to you in private?" He said. Robyn looked both ways to check to see if he was talking to her. After confirming that he was talking to her, she nodded and he led her away. Damian stood nearby, jealousy bubbling up inside of him. He decided to get up and follow them so that Nate wouldn't do anything stupid or dumb or hurt Robyn in any way.
Nate led her to the back of the school which Robyn was slightly suspicious about but she went along with it anyways because she knew that he was the type of guy that you didn't want to mess with. "So what did you wanna talk about Nate?" She asked, backed up against the wall. Nate lifted his hand and placed it on her cheek. Damian clenched his fists and teeth as he watched this vile creature touch his girl. Robyn started to become nervous as he lifted her chin. "I really really like you Robyn. Your sass. Your confidence. Your..beauty. It's just so..magnetic. Everything about you I crave. I've got to have you. Right here. Right now. Will you let me?" He said in a deep voice before grabbing her hips. "Um can you please get off of me." Robyn asked, becoming scared and intimidated. He didn't say anything, instead, he lifts her by her legs and connects them round his waist and smashes his lips against hers. Damian then lost it.
He ran out of his hiding spot and punched Nate in the mouth. He then swiftly caught Robyn as she fell down and he placed her back on her feet. But before she could thank him, she screamed: "Look out!" as Nate swung his fists but Damian caught it effortlessly. He then bent his wrist back and kneed him several times in the stomach before chucking him on the ground. Nate landed on his back, breathing heavily and laughing slightly. "She's mine you know that Radcliffe." He spat, watery blood spilling down his chin. Damian kicked him in the side of the head and Nate was knocked out.
They both made eye contact as tears began to stream down Robyn's porcelain face. She broke down crying, not caring who was looking, as her knees gave way under her. Damian crouched and caught her before she could fall as he hugged her. She cried and cried into his shoulder. Robyn hugged him tightly and she wouldn't let him go. "This is all my fault. Louisa was right. I never should have dressed like this. I never should have agreed to go with him in the first place. I look like a slut. Of course boys would try and do this to me." She whispered, weeping even more. Damian stroked her head of hair and comforted her. "Hey none of this is your fault. How were you supposed to know this would happen?! And you are not a slut! But I do have to ask why did you come dressed in a fishnet top anyways? Sorry, forget I said that." He asked, instantly regretting the words that left his mouth. Robyn looked up at him as more tears streamed down her face. "Its okay and I did it..because of you." She started. "Me?!" Damian repeated, looking at her incredulously. She sighed sadly and looked into his eyes. "Yes. I was meaning to make you jealous. And I thought that..if I changed my look, maybe you would like me a little bit more. Pathetic I know but-" She began but before he could answer her, the bell rung and Robyn went to class, trying to be careful to avoid suspicion. Damian spat on Nate's face then he walked to class.
---------------------------------------------------------AFTER CLASS-----------------------------------------------------
Robyn quickly walked out of her history class and decided to tell Louisa about what happened. When she finished explaining, Louisa's face was red with fury and Robyn pulled her away to the car and they sped off. "WOAH JESUS LOUISA SLOW DOWN!" Robyn shouted. Louisa didn't listen and began to speed along the road, cars honking at her. Robyn gripped onto the dashboard in fear but Louisa saw this out of the corner of her eye and braked suddenly. Robyn was thrown forward, almost going through the windscreen before being pulled back. Louisa then touched Robyn's cheek, checking to see if she had any injuries. "I am so sorry I did that. I don't know what came over me I-" Louisa began before Robyn reassured her that everything was okay. They both hugged each other before Robyn got out of the car, said goodbye to Louisa and went inside her house
------------------------------------------------------15 MINUTES LATER-------------------------------------------------
She decided to put on a white wrap-front crop top with tiny grey flowers and high waistband black and white running shorts. After she finished getting ready, she heard a knock on the door. "Just coming!" She shouted down the stairs. She dashed down the staircase and opened the door to see Damian standing there. "Oh hi Damian. How did you know my address?" She asked with genuine curiosity. "Malcolm gave me your address." Damian replied simply. "Okay my next question is what are you doing here?" Robyn implored. Damian walked in the doorway, which Robyn allowed before he shut the door and cupped her face. "Seriously, what are you doing here?" She said softly, her voice like pure silk with a firm nature sewn in. "I'm here to see if you are alright. And also..." He started but then hesitated. Robyn tilted her face to the side as she analysed his face. "What? Also what Damian? What is it that you desire or wish to ask me?" She whispered, leaning in a little bit so they were inches away.
