Bella, we’ve been over this ! Connor said with a sigh. I lifted my head, ready to yell.
Well, you’re just a horrible teacher ! I snapped, glaring.
Or you’re just stupid. Connor muttered, stacking up all my papers. I pulled out my phone to check the time, 2 :50 pm. Ten minutes left. I’m not going to make it.
I’m not stupid. I murmured, putting everything away. I collapsed back into my chair and glared at Connor.
Yes, yes you are.
That did it.
DIE ! I wailed, lunging across the table. I caught Connor by surprise and was able to get a couple good slaps in before pinned my wrists back on the table, forcing me to lay on my back. His eyes twinkled mischievously as he leaned over me.
Jerk. I snapped as I struggled. My breathing hitched when I realized Connor was getting closer, I could already feel his hot breath on my neck.
RING RING RING !
Talk about being saved by the bell ! I bolted out from underneath Connor and grabbed my backpack, running towards the exit.
Not so fast- He grabbed my arm, which really surprised me because I didn’t know he had followed. Well, just so you know, bad things happen when I’m surprised.
SLAP !
Haha, oops… I laughed nervously and ran out the door and to my locker, and then straight into someone.
Liam.
Hey so, I was wondering if I could have your number ? Liam asked, the faintest bit of blush on his cheeks.
Oh, yeah ! I said, taking his phone from his hands and adding myself as a contact. He grinned as I handed it back.
Thanks, so I’ll see you tomorrow ! He said, walking off. I couldn’t help but grin. Oh god… I didn’t like like Liam… Did I ? I grabbed my backpack and headed outside, only to realize my car wasn’t there.
You’re coming with me, doll face. I turned and saw Connor smirking at me. I frowned and realized that I would have to go back onto the vehicle of death.
10 minutes later
This time I managed to not hold on for too long after the ride was over. I pulled away, and muttered a small thanks before turning to leave.
Wait, Connor said, grabbing my wrist.
What ? I asked, confused.
I saw you talking to Liam, and I heard from many people that he asked you out. Connor said, Is that true ?
My heart was racing, N-no.
Connor smiled and dropped my wrist. Good. I was almost to the front door before he spoke again.
Cause Bella, you’re mine. I won’t let anyone get in my way of having you. I froze and whirled around just as he rode away.
Oh god, have I just put Liam in danger ?
Connor’s POV
Dude, she’s lying to you. James said lazily, falling onto the coach lazily. I scowled and sat down in the armchair next to him.
Yeah, man, I saw it with my own eyes. Matt said, sprawled out on the other couch. I cursed and glared at them both.
I warned her what would happen. I said, curtly. Matt and James exchanged looks before one of the spoke.
Listen Connor, you’ve always been known as the guy who gets the girl. When other guys find out that Liam is getting closer to her, she’s going to be seen as free meat. Matt said with a shrug as he turned on the TV. I frowned as I thought about this- Matt was right.
What am I supposed to do ? Beat the crap out of Liam because he talked to Bella ?
I don’t get it. I turned to look at James, who was now sitting up, his brows furrowed in thought.
What ? I asked
You normally get the girl in a matter of minutes, hours, days. But with Bella, it’s different. It’s been nearly a week. James pointed out.
Well remember Sarah ? It took me two months to break her. I pointed out. Oh and remember Anna ? She took me nearly three and a half months. Matt and James both nodded.
We were worried for a second that you were going soft.
I scoffed and looked at them. Like I would ever go soft for someone. Bella is no different from the rest. Sure, she’s entertaining and very stubborn, but in the end, she’ll crack and give into me.
Sure, when we kissed, it was amazing. Something about her made me what to be with her, get closer to her. And yeah, it pissed me off that she wanted nothing to do with me. But I can’t let myself fall for her, that won’t happen.
Bella, is a nice girl… I’d hate to see her get hurt. Matt said, mostly to himself. I exchanged looks with a surprised James.
What ? Does Matt now like her too ??
And you know what ? That made me angry.
Wait what ?
Oh no. Do I have competition to get her ?
Guess I’m going to have to try another technique.
