Connor’s POV
I gently lifted her up, putting her back onto the couch with a fuzzy blanket. I sighed and quietly went out the back of the house. I pulled my phone out of my pocket, dialing a number I never thought I’d need to use again. After a couple rings, she finally answered.
What happened to not wanting me anymore ?
Hello to you too. I said, rolling my eyes at her greeting.
Connor, last time I saw you, you said that you didn’t want or need me. She said, sounding pissed off.
I don’t need you in that way, I said, sighing. Can you just come over ? There was a pause before she answered.
I’m on my way.
I peeked back inside the house to check on Bella- who was sound asleep. I walked out onto the porch, waiting for her to come.
10 minutes later
Thanks for coming Sam, I said, standing up awkwardly. She gave me a playful glare and plopped herself down on the porch swing.
So what do ya wanna talk about ? She asked, her green eyes glinting.
There’s this girl, her name is Bella and- I started.
Let me guess, you’re trying to sleep with her ? She asked.
Well- yes. I mumbled, sitting down next to her. She nodded her head thoughtfully.
What’s the problem ? She’s playing hard to get ?
No… I think she just really doesn’t want to sleep with me. I said, shaking my head in disbelief. Sam’s eyes widened and she was silent for a couple moments.
What do you mean ?
I may have not left her with a great first impression. In all truth, I never acted like I wanted her. It’s complicated. I sighed. But now that I do want her, she seems to like this other guy.
Sam raised her eyebrow. What, this guy is still alive ?
I laughed and nodded. Yeah. The thing is, I’ve never seen him with her and I guess I just keep hoping that it’s not true- the rumors I’ve heard. I watched as Sam stared at me, a shocked expression over her face.
What ? I asked, confused.
You like her. She said as if it was obvious.
I scoffed, I like her body.
No, you like her. She said, shaking her head and giving me this look.
30 minutes later
This was nice, Sam said, standing at the bottom of the stairs. I nodded and gave her a small hug. Without warning, she wrapped her arms around me, kissing me full on the lips.
Just for old times sake. She whispered, pulling away. I watched her in amusement as she walked to her car, giving me a small wave before driving off. I smiled and walked back into the house.
I have to go. My head snapped up into her direction. Bella looked mad as hell as she stood with crossed arms in front of me.
What ? Why ? I asked, surprised by her sudden mood change. She scoffed and pushed past me, and onto the porch.
Bella what’s going on ? I asked, grabbing her arm to stop her. She whirled around, giving me a look that made my blood run cold. Immediately I dropped her arm, staring at her in confusion.
Give me my keys. She said, anger lining every word.
One second. I said turning around. Guess someone’s PMSing.
Bella’s POV
Guess someone’s PMSing. He muttered, walking away. I felt another wave of anger and annoyance surge through me. How dare he ! He has no right to even pretend like nothing happened.
I saw him trying to suffocate that blonde chick with his tongue. I’m not even going to pretend that I didn’t feel jealous.
Oh, and used. Don’t forget that.
I have your keys, he announced, leaning against the doorway.
Give them back. I hissed, holding out my hand in expectancy. He laughed took my hand in his own.
Not till you go out with me.
No ! I snapped, yanking my hand away. He frowned and took a step closer.
Why not ?
You are an unbelievable son of a bitch ! You honestly think you can get whatever you want, but you know what ? You can’t ! Did you really expect me to run into your arms after you were making out with some girl on the porch ? I snarled, getting right up into his face.
Why do you care ? He snapped, causing me to flinch back. You’ve been treating me like shit all this time and you really expect me to wait around for you to maybe even consider me ? I winced and stared past him.
This is why it won’t work. I said, backing away with a frown on my face. Connor was still breathing heavily, and he watched me.
We believe in two different things. You think that it is okay to be with other girls while chasing after one, and I think that if you really want to be with someone, you should not give up and just whore around till they come around. I said, shaking my head and holding out my hand.
You haven’t even given me a chance. Connor said sadly, taking my hand once more, cupping it in between his.
Do you even deserve one ? I asked numbly. A look of hurt flashed though Connor’s face and he dropped my hand while backing away.
I’m sorry. I said immediately.
You gave Liam a chance. He said, his expression now hard and emotionless.
Yeah, but-
He just wants to use you. Connor stated dully.
Excuse me ?
I’ve never once not gotten the girl I went for, so the fact you started to talk to Liam made a little plan fill in his head. He thinks that he can sleep with you before me, using you to take my title. I froze as his words started to sink in.
So I’m just some prize for this little competition of who can get my virginity first ? I asked, not even trying to hide the hurt and anger I felt.
Bella, please, give me a chance. Connor pleaded taking a step forward.
This is crazy ! Everything is moving way too fast. I barely even know you ! I snapped, looking away.
This isn’t a date. Connor said, letting out a sigh of annoyance.
Fine. I said, staring at him blankly. Connor froze, almost as if he hadn’t expected me to go along with it.
Well do you want your clothes or-
No, I’ll wear this. It’s not a date. I said, crossing my arms defiantly. Expecting Connor to be annoyed, I guess you could say I was surprised when he leaned back and laughed.
