Everything seems to be fine as days kept rolling off, same as the week, The case of bullying has been able to be reduced gradually but it was still there since some jerk ass student as made it their sole aim not to let some certain students they dislike or hate have peace of mind when they are in school, they made sure they still tease those poor kids.
The screeching sound of the sneakers of those playing basketball made infuriating noise to my ears however, I couldn’t do anything when all I was doing was watching the boys with so much vivacity and expertise play.
I sat at the close end of the wall, almost yelling happily and giggling to myself when Lucas made a turn and hit a goal… it was closing and he asked if I could stay and watch him play during his practice.
My gaze was fixed on him as he moved swiftly and dribble the ball against the opposing team, well the competition is to hit up in a few days and the cheerleaders of the school have been doing their practice too. Susan was made the head of cheerleaders in school ever since Jenny left.
The boys kept playing till the time rang up for departure, Lucas and Ben gave each other a handshake as Lucas walked to the front seat and grabbed a napkin to clean his face.
He turned his gaze to and winked as he signaled for me to come forward, I nodded shyly still glancing at the rest of the boys who were busy doing one thing and the other as some were packing their bags while some were gulping water down their throat.
I packed my bag and brought out a bottle of water for Lucas to drink, he might be thirsty after such an arduous game. Well, Basketball isn’t an easy game to play all those jumping and hopping all around could make someone like me faint.
Maybe, I should start working out as Lucas told me previously. I walked in between the seats as I made my way towards Lucas.
“Princess, please, give me that water in your hands… Gosh! I’m exhausted,” Ben said as he saw me approaching.
“Huh! Okay,” I muttered as I stretched my hand to give him the bottle of water, he sighed in relief until Lucas got in my front and collected the bottle of water from me swiftly.
“Hey! That’s meant for me,” Ben barked furiously at Lucas as he stared in frustration as Lucas turned the lid of the bottle and brought the bottle to his mouth as he gulped down the water, I let out a slight chuckle as Ben groaned.
“The water was meant for me and not you,” Lucas retorted with a proud smirk on his face as he eyed Ben.
“She didn’t say, and when I asked she was about to give it to me,” Ben grumbled as he shifted his gaze at me while I pouted.
“Whatever,” Lucas said drinking all the water as he threw the empty plastic bottle at Ben.
“You’re so mean, and that’s unfair,” Ben rumbled placing his palm on his forehead.
I unzipped my bag and brought out the can of apple juice, I was about to drink while in Lucas’s car when we’ll go home.
“Hey, have this,” I offered as Ben looked and a smile lit up his face, Lucas was facing the court and was unaware while Ben quickly collected the apple drink from me.
“You’re a lifesaver, Camilla,” Ben said loudly as he opened the drink and Lucas glanced back to see what was happening before his eyes momentarily popped out of its socket.
“Now, this is better than water,” Ben belched after drinking some amount of the juice as he gazed at Lucas with a smirk.
‘These two act childish when they’re with each other, only someone close to them will notice,’ I thought as I chuckled in my thought.
“Can we start going?” I asked, I needed to do my assignment on time and have a nice sleep.
“Hey, Nerd!” We heard someone say loudly in the hall, as we all shifted our gaze to see who it was, I knew it was me the person was referring to, and only to see Damien with a cocky smirk on lips as he approached us.
The moron has been annoying these days, and I did well to avoid him because of troubles but now, I don’t know what got into the idiot’s head especially when Lucas was here.
I saw Ben grip Lucas’s arm as I saw that Lucas’s face was creased into a frown as he made to charge towards him.
I glanced around to see that most of the boys had left while only a few were around doing one thing and another.
“I can see you gave your virgin ass to this arrogant dude here,” He chuckled staring at me as he glanced at Lucas and stopped right in our front.
“Get the fuck away from here, Damien,” Lucas growled as he made a move to get closer to Damien with his hands balled into a fist already while Ben held him firmly.
“I wasn’t talking to you, I was talking with her,” Damien retorted and gaze at me while I stared frankly at him.
“Damien, respect yourself and leave here and let go of Lucas to beat you up… you know he wanted to do that to you, ever since you started getting on his nerves,” Ben said as he glared at Damien who snorted in response back to him.
“Anyway, I would like to get a taste of what he had from you,” Damien smirked as he gripped my hand suddenly while I glared at him.
Lucas got free from Ben’s hold and gave Damien a jaw-crushing blow, as he let go of me and staggered.
“Get the fuck away from her!” Lucas growled while Ben crossed his arms over his chest.
“Huh! You can’t have her to yourself, I will taste her soon,” He chuckled spatting on the floor as I saw bloodstains.
Lucas charged towards him grabbing his jersey as he pulled him closer to himself.
“If you fucking touch a strand of her hair, I swear on my head I’ll fucking kill you!” Lucas roared in his face and pushed him back as he gave him another jaw-crushing blow that made me tremble.
I didn’t stop him because the bastard deserves a warning of not getting close to me but I think those blows are enough…
“Lucas stop!” I gasped as he was about to give him another blow, he heard me and standstill as he glared at the fool who was laying on the floor.
“Nah! Let him get the beating of his life, this idiot deserves it,” Ben chuckled as he walked closer to Damien and kicked his stomach as Damien coughed.
Ben Squatted and grabbed a handful of Damien’s Black hair and forcefully made him face him.
“You know us, Don’t fucking mess with us neither his girl, She’s His and His alone,” Ben growled dangerously as he warned Damien who stared at him in a grimaced face.
Ben’s aura was even more hazardous than that of Lucas…
Ben let go of his hair and stood up as he patted Lucas’s shoulder.
I gripped the straps of my bag tighter on my shoulder as Lucas was walked to the front seat and grabbed the bag he placed on of the chairs.
“He’s out of the team,” Lucas said deeply and grabbed my wrist as he started pulling me along with him, while Ben trailed behind us, I glanced around to see the other boys around staring at us but none of them dare say a word
“Good luck motherfucker!” Damien chuckled and I shook my head, he is surely high on drugs.
We got out of the basketball court as we made our way to the school’s park.
“Camilla, don’t mind that idiot, he’s just senseless,” Ben said as he got to my side while I nodded.
We approached Lucas’s car and Ben’s car wasn’t far from us.
“I’ll be going, you two should take care,” Ben said as he waved at us and was about to walk away.
“Ben!” I called and Lucas gazed at me curiously as he watched my lips waiting to hear what I was about to say.
“Sort things out with Beatrice and take care too,” I said waving at him while he nodded smiling thinly at me.
“He won’t, he is just as stubborn as her and again his parents won’t want him to study anyway except here, so I don’t think he got a choice,” Lucas said while I stared at him in a sigh.
“They might work things out,” I said hopefully as I gazed back at Ben until he got into his Blue sport here.
“Get into the car,” Lucas said as he walked over to the driver’s seat and opened the door.
I heaved out lowly as I turned around and walk to the front door of the car and opened it as I slumped on the passenger’s seat and close the door.
That dickhead had tried to spoil my mood for this day.
“Camilla, don’t think much of what happened now with that idiot, he’s not going to get near you ever, and if he tries anything funny when I’m not around you don’t hesitate to let me know,” He said staring at me while I gazed affectionately at him.
“Come here,” I said as I opened my arms for him, he leaned closer to me and wrapped his arm around me while I buried my face in his neck and kissed his neck.
He withdrew away from me and cupped my cheeks with both hands as he stared into my eyes for a while before he trailed his eyes to my lips and wetted his lips with his tongue as he leaned his face closer to me.
His lips brushed mine softly as I arched to feel his lips on mine but jolted up when we heard a blaring horn, we withdrew from each other as I stared through the window shockingly.
It was Ben as he wind down his window and rested his arm on the windowpane as he stuck his head out of his car.
“You two should go home, and do that in your room,” He said while I blushed furiously and turned my gaze to the front.
“Fuck you!” Lucas cursed and ignited his car as he winded up our window and followed Ben’s car behind us as we got out of the school compound.
