Sweet Addiction
Chapter 6; Don't break me.
"So class, you will be pairing up with someone for this project. Pick whoever you want and by tomorrow, i want you to hand in the names of the groups." Mr. Gregs says, our Chemistry teacher.
"So for the next fifteen minutes left for the lesson to end, pick your partners. Choose wisely. Now Chap Chap!!" He claps his hands motioning for us to start looking for partners.
We are now in Chemistry, which sadly for me, none of my friends are in this class except Kyle. I dont want to go disturb him by asking to be partners because i dont want to look like a clingy friend which I'm not.
I haven't spoke to Kyle since this morning when he drove me to school. Last night, he let me sleep in his room as he took the couch. I offered for him to lie with me but he hit me back with my 'friends' excuse so i let him be.
This morning he woke me up and fed me breakfast like literally fed me with his hands. He gave me some of his clothes, a big black shirt with his signature cologne and some jeans from Abuela's room that belonged to his daughter who was about my size. Kyle told me Abuela and her went for a week's vacation and will be back tomorrow.
These small things he does for me bring him closer to my heart slowly and slowly and he doesn't even know or realise it.
When we arrived at school, to say people were staring at me would be an understatement. People were literally gawking at us, many girls throwing envious looks. Kyle decided to make the situation even more funny by putting his arm around my shoulder. When i was about to pull it off, he whispered in my ear, "Friends do this, right?" And i had no choice but to let it be, you cohld actually hear the gasps coming from the students.
I stay in my seat as i wait for all the students to pick their partners and i partner up with the last one. Many girls shoot up to go to Kyle's desk to ask him but he shuts them up with his deathly scowl that has them fleeing from his desk with flips of their hair.
Just because they saw Kyle act friendly with me doesnt mean they can act like they have been friends for a while. Friendship is earned and you look for it.
"Hey chipmunk." Creepy Brandon appears in front of me. I smile at him then look back down at my notebook.
I dont want to deal with him right now.
"I see you have no partner." He says taking a seat in front of my desk. I look up at him and he has that weird creepy smirk on his face.
"I dont want to be your partner." I state firmly looking away from his face.
"Oh come on! I'll make sure you have fun while we're at it." He smirks seductively.
I think...
I think I'm gonna puke.
I get up from my seat and look around for a partner. I need to get away from this nincompoop jerk. I spot Kyle sitting alone, no one beside him, and i quickly make my way to him.
I dont care if I'm being clingy. I just want a partner for this assignment. I would rather be with anyone in this class than creepy Brandon.
"I see you can't resist me." Kyle smirks and i playfully slap his shoulder.
Jerk.
"Naa....i just wanted to get away from creepy Brandon." I explain looking back to where i was and find him still staring at me and mouthing, 'I know you want this' motioning to his body.
Someone get me a knife!
Euu.....what the frick is wrong with him?!
"What? Is he bothering you?" Kyle asks in a deathly tone, glaring at him, and he quickly looks away.
"Just leave it. I can handle him." I sigh taking a seat opposite him .
"By the way, thank you f-"
"Stop thanking me." He scowls at me.
"But i ne-"
"Stop."
"Fine." I roll my eyes at him.
"You are coming over at my place after school. I'll pick you up." He says.
"I need to know something?" I ask and he motions for me to go ahead. I prop my elbows onto the desk looking at him in the eye. He does the same and the space between us reduces to two inches. I smile at him,
"This work you do in your office?"
"What about it?"
"When, how and......when?"
"At night or sometimes in the evening or during day. I do business calls, meetings and handle my company." He explains and my heart goes in awe.
"How come you have all that at a young age?" I ask seeming interested in his life story.
"When my parents died, it was their company so they gave it to my older brother who also died at 14, handling it over to me."
I purse my lips and my heart starts to ache for him, "I'm sorry."
"I didnt care about any of them, either way." He shrugs.
I smile, "How are you so young and wise enough to take over and control such a huge company?"
"I'm 19." He scowls at the part where i called him young. "Its in the genes, i guess." He shrugs.
"Are you happy?" I ask on a serious note. Having all that money and a big responsibility with no family or friends must be sad and lonely. I know he has his abuela but he deserves to be happy in other places.
"I don't know how it feels like." He says in a vulnerable way, with a sigh.
Awwww.....baby.
"Do you want to know how it feels like?" I ask holding his hands rubbing them soothingly.
"Are you going to show me?" He asks with hopeful eyes.
"Do you want me to show you?" I ask with a small smirk at how he is scowling.
Answering a question with a question.
It's annoying, i know.
"Yes." He says with honesty in his voice and i smile. "But on one condition."
"What's that?"
He places his hand on my cheek and all breathing is knocked out of my system. He stares intensely at me,
"Don't break me."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Tell us." Elena probes while watching me as if I'm some interesting show on netflix, with a box of fries.
"Yes, tell us, chica or you wont have some of my sausages." He winks at me and i fake gag at him.
"I'm good." I fake smile at him.
"Tell uss." Trina says in frustration at the long wait.
"Okay okay fine." I state sighing. Its lunch time now and the guys want me to tell them why I've been the 'talko' of the school lately.
I tell them everything leaving out the part of my mam, the almost kisses and his cute moments.
"Aww.....he has a soft spot for you." Elena says holding her heart.
"Yeah but why you?" A girl i dont know, sneers, walking by. She is dressed in a short skimpy 3 year old skirt and a 2 year old blouse with soft cussions as boobs.
Mean girl!
Wait, i thought those were only in the movie! Oh well!
I choose to ignore her but the rest dont, "Thats because he doesnt have a spot for bimbos." Trina fires back.
Oh God!
"And she doesnt dress like you." Elena says eyeing her up and down like some sort of ugly food on the menu.
Jesus, save us!
She looks at our table, sending a glare to me. God, i hate this drama. Its supposed to stay in high school romance books and drama movies.
"That's Kendal. She tries to gets in everyone's pants but has failed with Kyle because he isnt interested." Elena explains.
"She tries so hard. She is now jealous because you have managed to steal his attention." Trina says scowling in her direction.
"I didnt steal his attention." I explain myself and everyone at the table looks at me like i've lost it.
"The guy is literally obsessing over you," Trina says motioning her head behind me.
I follow her lead and my eyes lock on Kyle. He is sitting with the 6 guys from yesterday.
He motions his head for me to come over, "Guys, excuse me." I get up and walk over to him.
I smile at him and sit next to him. He wraps his arm around my shoulder and pulls me closer to him. He leans in and whispers into my ear, "Hi."
I smile widely looking up into his mesmerising eyes, "Hey."
I look around the table and all 6 pairs of eyes are on Kyle and i. "Hey guys." I drawl out with a nervous smile.
"So this is the girl that has made you start ignoring us?" One of the guys at the table asks.
"Shut up!" Kyle growls angrily at him
"No, you shut up!" I scowl at him and his scowl deepens and so does mine.
"Ooooohhhhh!" The guys at the table start making those sounds, some high fiving me.
"I'm Valentino, the hottest. There's John, Derek, Jason, Martinez and Parker." Valentino introduces the guys.
All the guys have a hard look and all look badass. All with tattoos and strong well built bodies. Valentino is a black haired guy with an ear piercing and blue cute eyes. John and Jason look a like, both are blondes with green eyes and have nose piercings with many tattoos. Derek looks like the quiet guy who doesnt say much. He is a brunette with green eyes and hair pulled backwards like the French. Martinez is a cute brown haired guy, also very built up almost like Kyle and he also has that 'touch me and ill .... with you look'. Parker is also a blonde with very many piercings and also a meany look.
They are all smoking hot!
But not as hot and sexy as Kyle.
Shut up, Marla!
"Nice to meet y'all." I smile at each of them who return it. At least they dont always scowl or glare like someone i know......
"So these are your friends?" I turn to Kyle.
"No."
"Oh come on man! You know you love us!" John and Jason say at the same time and i cringe. Yep, these two are totally twins. No doubt.
"I think it's the opposite." Kyle grumbles from beside me.
"Well its not the opposite when it comes to her." Parker mumbles to himself.
"Shut the fuck up!" Kyle growls and i chuckle to myself.
"So Van, would -"
"Vanessa." Kyle corrects Valentino with a scowl who in turn just smirks.
"Would you love to join us at the beach house this weekend?" Val asks and i smile.
"Of course."
I try to play it cool but I'm bursting in excitement on the inside. Yaaayyyy!
"Oh and please bring bikinis." Val adds and receives a painful smack on the head from Kyle. The guys laugh at him as he whines in pain.
"May i invite my friends?" I ask Kyle.
"No."
I give him my infamous puppy dog eyes with a pout. "Pretty pleasee"
The gears in his head start turning and he looks like he is about to give in so i pull ot my bottom lip and he sighs running a hand through his hair, "Fine."
"Lets all say it together!" Valentino announces staring at the guys who all nod.
"Whipped!" They all say in unison.
