10. The kiss.

Olivia

"Then why did you kiss me?" I say and his face fells.

"What the fuck are you saying right now?" he laughs, and I narrow my eyes. Is he fucking denying it?

"Stop playing the fool, you know what I'm talking about.'' I say.

"No, I don't. Care to explain?'' he asks.

No freaking way.

Is he playing with me right now?

''I'm talking about you kissing me that night at your party.'' I say and he smiles.

"You've been fantasizing about me?" he asks.

What?

"What the hell are you saying?" I ask confused.

Me fantasize? About him?

''I never kissed you.'' he says.

"Yes, you did.''

''Look Olivia the only time I was close to you was when we were dancing together and the time we talked outside. And I didn't know who you were. I went up to my room and you were long gone. And I found my room completely ruined, it was you I suppose?"  he asks and I hear myself answering.

"Yes, it was me.''

"Well-''

"I ruined the room after you kissed me.'' I say and disappointment flashes in his features and it vanishes as soon as it appears.

"I did not kiss you.'' he says. '' You were lying in my bed. You must have dreamed about it.''

My face fells.

Well, I really was lying in his bed, could I have really dreamed about it?

Was I asleep all that time?

What the fuck is happing with my head?

Focus Olivia.

I wasn't asleep, was I?

Oh God.

''Look it's okay.'' he says coming closer to me, ''I'm not judging you; it happens to everyone. You were dreaming about it and then you woke up and thought it was real.''

"That's not true.'' I say unsure.

"Let just forget about it. I never kissed you and I will never mention your dream to you or to anyone else. Don't worry about it.'' he smiles, and I swallow.

Well, he must be right. Cuz why would he kiss me?

Oh my God, this is so fucking embarrassing.

I dreamed about it.

I nod and Joel smiles.

I turn to leave, but then I remember, ''I never told you that I was lying in your bed. How did you know about that?" I ask and his face fells.

"Well, you said that you ruined my room after I kissed you, so I figured.'' he shrugs.

I laugh.

Oh, my fucking God, I fucking fell for it!

''You're a scary manipulative man Joel Cullen. I actually fell for it.'' I laugh and he clenches his jaw.

"But you can't manipulate me.''  I narrow my eyes.

"Worth a try.'' he says.

"I'm actually impressed. You're the first person that escaped my manipulation.'' he says putting his hands at the pockets of his trousers.

So, he does this all the time? Manipulating people?

Fuck, he's good at it. If I didn't remember that I didn't tell him where he kissed me, he would've manipulated me too.

"Well, I'm smart.'' I smirk.

"Nah, I just went easy on you.'' he says, and I look at him annoyed.

"Loser's words.'' I say and he chuckles.

"Why did you kiss me?'' I ask and he rolls his eyes.

"You won't let it go, will you?" he asks.

"Absolutely not.''

"It was just a stupid thing. Don't get it twisted.'' he says annoyed.

A stupid thing?

I lost my first kiss because of this idiot's stupid decisions?

"What do you mean a stupid thing? You fucking kissed me!'' I say frustrated.

"Come on, it wasn't even a proper kiss. It was just stupid, it doesn't matter.'' he says.

"It doesn't matter?"  I gasp and he shrugs.

I can't believe it.

He kissed me and now it doesn't matter?

''Maybe for you it doesn't matter, but for the others is a huge thing asshole!'' I say hitting his chest.

''Look, I'm sorry I did that. But why are you acting like you never kissed before? People do that all the time and it doesn't mean they fucking like each other! Ours wasn't even a real kiss, why are you putting so much trouble into it?" he says.

He's such a disgusting person. He kissed me without my fucking permission and now he's telling me that it's normal?

Does he think that girls are toys he can kiss and fuck whenever he wants?

"You're disgusting.'' I say my voice hurt and his face fells.

''Oh come, just because I kissed you? I didn't know who the fuck you were! And why the fuck did you come to my party?'' he yells.

"So, you're saying that it's my fault because I came to your party?" I yell back.

''Yes.'' he says, and I laugh humorlessly.

"I can't believe it.''

"Stop being this dramatic just because of a kiss. You weren't the only girl I kissed that night, and I probably wasn't the only guy you kissed.'' he says.

"I fucking hate you.'' I say.

I didn't hate him a couple of minutes ago. But now I really hate him.

His words hurt me.

He kissed me because I'm just like the other girls.

A kiss means nothing to guy like him.

But it means so much to me.

"I said I'm sorry.'' he says.

"Give me my phone back.''

"Olivia-''

"My phone, Joel.''

He takes it out of his pocket and gives it to me. I snatch it from his hand and turn to leave.

"Don't come near me again.'' I say and leave.

"I'm not dying to be near you.'' I hear him say.

I have this bad urge to cry.

My first kiss is my enemy and I'm just a fucking play game to him.

Just a fun night that doesn't matter the other day.

He ruined my first kiss, and I will ruin his life.

''So how are the Cullens behaving? '' my dad asks.

We're eating dinner and my dearest mother has cooked my favorite dish ever.

Lasagna.

"Good.'' Lucy answers.

Not good at all.

My conversation with Joel at the PE class replayed at my mind at I shake my head to clear that thought.

"They intended to take our place at the cafeteria.'' I say.

"Hm?'' Dad raises his eyebrow.

"Yes, and your dearest daughter here offered them to stay with us.'' I say pointing at Lucy and she glares at me.

"Is that true cupcake?" dad asks Lucy.

"Yes.'' she answers wiping her mouth with a napkin.

"May I ask why you did that, sweetheart?'' dad asks.

"Because she wants to make peace with them.'' I speak.

"Because this way we have them closer, and we can observe their moves. You know, keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.'' she smirks.

Oh.

I really judged her.

"I knew that you were smart, but not this much.'' I say.

"That's my daughter.'' dad says proud and Lucy rolls her eyes.

"With the Cullens close we can destroy them easier.'' I say.

It makes so much sense damn it. Why didn't I think of it before?

"Yes, but we need to be careful too, because the Cullens are close to us too." Lucy says.

"True. We need to watch our moves.'' I say.

"Make me proud my little Meyers.'' dad cheers.

"What did I miss?" mom says bringing the chocolate puddings she made for dinner.

"A lot, dear mother.'' I say and tell her the news.

''No matter what, we're kicking them out again.'' I say.

"Teach them who the Meyers are.'' dad high-fives me.

"To the Meyers!'' me and dad yell raising our glasses.

"To the Meyers.'' mom and Lucy say in a low voice rolling their eyes.

They can be boring sometimes.
