Arranged marriage to a rich......Jerk?!

Arranged marriage to a rich......Jerk?! {33}

Skye's POV

"Hey Darcy?" I asked Darcy who was checking out some books. We were at the library, and it was at lunchtime.

"Yah?" she replies.

"What do you think of Landon?" I asked.

"Landon? Hm, well he's rude, annoying, has some attitude. But gotta admit, he is pretty good looking." she says.

"Oh..." I said, softly.

"Why?" she asks.

"No reason." I replied.

She looks at me and then smirks, "Oh yes you do have a reason."

"No I don't." I protested.

"Don't lie, Skye. Oh wait!" she says and smiles.

"What?" I asked, wierding out with her look.

"Oh snap. You like Landon, don't you?" she asks.

"What?!" I shouted.

"Shhhh!"

"Sorry." I apologized.

"Admit it, Skye. You like him. Or should I say, love him." she says as we walked out of the library.

"Well..."

"Oh Skye. You do love him." she says.

"No I don't." I said.

"You know, you've been quiet since this morning. Something happened between you and Landon, didn't it?" she asks.

"Maybe..." I replied, looking away.

"Tell me! What happened?" she says.

"I can't tell you in public though." I said.

"Weinee." I heard her mummble.

"Excuse me?" I snapped.

"Just text me." she says.

"Fine...I'll text you when I get home." I said.

"Awww!" she whines, "Why not when you have lunch."

"That's right now!" I said.

"Exactly." she said.

"When I get home. I promise." I said.

"Fine fine. You better." she said.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

School has ended.

Finally! My favorite time of the day!

"Ready to head home?" asks Landon as we got in his car.

"Yup." I replied, softly as I looked out the window. I can't make eye contact with him. I just can't.

"What's wrong?" he asks me.

"Yesterday..." I replied.

"Um, oh. Right, yeah..." he stutters.

"Did something happen yesterday?" asks Amy.

"Nothing happened." I replied.

We got home quietly and pretended like nothing happened.

I ran up to my room and threw myself on my bed.

Oh god.

I've felt so confused and embarassed in my whole entire life. I sat up and took out my phone. I speed dialed Darcy and took a deep breath.

"Tell me, girl!" I heard Darcy shout.

"Hey Darcy." I said.

"Tellmetellmetellme." she chants.

"Okay, okay. Just don't tell anyone." I said.

"Not even Tanner?" she asks.

"Not even Tanner." I said.

"Fine. What is it?" she asks.

"Well, last night. I was in a small mood swing so I decided to take a walk outside. While I was walking, I saw Landon with this puppy. So, we were talking and stuff and then we...sorta...kinda...kissed." I explained with my face bright red.

It was dead silent through the phone. I waited for a couple of seconds and finally said, "Darcy?"

"OHMAHGAWD!!" she shouts.

"Wow, I thought you hung up for a second." I said, relieved.

"You! And Landon! Kissed?! That's amazing! This is big news!" she says.

"Calm down, Darcy. And please don't tell anyone." I said. I can picture Darcy run outside and scream "Landon and Skye kissed!". If she does that, she's so dead.

"Wow. Just wow. I knew you two would make a great couple!" she says.

"Darcy, we might've kissed but we're not going out. Remember? Landon has a girlfriend, Amy." I said.

"Oh right. Her. God, she's annoying as hell." she replies.

"I know right?" I said.

"Anyway, that was big. I really hope you two would go out." she says.

"Right...go out...with Landon." I said, softly.

"Why so down? You two are obviously meant to be together." she says.

"I dunno. Landon and I hate eachother. If we go out: Number one is that nasty rumors will spread in school, number two is that Amy will murder me, number three is that it's just wierd." I said.

"You're right but still. I'll be rooting for you guys!" she says.

"Wait! Darcy!" I said but she hung up.

Oh Darcy...

I put my phone down on the bed side table and walked downstairs.

I spotted Amy talking on her pink Blackberry as I headed towards the kitchen.

Landon was eating a piece of chocolate cake and looked at me. I stared at his cake and asked, "Where did you get that?"

"In the fridge." he says.

I opened the fridge and took out a big chocolate cake. I took a slice and took a bite out of it.

"Amazing...yum." I said.

"You don't care about your weight?" asks Landon.

"Nope. I eat whatever I want." I said.

"Pig." I heard him mummble.

"I heard that!" I said.

"What do you mean? I didn't say anything." he said, smirking.

"Landon!" I snapped.

"Fine fine." he said, chuckling.

"Hey Landon?" I heard Amy coming in the kitchen.

"Yeah?" replies Landon.

"I have some good news." she said, happily.

"What is it?" he asks.

"My parents called and they said that I'll be staying for an extra 2 days." she says.

"What?!" I shouted.

"My parents flight got canceled so they told me to stay for another 2 days." she said.

Amy just glares at me as I stood there in shock.

"Soooo...who wants Chinese take out for dinner?" asks Landon, breaking the awkward silence.

Oh boy. Ohboyohboyohboy.

Oh no.

Relax, Skye. It's just 2 days.

Yeah, it's just 2 days.
