The bad boys good girl

chap 25

"Come on" he said giving me his hand.

I took it and we walked outside. We stood there in silence then I saw him scan my clothes.

"So, " he said "you liked the stuff?"

"Yeah, they're nice, thanks " I said smiling

"Yeah " he said blankly

I nodded and my smile faded..

"You coming to my party Saturday? " he asked

"I didn't know I was invited. " I said looking at the floor

"Course you are " he said

"Then, I'll stop by" I said looking up at him.

He nodded then I realized something that nearly made me want to jump off the balcony.

"What?" He asked looking at me confused

I put my hand up and rubbed my finger on his bottom lip. I looked at my finger and there I knew what I saw wasnt fake.

It was red lipstick. I Scoffed and shook my head.

"Amazing. " I said

"Look," he began but I cut him off

"Who was it? " I asked

"That doesn't matter" he said

"Hunter who? " I asked..

"It doesn't matter Celeste, it was a one time thing " he said

"Then just tell me!"

"Heather." He said defeatedly

"Wowww! Heather?! Really of all people you're gonna screw Heather! " I called out

"I'M not gonna screw her! It was just a kiss" he said back

"No Hunter. I know you and I know Heather, " I said "you make out now and later you have sex with her. Just like you do with everyone else" I yelled

"That's not true, " he said stern yet calm

"Yes it is! " I said

"No it's not. "

"Let's see, " I said "there's Brittany, that girl who was on the volleyball team but she was kicked off for SLEEPING WITH YOU! there's also kaylie, Alexis, Martha, Margarita . The list goes on Hunter but I can't continue it because it's disgusting. " I said

"You're still wrong." He said

"No I'M not. I listed a bunch of girls who you've made out with then brought home. Now Heathers next. You're a pig. " I said turning away

He pulled me back and stood in front of the door "you're wrong, " he said "I've made out with you several times. Have we ever had sex? No! So you're wrong. I don't sleep with girls I makes out with, I sleep with girls who I don't care much about and who are jumping down my pants . I don't care for any of those girls, I do care about you. I haven't slept with you nor am I planning to. I'd never do that to you, I don't want to hurt you anymore okay." he said

"Too late. You hurt me the second your lips made contact with heather's. You know Hunter you know well I'd find out! Why do it, you knew it'd have an effect on me." I said tears building up

"Why do you even care?! " he said raising his voice

"Because Hunter, I LIKE YOU OKAY! DAMN IT! " I yelled out unwillingly

"I LIKE YOU TOO, BUT YOU HURT ME FIRST AND I COULDN'T STAND IT. " he yelled tears also building up in his eyes.

"What?" I asked shocked

"Yes, I like you, scratch that. I love you, I'M crazy for you okay, Ive been in love with you for the longest Celeste. I want to be with you, wanna grow old with you , i wanna have a freaking family with you man but, I know I ruined things before but I wanted to make everything right. That night of the dinner, I was thinking of you so I got up the next day and was going to apologize. I never apologize to anyone, but it's an exception for you. When I got there you were being held by some guy, and you were happy. I can never make you happy and it hurt to see someone else do something that can never do to the woman I love so I left. That's why I've been down this week. My heart was ripped out my chest by someone who I would never expect. To top it all off I saw you walking with him this morning. Again you were laughing, and you looked at peace. It hurt so much Celeste and I wanted to help myself ease the pain I didn't think it would mean anything to you that I kissed Heather since you already have a boyfriend. Someone already has your heart, so I did it. Look I don't expect you to be all cool with this but understand how I feel celeste. I'M not okay, you're in love with someone else. It's alright though because I'm coping. So dont worry, I'M fine and I won't sleep with Heather. Wouldn't dream of it." He said with a few tears down his face.

He wiped my damp cheeks and kissed my forehead. "See you Saturday " he said and walked back inside.
