You and Me

Chapter 8

I woke up Monday morning and no one was in the room. Mason and Aria had spent the night. I got up and walked out of the room. I smelt bacon and then looked at the time on my phone. Holy shit! It's noon. "Guys are we ditching today or something." They turned around smiling. "Schools been cancelled. How great is that. We're going to the mall after breakfast." I smiled. "Awesome."

I ran back upstairs and decided to get ready. "Hey." The girls walked in. "Hey. Just gonna get ready." I said shuffling through my bags. I pulled out a black dress and some black heels with gold on them.

I started changing. When I was done I turned around and saw that both Maya and Aria were dressed. Maya had on some ripped leggings and just a red leather jacket with some black heels.

"Nice." They both said pointing at my outfit. "Not to bad y'all selves." I said looking at their outfits. Aria had on a 5sos shirt with a flannel over it a beanie and some black shoes.

"Yeah. Well let's go eat breakfast." We all walked down together when someone knocked on the door. "I'll get it." I said walking to the door. I opened the door and saw Jordan standing there. "And what do you want?" I said leaning against the door. "I wanted to talk to you." I smirked. "About what." He looked down at his feet then back up at me. "Would you stop torturing me." I chuckled confused. "What are you talking about?" He glared at me. "You know damn well what I'm talking about." I shook my head. "No I really don't."

He grabbed my wrist and pulled me outside shutting the door behind me. He pushed me against the door with his arms caging me In. "You know what you do to me Katherine." I smirked up at him. "Yes. I do know." I really do know what I do to him. But I do this cause of what he did to me. "Then why do you do it?" I chuckled. "You really don't know do you." He shook his head. "I had the biggest crush on you in junior high. And when you asked me to the dance I was so freaking happy. But you broke my heart when I found out you only asked me so I could get 'Carried'. Y'all dumped water on me and rigged the vote to make me think people actually thought we could be good together. But no. You weren't the guy for me and you still aren't." I pushed at his chest making him stumble away from me as tears fell down my face.

"I'm really sorry Katherine. I was put up to it. I really liked you to." I scoffed at him. "Then why the hell did you do it!" I yelled at him making him look down at his feet. "I honestly didn't know they were gonna do that to you." I pushed him again. "Are you fucking kidding me. You just told me you were put up to it." More and more tears fell down my face. "They forced me to ask you to the dance,okay! I wasn't going to ask you cause I didn't think you liked me! They were blackmailing me. They had a picture of me I didn't want anyone to see not even you." I was shocked by his tone of voice and I started backing away.

"Come on Katherine. I want you so bad that I would do anything for you and you can't see that." More tears fell down my cheeks when he said that and I stopped moving. Instead of walking backwards I slowly started moving forward until I was right in front of him.

I cupped his cheeks and slowly pulled his face down to mine. I kissed him slowly and softly. He had his hands on my wrist and drew circles on the back of my hand as I pulled away. "That's all I wanted to hear." He looked at me confused. "All I wanted to hear is that you would do anything for me and I won't take advantage of that I promise." I said and pecked his lips. "Thank you." I said wrapping my arms around his neck in a tight hug. He wrapped his arms around my waist and placed his head in the crook of my shoulder.

"I'm gonna go to the mall with my friends so I'll talk to you later." I said as  he started walking to his car. When he drove off I smiled to myself and walked inside. Before I opened the door I heard shuffling around as if they were trying to move fast. I slowly opened the door and saw Mason glaring at me. "What?" I said holding out my hands. "Why." Is all he said. I looked at him confused. "Don't act like you don't know." Maya said stepping next to Mason smiling. "Yeah." Aria said standing on the opposite side. "We saw y'all kiss." I looked down at my feet and blushed. "Can we talk about this later and just go to the mall."

"Yeah. We'll talk." I heard Mason mumble under his breath and walk out to his car. "Don't worry about him. He's just pissed that it's Jordan your kissing." I looked at her confused again. "There are reasons he doesn't like Jordan. But we'll let him tell you that."

We all walked out to the car where Mason had hopefully cooled off. "You ok now." Maya asked as she sat in the front seat with him. "Yeah I'm good now." I saw a little blood on his knuckles. "What did you punch?" I said leaning forward and grabbing his hand and looking at it. I saw him look at a tree that was in the front yard. "Are you fucking crazy. Why the hell would you do that." I put his hand down gently. "I was mad okay. And I'm sorry that I was sort of mean to you." I smiled and looked at Maya. "Aww." We said in unison. "He's apologizing." I saw him blush. "Shut up guys." He said pulling out of the driveway.
