Bad Intentions

Eight

I heard a scoff from behind. 

The affection from Nate is something I should be use to after the many years of friendship, but after two years of no contact I'm sure my face held shocked. Nate's glanced up and gave Jace a glare almost as if he was rubbing that bit of affection in his face. His lips filled with a smirk before he turned on his heels and walked away.

I heard someone clear their throat, annoyed. I turned around to see Jace glaring at me with intense hazel eyes. "Oh please, don't let me interrupt your lovey dovey moment." He spat.

I narrowed my eyes. "Excuse me? That" I said pointing spot Nate was standing at. "Wouldn't have happened if you weren't being a jerk."

Jace arched his perfect brow, surprised I would challenge his words. "Did you not ask for my help?"

"Yes, I did!" I exclaimed. Yes, I asked for his help. But I wasn't expecting a almost brawl in front of the entire senior class. "But-"

"But, what Leah?" He cut me off as his cold eyes stared into me.

"I don't want you to fight him!" I told him throwing my hands up in the air. He scoffed once more. "You don't need to fight him."

Jace shrugged his shoulders. "Afraid I would wreck his pretty little face?" An icy smile landed on his lips.

I'm sure Jace could handle his own and the same with Nate. But I don't want anyone getting hurt.

I groaned in frustration. I was completely done with him right now. "You know what." I told him. "I'm done talking to you and I'm done with this party. I'm going home." I turned to walk away from Jace and his jerk face when I felt a strong hand grab my arm keeping me in place.

I turned around glancing down to hand on my arm and back to Jace. "What?" I asked annoyed.

"I'll take you home." He stated matter of factly. I arched a brow.

"And why would you do that?" I asked curiously and a bit surprised.

"Aren't we suppose to sell that we are a thing?" He asked and I nodded. In a way, yes we're suppose to sell the idea of us together. "Well, if we leave together then that would start the spark. The whole senior class is here to witness us leaving together."

He made a good point. If the students in our class could believe it, so will Nate.

I didn't know what to say, so Jace took my silence as a yes and took my hand into his pulling me out through the crowd. We weaves through a few people. Many looked at us with curiosity, some didn't even give us a glance. They must think I'm Jace's next conquest. Another one to add to his book.

If only they knew.

My eyes caught Kayla's gaze as we walked pass the makeshift dance floor. Her eyes widen in shock and disbelief. If she didn't think anything was going on with Jace before, she does now.

I will tell her everything soon.

Jace led me towards his sleek black Audi RS 5 that was park close to the clearing. There were a few people hanging out around the cars and some were leaving.

I would be lying if I said I didn't ogle over his car. It was freaking gorgeous. It was all blacked out and even in the moonlight it shined so beautifully.
