9. Change of events.

Start from the beginning
                                    

The scrape on my knee stung every movement I made as I had to hop mostly on one foot but that did not deter me from getting dressed. I did some minimal make up and was now ready to go.

I might want little attention but this was not school here so that would give me the green light to dress how I want since everyone would be at school. My curiosity going haywire as I sat impatient waiting for Kristen to make his presence known.

"Anna there's someone here to see you." Vicky yelled outside my door.

My anxiety increased ten folds as I told Vicky to send him in.

"Bella," his husky voice resonated in the room. He sported blue skinny jeans, a white t-shirt, a black leather jacket, and a pair of blue Air Max sneakers.

"Kristen," I replied.

His stern expression revealed nothing as he approached me, assessing my attire before giving a subtle nod of approval. The sense of acceptance sparked a flutter of butterflies within me.

"W...where are you taking me?" I asked, blushing slightly under his lingering gaze.

"Out."

"Where is 'out,' and aren't you supposed to be in school?" I inquired, curiosity piqued.

"I took the day off for something of utmost importance," he shrugged.

"What could be more important than school?" I mused, rising from the bed.

"Find out for yourself," he replied, extending his hand for me to take.

"Why...?" I pondered.

He chuckled, tilting his head back and clutching his stomach, one hand steadying himself on the side of the sofa. His laughter was infectious, and I couldn't help but smile at how I managed to make Kristen, the bad boy, laugh.

"You know, most girls would swoon at the chance to go out with me, but you... you're a different story."

"Why?"

"Because you're exceptional," he responded, causing my cheeks to tingle.

"Huh?"

"Come on, princess," he grabbed my hand and effortlessly lifted me into his arms, providing a sense of security. I buried my face in his neck to conceal my blush.

"I can walk, you know," I protested, although secretly not wanting him to let me go.

"I know."

Thirty minutes later we we're now at an Oster bay restaurant deciding what to eat. It was situated near the end of a sea. Children and couples danced around on the sea shore it was beautiful.

I ordered a shrimp ravioli on a margaritaville. While Kristen on the other end ordered a stake house on the grill and dare I say the food was delicious!

I sat on my chair gazing around the beautiful scenery, I wanted to Know so desperately what was the meaning behind this. I was anxious.

"Not a another why question Bella." Kristen said before I was about to speak.

"But could you at least give me some answers?" I pleaded.

He groaned aggravated by my need for answers slumping back in his chair he took an intense glance at me before rubbing his forehead.

"What do you want to know?"

"Well firstly I want to Know why am I here?"

"Look your foot was injured and I figured you wouldn't be coming to school today so I decided why not take you out." he finished rolling his eyes at me.

"But why?"

"It's the least I could do since it was Regina who caused it."

"But you've never cared for anyone not even Regina for that matter."

"You know for a very smart girl that knows everything your very dense about things that happens around you." he replied blankly.

"I'm not dense and I never said I knew everything!...... I'm just a little slow on some aspects" retorted defensively.

"Clearly." he replied flatly looking away.

I gritted my teeth out of pure annoyance as I stood from my seat hissing in pain but determined to get the hell away from him. He can't just do and say things as he pleases without as little as an explanation!

"Wait Bella I didn't mean that." he said grabbing on to my hand.

"Well what did you mean Kristen because nothing you've said hasn't made any sense so far!" I gritted out not caring as heads turned our way.

"Look it's a lot complicated and could you stop creating a scene." he hissed lowly.

"I have to go." I said pulling my hand from his.

I didn't know how the hell I'd reach home but I wasn't staying anywhere near that imbecile for another second.

"Wait Bella!"

"Leave me alone you jerk!" I shouted courageous enough.

"I fucking like you ok!" he yelled closely from behind.

"What?" I snapped my head around to see a very distressed Kristen with tinted cheeks looking towards the floor.

"What did you just say?" I asked unable to comprehend and wanting to make sure of what I just heard. His hands bolled into fists looking up and staring me in the eyes he then whispered the words I'd soon dread and love the most.

"I like you."
