When you fall in love with a player

Chapter 6

We arrive in the school parking lot 15 minutes before school actually starts. He parks his bike in the back right side of the parking lot. I get off the bike then he follows while in the process he grabs my hand and we start walking towards the school. We haven't even made it inside the school before we are already being stared at and talked about. I mean I guess it's more or less because of my appearance change and less about us dating but still I mean come on don't they have anything better to do. We get through the big herd of people gawking at us and finally make it to our lockers. We split to go to our own lockers and I start to un load my books into my locker when I feel a hand on my shoulder. I assumed it was Dakota but I was wrong,cause when I turned around it was Alex who was one of the bad boys of the school not as street cred bad boy as Dakota but pretty close. Think of it this way Dakota was alpha bad boy and Alex was beta. If that helps make it less confusing. "So I see miss nerdy pants over  hear got a new make over." He says with a smirk on his face that would even make the Grinch ashamed. "Good job you have eyes and can see." I say just as icy as he did. "Okay listen up sweetie you don't get to talk to me like that." He says with all seriousness but seeing as how I'm back to my old self I don't take account of that. "First of all don't call me that again or else and second of all you aren't the top dog anymore so I can talk how ever I want to." I say placing my hands on my hips. At this point he literally looks like he wants to punch me in the face." Excuse me but who does little miss bitch thinks she is talking to!" He says almost like a threat. But I don't back down that easily I refuse to be that nerd any longer I was always getting pushed around as her not anymore. "Call me that one more time and I swear you will regret it cause clearly you don't have a brain." I say as icy as I could, while I also put my hands on my hips. Up from behind me I feel a set of hands slip around my waist, but I don't move from the position I am in I'm not letting this lame ass excuse for a person win this there is no way. "Babe what's wrong?" Dakota asks while still holding me close to him by the waist. "Nothing I'm just showing this pice of shit what he's messing with." I say balling my hands in a fist. And before I knew it there was like this red mist that came over me and I couldn't stop my self I swung at Alex and it wasn't no girly punch ether it was a hard swing. But before my fist could connect with his faceI hit someone's hand instead and bet you could guess who's hand that was. Yeah you guessed it Dakota he blocked my fist from hitting Alex don't know why but he did. "Then with out letting go of my wrists he just turns and looks at Alex with a face I hope I never am on the receiving end of. "Next time I'm not going to stop her." He says to him. Then he says with a kinda of lower tone of voice " but just remember if she has to hit you that means you upset her, which means you will upset me and you don't want that to happen." Then with one quick nod Alex walks quickly away not even looking back. "Explanation now" he says to me. "It's nothing." I say harshly and start to walk away I try to walk as quickly as possible because I knew if I wasn't quick enough he would catch up to me. I guess I wasn't quick enough because I was grabbed by the arm and stopped. "That wasn't a request" he tells me. Who made him the boss of me. " I don't want to talk about Dakota" I tell him and walk away. "Bad answer baby"he says so sarcastically that I felt kinda of a ripple in the space time continuum. He doesn't say anything but instead picks me up and again puts me on his shoulder. He is joking right we are in school!! And he is carrying me on his shoulder like a book bag. "Dakota what the hell do you think you are doing!! Put me down right now." I scream. He carry's me on his back for at least five minutes until we get to a room. He opens the door and locks it then puts me down. No sooner than him putting me down the bell rings which means we are late. "Dakota we are already late what are you doing?" I ask him annoyed at him for picking me up and locking me in here. I can't see anything because it is completely pitch black. "Dakota where are you?" I ask feeling around worried I was going to fall into or bump something. You know to be honest I think I need to get some life insurance or something for the amount of time this boy scares me. Because seriously this makes it like the twenty thousandth time he's scared me in just a week. He grabs me by the waist and quickly pulls me to him and kisses me. Yeah I know weird right. But I'm not saying I didn't enjoy It because I did it was passionate and sweet and just all around amazing. Once he's done he pulls away for me and then turns on the light. "Now that was strange why did you kiss me and especially in what looks like to be a janitors closet?" I ask him. He simply leans up against the door all cool like and says" the kiss was for two reasons, one reason was because I wanted to." Which of course me being me made me blush. " and for two for trying to punch Alex" I'm beyond confused by this boy. "Wait hold up your proud of me for trying to punch him?" This has got to be an alternative universe where what is wrong is right and what is right is wrong. "Yeah I'm proud of you for that, you stood up for yourself." I'm probably blushing so much right now. And before I had time to react my brain just decided that I was going to jump up and give him a hug, I have a feeling that this caught him off guard because we both almost fell over onto a pile of mops. "Why did you do that?" He asks me trying to stable us from falling over. "Because you care about me." I say burying my head into the nape of his neck. He looks down at me for a moment then embraces me in a hug that would put bear hugs to shame. "Of course I care about you." He tells me still hugging me. Then out of no where he says "do you trust me?"he asks me kinda softly. "Yeah of course I do." I say back pulling away slightly to be able to look up at him curiously. "Okay then follow me." He says with a very evil smile. We stay huddled up in the janitors closet while he pulls out his phone and starts dialing someone. He sits for a minute while it is ringing and then motions for me to be quite when he answered. I hear muffled voices on the other side of the conversation and then I hear Dakota, " yes hello is this Mr. Blake?" Dakota says in a deeper voice than he actually has not a much deeper voice but you could definitely tell the difference. More muffled voices,"well this is Mr.Shepared, Octavia's father and I would like to tell you that she will not be attending school on account that she has come down with a cold." He says with a very convincing voice. They go back and forth talking for a bit then they say goodbye and hang up. Then he go's through the same process this time just saying that it was his dad. When he is done playing pretend he hangs up puts the phone back in his pocket and sits there looking at me very satisfied with himself. "Okay so what now "dad" I say mockingly while elbowing him in the side. He giggles then says " well I was going to kiss you but then you had to call me that so now I'm not." He says crossing his arms over his chest. After about a minute of pouting he simply gets up grabs my hand and me and him both sneak out of the school and to his bike we walk the bike a little ways done so as to not get caught. Then when we are about a half a block away we get on the bike and start heading towards the park. So today is officially off to a great start. I can't believe I'm skipping school with Dakota. I mean seriously of all people Dakota, but I guess he's not all that bad. Today is going to be an amazing day. This thought keeps buzzing around in my head as I lay my head down on his back and wrap my arms around his waist. I feel his body kind of Shake so I figured he must be giggling, we approach a stop sign and as we come to a stop he bends his head and kisses my hand. Okay scratch that today is going to be fantastic
