The entire cafeteria was in echoed in laughter seeing that the redhead just embarrassed herself. Nathan and Alex were enjoying the scene and Max was indeed laughing himself. I pulled my chair back under the table dropped the cup in front of her and toke my tray full of trash dumping near the trashcan near the exit
"Yall coming ?" I asked across the cafe as the 3 boys stood up making their way to join me as he left you could hear her scream in anger haha
"I can't believe you did that !" Max said covering his face and smile from all the laughter
Alex and Nathan doing the same. Nathan and Alex walked ahead
Going to the store "Jimmy" Me and Max stayed behind staying silent as we walked to our destination of nowhere.
Max decided to break the silence "So were you that jealous I got another girls number? This bet going to be easier then I thought!!"
"No, I did what I did because she called me a boy and thought she could embarrass me in front of yall. This bet I'm going to win and there nothing you can do about it !!" I said staring at the streaming lights that filled the side of the shops.
"In the time in time, you'll fall in love with me like the others! Who couldn't without these good looks and my bad boy vibe !" he snickered
"Oh so now you're agreeing you're a bad boy! Hard to believe you are except for the massive player part I haven't seen you done anything bad ever actually never really heard of you either."
I said
He looked at me as if he thought I was lying, "so you don't know anything about me?"
I shook my head "No I didn't even know what your name was!"
He looked down for a second and looked back up "I've done some pretty bad things in my time."
Just like I could tell Ruby didn't want to tell me what had happened last night I knew he didn't want to either and that was fine.
" It's ok no matter what you do ill always be your fake girlfriend. Until of course, I win!" I proudly stuck my hands upon my hips
"In your dreams." "Come on," he said tugging my arm bringing me into a store full of clothing
" So here's what going to happen! You and I are going to pick each other Outfit out and we have to wear it to school on Monday! Got it ?" Max demanded
"Why so pushy ill do it because I'm bored and I have nothing else to do ! rules are it cant be a silly custome it has to be real clothes and we cant look at it until Monday morning we have to try it on! Got it?" I said raising a finger
"Sure why not! Text me your sizes in a little bit while I raid the lady section maybe find me a girl to play with?" He said raising an eyebrow
"Yea and you'll be breaking the terms of our agreement and ill be breaking the bone structure in your face" I laughed
"OH NO NOT THE FACE!!!!" he screamed
"OH YES THE FACE IT SHALL BE!!" We burst out laughing almost causing me to tear up.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I had already sent Max my sizes for all clothes as he did the same I decided to get him one hell of a classic bad boy look.
I was getting looks in the boy section by the lady workers as so was Max as he continued to flirt with them holding up girl clothes! Oh the irony
I went to the plain white shirts grabbed one along with some black skinny jeans. I needed something to finish off the look that I was creating and I found it!
I ran over to the rack of black jackets but not just any jacket I lifted it up seeing such grace within the image. In my point of view, a picture says a million words but this was deeper than that.
Just a little symbol could mean a lot maybe not to you but it did to me and whether or he would wear it. I'm getting it!
It was A Black jeaned leatherish jacket with a Red rose letting the sun hit off it but it was being held by a hand without flesh. A rose held by a skeleton hand and therefore gave it meaning.
The leaves were illustrated so perfect yet edgy great value and at a great price. I went to grab it as another did the same.
PART2
I looked up to see my ex-boyfriend Owen He was tall but not as tall as Max. His hair was black with red strips at the top he was wearing vans with jeans with a hoodie saying Jerk all over it.
Why would I ever date someone as repulsive as he?
I snatched the jacket from his grasp and he gave a cold smirk.
"I'm going to get you back from what you did!" he said with a rush of cold heart going through his glare!
"I didn't do anything to you I can't help that I rejected you because you were trying to force me into something I wasn't ready for! Not to mention the part about me Dumping you! Bet that hurt your reputation as well ?" I said giving a cold glare as well
He raised his voice "You're nothing why do you think your dad never came back for you" I felt the pain pierce my heart knowing I trusted him a long time ago and he used it against me because I'm weak
I tried to hold back tears of things I didn't want to remember
"Hey, Gracie whats going on over here" I turn to see Max in front of us having a bag he just bought in his hands and quickly put my head down thinking if he could see my eyes tearing up he would ask and I didn't want to be asked.
I went up to the cashier and paid my stuff and got out of the store. I walked outside sat on the bench outside and finally decided its time to come home.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I parked my car beside the curb getting out locking the doors fleeing inside my home hoping no one was there it was only 7 I spent the whole day at the mall and getting there and coming back.
I hope Max didn't think he did something. Its fine ill sees him tomorrow anyway.
I walked in the door of my home and saw My mom sitting on the couch arms crossed!
"Where have you been? You just left and didn't even tell anyone where you had went off to! This isn't like you !" She said
"Really then tell me why brothers home!? I didn't want to deal with him right now ok Its been 3 years and he comes back now !" I yell
"He just wants to patch things through Gracie" she frowned
"No he doesn't he wants to make things worse I'm going to sleep I have school tomorrow! I love you goodnight" I went upstairs opening my door seeing Ruby on the bed looking at her phone
I laid my keys on the table as well as the bag full of new clothes and my phone I went to sit on my bed alongside her.
"I'm sorry I didn't answer back I just didn't want to be found. I was at the mall with Max, Alex, and Nathan. We ate and I messed up a girls shirt on purpose not to mention I bought Max clothes as he did for me as a little game! We have to wear it tomorrow whatever the other picked out for the other. So how was your day?" I Looked at her and she smiled
" Wow seems like you had fun but look it's not your brother's fault. Someday you're going to have to forgive him." she held my hand
" I know but I don't want to now I can feel it when he's here I can feel the pain I can feel my dad in his life and didn't want to be with mine he said the hell with me not to mention what he did to you! I know he's up to something" I said
"Well until then we don't know ok. I'm going to go home now ill text you in the morning ok?" I nodded as she left my room I grabbed my beats that were on the bed and drifted off into the music as I did my problems.
------MAX POV--------During the time he saw Gracie flee crying.
I heard a racket coming from the other side of the store as I was paying. I walked over to see what the fuss was about and it was Owen talking to Gracie.
I overheard the conversation hiding in the clothing until I heard what Owen said that seemed to bring tears to her face.
This angered me! Gracie was actually turning into my friend and I don't like when people mess around with my friends especially When it's my Enemy doing the damage
" Hey Gracie, Whats going on over here?" I asked not being to suttle and she takes a quick glance at me and fleed leaving the store and the mall.
Without even thinking I pushed Owen against the Display Glass almost choking him.
"Hurt her again and I will end you !" My eyes flaring and his a bit frightened but he spoke up
"Oh, Im sorry did I say something wrong? Didn't know you had it in you to defend anyone but your two other friends? Youll end me? Awe no you'll end your father's career if you do something! I'm not afraid of you!" he smirked as I let him go I turned my back letting go of the bag for Gracie and punched him straight in the jaw. Leading him falling on the floor!
"You should be!"
