Kapitel 87: Chapter 87
I spent my day thinking of how good it felt to get what you want. I went into oblivion often and sometimes the teacher had to yell my name to bring me back.
It truly felt like a distraction but I loved this distraction, same way I loved how Xavier stares at me and how Devin kissed me.
I shook the thoughts off my head and grabbed my backpack, I needed to wait for James, he should be here soon. I turned my head to the door and Eva stood there. She didn't say a word to me and I smirked at how great it felt to put her in her place too.
James promised to pick me up after school so I hung around waiting for him. I stood by the pole in the hallway, pressing my phone. I was getting tired of standing in one spot so I shoved my phone into my pocket and went looking for Xavier. He was still mad but couldn't he at least stay where I could easily find him?
He arrived at school before I did and I had no idea where he was. I understand he was angry at how I accepted the money from James and I could see it in his eyes. I turned my head in the hallway trying to find him but I couldn't spot him.
"Where the hell is he?"
I turned around and saw Devin walking toward me. Immediately, my jaw squeezed and I turned my head away. He was avoiding me for no reason and now he wanted to talk to me like nothing happened?
Maybe acting up would be better, body all, he would stop acting like his body daily get possessed by evil Spirit
I hastened my footsteps but he kept following me. "Emily!"
"Leave me alone."
I kept walking till he reached me and grabbed my arms. I turned to him and my eyes met his.
"Emily I just wanted to apologize," he started. "I didn't come to school yesterday and I'm sorry."
I looked at how sincere his eyes looked and huffed.
"You've been avoiding me," I stated.
"Emily I was arrested."
My brows furrowed. Arrested? Why crime did he commit?
I swallowed the lump in my throat and asked, "Why? What happened?"
"Emily I can't hide who I am from you, you'll hate me someday and you may never forgive me."
My lips twitched at his sudden conclusion.
"I just wanted to say I'm sorry," he finally said and turned his back to leave.
I gripped his arms immediately and pulled him into a hug. He didn't see it coming and tried to gently push me away but I tiptoed and kissed his lips.
He looked at me and kissed me back, letting me slide my tongue in his.
He tasted like fresh mint and I couldn't get enough of him. He held my waist and positioned my neck so he can have easy access on my mouth. For a second, everything else went unnoticed. All I could think of and feel was his possessive lips on mine.
He stroked my hair and I closed my eyes, letting him fill my lips. His kiss was everything I yearned for. He had this effect on me and I wouldn't change it for anything.
When sudden realization hit me, I figured where I was. I was still in the hallway and I felt I was being stared at. Holy shit, Devin tasted better each moment. My heart raced faster when I imagined Xavier was standing opposite us and was staring at us.
I broke the kiss and turned, expecting to see Xavier but instead I saw James. I couldn't figure the expression he was wearing, it was blank. I couldn't read the expression on his face so k swallowed the lump that was in my throat.
I watched him angrily waddle away and I looked back at Devin. I had no idea what James was going to do. Was he going to report me to Mom? I quickly ran after him.
When I got to where the car was, I was panting hard. Xavier casually walked to the car like nothin happened and he lowered himself in. I stood still trying to catch my breathe before I entered the car too.
James was already in the car and he turned on the ignition the moment Xavier and I settled in the backseat of the car. He sped off and my chest heaved wondering what was going to happen.
All through the drive, James didn't say anything or try to start a conversation. It was unlike him and I feared that he was angry at what he saw.
"Uh, can you turn on the AC?" I asked, trying to make him talk to me but he didn't.
Instead he did as I requested and continued gazing at the windscreen.
Xavier was beside me but he didn't talk to me either. They were both ignoring me for different reasons and I had no idea what to say or do. I touched Xavier and he moved away immediately. He held his pocket like he was protecting something and my jaw squeezed.
"Stay the hell away from me," he blurted.
It was the same thing he said in the room and I couldn't place why he kept moving his jacket away from me. Was he hiding something or did he see me kiss Devin? Did James tell him?
I couldn't bear the way he was treating me and before I knew it, tears rolled down my cheeks. "I know why Xavier, I know why you're acting this way," I sobbed.
He put up his head and looked at me in awe. "You really know?"
I gave a nod and spontaneous tears flowed down my cheeks. I raised my hands to wipe the tears away and just sniffed gently.
He must have seen Devin and I kiss, I have no excuse.
"Yes, I know you're so mad at me for kissing him. I won't do it again, I won't kiss Devin again."
The look on his face changed the moment I said that.
"I'm heading home the moment I drip you guys," James interrupted.
I tilted to James and felt the need to ask him if I was still going to get the car or he changed his mind. I didn't know what to feel, I just wanted to get into bathroom and blow my eyes, possibly wash my face and sit in the bathtub for four hours.
"Get ready for the driving lessons, I'll be back to pick you up."
When I heard that, I get relieved knowing he didn't change his mind yet. I gave a slight nod and a quick smile followed.
I turned my head back to Xavier but he already turned away.
