Chapter 6
Chapter 6
The teacher was not here as yet,. so I was busy talking to Jasmine, when Carson and his friends
walked in. I didn’t even remember that they were in my class. was even surprised that they were in AP
biology. They didn’t seem like the type to get good grades. I kn w I was being judgemental, but I
couldn’t help it.
Thankfully, Carson didn’t seem to notice me as he ras caught up in a conversation with his friends. I
turned back in front of me as he and his friends sit behind us. The teacher came after that and started
her lesson.
During the middle of the lesson, I felt a light tap on my shoulder. When I turned around, I saw that it
was one of the twin. I looked closely at him for a second and noticed that it was Jayden. I raised my
eyebrow at him as he grinned at me. “What is it?” I asked.
“Is it true that you knocked out my pal here with a ball?” He asked, his finger pointing in the direction of
Carson, who was glaring at him.
“As I told you before, she didn’t knock me out.” Ca son cut in, but Jayden ignored him. He looked at me
awaiting my response.
I looked around at the teacher, who had his back tLrned to us writing something on the blackboard,
before facing Jayden again. “Leave me alone and don’t get me in trouble.” I hissed in a whisper.
“Ooh, she’s a feisty one.” Jordan said from his seat and all the boys laughed at his comment.
I rolled my eyes at their behaviour. “I don’t have time for your games.” I said and turned back around in
my seat. Jasmine raised her eyebrows at me, as if to ask ‘what was that about?’. I mouthed ‘I’ll tell you
about it later’ and she nodded and went back to her work. Ignoring the bickering and snickers behind
me, I went back to my work as well. They were used to disrupting classes and getting detention almost
everyday. As for me, I hope I don’t see another detention room for the rest of my school year.
At the end of the day, I was at my locker, when Kevin and Lucas walked up to me.
“Hey Kayla,” Kevin said. “Lucas and I are going over to my house to hang out. Want to join us? We can
order pizza.”
I gave them an apologetic smile. “I’m sorry guys, I an’t. I have a ton of homework.”
“Well, suit yourself. Just know that we were plann ng on having a horror movie marathon.” Lucas
added. He said this because he knew how much I love horror movies.

“I’m really sorry guys.” I said pouting. I wish I coul go, but my stepfather was coming home from work
early. I wanted to get home before he did. I didn’t want another confrontation; if you can call what
happened yesterday a confrontation.
“Nah, it’s okay. You gotta do what you gotta do.” Kdvin said, before adding “Hey where’s Jasmine?”
“She was here earlier, but she left early. She said she has a hot date.” I related what Jasmine told me. I Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
wasn’t surprised when Jasmine told me about her date. She was always going on dates with guys. She
was on a desperate hunt for ‘Mr. Right’, as she puts it.
“Another one?” Lucas asked, lifting his eyebrows knowingly.
“Yep. She said that this one was definitely the one.” I relayed.
“That’s what she said about the others.” Kevin put in.
I just shrugged. That’s exactly what I told her when she told me, but she said that this time she was
sure of it. I really hope so.
“Do you want us to walk you home?” Kevin asked.
I shake my head. “No, that won’t be necessary.” I said quickly. I didn’t want them to walk me home, in
case Allan showed up early and made a scene in front of them. I definitely didn’t want that.
“Okay, see you tomorrow.” Lucas said to me and he and Kevin wave goodbye and walk off.
I finished at my locker and step away. Not looking where I was going, I bump into someone. I almost
lost my footing, when the person grabbed my elbow to steady me. After I was balanced on my feet
again, I looked up to see that it was Carson.
He was standing very close to me, so I step back a little. His white shirt that he had on clung to his
chest. His body was muscly and defined. I could see that he worked out.
“I’m sorry” 1 said and began to walk around him, but he block my way.
“Get out of my way, please.” I said, trying to remain patient.
“This is the second time you have run into me. I think it’s becoming a habit, Kitten.” He stated. That
stupid smirk of his planted on his lips.
Kitten? What the hell?
“My name is Kayla and I would prefer you call me that.” I stated annoyed.
“Nah, I prefer Kitten. It fits you, because you are cute like a kitten.” lie said, obviously teasing me.
Trying to push down the blush that was threatening to appear, I pointed a finger at him and said. “Nice
try mister, but flattery won’t work on me.”
“Aww, that’s too bad.” He replied, faking hurt.
“Move Carson, I have to get home.” I said pushing at his shoulder, but he was build like a rock. He
laughed. “Why don’t you try and move me.”
“I’m not afraid of you.” I replied, lifting my chin (I(fiantly. Of course I was lying. With his muscles and
strength, he could do serious harm to me without el fort. Unconsciously, I looked up at his face. The
previous cuts and bruises that he had on his face were fading a ay. However, he had a red mark on his
jaw made by the ball when it hit him yesterday in gym class. It was till fresh. The red mark was fading
away, but I could still see it. “You better move before I make your next c eek red too.” I tried to hold
back a giggle.
