When I Was The BadBoy's Girl

Chapter - 05

SKYLAR's Point Of View

When today J left me at my locker, I put my bag in it and grabbed the stuff of my first class. But then I remembered the note from yesterday. That girl! I wanted to talk to her. I know Jace's past should not be my concern. But if I am getting dragged in things then I need to listen to her story too.

I have seen her multiple times at the library doing work for extra-curricular. So I decided to talk to her there. But when I reached the library, someone else was sitting in her place.

"Hey! Where is the girl who..."

I couldn't complete my sentence before she took her name.

"Clara? She left the school!"

She said while checking the register. I was confused yet at the same time shocked.

"She.. she was here yesterday... And today.."

I shockingly asked but it didn't effect her.

"People transfer all the time girl. Nothing new happened."

She sarcastically said.

I walked out of the library slowly to my class contemplating what happened this suddenly which made her transfer the school.

"Skylar"

Kylie came from behind me and started blabbering about yesterday mini party they had at Jace.

"I wanted to come but some guest arrived at the end moment"

I lied straight through my teeth when she asked me why I did not came.

"No problem babe but next time... We won't listen to any excuse"

She said and laughed. Sometimes I don't understand her laughing after every sentence.

I gave her a perfect fake smile thinking about the next time. I don't like going out regularly. once a week is enough for me.

After few minutes we reached our classes. Kylie's class was just behind mine. So we often met to talk about things. Or you can say her bragging about Kyle and the fashions.

In the third period I decided to ask J about the girl but he had no idea what I was talking about. Obviously the hangover from last night must have slowed down his last of brain cells. So after sending him the text I concentrated on my study.

During English class, I dragged J to the library. Our teacher was busy so we took permission from her for the library. We went to the far corner of the library and sat on the floor. At first he threw tantrums for being here but then readily agreed when I gave in to his condition of spending time after the school.

"Jace..."

I called him when he didn't started talking. He just sat there and started scrolling his social media account. Like seriously dude?

"Mhmm?"

See? this is how he pays attention when I am serious. Out of annoyance I snatched his cell phone and pocketed in my back pocket.

"What the hell? Give it back to me!"

Jace scolded me but I just rolled my eyes and then gave him a pointed look.

"We. Are. Here. For. Something."

I said as if he was some retarded sloth. He looked like any given he would kill me but accepted his defeat with huff and folded his hands over his chest.

"Then talk and finish it because I don't want to waste my time on some random s**t"

J gritted out.

"The girl who wrote those messages transferred her school overnight."

I stated seriously but by the look of Jace he was completed annoyed to even talk.

"So?? what am I supposed to do with that doll?"

Jace said with raised eyebrows.

"Did you do something to her? Did you threatened her?"

He looked at me when I asked him.

"No I didn't"

"And is this how much you trust me Skylar? I agree I have done wrong things but I was just a kid back then high on my hormone. "

"You can't blame or judge me from my past"

Jace exploded suddenly and got up from floor. He grabbed his bag and pulled his cell phone from my back pocket and left.

Now I felt bad for asking that question. I am such an i***t for not trusting him. Kylie told me they all left the school together and were together till this morning.

Jace was right in his place. I should have trusted him and not judged him for his past mistakes. Everyone has a past but that doesn't mean they can't be good in the future. I should have not digged it only to ruin the happiness.

I closed my eyes and palmed my forehead regretfully. Jace was the first one to became my friend in this school and now he's angry at me.

I stayed there sitting on the floor, knees pressed the my chest and face hidden by my palms. What have you done Sky. This is not the way to treat someone.

I felt a pat on my shoulder. When I looked up, It was Sam standing beside me. He came and sat in front of me and asked what happened. I didn't wanted to lie but don't want to talk about the message also, so I just settled on main matter.

"Jace and I had a fight."

He must have seen my sorrow eyes that he decided to pulled my beside him and snaked his arm on my shoulder.

"Jace looks for fight sweetheart so don't worry he will come back. We have a pact here. We don't stay angry for long."

Sam said to cheer me up. And I literally felt myself at ease.

He told me that Jace was never the one to hold grudges or stay angery at someone for long. Basically after becoming friends with Jace, they made this pact to not stay angry, stand for each other no matter what happens and do anything no matter whatever it takes.

I smiled that they had eachother for so long time. I never had a group or friend like this before where friendship means beyond your blood relation.

"Lets get you out of here now."

Sam pulled me through my arm and once again placed his arm on my shoulder.

When we were in the corridor, most of the girls looking at us like we are a thing or something. I blushed hard when Sam said let them think we are a thing.

Suddenly I was self conscious because Sam is the Quarter back of the football team and one of the most handsome guy in school. Did I mention he was single?

"You guys look cute together. Why don't you guys just become a thing?"

Carter's girlfriend right. I forgot her name but she said this which made me blush even more. I don't understand what made her ship us.

"Shut your hole up Lexi!"

Sam muttered and made her shut up. She rolled her eyes and stick out her tongue at him.

Sam, Lexi and I went to the cafeteria together. Others were already present at our table. OUR TABLE! Woah that so easily came out of my mouth... But its true they all welcomed me with open arms and now I am one of them.

I took my regular seat beside J , and I can still smell the anger inside him. I need to apologise to him but I don't want to make a scene either.

It was when I finished eating my noodles, I grabbed the spare tomato ketchup pouch and wrote SORRY and made a sad emoticon ":( like this on the empty plate and put it in front of him.

He was sitting with hands folded over his chest and comfortably leaning on the chair behind him. To look clearly he sat straight and saw what I wrote on the plate.

Jace grabbed the fork from the plate and ruined my sorry by scratching the fork on it. Well I didn't expect this to happen. Now I am getting annoyed by him. Even I don't throw tantrums like this.

Alright, since he's not interested to talk then I better take me leave from here. I stood up on my feet and was about to walk out of there when Lexi stopped me.

"Hey where are you going?"

I so wanted to roll my eyes. I only know her from few weeks but I know she's a b***h in this group who doesn't keep her nose down.

"I have some errands to run"

I lied and without waiting for a response I walked off.

I went to the bleachers and put earphones on then started listening to music on shuffle mode. Since my mood was already down I decided to listened to some more bore music to make it worse.

.

When the school finished I grabbed my stuff from the locker and was going to the school doors when someone patted on my shoulder. I turned to look who it was but there was nobody. But when I turned to walk again Jace was standing there.

"Already forgot what you promised?"

He asked in a playful mood. Seriously? This guy was upset the whole time and didn't talked to me, now he wants to spend time together. Just wow.

"Nope"

I said popping the "P" up.

Jace dragged me through my hand where his car was parked. After putting on his glares, he opened the door for me and then himself settled on the seat. We drove towards the bridge side and parked the car.

"Before you ask why are we here? The answer is I love to spend time here in peace."

He told me. We sat on the car bonnet and relish the scenery ahead us. The river.

The cold breeze was playing with my hair and I felt like the wind carrying the stress away from my body. I laid my head on J's shoulder and listened to the soft music playing in the car.

"how did you find this spot?"

I asked finally breaking the silence.

"It was a summer evening when I had a fight my folks. I just left the house without thinking. I had no particular place in my mind that mind. I just wanted clear my head. So roaming randomly around I reached here and sit on there"

Jace said making circles on the back of my palm unknowingly. He pointed at the fallen pole where he sat.

"This is the first place where I smoked and drank alcohol for the first time. When I got my own car, I drove it to here and slept all night here"

I looked at his face in shock but with enthusiasm he was saying all this I knew how much this place means to him.

"And your parents didn't said anything?"

Okay I asked but its not my fault that I am a curious girl.

"No... actually they weren't here. We only meet our parents one time quarterly."

When he said that I felt a pang in my heart. Even though Jace didn't showed any emotions saying that but I still got a feeling that he was not happy.

I decided to tell him about my parents. I told him when I was 11, I forced mumma to take me to the papa's work place. But his secretary said he was on site. So we decided to surprise papa by going there. And we did gave him a surprise. I was playing under a constructive building and suddenly the building started to collapse.

My mom and dad ran towards me to save me. But dad's feet got stuck in a hole, so mom told me to run to a safe place till she helps dad. When I reached to a safe place I turned around to see if they are coming or not but that was the last time I saw my parents and then the whole constructive building collapsed and everything engulfed in a dirt smoke.

When I finished telling everything, Jace wiped the tears from under my eyes which I didn't know was flowing. We were so closed to each other that I could feel his breath fanning my lips. I could smell the minty breathe of his.

Jace looked at my lips before crashing his on mine. At first I was so shocked that I didn't even responded to him then he also stopped kissing me and we both looked into eachother eyes. That was when I leaned and started the kiss again.
