FALLING FOR MY TUTOR

Chapter 6

RACHEL'S POV

I leaned in to have his face in level with mine my eyes hovereing around his sleepy face and gently placed a kiss on his forehead.

As soon as I sank back to the sit I had been on for the last one hour or so,he let out a moan of protest.

My gaze swiftly shifting back to him, I watched as he squinted his eyes severally before having them fully open.

"You're up, "pacing my fingers across his chest careful enough not to touch his sore rib cage.

"What happened? "struggling to get up but a sharp pain immediately forces him to limply get back to his initial position.

"Don't,don't do that to yourself. You still need some rest, "positioning his pillow comfortably,"you passed out babe, "I answered.

"But before that, how are you feeling? Does it hurt that bad? "I was overly concerned.

"Not as much. It's manageable, "he smiled lightly letting out a deep sigh. The first-aid he had received had helped a great deal.

He made a second attempt to get up, my expression clearly warning him against it, but he managed.

"How did the game go? Who won? "his condition definitely the least of his worries.

"You won babe. 2-1,"he smiled widely forgetting his agony. Boys were funny beings. Football was everything to them,it was as if their lives revolved around it.

"Let's get out of here.We should be celebrating.And quit feeling sorry for me, "he suggested, jokingly pinching my right cheek.

We left the sickbay Scott's hand resting on my shoulder for support.Seeing him limp with every step we made got my furry slowly building up inside me. But I fought to maintain my cool. The only thing Scott needed now was peace.

"I'll head over to my boys, you can go get changed then we'll catch up later, "I glanced at him concern still written all over my face, "I can walk, see"he was quick to defend himself as he limped away, with much struggle.

I cussed under my breath the whole way till I reached the girls dressing room.

"...then he dived in.Her dramatic self running in the middle of the pitch. Always hungry for attention, "Angela was having a good laugh mocking the whole situation with her nerdy friends hardly noticing me behind her.

Steadily getting a hold of her ponytail, I pulled it down forcing her to rotate letting out a loud cry, "sto-o-op".

"And you think you're allowed to gossip me with your nerdy peasant friends?"I spat pushing her back as hard as I could sending her geeky glasses to the floor.I was puzzled at how strong I could get when furious.

"Racheal!Not now,"Bella suddenly got a hold of my hand just in time before I could slap her stupid ass face.

"I'm not done with you, "I spat once more reluctantly being driven away by Bella leaving Angela still in shock seemingly almost pissing herself.

Soon enough I was reunited with the girls talking about the after party making me forget how bad that day had turned out to be.

"Can somebody tell me why it took me that long to realise how much of a hotty Miles is? "Kylie asked with her cheek resting on her hand,letting her thoughts wander off for a second.

"And how were you to notice when all this while you were busy eyeing my Scott? "I shot.

Forcing out a laugh, "I already came to terms with the fact that you must always get the most popular guy. Take a chill pill girl, he's all yours. "

"That leaves me with Lewis then, "Bella quickly cut in and we all giggled in excitement knowing we were about to have the night of our lives.

We had all left home with our party dresses packed because going back home to change could possibly have our parents changing their minds on giving us permission.

The hall which was to host the party was already decorated.Theme colours used were blue and white; the colours on Razzers jerseys. The party was set to start from 6 p.m till dawn.

"Pass the mascara Kylie, you can't take forever with it, "rolling my eyes after asking for it twice now.

"Well someone seems to not be in the right mood,"Kylie mummered to herself.

"I heard that, "just to let her know I could clearly hear.

"What's up with you? What was that with Angela?"Bella turned to me her expression clearly demanding answers.

"I am the one and only Racheal Brown, no one talks about me that way,with or without my presence,"my face filled with rage yet again, "and by the way,what kind of friends are you? I bet you had the whole discussion before I walked in, but what did you do? Nothing! "

"Hey, hey, hey wait a minute missy, "Kylie immediately jumped in, "what's this discussion we're having anyway?Let's not allow this day to get any worse. "

"Okay so I'm just supposed to brush that off? The fact that you're turning out to not be the friends I thought you were? "raising one of my brows before narrowing my eyes on them.

"Kylie and I had our earphones on the whole time.We didn't even realise they were still back there until we heard you shout, "Bella tried to cool things off, it was getting quite intense.

Maybe I was being too hard on them, and myself too;this hit me after taking a second or two to reflect.

I had been lashing out at them and they didn't deserve this version of me. You know who did? The ones who fueled it.

I thought,bouncing back to the swivel chair I was sitted on smiling cunningly, Bella and Kylie distinctly baffled by the sudden shift of expression on my face.

"We really should get going,"Bella snapped when she got a glance of her wrist watch.

We were looking bomb. Our dresses barely covering half our thighs and that's how we liked it;ratchet.Our makeup was also on point,expensive perfumes summing up our whole look.

"Let's get them boys, "Kylie snapped in the air sassily throwing her hair back.

Giggling in excitement we grabbed our purses and headed to the hall.

Without uttering a word, our presence always announced itself. After letting our eyes wander for a moment, we spotted Scott and his friends and seductively advanced towards them,I being in the middle of course.

"How are you feeling now?"cupping Scotts cheek.

"I'm way much better. But I can't dance you know, "I gave a light frown rapidly changing it to a broad smile.Knowing I would soon fix the situation.

The girls had already thrown themselves to their respective matches as planned ealier and had already grabbed some drinks.

"I'll go get us something to sip on. I know your favourite,don't bother, "placing my finger on his lips to hush him.

I needed to get away from his sight for just a moment. I had caught a view of Adam laughing hard. The audacity!I hated him. It was because of him I was not on the dance floor with my man that night.

After skillfully snaking through the couples on the dance floor I was sure I had lost Scott's gaze on me.

"Thought I'd let it slide? Huh? "I reached him finding him totally unaware.

"If I can't have you,why should he, "he had the nerve to get arrogant while talking to me.

I found myself throwing several weak punches, but strong according to me, on his chest that I barely reached with his 6'2 towering my 5'4.

"You moron, "I called out making the 'punches' more intense when I noticed he was just standing still and staring down at me.

My waist was instantly grabbed and my legs suddenly left the ground. But it was not over yet, I continued kicking in the air.

"Racheal relax, "I heard Miles' voice behind me.

"No, look at my boyfriend,"pointing at Scott who was barely standing straight,"look at what you did to him, "I broke down. Wow, I didn't expect to get this emotional.
