YOU HAD YOUR CHANCE (BxB) (COMPLETE)

Out

~LENNY~

I ignore the slight pain in my chest when I saw Ben with Nessa. Why does it even hurt? I ask myself, but come up with no reason so I pin it to a malfunction of my heart at that instance.

Milly looks at me with her jaws hanging low, whiles Ronny only smirks with a knowing look.

"What?" I ask Milly feigning innocence, while still in Leo's arms. We got to school early so we have some time before class begins. And I intent to spend it will Leo.

"Don't ask me 'what?' With that ugly face." She says clearly frustrated, her face flushed pink, her hand fisted by her side. I can just picture her with steam coming out of her ears.

"What is she all worked up over?" Leo ask, whispering the question in my ears, his arm around me as he leans on his car with my back to his front.

"I did not tell her about us." I explain in a whisper, "we just started going out. They are even lucky they found out today." I continue, my eyes never leaving the flushed Milly. I intentionally spoke so low that even if you are a shifter it will be hard for you to hear me if you're not near me.

"What the f**k are you talking about?" She asks clearly angry.

"Just let it go for now, I'm sure he'll tell us himself." Ronny assures his twin. His eyes calm and calculating. Ronny is like that, frightfully calculating. Nothing goes unnoticed by him. It is no wonder he wasn't surprised by this. He did see Leo kiss me at the club afterall.

"I'm not telling you anything." I argue, knowing perfectly well that I will spill the beans soon enough. I can keep a secret, but sometimes some things just suffocate me that I have to tell someone. I'm sure it won't take long for me to come begging them to listen to me rant.

"Yh. You're right. Why am I even killing myself over this?" Milly asks to no one in particular. Her lips pulling up from a frown into a smirk.

"Let's get going. We don't have much time till class starts." Leo addresses all three of us, his voice vibrating through my back making me bite my lips to hold back a moan. I see Ronny looking at me meaningfully, as if he can see through my attempt at hidding my desire. I'm only glad I'm not spotting a boner right now.

"Let's go then." I say pulling an amused Leo with me into the school with Ronny, Milly and Lyca behind us. I almost forgot about Lyca, she hasn't said a word, I guess she's as shocked as everyone else.

Leo escorts me to my locker after the guys get to class. I have a class with Leo. I spot Ben and Nessa furiously kissing in front of my locker. The sight makes me flinch and my heart squeeze. He looks as if he's trying to swallow her whole. What irks me is that he is kissing her with his eyes on me.

"You can come back for your books later. Let's get to class." Leo says, when I'm glued to my feet and can't move. I can hear the clear anger and irritation in his voice. I can feel it in how stiff his posture is, and I don't like it.

"Let's go." I say and pull him with me to class. Literature. We get stares from everyone in class once we step inside. But we ignore them and take our seats by the window. The teacher is not yet in.

I take Leo's hand in mine when he's still stiff. His eyes are not meeting mine as his jaws tick with how hard he is grinding his teeth together. He might even hurt himself if he keeps that up. But I can't deny how hot he looks when he's irritated.

"Relax." I whisper with my elbow on my desk and my chin in my palm as I look at him. A smile tugging at the Conners of my lips. But he doesn't return it. He just frowns.

"Can I ask you something?" He asks, his tone suddenly turns serious making my brows creese in a frown. Why so serious suddenly?

"Ok. Go ahead." I urge him.

"Why is Ben like that? I know when someone acts out of jealousy. He thinks I have taken something that does not belong to me. I... is he your mate?" He asks me. His face awfully close to mine, his scent making me dizzy. But it's the fear and uncertainty and the pleading look in his eye that tugs at my heart heart strings.

"Why would you think that?" I ask instead. If there's one thing I am certain of, it is that Ben is not my mate. Even if he were I wouldn't want him. He's too much of an asshole. And I already like Leo. It hasn't been long but I know for certain that I see him with me in every step I take in my life.

"He acts like a jealous boyfriend. He looks at you as if you are his, and me as if I have no right to even be in close proximity with you." He explains. His hand painfully holding mine as if he doesn't want to let go. I don't want him to let go either.

"He is not mine." I say with all honesty and watch him sigh in relief. Oh how much I want to tell him that he's mine. But I don't. I swallow the urge to confess my undieing love to him, knowing how impromptu and improper that will be.

He leans in to me, with his forehead against mine. Then whispers, " Goddess how I wish it does not take long for you to see." His words make me frown not knowing what he is getting at.

"See what?" I ask. But he only shakes his head at me. His eyes hopeful and determined. For what? I do not know. His lips softly lands on mine, a low moan leaves my throat.

"Cut it out guys. You can continue after class." The teachers words makes me blush and pull apart as the rest of the class, including Leo chuckle.
