Chapter 15: Chapter Fifteen

I looked at Aaron who wore a blank expression on his face and shrugged in a careless way as if he didn't care if Brittany was glaring at me or not. "Your girlfriend is glaring at me,” I stated, and he shrugged. "Your bitchy girlfriend is glaring at me!” I told him raising my voice and that son of a bitch smirk.

"So what?” he asked while chuckling.

"Get out of the car!” I said and sighed at his stupidity. I'll have to face her sooner or later. He got out and I did the same. I locked the car and just as I turned to look at Brittany, I smiled when I saw Grace walking towards me with Chase following behind. She engulfed me in a hug and pulled away. "Your father is back home,” I told her, and she smiled.

"Yeah, mom told me this morning,” she told me. Just as we reached the main door, I saw Brittany blocking me way. I took a deep breath and narrowed my eyes at her. Aaron was soon behind me.

"You're such a bitch!” she sneered while I glared.

"You're being serious?” I asked while glaring. "Don't fucking call me a bitch when I'm not one,” I said and pushed her out of my way.

"You slept with Aaron!” One of her friends sneered at me. Aaron glared this time. I took a step menacingly towards her.

"She didn't! Don't start with your rumors,” Aaron said and stepped between Brittany and me. I glared at Brittany who was doing the same.

"Aww! You were spreading rumors on me?” I started with a sweet sarcastic voice and evil smile that made Aaron turned his attention to me. "Good thing to know that you can spread other things than your legs!” I ended and everyone laughed. Aaron grinned and Brittany glare harder.

"Shut up!” she yelled and tried to grab me, but Aaron pushed her off.

"Don't start!” Aaron roared and she backed off instantly.

"Don't forget that you're the one who need me!” she sneered to Aaron and walked away. I stared at her and tried to replay her words in my head. Aaron ran his hand in hair in frustration. Why does Aaron need her?

"Let's go to class,” Grace said taking my hand and pulling me to class. I wasn't in mood to talk. Aaron didn't come to class and Chase told us that he needed some time.

I had a free period, so I decided to go to the library to do some research for homework. Grace and Chase were in their classes. Unfortunately, our schedules didn't match. I saw Kylie near my locker and a smile quickly spread on my face.

"Kylie,” I greeted happily.

"John and I are officially dating,” she gushed happily, and I jumped with joy.

"You'd make cute babies!” I yelled and she laughed.

"Who would make cute babies?” I heard someone ask from behind. John smirked and kissed Kylie on her cheeks.

"You two!” I said and clapped my hands.

"Can you calm down?” John asked in amusement, and I shook my head.

"Sorry, I can’t,” I said with a shrug and chuckled.

"What happened with Nick?” Kylie asked and I groaned

"Went perfectly well,” I said sarcastically.

"What happened?” John asked.

"He was being a jerk,” I said.

"How?” Kylie asked.

"He called Aaron an asshole,” I said and smacked my forehead knowing how stupid it sounded.

"So what?” Kylie asked.

"I'm the only one who has the right to call him an asshole,” I said, and John chuckled.

"You like him?” Kylie inquired and I shook my head. Yeah, I do.

"No, I don't,” I said. "I simply hate when people insult my friends.”

"If you say so,” John said playfully, and I glared at him.

"Where are you going?” Kylie asked me, and I noticed John sliding his hand around her waist.

"To the library,” I said.

"I need to go to,” Kylie said.

"Well, girls, I have football practice,” John said and pecked her on her lips. "See you later!” he said and walked away.

"Let's go,” Kylie said and hooked her arm with mine, making our way to the library.

We were talking and joking around and just when we were about to turned on the corridor, we heard a preppy voice talking angrily. "If you do that again, wave goodbye to the treatment that she's getting!” I peeked to see Brittany yelling at…Aaron. I hid next to a locker and Kylie did the same.

"But you can't accuse Kim of something she didn't do!” Aaron fumed and punched a locker making Brittany flinched.

"I can do whatever I want!” she yelled. "And you have no other choice than to accept.” She turned on her heels. What the freaking hell? Aaron punched the locker several times and kicked it.

"Fuck!” he cursed and looked to where Brittany went. I needed to talk to him even if he looked damn scary. I looked at Kylie and motioned her to go.

"I need to talk to him,” I whispered, and she nodded giving me a smile and walked away. I stepped away from the locker and walked to Aaron. His back was facing me, and I could see him breathing heavily. I tapped him on the shoulder.

"What?” he asked angrily, and I flinched. I took a few steps backwards and waited for him to turn and once he did, his face softened.

"Don't you think it’s time for you to tell me?” I asked and he took a deep breath.

"How much did you hear?” he asked, and I decided to lie.

"About what? I just saw you beating the locker to death,” I said, and he sighed in relief.

"What do you want me tell you?” he asked.

"Why do you need Brittany?” I asked and crossed my arms.

"I'm not in a fucking good mood,” he said and walked away. I stared at his retreating figure and sighed. I needed to know! Who would know more about him?

Chase!
