A Sweetheart Corruption
Chapter 8
Riley's POV:
"Can I just have a venti passion tea lemonade?" I smiled handing the lady at Starbucks a ten dollar bill. I picked Chris up this morning because his car is getting work done. Monday mornings suck, but Starbucks make it better. "Do you want anything?" I asked him looking over my shoulder.
"I'm ok, thanks." He smiled sweetly. I got my drink and we sat down in my car talking before we took off for school. "What's with the dark clothes?" He asked checking out my outfit."Is it because of Nick?" He asked. I didn't even realize I was wearing all black.
"No! I didn't even realize i was wearing all black. Don't over think everything so much, I'm ok." I nodded. "How's Nick?" I asked nervously. I haven't talked to him since our blow out Saturday night.
"He's alright, still pretty upset and sorry about everything that happened." He sighed. I nodded my head and pulled out of the parking lot without responding. Some things are just better left unsaid, and I think Cody agrees with that.
When we got to the school I noticed Harry's gang smoking cigarettes in my parking space. Does he really need to bother me 24/7? I pulled up to them and honked my horn, practically knocking Niall and Zayn off balance. "Move." I shouted smirking at them. They stood there until I pulled up so close I was touching their bums, and they jumped out of the way.
"Watch it Riley!" Liam screamed jumping to the side dropping his cigarette. I felt Cody let out a little laugh beside me, making me smile widely. We got out of the car just when the bell rang, and I rushed to my first class which was Anatomy. I absolutely hated this class, especially since we do dissections at least once a week. I walked inside and joined the rest of the class standing in front of the room.
"Alright class, I am going to give you your permanent seats for the rest of the year. No changes will be made, do you understand?" Mr. Mac asked. We all nodded our heads and he started assigning partners. "Dixie Jones and Niall Horan." He said pointing to the second to last table in the room. I looked at Niall who was so excited about this, and Dixie who looked like she was about to cry. "Lastly we have Riley Cutler and Harry Styles. Where's Harry?" He asked.
"How should I know?" I asked taking my seat. Like are you fucking kidding me?! All I want to do is escape this kid, and now he's my fucking lab partner for the rest of the year? We were interrupted by the door swinging open and Harry walking inside. Please, take your time. It's not like we have class or anything.
"Glad you could join us Harry." Mr. Mac said sarcastically. "You're partners with Miss. Cutler, she's a very nice girl." He said. I guess he knows Harry is new to RHS (Red High School.)
"Looks like you won't be getting rid of me that easily." He smirked sitting down and scooting his stool closer to me.
"That's close enough." I muttered.
"Don't act like you're not excited to work with me everyday for the rest of your senior year." He whispered opening up a notebook.
"Harry, I'm not interested." I sighed. Am I lying? No. That hookup was nothing but a hook up.
"Didn't seem like that the other night." He smirked. "Cute outfit." He added placing a hand on my thigh. I quivered at his touch and swatted it away.
"Stop it Harry!" I whisper shouted. I pulled out my notebook and started taking notes about lab safety and looked over at Harry who was distracted with the window. "Pay attention, this shit is important and you're going to be doing all the dissecting." I insisted.
"I don't do dead animals." He laughed in his british accent. "You're going to do the work if you want a good grade." He smirked.
"No way in hell. I hate this kind of shit. Besides, your the dark one. Aren't you into that kind of dead shit?" I asked laughing.
"Not when I have to open it up and touch it." He laughed. I ignored his comment and tried to focus on the notes rather than Harry poking me the whole class like an annoying piece of shit.
Last period came sooner than I thought it would, and it was finally time for history. I went to sit in my normal seat, but someone was already sitting there. "Maddie, that's my seat." I said quietly. She looked around the room and took a deep breath.
"Look Ri, I'm not trying to be a bitch but Nick asked me to sit here." She said with a little fear. Serves that bitch right to be afraid of me. Before I could respond, I saw Nick walk right past me and slide into his seat.
"Hey." I said with a small smile on my face. He looked up at me and nodded. He nodded. Cool. Shouldn't I be the one who's mad? He raped ME! I scanned the room for another seat and rolled my eyes when the only one left was next to Liam. I quickly slid into the desk not making a big deal of it.
"To what do I owe the pleasure of the most popular girl in school sitting next to me?!" He smirked pulling my chair up against him. "I heard about you and Harry." He whispered in my ear. I felt my blood run cold and slowly shifted away from him.
"Nothing even happened so... So I don't even know what you're talking about...stupid." I said nervously. What the hell was Harry telling people? I really need to be more careful with him... First falling asleep in the middle of the sidewalk with him and then driving him to my dance studio to hook up? No... Just no. Before he could respond, Maddie squealed from the back.
"Nick! You're such jerk!" She giggled throwing her head back. I beamed my eyes towards the back of the room and let out a deep breath. Why am I so damn jealous? He hurt me more than anyone else has in my whole life. I stood up from my chair and went over to Maddie.
"Maddie, I forgot to tell you that Eric from the hockey team wants you to call him back, he said something about a date on Wednesday night?" I smirked. Nick pulled away from her and her smile slowly faded.
"Oh yeah... Thanks Ri!" She laughed awkwardly. I nodded my head and sat back down in my seat.
"You're so bad." Liam growled in my ear. I pulled away and chuckled to myself. I'm not a bitch, I'm just smart about things like this. "Harry said you were like us. I didn't believe him, but I'm slowly starting to get where he's coming from." He joked.
"I'm nothing like you guys!" I shouted. I'm getting so tired of hearing that.
"Settle down babe." He smirked.
"I'm not your babe Liam. Leave me the fuck alone, alright?" I whispered with a raised voice.
"More and more like us minute." He joked. I slammed my hands down in temper and bit down on my lip.
"Shut.Up." I gritted through my teeth and kicked him under the table. I saw him flinch and grab his leg, making me let out a big smile. Sucks to suckkkkk. The rest of the class was boring as hell until the end of the day announcements came on.
"Harry Styles and Riley Cutler to the principal's office please." The secretary announced. What the fuck? I felt all eyes on me and and a couple ohhhhs from around the classroom. Now I'm blushing of embarrassment. Fantastic.
I rushed down the hallway to the principles office and took a seat in his waiting room. I noticed Harry walk in and rush to sit down beside me.
"What the hell did you do?" He asked sitting down. "I can't get kicked out of this school, so whatever you did I need to know right now." He commanded.
"Me?! I didn't do anything. What did you do?!" I asked confused. Before he could respond, the principal stepped into the waiting room and motioned for us to follow him. I gulped down hard and entered.
What the hell am I in for?
