Broken Promises

Chapter 3

Jake’s p.o.v.

“Let me guess, you’re late because of Janet”, I sat down with a smile next to my best friend and my face told it all. Yeah, the moment Janet had joined me in the shower I knew I wasn’t gonna be on time. It had already surprised me that I made this class anyway.

“Honestly man, I don’t know how you do it”

“Do what?” I sheepishly turned to him, completely ignoring the teacher as she threw us a look. Like I ever pay attention in classes, they should be happy I even came. They made me double this year so they should expect some resistance.

“Be the biggest manwhore from the school yet have all of them line up over and over again”, I chuckled as he said that but couldn’t argue with that. The three of us have had our fair share of ‘relationships’ with girls but I think it’s safe to say I’m by far the worst. What can I say? s*x helps when I’m pissed or stressed and it so happens to be that people piss me off a lot.

My eyes gaze over and I quickly threw a wink at Samantha as she gave me a flirtatious look that I know all too well. Hadn’t had her in a while though…

“Well, maybe I’m just that good”, I smirked at him as I said it and diverted my eyes but they stopped as they noticed a new person in the classroom. A girl…

I couldn’t see her face but she had gorgeous honey blond hair that flowed until the middle of her back. She was pretty thin, that much I could see even though most of her body was hidden by a big, plain white shirt paired with jeans. She was blessed with some big curves though as my eyes couldn’t seem to stray from her boobs. That was something even that shirt couldn’t hide.

Damn, I wonder how long it would take to get her in my bed.

“Who’s that?” I pointed to the girl and Kevin let out a huff, shaking his head “Oh no, you’re not doing that”

“And why is that?” Him telling me I shouldn’t was just driving me to go after her even more.

“She’s pretty but she’s too closed of man, I can see that from here. You weren’t here when she had to introduce herself, could barely look anyone in the eyes”, Noah, my other friend, turned around from his chair in front of me, indicating he had probably been listening.

“Is that a challenge my friend?” my eyes flickered to the girl again and Noah turned to Kevin “Wanna bet?”

I rolled my eyes as I switched looks between them but they completely ignored me “I’ll bet 50 that he won’t get her before New Year’s eve”

Kevin gave me a thoughtful look before answering “I put 50 on Thanksgiving”  

“You guys seriously think it’s gonna take me months?” I looked at them baffled and they both just nodded. Normally all it takes is a text and these two fucktards think it’s going to take months… The thoughts alone already hurts my pride.

“Fine, just wait and see”, I threw at them before turning to the front of the class. Not to look at the teacher, hell no, but to look at the pretty blond hair that sat a few rows in front of me. I don’t know what it was but it was weird as she seemed to drew me in without I had even ever seen her face.

I got shortly distracted as I felt my phone and casually read the message on the desk. She should try and take away my phone

-Hey baby, you wanna come over tonight? I miss U- Janet

I rolled my eyes as I read it. This is what I truly hated, when they became clingy after s*x. Some cuddling and kisses afterwards, I could deal with but I didn’t need this.

The sound of the bell drew a smirk to my lips as everyone started packing up their stuff and I quickly pushed my phone in my pocket. Getting up, I took long strides towards the blonde and went to stand in front of her desk, leaning forward as I placed my hands on it. Let’s see how closed of she’ll be to my charms…

Her eyes came up to meet mine and they really took my breath away, almost making me lose my composure. Almost…

She had beautiful plump lips and soft freckles on her rosy cheeks but her stunning brown eyes is what completely drew me in. They held so much emotion, I felt lost even looking at them. Yeah, she was a real beauty.

Her eyes only lingered softly on mine before she abruptly grabbed her stuff and almost bolted out of the classroom. My eyes confusedly followed her as she disappeared, my brows scrunching together. What the f**k just happened?

Sure, I made girls nervous but them running away definitely was a first.

The sound of laughing brought me out of my state of confusion and I turned around to see Kevin and Noah trying their best not to laugh as I glared at them. Oh, I’ll get her. It’s just a matter of time…

“I like a challenge, the girls here are getting a little too easy anyway”, I casually threw at them as we walked out of the room as well.

“She didn’t challenge you, mate”, Noah arms came around my shoulder and my eyes dared him to mock me. He knew how to piss me off…

“She ran, literally”, Kevin added and I hit them both on the shoulder as they just stupidly laughed at each other.

“I’ll get her, you’ll see”
