Life Ain't fair

Chapter 16

[Edited]

Sophia's POV

I walked out of the class and into my next class. I did not go to my locker this time as I already had my books. I had chemistry with Amelia. I expected to see an empty classroom but I was met with a girl with blonde hair sitting and waiting.

I walked over to my seat but she Decided to speak.

"Hey"

"Hey" I said.

"I am Layla. I heard that you were the new student in school starting up all drama" she smirked at me.

She did not seem rude. She was just in the playful mode.

"I guess. It's actually Victoria who is starting all this drama not me" I say lifting my hands up in surrender.

She laughs and I join in on it.

"Are you new??" I ask.

"No she was just missing for a few weeks enjoying her life in Miami" says someone from the doorway. We both turn around to see Amelia looking at Layla with a serious look.

"Amelia" Layla said. " I missed you".

"Yes so much that you called me everyday and you even told me that you were back from Miami and that you were coming to school today" she replied sarcastically rolling her eyes.

"Yeah about that I am sorry'. I did not have proper reception and I wanted to give you a surprise" Layla grinned.

Amelia gave up and smiled.

"So it seems like you both have met" Amelia says looking at me and Layla.

"Yes" we both replied together.

Before we could speak again the bell rang and the teacher entered the class and students started piling in. We decided to stay quiet and enjoyed the annoying class of chemistry. To be honest the only classes I truly enjoyed were literature and home economics now. He wasn't a bad teacher. I just didn't enjoy it sometimes. Yeah because Alex isn't here. What where did that thought come from. I decided to ignore it.

History and geography are s**t. Don't even get me started on calculus. God that is the most awful class with that hag. I could pass that class even without him. He definitely is nothing short of annoying.

After the class ended I invited Layla to come and sit with us at lunch she was a reluctant at first saying that she hated sitting the cafeteria. Well that's not debatable. It actually is annoying in there with all those annoying whispers. And stupid a*s rumours.

At lunch me and Amelia walked over to the cafeteria. As we entered all eyes turned towards us. As usual the rumours began. I think we were called the girls that got lucky and have hot guys around them now.

That was actually annoying. Those whispers were going to give me a headache someday. We walked in and sat in our original table. Layla joined us soon but Alex and Austin hadn't come yet. As if on cue the entire cafeteria went silent and I turned around to see Alex and Austin entering. Alex's eyes were hard and searching for something rather someone. As he turned his brown eyes met mine and his lips turned upwards into a grin.

This made blood rush to my cheeks as I slowly turned around. To avoid his gaze. They came over, Alex sat beside me while Austin was sitting across from me.

"Well what have you both been doing" I ask

"Avoiding the she devil" Austin scoffs.

"I don't think she is avoidable. She will show up sooner or later. I just plan on not dying by a cat fight" he says with a shudder.

"Her nails are huge. When I say huge really huge" Alex whispers in my ear dramatically.

I roll my eyes at him and shove him off me 

"Can't handle a girl"

"Who said she was a girl she is not human she is a devil" Austin states.

"I missed the Victoria bitching days" Layla buts in.

We all laugh at that and complete our lunch and the bell rings. And we head to our lockers.

__________________________________________________________________________________________

Guess which class I had now. Yes I have gym. I just ate and now I am sure that she will make us run.

I went into the girls locker room to change into shorts and a jersey. And look who I found in the locker room surprise surprise. It was Layla and Victoria... And fake brea*ts. I still have no idea what her name is. And I don't care at all.

Me and Layla walked towards the field to see that half the girls were already there and the teacher told us to run as warm ups. We had to run around 10 rounds in our huge ground. I am normally lazy but when I need to run I can . God I am so freaking tired. She gave us a few minutes to cool off. Me and Layla walked to the side and drank some water. From the corner of my eye I could see Victoria walking towards us. I tried to avoid her all this while. But I think that it was inevitable for her to come.

I saw that her minions were coming along with her. She was such a coward she couldn't even come alone.

She came and stood in front of me and began speaking

"Listen here b***h. I don't know whatever you have done to Alex but you need to stay away from him. He is mine. You understand?. You are just a worthless piece of s**t. Just get lost from here. You can go and die no one will care" I couldn't do it anymore and cut her off . She was speaking bullshit.

" Listen here sweetie Alex isn't a thing or an object to own you understand. He is my friend and I wouldn't listen to you. And if I really wanted to die I would seriously climb up to your ego and jump to your IQ level. So bye bye. Go home and cry to daddy okay?" I turn around and see that a crowd was formed around us and some people were even filming this scene.

"You b***h" she came at me but I was quick to dodge it and she rushed past me. Before she could do anything the teacher came and dispersed us

I was glad that the teacher interupted us. I thought that Alex and Austin were joking but hell her nails were actually really huge and lethal. I snickered at that and walked towards Layla

"Missed one there huh?" She raised her eyebrows. But I could see that her lips wanted to curl into a smile.

"Yeah that was close" we looked at each other and burst out laughing. Some girls were giving us weird looks but we didn't care and we went back to where the teacher was.

"Okay students now we are going to play dodge ball. I am going to separate you into two teams of 8 people each . One will stay on the inside and dodge the ball. And the other team stays outside the circle. Aiming at the inner team. And the ball needs to hit them below the knees.

Me and Layla were kept in the same team but Victoria and fake brea*ts  were in the other. Thank god for that. Well they even complained for a while after the teacher gave the rules that their make up would be destroyed or that their precious nails would break. God they are such drama queens. It's really annoying.

For the first round my team was on the inside. Victoria and fake brea*ts stood opposite to each other on two ends of the circle. We began to play. ten minutes and a lot of jumping later only me Layla and another girl were left on our team.

I stood right in front of Victoria and in between her and fake brea*ts. Ready to jump or defend myself. I suddenly saw a smirk on Victoria's face. Wait what that's not supposed to be there we are actually winning.. I suddenly realised that she planned something and I realised what it was when I saw the ball in her hands aimed not at my legs but at my face I ducked and thank god I did it right on time and the ball skid past me and hit fake brea*ts right on her face. And she fell, knocked out. Geez someone's pissed. Yeah well Victoria always is. I rolled my eyes at her behaviour and walked toward Layla as the class got over.

We turned around to see Victoria and fake brea*ts getting into detention while taking her to the nurse. Turns out she wasn't fully knocked out. She just was lightheaded. I soon went to the lockers and showered and went out as that was my last class for today. I had no one to drop me home as they have another period to go. I decided to walk home. As I was putting on my earphones I heard someone whisper my name in my left ear. I turned around to see no one but as soon as I turned forward. I almost got a heart attack and placed my hand on my heart.

"Did I scare you" asked Mr jerkface. Standing right in front of me our faces only a few inches apart

"Asshole. What is wrong with you. You almost killed me there. If I died my blood would have been on your hands remember" I said taking a step back as he was too close to my comfort. Yes that's a lot of hotness near you.

"Always the dramatic one" he rolled his eyes.

I slapped his shoulder playfully. "Where are you going now" he asked.

"Home. My classes are over and I have no one to drop me home so I decided to walk" I replied.

"Well I can drop you off" Alex offered.

"Do I really have to spend another half hour with you willingly at that". I asked with a dramatic sigh.

"Here we go again" he rolled his eyes and I followed him.

I stopped dead in my tracks as I saw the vehicle in front of me. He turned around to look at me after I stopped. He raised his eyebrows asking as if why I stopped. I turned to the vehicle in front of me. Standing in front of me was a Royal Enfield.

That's like one of the coolest bikes ever. I actually don't have much interest on cars and bikes but this one is a beauty.

Alex groans beside me and says.

" Don't say me that you are one of the girls who are scared to get on a bike "

"Hell no" I exclaimed.

"It's f*****g awesome. I am not hesitating for a ride in this. God I am seriously excited now come on" I looked at him.

But he was already looking at me.

"What" I asked

"The last thing I expected from you is fangirling over this bike" he chuckled and got on.

He gave me an helmet and I strapped it on and he asked me if I was ready.

"Hell yeah" I replied enthusiastically.

I wrapped my arms around his torso as I did not was to die. He sped down the road the wind making contact with my body. It felt really nice and refreshing. It felt nice to be with him like this. It felt different. stop it. Don't think like that.

I saw that he went past my house. Before I could ask him what he was doing we were at the dinner. He had bought us out Although I just had lunch I was actually hungry. What can I say a girl's gotta eat.

He stopped the bike and we got down. First I wanted to give him 'the' look. You know the annoyed one but I was fine with it later on and did not mind it that much because I was hungry.

I began to walk inside leaving him outside. He came running behind me. Yelling my name asking why I was walking so fast. I actually had no clue why I was doing that. I was just trying to act like I was pissed. It's actually really fun to see their reaction after that. Catching up to me he held my wrist and turned me around.

"Sophia" he breathed. His face was so very close to mine there was barely an inch gap in between. god. I could feel his breath on mine. His brown orbs looking directly into mine. Butterfly's erupt in my stomach with his touch. God what is happening to me. His beautiful face only inches away from mine tempting me to keep staring . He suddenly looked down on my lips and for a second I began to imagine how it would feel if those lips were on mine. Before we did anything the waiter interupted us.

"Hello welcome to pops diner. I am Kate and I will be your waitress today" .

We both looked away together and towards the waitress and followed him to the booth.

God what happened. Was he really going to kiss me if the waitress hadn't interupted us. Would I have actually allowed it. Yes I accept that he has fully kissable lips and eyes so mesmerizing that you can be lost in them. He can be described in one single f*****g word 'beautiful'. But he is one huge a*s player.

God what am I thinking. Am I even seriously ready for another relationship. Tears almost fell from my eyes as the memories resurfaced. The ones that I tried to bury deep down and never visit again.

I tried to forget that and concentrated on the present with Alex as my friend. Im not going to allow one moment. One stupid moment which I am sure nothing meant to him by the way he was flirting with the waitress. So it shouldn't mean anything to me either.

I just did not want anything to be weird between us so I just decided to leave it at that. And tried to begin conversation again. And the first step of that was seperating the waitress from Alex. One more step and she will be on his lap now. God she has no shame. I know that I shouldn't be affected but I am and I can't help it and I f*****g hate it.

I clear my throat and make them look at me.

"I don't know about you but I am planning on eating actual food today" I smirked at Alex.

Kate gave me an angry. Actually a very very angry and hard glare. And walked away.

"Bitchiness much" I commented.

Alex started laughing at that. I have no clue whats making him double over in laughter so much .

I gave him a hard glare with an raised eyebrow and asked "what".

He just shrugged his shoulders and said.

" I didn't peg you for the jealous type".

Seriously he thinks I'm jealous. She was just a b***h.

"You wish I was James. I was Just hungry and she was stopping me from food that's it" I rolled my eyes.

"Whatever you say" he said in a sing song voice.

"Shut up asshole and order up. I'm hungry" I said patting my stomach.

He laughed and called for another waiter. And ordered food for both of us and turned towards me.

"Okay so what are we doing here again" I ask.

"Well I am pretty sure we are here to eat but maybe that brain of yours is not able to grasp that" he smirks.

I roll my eyes.

"Asshole. I know that we're are here to eat but why. All of a sudden."

" Hey we are celebrating as you b***h slapped Bianka indirectly." He laughs.

"Huh?" I asked confused.

"That girl at the gym" he said refering to fake brea*ts.

"Ohh so that's her name" I muse.

"Yeah?" He asks more like a question

"Well I always did refer to her as fake brea*ts in my head" I said.

Which made him laugh so loud. He was holding his stomach and laughing. Unable to control his laugh a few tears fall from laughter. God even his laugh was beautiful. It sounded so nice unlike my horse laugh. Wanting to keep that smile on his face I continued.

"Well what can I say it does look like she had done a plastic surgery. And she's always flaunting it in from of everybody. I have no clue how Austin does her" I roll my eyes.

After a few minutes he settles down as his laughter dies down. At the same time our order comes. And we began to eat. We laughed joked and had fun that was one of the most fun I have ever had with a friend. It was easier to talk to Alex compared to Austin and Amelia. 

It reminds me of Cassie. How easy it was for me to confide in her. But yet my deepest and darkest secrets are hidden from her. But either way I somehow managed to enjoy the day and went home with a smile.

A huge a*s one.
