Loving Crime

Pg. 3

The next day I woke up, the first thing I did was check my phone. Still no reply from him. I really hope he didn't get into anything last night. I would try calling him but that would make me look too desperate.

I did my normal routine again. I took a shower even if I did last night, I washed my face, brushed my teeth, brushed my hair, picked out an outfit to wear today 

and last but not least my backpack. "Bye mom!" I shouted as I headed out to the bus stop. Today felt odd. Kun's car didn't pull up.

I hope nothing bad happened.

The bus suddenly pulled around the corner, stopping in front of me. I looked around one last time, making sure that Kun wasn't about to pull up at the last minute, but sadly he didn't. 

The moment I arrived to school, all eyes were on me, making me anxious as to why...

"That's her. She actually gets to hang out with them." I heard.

"He lets her talk to him." I heard. 

"Did you see her getting out of their car the other day?"

"Dude I heard that he really likes her."

"Really?" 

"Yea!"

"Hm. What does she have that I don't."

"Looks. The fuck."

"Oh yea. I need some serious surgery."

Why was everyone acting so strange? Instead of heading to my locker, I headed straight to detention. The moment I walked in, I saw Kun and Michael. 

"Oh hey Rachel." Kun said. 

"Sup girl." Michael said giving me fist pump. 

"Hey." I said, looking at the empty desk that sat in front of me. "Umm, where's xiaojun?" I asked.

"He got expelled." Kun said. 

"What? Wha-how?! Did Derek get expelled?" I asked. 

Michael and kun shrugged. "We don't even know where Derek is." Michael said as he shrugged. 

"What do you mean?" I asked. 

"They said he disappeared, thanks to you standing up to him but-" Kun said as he stopped. 

"But what?" I asked. 

"Good morning my beautiful detention class!" The detention teacher said as she walked in with the widest grin on her face. 

Michael chuckled. "Somebody got laid last night." Michael mumbled. 

She gave him a shocked look, throwing her bag of chips at him. "No! Actually, I just found out great news. Thank you!" She corrected.

"Aaaand you got laid." He laughed. 

She threw a bag of twizzlers at him but completely missed and ended up hitting Kun. 

"Ouch!" Kun said, holding his head. 

Michael laughed. 

"I'm sorry!" She said, covering her mouth. 

"Damn lady, how many snacks do you got back there?" Michael asked, ducking his head. 

"He's sitting in front of me how'd you miss him?!" Kun asked. 

"She just doesn't like you chief." Michael continued. 

"That's not true!" She said. 

While they were in the midst of that, I pulled my phone out to check if Xiaojun texted me back, but yet again, nothing...

Where could he have possibly gone last night? And why was Derek so suddenly missing...? 

After school I headed to my bus, not bothering to wait for Kun or Michael, my mind was focused on other things and that was-

"Hey stranger." I heard, making me turn around.

My eyes grew wide. "Xiaojun? Hey." I said, hugging him like I never wanted to let go. I felt tears wanting to fall from my eyes from missing him so much. 

"I thought you got expelled." I whispered, looking around for any signs of cops or teachers. 

"I did." He simply spoke.

"Then why are you here??" I asked.

"For you." He said holding his hand out. 

I smiled, grabbing his hand as he started walking me towards a car I wasn't quite familiar with. "Umm who-"

"Don't ask questions just get in." He said, followed by a wink. 

I listened to him as we both settled in the clean car.

"Are you hungry?" He asked. 

I touched my stomach, realizing I didn't even touch my food during lunch. 

"I take that as a yes." He smirked as he pulled out of the school's parking lot. 

I gave him an odd look, making him look over at me. "What?" He said.

"Why didn't you text me back?" I asked him sternly. 

He laughed. "What! I was busy!"

"Busy?" I said with a serious expression. 

"Yea. Some stuff came up." He said, grabbing a hold of my hand. 

I pulled it away slowly, looking away from him.

"What? What's your problem?" He laughed.

I turned to look at him again. "My problem? When those officers put those handcuffs on you I've been worried about you since." 

"But you saw me last night."

"Yea! But! When you left, what happened afterwards? How do I know you didn't run away from home or get into more s**t?!" I snapped. 

"Rachel, calm down. I'm fine." He assured me with a smile.

Why was I being so dramatic?

We suddenly pulled into a parking lot of a local restaurant. 

He looked over at me before flashing a smile. The moment he got out of the car to open my door, I waited patiently. "Thank you." I told him.

He threw his arm around my shoulder as we both headed inside.

"Uh yes!" The waitress said, walking towards us. 

"Table for two." He said proudly. 

"Okay! Right this way!" She said, walking towards a small booth table. 

We followed behind her, taking our seats across from each other. "Okay, can I start you two off with something to drink?" She asked, looking directly at Xiaojun.

He smiled at her before looking at me. "I just want a water." I said, looking down. 

"Two waters." He said. 

"Okay! Two waters! I'll be right back!" She said winking at him before walking away. 

I picked up the menu. "She's pretty." I blurted, keeping my eyes sealed on the menu. 

He chuckled. "Not as pretty as you though." He said, lowering the menu so he could see my face. 

I started blushing, trying to keep my eyes on the menu. 

He picked his up as well, glancing at me every second, making me blush. I kept trying to cover my face but every time I looked up, he would look at me then look back down. "Are you playing peek-a-boo with me?" I laughed, sitting my menu down. 

"Maybe." He said, staring into my eyes.

I felt my heart stop at the sudden stare, only until the waitress came back with our drinks. Her blonde pony tail swayed side from side, as she placed our waters neatly on the table. "Are you guys ready to order?" She asked, still looking at Xiaojun.

I chuckled picking up my menu again. "Can I just get a salad?" I asked carelessly.

"Sure! What kind of salad would you like?" She asked, clicking her pen.

"Umm." I said looking at my menu one last time. "Just a regular Caesar salad." I told her. 

"Okay! And for you?" She said, looking over at Xiaojun for the hundredth time. 

"Umm, I'll just get the steak, medium rare with a baked potato." He said, looking up at her.

"Awesome! Would you like to try our new side, well it's not technically new but it's basically a side of onion rings, we usually offer to every customer, I can give them to you for free though." She said to Xiaojun.

She didn't suggest anything to me...

He smiled. "No thank you."

"Okay! I'll have your order right up!" She said grabbing our menus.

I kept my mouth shut, keeping my hands together underneath the table. 

"Sooo, how was school today?" He asked.

I kept my eyes down. "Great." I simple spoke. 

"Great? Just great?" He chuckled, trying to catch my gaze, but I refused to look at him. 

"Let me guess, you want me to say some cliche s**t like 'Oh it would've been better if you were there?' ?" I mocked.

He touched his chest, imitating it as his heart. "Ouch. You're a bit feisty today." He chuckled. 

"And you're very happy today for someone who not only got his ass kicked by Derek but also got arrested." I blurted. 

His expression turned serious. "Yea okay." He said, pulling his phone out. 

My heart dropped, making my whole mood drop as well as I gave him a mean look. 

"Okay! For you we have a Caesar salad." She said sitting a very beautifully made salad in front of me. "And for you we have a steak, medium rare with a well done baked potato, I also set your sour cream, butter, salt and pepper there for you. Anything else?" She asked him. 

"Umm, no. Thank you." He smiled.

"No problem! Let me know if you need anything." She said walking away. 

I looked down at my bowl, seeing that I didn't have any dressing or croutons. "Oh wait I-"

"What's wrong?" He asked. 

I shrugged. "I don't have any dressing or croutons." I told him. 

"I'll go get it." He said standing up. 

I quickly grabbed his arm. "Hey instead of Caesar dressing, can you get ranch and 2 croutons please?" 

He smiled. "Yea." He said, walking towards the waitress.

I watched as he approached her, her face lit up with happiness and so did her friends. He exchanged a few words with her that I couldn't quite make out, but it looked like they were flirting.

He laughed. She laughed. She pulled her bang out of her face and behind her ear, flashing her pretty white smile at him. Then she turned around to write something down, slowly handing it to him....

He took it, slowly sliding it in his back pocket as she handed him the dressing and croutons. The moment he walked back towards the table, my entire mood was gone, making me lose my appetite. 

"Here you go." He said, sitting everything beside my bowl neatly. 

I grabbed the ranch, pouring it all over my salad. Afterwards, I grabbed the crouton pack, aggressively opening it with my teeth. Last, I pulled my fork out, stabbing through the lettuce and chicken.

Xiaojun watched me as I did so. "Are you mad at me?" He asked.

I then started stuffing my mouth. "Nope!" I said with a mouth full of lettuce.

I looked over at the window of the restaurant, seeing that the sun went down honestly made me happy. My phone suddenly started vibrating, making me quickly pick it up. 

"Who's that?" Xiaojun asked, stuffing his mouth. 

I ignored him, as I answered it. "Hello?" 

"Hey Rache, where are you?" My mom asked. 

"Oh um, I'm out with friends." I told her.

"Is it with that kun boy?" She asked. 

"Mom." 

"Okay okay, sorry. I called to tell you I have another late shift tonight and that there's left over pizza in the fridge if you want it."

"Okay. Thanks mom."

"I love you and be safe okay?" 

"Okay, I love you too." I said hanging up.

After lunch, the moon was officially out and glowing in the beautiful night sky. Since my mom wasn't going to be home, I decided to stay out a little longer. 

He suddenly stopped at a red light. I clicked my seat belt off, climbing in the back seat. 

"What are you doing?" He asked. 

I crossed my arms. "Sitting back here. Away from you." 

The moment the light turned green, he put his car in park, making my eyes grow wide. "Wha-what the hell are you doing?!" I asked, looking behind him at the traffic getting ready to approach. 

"I'm not going anywhere until you get back up here." He chuckled. 

"Dude! Go! Are you crazy?!" I panicked.

"Yes. Which is why I'm not going until you-" 

"Fine!" I said, climbing back to the front seat. "Jesus." 

He laughed before driving again. 

"You're insane!" I yelled, looking behind us, hoping no one saw that. 

He chuckled, pulling into an empty parking spot at the beach we came to when we first kissed. 

The moment he legally put the car in park, I climbed to the back seat again.

"Can you get back up here? Please?" He asked, looking at me in his rear view mirror.

I crossed my arms. "And if I don't? Oh wait, are you gonna hit me? Bully me? Make me drink toilet water?" I said, trying to push his buttons purposely.

He sighed before opening his door. The moment he slammed it shut, he opened the door from the backseat where I was, grabbing my legs, making me fly straight on my back. "No! Let me go!" I screamed, fighting him off as he grabbed my arms, pinning them above my head. 

He crawled on top of me, closing the door behind him. My legs were now underneath him as pinned me down. "Stop." He said, trying to calm me down.

"You're a pathetic ass loser!" I screamed. 

He stopped. "What'd you just say?" 

I laughed hysterically, hoping my words hurt him. "Oops." I said sarcastically.

He suddenly started stripping my shorts off as he got in between my legs. I continued to laugh hysterically at how pissed he was, but that was soon replaced with moaning the moment he aggressively shoved himself inside of me, making my hysterical laugh moans, turn into crying moans. I grabbed a hold of him as he aggressively bit the side of my neck, bringing his hand to the center of it. 

I moaned out in pleasure but his hand was so tight around my neck, my moans barely came out. I was honestly enjoying every moment of this, hoping he would learn a lesson from this but if anything, this was a way of releasing stress and anger for us both. As wrong as it was for me to push his buttons, the outcome was amazing...but it made me feel like a bully. "Xiaojun." I moaned as he started deeply thrusting himself inside of me, making the car shake.

I clawed his back, but sadly, he couldn't feel it through his jacket. I felt my climax coming fast but he kept going. I started pushing him off purposely, but I didn't want him to stop, I just wanted to put up a fight. 

He pinned my arms above my head before aggressively pressing his lips against mines. "You agitate me." He mumbled. 

I bit his button lip, making him thrust inside of me more aggressively. Next thing I know, he stopped, fixing himself before getting out of the car. I lied there speechless, trying to catch my breath. 

That asshole! He didn't finish! Nor did he let me. 

He stood against the car, putting his head down in shame. I quickly pulled my shorts back up, fixing myself before getting out of the car. "f**k you." I let out, pushing him against the car more. 

"In your dreams." He chuckled. 

But I was seriously still pissed and out of breath. "Have fun with your new girlfriend." I blurted before walking away. 

He suddenly pulled my arm back towards him. "Who? You?" He said kissing my lips. 

I pushed away. "You know who I'm talking about. The pretty blonde girl that gave you her number back at the restaurant." I said, trying to fight off his grip. 

He laughed. "Oh her." 

"Oh her??" I said, charging at him again. 

He then pinned me against the car, grabbing my arms in the process. "Why are you so calm about this?" I said, trying to free myself. 

He got closer. "Because you're so f*****g cute." He said in a very stern tone.

My heart dropped, making me stop.

He stared at me for a brief moment before crashing his lips onto mines. He held a tight grip on my arms, before letting one of them go. I started pulling him in closer, aggressively kissing him while he aggressively kissed me back against his car. "I love you." I moaned out onto his lips. 

Then he stopped. 

He pulled away from me, removing himself from my body completely. "I should take you home." He said, looking at the ground. 

I started instantly regretting what I had said. 

He got in the car as I followed behind him. Though the car ride was silent, I tried to appreciate the time we still had together before he left off again. Since he was expelled, I probably wouldn't see as much of him as I wanted to now. 

The moment we pulled into my driveway, he parked the car before looking over at me. "I'll see you around." He said. 

I nodded. "I hope so." I said looking away. I opened the door prepared to get out before being pulled back in. I turned over only for our lips to collide, with his hand on my chin, keeping my face still. 

The moment the kiss ended, I let out a groan, letting him know I didn't want to let go just yet. 

"Bye." He said softly. 

"Bye." I said, getting out of the car. 

He started his car as I stood there, watching as he pulled away and out of sight. I let out a sad sigh. 

I love him...
