And so, that afternoon we have our lunch in one table with Justin monroe and his friends. I know for a fact that everyone is whispering. Every girls in the cafetaria stealing glances at our direction in jealous. I almost can hear the : what the hell is going on? Why's Justin and his friends sit with these losers? What are they looking in them? Is Justin dump Rachel for this new chick? Who the hell is she? But no one brave enough to really staring openly.
They talk animatedly about nothing, but I don't really follow the plot . My mind's gone rampage, thinking about thousands different scenario behind the chasing. I just pretend to be busy with my food while the truth is I can't tell what I'm eating.
I don't know how, but however I realize the cafetaria is somehow fell really silent except the voices from our table. I lift my head. There she is... Rachel and her minions storming in our direction. Seriously, her minions should be yellow and short and cute, they're absolutely faithfull to the she devil.
" Justin, what are you doing here?" she demanded in her high pitched histerical voice.
" Lunch" I automaticaly answered, at the same time with Justin monroe. Oh-Oh! I realize she talked to Justin monroe, too late. It's Maddie's fault. Just because her crush at Justin monroe, now I have to be dragged in this mess.
Collin dan Trent exchange exciting glances. Trent even put both his hand behind his head and lean back in his chair, clearly enjoying the show. Looking at me in "Told ya" glances. The bastard. I scowled, but he's just smirking.
" I'm not talking to you" She snap at me. I just shruged. She's breathing funny like she has run a marathon and her face red in furious. I almost can see smoke outa her ears. Her vein is likely about to burst.
" Meowww. Catfight" Collin snickering at Trent, whose just grinning before shaking his head at his friend's antic. What?!! Now they're expecting a catfight?! Those clowns. I rolled my eyes, but I just resuming my meal. I don't want to get in the way and worse things out. Rachel throw Collin a dagger glance.
" You will treat Justin nice, Rach " Justin Monroe said in his icy voice. He's stand up slowly, towering over Rachel and he's now leaning his pretty face to Rachel's. He must be six feet something, because Rachel height just reach his chin. And Justin Monroe is a big guy, considering he's playing football along with Trent and Collin. And let me tell you, now he looks scary.
" Her name's Justin?" Rachel shriek in disbelief.
" Yes. Isn't that nice?. We shared names" Justin smirking. But his tone still icy cold.
" You're in this b***h side now?" Rachel demanded in an even higher pitch. She's looking at me in disgust and then back at Justin Monroe. I almost can hear her brain screaming in disbelieve. You choose this girl? Are you for real? But she knows better than humiliate herself in this crowd. It's a lunch time. and it's a boring first day school. A little ruckus is a treat. I even cacth some sophomore took a video.
" Yes. Because she's nice. And I'm sick having you bitching around" Justin glared at Rachel " Now. I need you to apologize to Justin. Nicely I might add. Like, right now" Justin added in low tone closing to growl to Rachel
I can hear some gasp. Mostly from our own table. Undoubtedly Maddie and her gangs looking smug. I won't be surprise if after this they're going celebrate by dancing around fire all night long. Even if till this second no one dare to intervene, the clown Collin just smirking and Trent starting to look bored.
" Now, Rach" Justin Monroe growls.
" I-I'm sorry" Rachel stutter, she throw a dagger glance to me briefly. And I can see she's not sorry. Angry more likely. Whoa, now I belief that Justin meant everything to her, for she can set aside her pride to apologize. Both her friends froze behind her with their jaw to the floor. They need to wacth out, or they'll swalow bugs.
" I though Justin said ; Nicely Rach..." Collin added gleefully, I know he just fueled gas on fire. And his face is absolutely entertained. What a clown. Trent apparently catch what's he's trying to do too, for he slapped Collin's head in a warning glare. But Collin being Collin just glared back, and now Trent chuckled. what interesting duo.
" No. It's okay. Never mind" I cut in, waving my hand that's still holding fork at her. I really don't want this silly escapades getting out of hands.
" Now. Get lost. And don't show your face in front of me. Like, forever" Justin glared at her. Rachel jaw dropped, her mouth open and close, like she's trying to say something but just can't found the right words. Her furious face now flip to the really pale state, as if it's drain of blood. However I felt pity. Because, lets face it. It was just really a low blow. Her threat is now proved to be empty which is everyone in this school seems to witness. She just too snob for her own good. She just gone too far with the fact that she's the leader of cheerleading squad and her status as Justin Monroe's girlfriend.
" Did you break up with me?" Rachel's voice is in the verge of broken.
" Did we ever official? I can't remember ever asking you to be my girlfriend. I just put up with you " Justin said in an icy cold voice. I can hear fatigue in his voice. Now, that is really a blow. Everyone in this room can hear it.
" Why? Because of this lowlife?" she said thrusting her well manicured finger at my direction. My blood boiled at her insult. But I remind myself I don't have a problem with this silly b***h and I'm here for Maddie, so I pretend as if I hear nothing. We need to keep a low profile.
" I'll pretend you didn't just say that, otherwise I'll make sure you're expelled. Now, get lost, before I change my mind" Justin Monroe growled even more.
Rachel paled even more. Both her friend catch Rachel before she fell on the floor, and they kind of dragged her out. Mumbled sweet nothing to her. Thanks god, she let her friends dragging her out. Or else there will be blood shed here. But she shot me hatred before gone.
After that, Justin sit back and took a big bite at his pizza as if nothing happen. And they start chatting again, as if everything is in normal day. Even if all eyes in cafetaria still at our direction. But, they're right too, with their ignorance soon people averting their eyes from us. And so, I slip back in own though, until one big palm waved in face back and fort.
" Hey! Earth to Justin" I turn around and found Trent smirking at me. He really is gorgeous. When he's grin the dimple showed in his left cheek. He often wearing a scowl, and that's really hot. Which one I prefered? Maybe both.
" I'm sorry. I guess I was day dreaming" I said, before to turn around to check if the others paid attention. Thank god it was just Trent. To my surprise Maddie and Justin Monroe is talking animatedly. They must don't realize they now leaning to each other. And I can tell Justin flirting with her too. Well, I wish...
" You're bored" Trent accused
" No. Im just..."
" Bored" he completed my sentence "Seriously. Where have you been?" He asked " Were I with you there?" he whispered that last question close to my ear. His hot breath hit my ear, made me shiver. I can't belief a boy could do that to me. And blood rushing to my face. I can feel it burn.
" I guess. I'm sleepy" I stutter. He's just smirking
" No. You're not. You eat that much" Now I look at my empty plate "So, will you come?" He asked. Thank god, he changed the subject. But what was the discussion about?
" Where?" I have to ask
" You were really not here" he's smirking again. Oh god, even he's smirk is hot " We've been inviting you all to our band practice after school at our place. Do you like music, Justin?" he asked
" Yes. No. I don't know, I guess. But I'll go if Maddie go. I told you, I'm working" I answered. How the hell I know if I like music or not. The dreams only talking about m******e and blood. Damn amnesia.
" Yeah. Sure, sure" he chuckled before shaking his head.
" Okay girls, lets get back to class, and we'll see you at my place later. Shall we?" Justin stand up offering his hand to Maadie which she take happily. Trent look up and following him, but collin still stuck in his chair sipping his milkshake. Justin kick his feet "Come on, dude". Collin just rolled his eyes but stand up eventually. He's winking at me before go. What was that for?
" Sure" The girls gone with them enthusiasticly.
