CHAPTER 23
.
“Chill out. No one died.” Surprisingly his voice was calm. Normally he would yell right back at me.
“Well I wish someone did.” I said, referring to Tyler.
“Don’t wish to die Lexi. Who’s going to be here for me to pick on.”
“Nah nah nah.” I said in a mocking way and rolled my eyes. “Why are you shirtless? Put a shirt on or something. Or do you for people’s eyes to melt in torture?” I almost smiled at my amazing words. And yet… not so amazing.
“What? Are you distracted by this?” Tyler smirked, gesturing his finger around his body.
“Ew! No!” I lied.
Any girl would drool all over him. Even me, but of course I wouldn’t right here and now. If my brain had a mouth, it would be drooling right now. How can someone be that hot but be such a cruel person at the same time? It’s a waste of a good face on a bad boy.
It’s like he was born to be a good person. But his terrible personality ruins everything. He’s a guy with a big ego and doesn’t even like Courtney more than a friend because of his player boy actions. He sleeps with any girl, anytime like they’re some kind of toys.
Even the way he dresses everyday makes girls swoon.
But just looking at him right now really did distract me. I forced myself from staring at him. His sweat pants hung low on his waist and those abs…
“Why would you be shirtless at a time like this?! It’s freezing!”
“Cause I was jogging.” He said in a ‘duh’ tone.”
I just stared at him with a straight face.
“When people jog, they sweat and get all hot so that means they’re not cold.” His face got close to mine and I could smell his minty breath as he spoke. And what bothered me is that he spoke as if he was talking to a little kid.
“I know that. I’m not stupid.”
“Oh really?” Tyler said, like he really taught I was stupid.
I rolled my eyes and taught about kneeing him, but decided against it.
“Oh and by the way, I don’t need to get hot. I’m already hot .” Tyler smirked.
“Get over yourself you-” I kicked him, “-reeky-” another kick, “-onion eyed-” another kick, “-freak!”
Wow, nice choice of words Lexi. Note the heavy sarcasm.
And he wasn’t hurt a bit when I kicked him on the shin. It was like nothing could hurt him. And all he did was laugh.
Smooth Lexi, really smooth.
“That’s not a nice thing to say to a person you
want to be friends with.” He smirked his signature smirk.
“What are you talking about?”
“Oh, so you don’t remember.” He said it more as a statement than a question.
“Remember what?”
“Yesterday you told me you want to be friends with me.” He smiled. It was a nice smile. With those perfect white teeth.
Ah! Focus! You stupid idiot!
“No I didn’t!” I laughed humorously.
“You did. You just don’t remember. You were too drunk.”
“I don’t believe you.” I crossed my hands over my chest.
“Then believe me when I tell you that you were singing and dancing like an idiot.”
“No.” I said, even though I was scared a little that it might be true.
Tyler reached in his pocket of his sweat pants and pulled out his phone.
Oh god. If this was a movie scene, they’ll make me do a big gulp of fear.
Tyler pulled up a video on his phone and showed me the screen. And there I was, dancing like a crazy person and singing like a lady who just lost her teeth. Okay… not really but still. I wish this was just a movie scene. I have no doubt that he’ll post it online or something.
“Oh god.” I tried to snatch the phone away from him but he way to fast and too tall for me to reach it. “Tyler, I swear. If you don’t delete that-”
Tyler cut me off. “Oh, don’t worry. I’ll delete it.”
“Really?” I smiled.
“Yeah, after I post it everywhere.” He smiled.
I glared at him.
He put the phone back into his pocket.
I almost forgot we were standing out on the sidewalk until a girl walking her dog, passed by us. She was really pretty with he red hair and green eyes.
She was staring at Tyler in awe and Tyler smiled back at her.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“Cute puppy.” He said getting a laugh from her in return. But I knew he wasn’t talking about the dog she was walking, cute. He was looking straight into her eyes.
He was flirting with her.
Ah, the Tyler I know and love. Just kidding. It’s the Tyler I know and hate . He’s just annoying. And I want him to stay out of my life.
He’s a jerk.
“Really?” I rolled my eyes at his flirting.
“What? You jealous?” Tyler smirked.
“Why would I be jealous over you?”
“Cause you like me.”
“More like hate you.”
“Hates a strong word.” He shook his head in fake disapproval.
“Then it explains how strongly I really hate you.”
“You know, you shouldn’t hate a guy who brought you home safely.”
“What are you talking about?” I asked. “You didn’t bring me home.”
“Oh yes I did.”
“Courtney said you were with her the whole night.”
“Well maybe you shouldn’t trust Courtney.” He said like he doesn’t even care Courtney lied.
“And why should I believe you?” I raised my eye brows.
“Because I know that I left you a glass of water a pain killers. Since it was my fault, you know.” He shrugged.
I was shocked. Tyler was actually the one who brought me all the way home. And gave me those pain killers. Not anyone else but him.
Courtney lied. And what scared me more is that, I don’t know if it’s the first time she lied to me.
I turned around without saying another word to Tyler. I can’t take it anymore.
But I guess I really didn’t hate him. I just didn’t really like him. If that makes any sense at all.
Since he doesn’t even like me either anyway. We will never be friends again.
Because I can’t hate a person who tried to stop me from drinking, took me home, and left me pain killers.
But I’m really mad at Courtney, again, for the second time!
