Thirteen

Katherine

Nothing could have prepared me for what was about to happen today because I thought it would be like every other day. I told Katie I was going to the restroom to avoid Alexander because that was the only place where male students were not allowed.

He had been so glued to me all day that I thought I was going to suffocate. All eyes were on me, which made me feel uneasy throughout the class. His minions were staring daggers at me and I knew if I wasn’t careful, I was going to get into trouble with one of them. My once peaceful life was ruined, and I now had to watch my back to avoid being cornered by them.

I was exhausted. I took a deep breath and stared at my reflection. I hadn’t even agreed to Katie’s plan yet, but I was already exhausted and wondered if I could last for as long as it will take Alexander to fall for me in order for me to carry it out.

When I saw Alexander walk into the female restroom, I was taken aback. He dared to come in here, oblivious to what people would say if they found him in here, and on top of that, I was going to be the topic of everyone’s conversation for having a quickie with the school’s most popular boy in the girl's restroom. I was already breaking out in cold sweats because of the possible headline.

“What are you doing in here?” In hushed tones, I whispered.

“I came to find you. You've been avoiding me all day, and it hurts,” he replied, and I rolled my eyes.

“I haven’t been avoiding you, Alexander, why should I? I have been busy, maybe that’s why it seems that way. Leave now, we can talk about this later,” I said, not looking away from the restroom door in case someone came in.

“See, you’re doing the same thing you always do, pushing me away.”

“I’m not. Do you realize where you are right now? You should be concerned about the consequences of being seen in a girl’s restroom,” I advised.

“I don’t care what they say, I’m here for you, not them.”

“Well, I do care what they think. My day has already been ruined by them staring at me because you wouldn’t leave me alone. Do you have to be glued to me all day? Forget it, just leave. I don’t want this to be added to the list of things you’ve made me endure,” I told him.

“Why do you hate me so much? Many girls would jump at the opportunity,” he said with a smirk on his face.

“Then you should go be with the other girls and leave me alone,” I almost yelled at the end.

He smiled and leaned in, his face just a few inches from mine. “It's a first for me.”

”Huh?”

“That’s the first time I’ve heard you say a curse word. Katherine, you amaze me, and I know there is more to you that I want to know.”

“Well, I don’t want to know you, and I don’t want you to know me, so now-”

My thoughts were cut short when I heard the door to the restroom open and the laughter of female students approaching us. I quickly took his hand in mine and entered one of the toilets, closing the door behind us.

‘Big mistake,’ I thought to myself. The room was cramped, and my back was against the wall, while his chest was against me. Being trapped with the one I hate was not what I had in mind.

“You could have told me you wanted to be alone, and I would have invited you over to my room.”

“Are you cra-”

"Shh!!” he said, pressing his finger to my lips, “You don’t want to be loud. The girls are still outside. Or do you want to draw attention to us?” he asked as he leaned in closer.

I could feel his breath on my neck, and suddenly the room began to heat up. I wanted to get out of here. I wished the girls would be quicker at whatever they were doing.

“You have a nice smell. Do you know how much you drive me insane?” While still smelling my neck, he asked.

“Stop it and get the hell away from me,” I said in a whisper, which made him laugh.

“Why? Are you getting turned on? Do you want my help? I’m good at things like this, you can ask the other girls. I can satisfy your needs right now.” His face lit up with a smoldering smile.

“Alexander, get the fuck away from me. I’d rather rot than be touched by you.” I warned him.

“I can smell your innocence, and it drives me insane. I know you want me, so why don’t we cut to the chase and just have some fun together?” he said as he kissed my neck softly.

I wanted to scream and hit him hard, but I was afraid of the girls finding out and using it to gossip even more about me. I didn’t want my reputation to suffer.

I could hear them talking about how disgusting I was and how I was the one seducing Alexander to date me because obviously, Alexander wouldn’t see anything in a worthless human like me. I clenched my fist in rage, wanting to devour them, but if I made a move, they’d see Alexander next to me and their assumptions would be correct.

I had to put up with everything he did, and goodness, his kisses were warm and slowly driving me insane.

‘You shouldn’t enjoy this. You shouldn’t like this. You should hate this.’ I told myself, but my body was thinking other things as each of his kisses sent hot heat through my entire body.

I wanted to push him away from me, but instead, I was tightly gripping his arm and shirt as a slow moan escaped my lips unintentionally. He smiled and moved his face closer to mine. My heart was racing.

This was not something I wanted. I didn’t want my first kiss to be taken by someone like him; he was all shades of wrong to me.

“Pl-please stop,” I whispered, pleading.

“I will if you tell me you will be mine, and that you are mine.”

“Never. I’ll never-” My words were cut short as he tightened his grip on my waist and kissed both my cheeks and nose.

He threatened, “Last warning, your lips will be next.”

“Fine... fine... I’ll agree to date you, so stop.”

“Good, you’re now mine,” He said with a big grin on his face.

When I heard the voices leaving, I did something he never expected me to do, I kicked his nuts and dashed through the door before he changed his mind.
