Beatrice’s pov

Classes were a breeze, I had no trouble keeping myself stable and not have an outburst again

Sadly the day must come to an end, the bell dismissed the final class I had for the day. I was ready to serve my sentence but I needed my sweetheart with me

I pushed through the door of the basketball court, my eyes immediately found the short girl at an attitude

"Princess, detention awaits us" I smirked, she slowly turned to face me with a glare

"First off, don't call me that. Secondly I'm not going to paint props for some stupid class, they can do it themselves" I stepped closer to her

"Ah they can, but they need your excellent painting skills to bring their props to life" Zack and Joanna chuckled. Bella spun around and glared at them, they instantly went quite

"Look, you're new here so let me break it down for you. I do what I want and whenever I feel like. You can't control me" she says before walking back to her team

"But your father can" I smirked, she stopped in her tracks

"I hate you" she mumbles

"I can change that" I smirked, Zack and Joanna started chuckling

"Joanna, take over. I'll see you all tomorrow and be prepared to push yourselves" Bella says before making her way back to me

"Move it dumbass" she says speeding pass me, I chuckled to myself and followed her

Bella hurriedly walked through the hallway, I dragged behind with my eyes trailing down her body. My plump ass just called my name-

"Hey baby, I missed you"

My eyes left her body and focused on the boy standing before her. He had tall, brown curly hair. Never picked him for her type

Then again I never thought guys were her type

His hand gripped on her waist for dear life, I mentally cringed as he kissed her, a sloppy kiss might I add. She looked uncomfortable, yet her hands were rubbing all over him

If I had the opportunity to have my lips on hers, I'd make sure she never forgets it

"I'm sorry baby, you know what it's like to be under pressure, I have the whole team depending on me" she says, he pouted, begging for another kiss which she didn't give him. So he reached in and went for it

She let his wet, slimy lips attack hers while I stood there watching. I felt a sting in the heart I never knew I had.

A feeling rushing through my body. Was it butterflies?I've got the bad kinds of butterflies

The ones you get when your parents call you by your last name.

When a teacher finds out you cheated on a test.

The kinds you feel when your crush kisses their boyfriend right in front of you and there's nothing you can do about it.

I closed my eyes and sighed, I wasn't gonna let this affect me. I barely even know the girl for fuck sakes.

Here I was, excited to spend time with her when she just wants nothing to do with me

Life is like that, it's a lesson I learnt the hard way

I can't get my heart broken if I never had one in the first place right?

It's just the second day of seeing her face. Why was I feeling like this?

I opened my eyes and walked past them into the auditorium. The theatre teacher from today came to greet me

"Hey, Beatrice right? Where's the other girl?" she asked

"Probably still sucking face with a tub of hair gel" I mumbled

"Um, okay" she chuckled with a hint of confusion

"Well, we just wrapped up practice, there's a few backgrounds on the stage that need painting. If you can just make it look like a bush, that would be great" she chuckled and patted my back. I nodded and she left

I made my way to center stage, I noticed two aprons hung on the props, I took one and tied it behind my back

"Can you help me with mine?" Bella says

I closed my eyes and let out a deep breath before turning to face her with a smile

"Sure" Bella lifted her hair and I pulled the cloth around her body, my hands knotted the strings and I turned back to unpainted wood

"You left me back there" she mumbled while dipping the paintbrush in some water

"Was I supposed to? You left me in the court and then you go makeout with some guy" I say

"He's my boyfriend, if you're wondering" she said

"I didn't ask" I glanced at her

"Are you always this rude?"

"Yes, take it or leave it"

"I'll leave it" she said

"Fine then" I spat angrily and continued painting the wooden canvas, we stayed there in an awkward silence for a few minutes

"Do you love him?" I questioned

"Well he's my boyfriend"

"You're not answering my question"

"And why should I answer?" she raised a brow, I was now finished with my canvas

"Your boyfriend is a child"

"Excuse me?"

"Break up with your boyfriend" I said boldly

"And get with you?"

"Yes." I said honestly, her mouth hung open

"He's literally just using you for your body and you're allowing him to" I say honestly

She stepped over to me, our bodies inches apart

"How dare you" she said, I simply rolled my eyes. I was being factual

"Do you honestly have feelings for him, because it seems like you can't stand it when he touches you" I say

"You don't know me"

"Then let me know you" I say, her eyes softened. She sighed and went back to her canvas

"I'll have to get to know you somehow Bella, we have an assignment" I chuckled, she remained silent. Ugh was she really gonna be this difficult

I pulled my phone out my pocket and opened a new chat. I'll talk to her the way she truly knew how to

I pulled up her contact and texted her

Beatrice: I'm sorry :(

Bella pulled her phone from her back pocket, her brows furrowed in confusion as she read the message. She probably doesn't know who it's from

Beatrice: I just think you're worth more than someone like that. You're sweet when you want to be and you're a badass Bella, why can't you stand up for yourself to someone you don't care about?

Bella: You don't know anything about us, stop assuming everything you see

Beatrice: well I assume you want to kiss me right now

I smirked as her cheeks went pink reading the message

Bella: Now I know you're really imagining things.

Beatrice: whatever you say Princess, are we gonna get together and do our assignment?

Bella: My parents are throwing a friends get-together at our place tomorrow, I can't

Beatrice: We can just go to my house, I'll drive you home afterwards

Bella: Great. I'll see you then.
