Chapter 52: Awkward Lunch Encounters
Sure he was hot, but he had nothing on my Liam. "He’s cute," I confird, nodding in agreent.
"Johnny, tell us a little about yourself," Mrs Stewart suggested.
He shifted uncomfortably on his feet as he looked around the class nervously. "Er..... well, I’ve just moved to Timberfield with my mom and stepfather. I have a little brother who’s one. And I like to skate?" he said, making it sound more like a question.
"OK, well I’m sure you’ll be very happy here. How about I pair you with soone for my class then they can show you to your next class after?" Mrs Stewart offered. I groaned. There was no way she would pick , that’s the kind of thing that just happens in cheesy stories. I sank down in my seat, looking at my book, praying for a break. "Jessica, are you volunteering?" Mrs Stewart asked. My head snapped up and I breathed a sigh of relief. Kate cursed under her breath and put her hand back down, she was obviously volunteering too.
Johnny made his way across the class to sit next to Jessica, who was busy undoing another button on her already slutty shirt. He smiled at
as he walked past my desk. "Hi, Amber," he said quietly.
"Hi, Johnny," I replied, a little shocked. How the hell did he know my na? I watched him sit next to Jessica, she imdiately starting flirting her ass off with him, while he just seed to be nodding politely, looking uncomfortable.
Kate looked at
with wide eyes. "I thought you didn’t know him," she whispered, frowning at , looking a little confused.
I shook my head. "I don’t. How the hell did he know who I was? I’ve never seen him before," I replied.
The teacher cleared her throat. "Right then, if we’re all done talking, how about we start the lesson?" she asked sarcastically. I grabbed my book and sunk further into my seat, trying not to look in his direction.
As soon as the bell rang I jumped out of my seat and practically ran from the room, not wanting to chance another eting. I silently prayed over and over in my head that he wasn’t in anymore of my classes. Thankfully, the rest of the morning went past with no more run-ins with my new stepbrother.
People were talking to
a lot today; everyone was asking if Liam and I were an item, they wanted to know how long we’d been together. Blah, blah, blah, it was the sa thing over and over and I was already bored of it.
"Hey, Angel," Liam purred, grabbing
from behind as I stood in the lunch line with Kate and Sean.
"Hi." I smiled, feeling instantly happier now that he was near .
"How’s your day been?" he asked, kissing my neck, making
squirm.
I sighed. "Well, I’ve been answering the sa questions over and over. It was so bad that I’m actually considering getting: ’Yes, I am dating Liam. Yes, I have won the bet. Yes, he is a good boyfriend. No, my brother didn’t go crazy,’ tattooed across my forehead so I don’t need to keep repeating myself," I joked, shrugging.
He laughed and held
tighter. "Aside from the repeating myself, I had a class with my stepbrother. He knew who I was. And oh yeah, he’s walking in right now with that skank Jessica, who by the way, looks like she wants to kill . So my day’s not going too good, boyfriend," I stated, discreetly nodding towards Johnny.
"He knew who you were?" Liam asked, turning
slightly so he was hiding
from Johnny’s view.
"Yeah. He said hello to
as he walked past," I replied, frowning, still not understanding how he recognised .
Liam laughed and looked at
as if I said sothing stupid. "He probably didn’t know who you were, Angel, he probably thought you were hot. Can’t bla him there," he purred, grinning at
as his hand moved down to cup my ass.
I rolled my eyes. "Liam, he walked past and said ’hi, Amber’ so I think he knew who I was," I stated sarcastically.
He frowned and looked over his shoulder before chuckling wickedly. "He doesn’t look too comfortable with Jessica."
"Well who the hell would look comfortable near Jessica? Oh yeah, you didn’t look too stressed when you were hanging all over her," I teased, smirking at him.
He turned his nose up, faking a shudder. "Don’t remind
about my forr life without you, Angel. I’ll have nightmares," he said with mock horror, making
laugh.
I grabbed a couple of sandwiches and drinks. Liam insisted on paying and carrying the tray as usual. I headed over to his table and sat down next to him. Jake was already there with so of his boys from the team, my friends all sat down too, taking the last seats. I ripped open my sandwich and was just about to take a bite when a shadow fell over .
"Hi," Johnny said smiling, he was blushing slightly.
I gulped, feeling my stomach sink a little. "Er, hi."
"You mind if I sit with you?" he asked, looking at
hopefully.
I saw Jake tense from the corner of my eye. I looked around at the full table. "Um...." I trailed off, biting my lip.
"Never mind, don’t worry. I just thought I should introduce myself." He shrugged, blushing harder, shifting on his feet uncomfortably.
Kate kicked
under the table. "Ouch! What the hell was that for?" I asked, rubbing my leg. She glared at . I knew exactly what it was for, I had to ask him to sit with us for her sake or I wouldn’t hear the end of it this afternoon. Oh God, kill
now! "It’s fine, Johnny. Grab a chair, you can sit on the end here," I suggested, moving my tray over so he could put down his plate and drink.
