We made our way through the dorms, his hand gently squeezing mine as we took in the looks of hatred that beamed at me from very member of the female population that passed. When we reached my truck, he pulled me over to the passenger side. He successfully removed my keys from my shaky hands and proceeded to lift me up into the truck, all though I was perfectly capable of getting myself in. He left a trail of sweet kisses along my jaw line, finally ending with a soft, needful one on my lips. His hand caressed my face and I leaned into it, letting the last stray tear fall directly onto his fingertips. "Everything is going to be okay." He assured me in a whisper, before placing one last soft kiss on my forehead and shutting the door.
He made his way over to the driver's seat and started it up. I felt his soft finger tips glide along the back of my hand. He enlaced his fingers with mine and set our hands on the gear shift before backing out of my spot and peeling onto the road. The ride to the small strip mall was completely silent, other then the low sounds of our breathing and the purr of the engine. Once at the mall, he walked around to my side, pulling open the door and offered me his hand. I gladly took and pulled myself closer to his warm body as we began our walk through the parking lot. After picking out a phone I wanted (and that Reid approved of)I changed my number from my previous account and added the new phone onto it. Finally after about 20 minutes of the usual bullshit, I got to sign the forms and we made our way back to the truck. As we entered the dorm, I let out a sigh of relief. The light in my dorm was off, so I walked over the the small lamp on the desk and turned it on. Looking around the room I saw three of my new friends. Sarah was wrapped in Caleb's arms on her bed and Tyler was lightly snoring on my bed.
Reid began to make his way over to Tyler, an annoyed look on his face. "Aw, come on bab-"he was about to nudge him awake when I put my hand on his arm.
"Let him sleep…It's alright. I probably wont sleep tonight anyway." Reid gave me a defeated look, then walked over to my closet and pulled out one of my uniforms and my bathroom bag.
"Well you're coming with me to my room then." He smirked
I laughed silently. "Obviously."
The week passed by slowly and without threat. Thank god. Reid was always waiting for me outside my classroom, and I was accompanied by one of the four boys during all classes, except study hall that is. But even then, I could swear that every now and then I'd catch a glimpse of wet hair and blue eyes peeking in from the door to the library. Sometimes it was Tyler, but it was mostly Reid. He became very protective of me in the past week as well. Not that I minded, too much. Just no guy would dare to sit by me and all the girls hated me, but for the most part it was alright. In classes I had with either the guys or Sarah and Kate I would just work with them for the projects and help.
Study hall was a completely different story. It made me feel like a leper. All the girls would sit on the other side of the room, speaking to loudly to have not intended me to hear all the gossip about me and Reid, while all the boys would sit close but not too close, to provoke a jealousy trip out of him. Needless to say. No one talked to me. Even the teachers seemed to keep their distance. It was Friday and it was just about time for Nicky's. After taking a long relaxing shower, I pulled on my fitted black and white plaid blouse and some blue torn skinny's. I did my usual make up and pulled on my Balmain Suede zipped ankle boots. As I walked back through the almost deserted hallways, I felt my heart begin to race. It was the first time I had been alone all week. Reid was finishing up his swim practice and I had insisted that Sarah went to go cheer them all while I showered. Assuring her that I would go straight to the gym after I was finished. I hurried to the dorm and pulled out my Blister leather biker jacket and slipped it over my shoulders, not bothering to put my arms in it. As I walked outside I began thinking about how unusually cold it was for the middle of September. I pulled out a cigarette and lit it up, inhaling deeply as I hurried over to the building with the gym. I sat on a bench outside and enjoyed my cancer stick. "I need to quit" I mumbled to myself as I took another drag.
" Yeah, you do" his voice stopped my heart. My breath caught in my chest and I quickly pulled out my cell phone, hitting send. It would be calling Sarah, and hopefully she would be able to hear our conversation over the noise of the pool.
