Kingston's POV

"So, I'm pretty sure I'm going to ask Scartlett to homecoming," Cayden said at lunch. I stopped eating and looked up at him.

"Dude, do it!" Drake said high-fiving him. "She's super hot!" I clenched my jaw and started eating again. Deep down inside of me I wanted to tell Cayden that he couldn't take her to homecoming because I wanted to take her to homecoming, but I'm taking Jewel to homecoming.

"What do you think King?" Cayden asked. I looked up confused like I haven't heard half of their conversation already.

"About what?"

"Me asking Scarlett to homecoming,"he said slowly. He had a confused look at his face.

"Yeah, go for it," I said. He smiled then turned back to the guys. I listened in on their conversation and they talked about how hot Scarlett was, but Cayden looked a little uncomfortable. Scarlett is more than hot though, she is beautiful. Scarlett is beautiful inside and out.

"You guys do realize this is my cousin you're talking about right?" Payton said annoyed. I didn't even know Payton was Scarlett's cousin. They all shrugged and rolled their eyes.

"Hey guys," Jewel said suddenly standing in front of our table. She had a huge smile on her face. "Who are y'all talking about?"

"Scarlett," they all said at the same time. Jewel's smile flattered a bit and her eyes flashed disgust as she made an 'o' shape with her mouth. She stood there awkwardly for a few moments tapping her fingers on the table. The guys paid her no attention.

"Wanna sit down?" I asked offering the seat next to me. She glanced over at me and nodded with a even bigger smiled. "Hey." I smiled and she whispered a hi.

"Hey baby, you can sit right here." Drake pulled the other girl into his lap and she squealed but didn't remove herself from his lap.

"Oh, I'm Abrianna," she said waving at me. Abrianna was gorgeous. She has long curly black hair and big brown eyes. I waved before turning my attention back to Jewel.

"I can't wait for homecoming," Jewel whisphered in my ear. "Are we going to go to the after-party to?"

"I didn't even know there was an after party," I told her.

"Yeah, it's usually as Mitchell's house," she said.

"Sure, we can go." She smiled and leaned it close to my face.

"Great," she whisphered before putting her lips on mine. Her lips were soft and exciting as they moved against mine. She tasted like strawberries and I was almost lost when a familiar voice reached my ears and I pulled away. Jewel looked confused but sat back in her chair and looked at who was talking with complete utter disgust.

"Hey, can we sit here?" Scarlett asked never looking at me. Her cheeks were tinged slightly pink. I wonder why.

"I think the table is pretty full actually but there's an empty table over there." Jewel pointed to a table across the row. Everyone scowled over at Jewel, even I looked over at her a little suspitiously.

"Actually, you guys can sit here between me and Cayden," Marshall spoke up. Nevada blushed and sat next to him. "Hey." He smiled.

"Hi," she whisphered and blushed more.

"Hey baby," Cayden said putting his arms around Scarlett.

"Don't call me that," she laughed. Her cheeks were tinged pink and she laughed to herself.

"So Scarlett," Cayden said. "Has anyone asked you to homecoming yet?" He was smiling widely.

"Yeah, a few actually," she said confidently. She didn't look back at Cayden but I did and you couldn't see the smile that was there a couple seconds ago. "But I didn't say yes to any of them. Not really my type of guys." Cayden let out a relieved breath.

"Good," he said softly.

"Pardon?" she said looking at him. I knew she didn't hear him but he perked up instantly.

"Nothing, I was just talking to myself. So would you like to hang out after school? Maybe get some coffee or something?" he asked.

"Sure," she said smiling. Nevada poked her with her elbow and laughed slightly before turning back to her conversation with Marshall. The bell rang bolting everyone from there thoughts.

"Wanna walk to english together?" Jewel asked.

"Yeah," I smiled at her taking her hand and walking past Cayden and Scarlett. Cayden had his arms around her waist and she had her arms around his neck. I looked away before I could see Cayden put a long kiss to her lips which she didn't pull away from.

"Are you okay?" Jewel asked rubbing my arm. I nodded still in a daze. "Okay." She sounded unsure so I smiled at her showing her I was fine.

SCARLETT'S POV

Cayden put my arms around his neck and his arms around my waist pulling me into his hard chest.

"We are going to be late," I said glancing down at his lips before looking into his grey eyes again.

"I don't care," he whispered back. He smiled at me before putting his lips on mine. When his started to move I pulled him by his shirt so he was closer to me putting no space between us. He licked my bottom lip and I eagerly opened my mouth to let him explore. Just as he ran his hand over my sides someone cleared their throats.

"Why don't you two get to class," our principle said with his arms crossed.

"Yes sir," I said rushing off. I could feel my face heating up and then I felt Cayden grab my hand.

"Let's go to class yeah?" he said with a smirk on his face. I nodded and laughed.

We were at the local Starbucks getting coffee and an after school snack. Cayden and I sat a table, him across from me. His eyes were so grey, and he still has the slight stubble on his face. His dark grey v-neck really brought the grey color of his eyes. His hair was messier than usual, like he had been running his fingers through it a lot.

"So, I wanted to ask you something, two things actually." Cayden said. He had a serious look on his face and he only looked at my eyes. Cayden reached across the table and grabbed both of my hands.

"Sure.." I said slightly nervous.

"Ok, well Scarlett, I really like you and I just wanted to know if maybe uhh...maybe you'd wanna be my girlfriend." He asked. I never took my eyes off of Cayden. I can't date. I tried once and it's nothing I want to do again until I'm good and ready.

"Oh Cayden," I said finally looking away from his eyes and I pulled my hands from his and put them in my lap. "I don't know. I mean I like you, I just can't go through a bad break up again."

"I would never want to hurt you Scarlett. I would never do anything as evil as he did to you either. Just the thought sickens me." He sounded so sincere. I was still hesitant though. "Please Scarlett."

I sighed knowing I was getting myself into trouble. "Fine, I'll be your girlfriend." His face lite up with a bright smile then he leaned over the table and gave me a lingering kiss.

"Ok girlfriend, next question." I raised my eyebrows at him to continue. "Will you, Scarlett Alexandria Stroud, do me the honors of being my date to homecoming?" He was knealing on one knee in front of my like he was proposing.

"I'd love to." I smiled. He stood up taking me with him.

He wrapped his arms around my waist and leaned down to my ear. "Good 'cause i wasn't going to take no for an answer." Then he pressed his lips hard into mine giving me a long passionate kiss. His lips were eager against mine and I happily let him do what he wanted.

"He asked you to be his girlfriend!" Nevada said suprised. I nodded and looked at her under my hair. I was still suprised myself. "Wow, I never thought the day would come again."

"Shut up!" I said pushing her shoulder with my foot. We both laughed.

"So did you hear that Willow is going with Jake? And that Jake is the guy she cheated on Kingston with?" I shook my head.

"I never noticed how horrible she was until this year," I said. Nevada agreed then an excited smile grew on her face.

"Guess who's number I got today.." she trailed off biting her lip. I waited for her to continue and her excitement grew with each passing second. "Marshall's, and he wants to hang out tomorrow." Her smile looked like it was hurting her face it was so big.

"Oh my god! That's awesome!" She nodded making her curls bounce everywhere. "I'm so happy for you." She smiled then looked down at her phone that just beeped.

"It's him. He said he wants to meet at the ice cream shop." She jumped up excited.

"Go!" I yelled at her. She said a quick bye and left my room. She finally is getting what she deserves.
