17. Good gone bad
I got up and ate breakfast and Landon drove me to school. I went through the door to third hour and listened to the teacher drown on and on about some unknown subject. Hey this is high school your not supposed to pay attention in class.
Soon enough it was lunch. I sat down at our table with my tray. I started eating when I noticed something missing. "Where's Jace?" I asked Preston. He had paid attention in class. "He went to his locker and said he would be back in a minute." "Ok so I'll get there at two because of cheer." Berkley said. We had made plans this Saturday to watch a movie at my house. "I'll go find Jace and tell him the plan." I said and got up from the table. I walked out the door of the cafeteria and walked into the hallway. I walked around the corner of the row of lockers.
Oh there he was just kissing Lori. Wait. He was kissing LORI! "Jace?" I asked. I was shocked, angry and upset all at the same time. Lori pulled away as Jace stepped away from her. Lori had a smile plastered on her face.
"Cambrey listen." Jace was saying as Lori walked up to me. "Jace how could you kiss me! I mean you have a girlfriend." She said it in a fake shocked voice. I wasn't an idiot that was born yesterday. Lori did it on pourpose. I was not falling for her shocked tone. "Jace you have ten seconds to explain." I scowled even though I hoped he really didn't kiss her and it was the other way around. "Cambrey I was at my locker getting my books and Lori stopped by me to say hi and then she suddenly kissed me." "How long." I scowled again. "Six seconds max. Then you came." He told me.
I didn't think Lori would do something like this. "Do you go around different schools kissing girls boyfriends?" I asked. She just smiled. The bell rang and the halls flooded with students. I walked to my locker leaving Jace in the crowd. I didn't know if he was telling the truth. Though I didn't want to think of him as a liar. I thought Lori was a good person to. I didn't know who to belive.
"Hey Cammi." Blake said as I walked through the door. I had the bus drop me off today. I didn't even respond to the greeting. I went upstairs and looked at my math book for two hours.
"Cammi dinner is ready." Landon said as he walked in my room. I knew what he saw. He saw me at my desk staring blankly at my math book with a piece of paper under my arm and a pencil in my hand. "Cammi is somehting wrong?" Landon wasn't stupid. This happened one time when Mallory had her first boyfriend. Landon knew what he was looking for. Except dad fixed it not Landon. Dad was around then.
Suddenly I felt my whole frame shake. And my eyes went blurry until I couldn't see clearly out of them. And I felt hot liquid running down my face. I was sicknely dizzy. "CAMBREY!" I heard Landon yell into my ear. It was like he was ten feet from me instead of right next to me. His hot hand was on my back. "Cambrey tell me what happened." He commanded me. I couldn't get enough oxegyn into my lungs to really answer. "Jace he.." I said when I got some oxegyn. He was holding me on his lap now. His hand was stroking my hair. "He what Cambrey? What did that idiot do?" he asked me as I still shook. "I found him kissing Lori at lunch." I said into his shoulder now wet shoulder. He didn't respond. "MOM!" he yelled. I heard four pairs of feet running up the stairs.
"What's wrong with my baby?" she asked. She saw the whole scene. I felt like a total idiot crying and shaking infront of my brothers. I knew it hurt them but I couldn't help it. I made a decision in that moment that Jace was not to be trusted. I can't belive he would actually kiss Lori! He was a jerk.
