Chapter thirteen: Making Him Jealous
"It sounds like someone has a crush." Beatrice teased Juliet; she had explained, lately, what she had been feeling about Jimmy. Juliet's cheeks turned into a bright shade of red.
"No, I don't." Beatrice patted her friend's back.
"Listen, coming from another girl's perspective… it sounds like a total crush." Juliet looked down at the rat Beatrice had been dissecting. Suddenly, she felt a paper wad hit the back of her head. Turning around, she saw that same blond hair boy that sat next to her; usually.
"What?" she snapped at him. The corner of his mouth lifted as he crossed his arms over his chest.
"Nothing, pauper." All she wanted to do is pop him one in the jaw.
"Did you throw that paper wad?" His buddy turned from the dead rat and glared at her.
"Look, pauper, we want nothing to do to you so stop talking." He sounded gay, Juliet thought to herself as she cocked her head to the side.
"Sorry post-op." she turned around and again—another paper wad hit her head.
"What?" she asked impatiently.
"First of all, I'm not a 'post-op' as you put it and secondly, Vance, the greaseball, threw the first one." Juliet snorted and turned to the boy that the gay boy so kindly pointed out.
"What do you want?" she was getting tired of this game.
"It true you Trent's girl?" Juliet coughed and looked at her nails; not very enthused by this conversation.
"Is it any of your business?" Juliet asked rudely as she glared at the boy. His auburn hair was slicked back by so much grease she could see where he didn't wash his hair. He also had a wide nose.
"Yea, it kinda is. Ya' see Johnny was askin' 'bout you and I thought ta' ma' self 'why not ask this chick'?" Juliet looked at him with a quirked eyebrow. He needs to learn how to talk properly.
"Uh, sure, I'm Trent's girl. Why not?" Juliet said, flipping her raven hair over her shoulder. As she watched Beatrice cut out it's heart, the blond prep rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
./…\.
"Hold on now!" Juliet yelled at Trent, "you are goin' 'round tellin' people we're an 'item' and you didn't even ask if I wanted to be your girlfriend." She was causing a scene that really wasn't needed. Trent pulled her off to the side and stared at the angry girl in front of him.
"Oh come on Juliet, wanna be my girlfriend?" Juliet crossed her arms over her chest and bit her tongue; this was the perfect situation.
"Sure." Trent's mouth dropped as he nearly smacked her.
"All that commotion and you said 'yes'?" Juliet shook her head as she walked away.
"Wait," he yelled after her, "wanna have some lunch with me and my friends?" Juliet had plans with Jimmy and Petey, but why not? She needs to meet her boyfriend's friends.
./…\.
"That's Russell. He's the leader of the bullies' clique." Trent said, pointing to an over-sized boy with red hair. Juliet nodded and listened quietly.
"Over there's Davis; the guy Jimmy and you practically beat up. Ethan, Tom, Troy and Wade." There weren't many bullies in this school as she thought; not a lot were good looking either. Suddenly, the big guy—Russell, came over.
"Russell want Trent to introduce Russell." Trent patted the big lugs shoulder and pushed Juliet forward.
"This is Juliet, my girlfriend." Juliet waved at the bigger man—she was intimidated by his size.
"Hi Russell." He smiled and walked off to the darker skinned guy.
"Uh, does he always talk in third person?" Juliet asked Trent. He nodded and pulled her away from the clique.
"He isn't the brightest crayon in the coloring box." Juliet smiled at his comparison as she followed obediently.
"Why is she with that goof!" Jimmy screamed as he heard the news about Juliet and Trent being a couple. Petey flipped threw a magazine and shrugged his shoulders.
"I dunno know. Maybe this is a sign…" Petey said, putting down the magazine.
"A sign?" he said, looking to Petey disbelievingly.
"Yea," Petey patted the seat on the couch next to him, "maybe that means you two weren't meant to be together." Petey finished quietly.
"Hold on, I never told you I liked her." Petey smiled, almost evilly.
"Well, you didn't need too. Even the cheerleaders saw threw you and her." Jimmy looked at him, confused as hell.
"What do ya' mean Petey?" Petey smiled again and signed.
"Oh Jimmy, you are pretty stupid aren't you?" Jimmy glared at his friend, his stare full of anger.
"What?"
"Well you see Jimmy…"
"So you really like me?" Juliet asked, poking Trent in the center of his chest. Trent laughed lightly as they walked around.
"Yea, what's there not to like?"
"A lot of things."
"Like what?" Trent asked, wrapping an arm around her waist.
"Well for one thing, my father."
"Seth? Well, he's not you." Juliet smiled lightly, but knew in her heart he didn't mean it.
"Yea, thanks."
"So you think she's using Trent?" Jimmy asked, concluding about what Petey was saying.
"Yeah, to get to you… so you hurt him."
"No offense Petey, but you sound like Gary." Petey cringed at the name.
"I do not!" he said rather loudly as he crossed his arms over his chest.
"Uh, whatever Petey—," Jimmy was cut off by Petey's soft lips against his own.
