CHAPTER ELEVEN: TATTLE TELL

Adam's POV

I growled silently under my breath as the warning bell rang through the halls. Now I only had two minutes to grab my books and get to Biology. This was just perfect.

Well at least I shared my next class with Bianca. She had a way of making me smile a little bit when my day was going bad.

Fiona was still a lot better at making me smile though.

I felt kind of bad knowing that I would be spending my day at school fooling around with Bianca while Fiona curled herself into a ball in Clare's guest bedroom.

Plus tonight would be my last real night with Fiona until spring break in March.

Maybe I should've given Bianca the old boot after all. If I'd just ignored her seductive and tempting ways, I wouldn't be feeling sick every time I kissed Fiona. And I wouldn't want to shoot myself every time I swore my love to her.

Because I was too busy undressing Bianca with my eyes. But what Bianca and I shared was nothing compared to what me and Fiona had.

I only lusted after Bianca. Fiona and I loved each other. We didn't have to share a steamy make out session everyday to prove that.

"Hey, sexy," someone whispered in my ear from behind. Bianca tied her arms around my chest while breathing in my ear. "How was your winter break? And how's that infamous princess you love so much?"

I rolled my eyes before slamming my locker shut. I pried Bianca's hands off of me. "I love how you're so subtle with your seducing ways," I commented over my shoulder.

Bianca grinned wider while trotting after me. She easily caught up with my strutting pace. I felt her hand grip mine as she slid closer to me.

"I didn't ask you what you loved about me, Torres."

"I know," I responded without breaking my gaze from what was in front of me, "but do you really care about what I did over my break?"

She gave a crooked smile and said, "More than anything in the world."

I looked over at her taunting brown eyes. She smiled a bit wider when she finally grabbed my attention.

Suddenly, Bianca pulled me to a stop and gripped my hand while staring at me seductively. She stepped a little closer, but I didn't pull away. I stood where I was while staring at her expectantly.

It didn't take more than three seconds for her to lean closer and press her lips against mine. She was gifting me with one of those kisses that always left us yearning for more from each other.

We usually tried to save these types of kisses for after school. It was easier to want more when we were alone because we could actually get more. There wasn't much you could get out of a kiss at school besides a couple hungry moans.

Well, unless you actually went so far as to go to the boiler room. That wasn't really my style though.

An eager moan escaped the back of Bianca's throat while she pressed herself against my body. She gripped my hands a little tighter. My arms hung beside my sides while as my lips continued to move with Bianca's.

Bianca suddenly retracted herself from me while looking at her feet and smiling to herself. I was still breathing heavy from the kiss. She slowly glanced up at me while still wearing that mischievous smirk.

"You wanna take this somewhere else? Or do you prefer the hallway?"

"Bianca, you know I'm not going any further with this. You can wait until after school," I lectured.

I turned on my heel to walk away, but she pulled me back by my arm. I inhaled out of annoyance and watched her expectantly.

"What now?" I questioned her.

"We both know that we aren't continuing anything after school today. You've gotta spend your time with precious Princess Fiona." There was a taunting edge to her voice that made me tick a little bit in my stomach. She really knew my pressure points better than most.

"Fiona's leaving in the morning. I really don't see where you're going with this…"

Bianca cocked her head to the side. She looked annoyed at first, but then she shrugged and broke her gaze from me. Her brown eyes seemed focused on a bulletin board tacked against the wall.

"I just figured that we could have some fun before you have to go back to Fiona," she spoke softly.

My brows stayed furrowed while she bit her lip. But my face slowly relaxed when I realized that she was serious. She opened her mouth to say something else, but I interrupted her.

I cut her off by pressing my mouth against hers in an ecstasy-filled kiss. Bianca's eyes were still opened from the shock of the sudden mouth contact with mine. But they slowly closed as the sound of my books hitting the floor echoed through the empty hallway.

My now empty hands laced their way around her waist while her slender fingers tugged at the light brown locks of my hair. I had the advantage of her mouth being open when I kissed her.

Our tongues had intertwined almost instantly. Now she was leaned back slightly while pulling my body over hers. I was holding onto her hips now as if they were going to stop me from sinking through the floor.

Her teeth bit down on my tongue without warning. I yelped at the sudden pain and jumped away from her. I stuck my bleeding tongue against the roof of my mouth while frowning at her in confusion.

"What the hell?" I asked while rubbing my tongue on the inside of my cheeks.

"Did I do something?" she asked in confusion.

"You bit my tongue!"

"Oops," she apologized softly, "I guess I got a little carried away."

My eyebrows rose as she stepped closer to me again. I watched her carefully as she leaned closer and kissed my cheek. The feel of her lips brushing against my cheek made me invincible against the throbbing pain in my tongue.

Bianca pulled away from my cheek slowly and looked me up and down with ease. "I'll see you in class," was all she said before brushing past me and walking to Biology.

I didn't even turn around to watch her saunter down the hall. I was still thinking about the little encounter we'd had, when suddenly a familiar voice sounded off to the side.

"So is this why you've been acting so weird lately?" the curly-haired girl asked.

My eyes widened before I quickly leaned down to grab the books I'd dropped while I'd been in the little trance with Bianca.

"Clare," I said breathlessly, "what are you doing here?"

"I asked you a question first."

A frown slowly grew on my face while my body began to lose its tenseness. "And I asked you a question second."

"I saw you with Bianca," she finally said. Clare crossed her arms while stepping closer to me. I stayed still.

"Would you care to explain why you're cheating on Fiona with that slut?" she asked as she came to a stop about two feet away from me.

"You wouldn't understand." I turned around to start walking, but Clare's voice pulled me back.

"Yeah, you're probably right. Not many people would understand why you'd hurt someone like Fiona for a girl like Bianca."

I turned my head a little so that I could watch Clare. Her eyes showed she was angry, but she also looked a little confused and hurt by what she'd seen. I wish I could tell her that what she'd just seen between me and Bianca had been a mirage.

"I'll see you later, Clare," I finally told her before turning my head and making my way to Biology.

All I could do was hope that she wouldn't open her big mouth and tell Fiona about everything that she'd seen in the hallway just now. I wouldn't blame her if she did.
