After school I walked out front and sighed at the fact Dre was no where in sight, he must've been really hurt about everything "School's over you know" I rolled my eyes and faced Cheng "I know, I usually walk home with Dre" I explained shrugging, he nodded "You know your way?" he asked, I nodded "Sorta" I replied, he nodded "Then I'll walk you" he said, I scoffed
"Yah know just cuz I'm your girlfriend at school don't mean I have to act like it outside" I said with attitude, he shrugged "I want to do it anyway" he said walking ahead, I stood there in thought for a moment having a huge inward debate "Take your time" he said looking bored "Fine but don't make a habit of this" I said catching up to him "Anything for you"
he said teasingly, I giggled despite my situation and he threw an arm around my shoulder "Don't get too cocky now" I said, he rolled his eyes "My friends walk this way, I told them you were my girlfriend aswell" he said, I looked at him "So wait who exactly know of our deal?" I asked, he thought for a moment "Just me, you and Liang" he said, I gave him a confused look
"Liang is..." I said waiting for him to answer "My best friend" he said, I nodded in understanding "Fair enough, and what exactly am I supposed to tell my brother?" I asked, he shrugged "Tell him what you want but the deal stands either way" he said, I groaned "You are so irritating" I exclaimed walking a bit faster "It does not matter how much I irritate you Bree, you like it"
he said catching up to me, I gave him a look "How do you know that?" I asked disbelievingly "First day I talked to you, it wasn't hard to tell you liked me" he said, I glared "Doesn't matter if I liked you then, my mind changed after you kicked my brothers ass"
I snapped, he rolled his eyes again "Your brother came at me first and you know it" he said, I sighed knowing he was right "I wouldn't have touched him otherwise" he added, I nodded and we carried on.
We eventually reached my apartment block and I stopped "This is me" I said motioning to the building, he nodded "Nice" he said though I knew he didn't think that "It's better than nothin" I said shrugging, he nodded in agreement "You should go before my brother sees you and hates me even more" I said sadly, he nodded "I'll leave if you kiss me" he said stepping forward, I tensed
"I don't know" I said hesitatingly "Just part of the deal" he whispered coming closer, I sighed "Fine" I said slightly annoyed, he smirked in triumph and leaned in, the kiss was a 10 second peck type thing but I was deffinatly feeling butterflies
"See you in school Bree" he said heading a different way, I stood there for a moment thinking over everything before going into the building.
I got into the apartment and saw my mom cooking "Hey sweety how was school?" she asked cheerfully, I shrugged "It was alright, where's Dre?" I asked putting my cardigan onto the peg "He's sleepin' on the couch"
she replied, I looked over to see my little brother fast asleep "School's got him tired out" mom said chuckling, I sighed and took out one of the blankets I brought with me "You okay Bree?" Mom asked worriedly, I put the blanket over Dre before turning to her "Yeah mom everythings fine" I lied, she nodded and I walked into my room.
