Chapter 43
Tanya Denali's breath tasted like onions and stale Cheetos. The combination was unpleasant to say the least.
I flew away from her and pressed myself against a door. "What was that?"
"You knew the truth! I always knew you could see right through me with those beautiful brown eyes," she stated.
"No." Hello there, Single White Female.
"This is destiny."
"This is delusional and bordering on a one way ticket to crazy town," I tried to intimidate her with my glare. I don't think it made an effect due to it being so close to my normal facial expression. "All aboard the lunatic train."
"You're so adorable." Tanya Denali moved in closer. I slipped away.
"I'm not even close to adorable. When I grow old it's destiny for me to be a curmudgeon with lots of cats and perhaps a large mole on the side of my nose with dark hairs growing out of it." I dodged her advances again. "You tried to stuff me in a locker, trip me in the hall..."
"You only hurt the ones you love!" She almost grabbed my elbow.
I swerved next to the stalls. "No. I don't agree with that one bit."
She huffed and puffed. Tanya Denali was surprisingly out of shape for a cheerleader. She wheezed, "It's an expression."
"A horrible one." I tried to dodge her by jumping on the counter with the sinks. "I thought you like my kid?"
"Edward?" She looked confused, as I nodded in the affirmative. "It's always been you! Kiss me!"
With that reeking breath? Never! Oh and the fact I was dating Baseball Boy.
I slid off the counter, out the door and into my boy's arms. "Save me."
"What'a wrong?" He held me tight.
"That whacked out cheerleader attacked me."
"She touched you?"
"With her lips." I grabbed his hair and pulled him close. "I'm scared."
He looked her and kissed my head. "She's mine."
Whoa there, Mr. Possessive.
"That remains to be seen," Tanya said with a scowl.
Sure it was. I just told her that I wasn't interested. These people needed to stop with the selective hearing.
"There shall be a duel!" My kid exclaimed.
Emmett who had found his Trailer Trash Barbie pulled away from making out to exclaim, "Huzzah!"
Oh well. It might be funny.
