Chapter Seventeen

Bryson's Pov

"What's on the agenda today babe?" I asked Marcus, who was now my long distance boyfriend. I never done this before, but so far these two months has been smooth sailing. I was talking to him on the phone as I was walking around campus.

"Uh, nothing much really? Just got to study for a big chemistry test today..I'm horrible at chemistry." He said.

"Hey, How about you send me the worksheet and let me help you, I'm pretty good at chemistry." I said.

"Uhh, that won't be necessary."

"What why?"

"Because someone is already gonna help me." He said.

"Oh so you let someone else's help you but won't let your own boyfriend help you?" I said, sounding a little jealous because I indeed was.

"Don't be like that babe." He said.

"As long as it's not a guy then I'm cool."

"It's not, it's a girl." He chuckled.

"Ok....you do know November is around the corner right?" I said.

"Yeah and?"

"So that means, thanksgiving...I was thinking that maybe I should catch a flight over to New York and come see you."

"Uhhh, you really want to do that? I mean don't you have family of your own?"

"Yeah, If you count a drunk uncle and a crackhead brother, I say what a wonderful thanksgiving." I said sarcastically.

"Aww man, I'm so sorry." Marcus said.

"It's cool, and I understand it's only been two months into our relationship."

"I'm happy you understand." He said, sounding relieved for some strange reason.

"Do you have any siblings?" I asked.

"Yeah, I have a older brother and a sister that's on the way."

"Oh really? What are their names?"

"The one that's on the way is named Normani and my oldest brother's name is........Kairee." He said.

"Oh those are some interesting names."

"Yeah....blame my mom." He chuckled.

"I bet your mom is a sweetheart."

"She is, but don't cross her, or she'll put you in your place."

"Noted."

"You're so stupid." Marcus giggled.

"How?" I smiled from ear to ear.

"I don't know you just are....and cute...you're my little red head devil."

"And you're my little Hershey kiss." I said. He giggled.

"Marcus?"

"Yeah?"

"I-I love you." I said. The other end of the phone got silent for eight seconds.

"Hello?...Hello? Marcus?"

"Hey, I have to go, I'll talk you to later." He said and hung up. I heard the phone beep three times. I looked at my phone and put it in my back pocket. Why did I say that?

What possessed me to say that?

I'm so fucking stupid!!!

Kai's Pov

Two months had passed and a few things had changed. I had gained a shit ton of popularity. Only because I'm Payton James' boyfriend...at least I think that's the case. The football team's girlfriends wanted me to go everywhere they went. From parties, to school events, to sleepovers. I went to one of there sleepovers and gotten so drunk, that when Payton picked me up, I instantly threw up in his car. He was mad at me, but I made up for it.

I'd even go to places where Payton, Bryson and the football team would go. I had fun with them too. The team would talk about girls in the most nastiest way. I had to stand up for what I believed in cause I'm a hardcore feminist, so I put them all in their place. They eventually understood and knows that if I hear them talking in that way again, they were gonna hear it from me. They told me that if someone fucks with me, they got my back, and that's good to hear.

Me and Chandler always hang out! Every other Friday, we go to the coffee shop and just got our usual and gossiped. Chandler knew all the tea that went on in the university, and we just laugh our asses off as other people looked at us crazy.

Me and Vanessa hang out every other Saturday and just make different designs with our clothing in her dorm. Our clothes looked so good and legit, we say that we were gonna be like famous fashion designers or some shit. We were high as hell so we were just talking just to be talkin, but at the same time I never say never.

Every other Sunday our group, which consisted of me, Payton, Chandler, Vanessa, and Bryson. We go to the store and buy a whole bunch of snacks and go to Payton and I's house and eat it as we smoke weed and watch Netflix.

So far I'm living my best life in college.

Currently, I'm in the library studying for this physics test I had today. Payton kept texting me, telling me to come home for lunch, but I told him I can get something from the vending machine. He told me that he was on his way, bringing me lunch.

I heard footsteps come towards my table. I heard them grab a chair and sat where I was. I slowly looked up and it was this guy with dark black hair, with a dirty looking leather jacket. He had a toothpick in his mouth as he was looking straight at me.

"Can I help you with anything?" I asked with an attitude because I haven't studied last night because of Payton bugging me.

"Woah, no need to get all hostile babe." He chuckled.

"Ok, first of all, I'm not you're babe and second I'm trying to study so can you please like...go away." I said looking back down at my textbook.

"I'm sorry, I just figured that you needed some company because...well I saw you from across the library and you looked stressed." He said. I looked up and he smiled.

That smile.

That...sensually pleasing smile.

Looks so familiar.

"Oh my god, you're that guy who smiled at me at the homecoming game." I said.

"I knew if I smiled you would remember."

"I'm surprised I did remember, because it's been two months." I chuckled.

"My names Archie Winchester." He said extending his hand out.

"Ka-"

"Kai Jackson...yeah I know who you are. You're Payton James' boyfriend correct?" He said.

"Yeah." I grinned. He looked at me up and down and bit his lip slightly.

"Did anyone tell you that you have the most prettiest eyes and smile?" He asked.

"Yes." I giggled lightly.

"Really who?"

"My boyfriend." I said bluntly with an attitude and went back to my textbook.

"Ouch! That tone really hurts y'know."

"Well, don't try and flirt with me, knowing I have a boyfriend who loves me."

"Loves?" He laughed. "You got to be kidding me. Payton James is a player. Before you, he was flirting with every boy at campus. For all we know he could have a side piece."

"What are you saying?"

"I'm saying...what makes you so different?...you should go for a guy like me, I'm loyal, trustworthy, honest, will protect you from anyone and anybody." He said.

"Oh like what Payton is doing right now? So what makes you so different? Look, I don't have time for the fuckery right now so it's best that you leave." I said.

"Alright...all I'm saying is that...which will it be? The Bad Boy who will always be loyal? Or a Jock who cheats. Who knows, he might have an ST-"

"Finish that line and I'll pop you in the fucking mouth with this textbook." I said. He had his hands up in defense chuckling.

"What's going on over here huh?" I looked behind Archie and there was Payton with a Chick-fil-A bag and a large lemonade in his hands.

"Oh, nothing me and Kai were just talking about what's on the physics test today, right Kai?" He said. I looked at him and rolled my eyes.

"Well I think you should let my boyfriend study...he has a high GPA to obtain." Payton said. Payton said with a straight face. Archie nodded and walked off.

"Did he bother you babe?" He asked.

"No he just.....anyways, thank you so much for the lunch baby." I said kissing him.

"No problem, I got you a spicy chicken sandwich with melted cheese, and a large waffle fry with three small packs of ranch." He said.

"Ugh! I love you." I said hugging him tightly.

"Well I got to go, good luck on your test." He kissed me.

"Wait where are you going?" I asked.

"No where special. See you at home babe." He said

"Ok...." I said under my breath. He left the library and turned the corner to leave the building. I grabbed my belongings and and walked the opposite way so I can go to the cafeteria to eat and study because I can't have food in the library. Once I stared walking towards the cafeteria, I bumped into someone making my book fall.

"Woah hot stuff, watch where you're going, wouldn't want anyone to get hurt." He said. I looked at him and he had this....devilish smile on his face as he continued walking.

His energy was just so....evil. I brushed it off, grabbed my textbook and continued my way to the cafeteria.
