Again ignores him.

As expected, Aiden settles himself beside me and looks at me. And goes right to pestering me. “Pssst.”

I gritted my teeth and ignored his call.

“Puppy.” He called again this time placing his foot on my desk. He was trying to get my attention the entire day and had not succeeded.

I wasn’t going to let him now.

I turned my head away and ignored him completely, not even telling him to move his foot off the desk

“Are you ignoring me puppy?” He asked in amusement, purposely crossing his foot over the other.

When he realized I wouldn’t budge he stops pestering me. Mr. Gray fell asleep halfway and when it was time for detention to be done, he magically seemed to have awaken. “See you tomorrow kids.” He said opening and closing the door.

I shook my head when he rushes out of the room without so much as a glance our way.

sighed and moved off the chair. My hand reached out for my bag. But as I tugged it, Aiden grabs a hold of the other strap. Preventing me from taking my bag.

“Let go of my bag Aiden.” I grumble while tugging the bag.

He doesn’t let it go. Only stand up and snorted. “And she speaks.”

“Don’t be an ass Aiden. I have no time for games right now. I have somewhere to be.” I grumble under my breath.

“Somewhere as in with that stupid boy Parson what’s his name?” He gritted out.

“He’s not good enough for you Sophie.”

I turned to him fully, angry that he was still giving me shit about Carson when he was parading with Rena. Just last night he had been dancing with her and trying to make me jealous. “And you are?” I raised a brow in mockery

My eyes turned like steel as I glared at him for all the wrong reasons. One being that I couldn’t stop thinking about him. And another was not being able to stop my heart frorn reacting to his closeness. “You’re nothing but a bully Aiden’ Ignitted under my breath

Carson walked around the desk until he was standing beside me, so close that I could feel his heat. I shivered. This time it was a good shiver.

His stormy eyes narrowed down on me and I squirmed ‘That word. You always say that damn word puppy

He takes a step forward until his front was pressing against mine. I willed my legs to move but they stayed frozen and still

Sophie, Aiden says softly.

I fixed my panty while still cursing and grabbed my bag. “Fuck. “I cried and run out of the room before Aiden could even put his jeans back on.

I can’t believe I did that. Especially when I had yet to break up with Carson. I had just cheated on him. I had to tell him. I can’t lie to him anymore. But little did Sophie know, that Carson had witnessed everything.

Carson’s pov

I tapped my fingers on the steering wheel while staring at the entrance of the school. I was waiting for Sophie to walk through those doors

I wanted to drive her home and ask her for her forgiveness. I knew I was an ass for what I said to her. She had trusted me and I blew it. And boy did I pay for it. She completely ignored me the entire day and I felt so damn awful.

I wanted her pretty eyes on me and wanted to feel her hand in my hand again. I didn’t want her to give up on us just because of some stupid words I hadn’t meant at all.

Honestly, I didn’t know what came over me to even tell her those words. I guess was just frustrated she was always treating me coldly when I was her boyfriend and Aiden wasn’t.

I wasn’t stupid to not have noticed how she looked at him and how he looked at her. It was clear as day and anyone who didn’t catch the glimpse of it was blind as a bat.

I groan and scratched at my scalp. I didn’t want her to break up with me, I think what we had was special. And maybe given more time to woo her, would result in her falling for me and forgetting about him. Aiden Xavier was a huge brick wall between us and I was determined to do anything to get rid of him soon.

But I’ll not focus on that now. I’ll focus on Sophie and how I’d get back into her life. I didn’t want things to end how they did, I refuse to quit.

I continued to tap my fingers on the steering wheel, waiting for her to walk out those doors. I hoped I’d surprise her in a good way and I’d hope she would notice my efforts in trying to reconcile.

It was now a few minutes after the hour five and there were no signs of Sophie. Even the detention teacher, Mr. Gray had walked out, though I’d more so as say it as he rushed out of those doors with a skip in his steps.

The man looked happy, ecstatic even to be out of the school. I shook my head in amusement when he practically run to his beat up blue car and raised his head to the sky.

I had an inkling he was thanking the heavens for getting him out of there.

Mr. Gray soon leaves and I keep my gaze on the empty spot he left.

What could she possibly be doing that was taking her so long to get out? I thought in frustration.

Aiden was inside there too, I knew so because he hadn’t walked out.

I didn’t want that sleaze bag to have a chance with Sophie. I didn’t even want him to talk to her.

I shook my head. I don’t see what she sees in that guy. He had been nothing but mean to her with every chance he got. He was a bully. Plain and simple

Then why was Sophie pining over a guy like that?

I sighed heavily and practically ripped the seat belt off me. I had to see what was taking Sophie so damn long to get out of the school. The teacher had already lett, so why was she still inside? Unless, Aiden was bullying her again

An annoyed breath filtered out of my mouth and i grilled my teeth. If I see her getting bullied by him, I’d lose my temper. If it comes to it, 10

get another broken nose for her again.

I opened the car door and stared at Joe the security who walked out of the doors and made his way to the back of the building.

I wasn’t sure if I was allowed to be in the school after hours and especially since I wasn’t one of the kids who were in detention. But it was a good thing Joe wasn’t here to see me,

I closed the door and quickly made my way to the double doors. I looked at where Joe walked to just in case he came back and when the coast was clear I entered the school The detention room. I hummed as I looked around

There was once I dropped her off in that room and i knew it was way at the back

But the closer I got to the detention room, the louder moans and grunts whipped through my ears and i froze

What the fuck?

My heart on its own started pounding in my chest.

Why the hell do the moans sound like Sophie?

And why the fuck do the grunts sound like fucking Aiden Xavier?!

Anger, hot anger had blinded my vision as I continued my way to the room, my hands fisted at my sides.

My steps were firm, angry and I had never felt so blinded by rage before. A part of me wanted to believe that it was just my mind playing tricks on me. That Sophie wasn’t moaning and Aiden wasn’t grunting in pleasure.

But as I am inches from the door and the sounds grew even more. That little part of me died out when I carefully took a glance through the little squared glass on the door that made it visible for anyone to see inside the classroom and outside.

My heart drops painfully when my eyes pin on them…..fucking.

Aiden was taking her like his life depended on it and she was clutching on to him like he was her pillar.

Rage. Anger. Fury. Disappointment. Betrayal.

She had been ignoring me the entire day, hadn’t even said a word to me. She could’ve voiced out her anger for all I cared, I had just wanted her to speak to me. To say at least one damn word.
