By his words.
“We place rules here and rules are not meant to be broken. It doesn’t matter if this was a ‘mistake’. It has already been done and caused damages. If you burn a piece of paper, you won’t get it back.” Principal Xavier mocked the word mistake, as if not believing our words.
Then he clears his throat which drew my attention. His eyes are already on me, watching me like a hawk. “Judging by my grandson’s reputation for always teasing you,” He turns to give Aiden an annoyed glare and then turns to face me again.
“I have to ask to be safe. Did Aiden force you, Sophie?” My heart stopped. And suddenly my mouth had gone dry.
“Grandfather! How can you ask such an outrageous question like that? Of course not!” Aiden growled lowly. I could never force anyone to do what they don’t want to. I would never force myself on anyone.” Principal Xavier looks annoyed and gave Aiden a pointed look. “You forced her to continue watching porn.” He said blatantly
His words had a raging blush settling on my cheeks. Oh God. He saw that one too.
“And Sophie has a voice of her own, especially judging by the video.’ Principal Xavier said with a raised brow. “Can you not answer for yourself Sophie?”
“You seemed quite vocal yesterday? No?”
I spurted in shock and humiliation, shyly looking over at Aiden who stared back at me blankly.
Sweeping my gaze back to principal Xavier, 1 stuttered out. “N-o, he hadn’t forced me in-to doing any thing.” I shifted in my seat, praying that would get out of here soon.
Principal Xavier looked at me pointedly. “Which one are you referring to? It was clear he forced you to rewatch your porn videos. Or no he didn’t force you to have sex with him?”
I squirmed on the seat and nervously started to shake my foot. “No. He didn’t force me into having sex with him.”
Principal Xavier nods and then sighs.” You two broke the rules
Will get punished? Suspended? Expelled?” I rushed out, leaning forward with my hands gripping the chair handles tightly.
Aiden snorted and again tries to cover it up with a laugh. “Miss Bell let me finish. Principal Xavier said calmly.
I awkwardly nodded and fixed myself back on the chair, my fingers crossing in hope that I wouldn’t get expelled.
Principal Xavier looks between Aiden and me and grumbled, “You two will serve two weeks of detention after school for two hours.”
Aiden’s pov
I watch Sophie scramble to get out of the room quickly as soon as grandfather dismissed her
I’m left staring at her back and fighting the urge to look lower. She always had a pretty perky ass.
“Aiden. Sergio won’t like that you’re constantly getting into trouble. You’re going to inherit the company one day. One bad thing on your record and that’s it. You’re done.” Grandfather warned, drawing my attention, and rose from his seat
Sergio was my mother’s dad and the Ceo and chairman of Harrington.co, a very well known multi-billion dollar business around the world.
Since mom didn’t want to inherit the business, it will be passed down to me.
Mom and Sergio were not really on good terms, especially when mom went on and married dad who was of lower class’. Since then, their relationship had been strained and not many people knew that we were related at all.
“When have I ever done a bad thing grandfather?” I asked, lifting my brow and crossing my hands over my chest.
He raised a brow, looking so much like his son who was my father. But I suppose I should say his son looked so much like him.
“You’ve been in more trouble this week than you’ve been in prior weeks before Aiden. When are you going to stop teasing the girl and tell her how you feel about her?” He sighed, walking around the desk and coming to stand just before me.
I looked away. “I don’t look at her in any way
“I’m your grandfather Aiden. I also know love when I see it. Quit teasing her and just tell her before it’s too late. She won’t be here forever nor will she wait for you to man up.” He warned.
My jaw ticked. I hate it when he read straight through me. It made it impossible to hide things from him.
“I can’t. She hates me.” I grumble.
Sophie Bell hates my guts, always have. There was no way confessing I liked her would have her change her perspective on me. To her, 1 was a spoiled brat who was way too ugly and obnoxious. At least that’s what I remember her saying when I was about to approach her.
Grandfather snorted, amused clearly. “She hates you enough to have sex with you?”
I winced, turning away from him completely. “That was different. You heard her anyway, it was a mistake.”
“But it wasn’t for you Aiden. It’s easier to let out your emotions than to have them build up. You can’t tease her for the rest of her life. You two are seniors, only a few months until you might not see each other again.” He advised.
His words had my heart throbbing painfully. I didn’t want to think about not seeing her again in a few months.
“I can’t.” I snapped, walking away.
“Why not?’ He asked behind me. I stop and sighed. Looking at him over my shoulder i confessed. “Because I don’t want to get hurt.” *seven years ago peeked behind the pillar, my eyes falling on the pretty new girl. I smiled. Sophie Bell. Even her name was pretty.
She was so cute sitting alone and playing with the blades of the grass. I should introduce myself. Or at least say hi.
My heart starts to slam in my chest as I get ready to move away from the pillar and make my way to her.
But I stop quickly when another girl who I recognize as Mila runs over to her. The two seemed to know each other as they began to chat.
Maybe it wouldn’t be bad to introduce myself now. It would save me from stuttering with having to be in her presence alone. With someone else there, maybe I’d not make a fool out of myself. Letting out a breath, I started making my way over to the two girls. But I stop when I’m of hearing range.
“I think you have an admirer, Sophie.” Mila giggled.
“What? No I don’t.” Sophie shyly squirms and tries to use picking the grass as a distraction.
“Of course you do! Aiden Xavier couldn’t keep his eyes off you the entire class. He literally looked like he was already planning the wedding.” Mila laughed.
I felt my heart start to pound when I heard my name being mentioned.
“The boy with blue eyes, brown shaggy hair, who sat behind me?” Sophie asked shyly. Their backs were facing me so I wasn’t sure what her face portrayed Was she blushing? Did she look annoyed? Was she passive?
Eavesdropping wasn’t really my thing, but I wanted to hear more of Sophie’s sweet voice. Especially when she was talking about me.
“Oh my God. Do you have a crush on Aiden Xavier?”
I felt my heart start to pound even faster in my chest and my palms began to sweat.
“What! No!” Sophie denied which made my heart pang in hurt.
“Then why are you blushing?!” Mila teased and shouldered her playfully.
“I don’t like him okay? He’s ugly and creepy. Besides he looks dumb.” Sophie rushes out in one breath.
I staggered back, feeling my throat hurt.
“And he also looks like a spoiled brat. I don’t like spoiled obnoxious brats.” She continued.
“Whoa!” Mila laughed. “All of that by just staring at him for the first time?’
Sophie shrugged. “I’m a good judge of character. I don’t have to speak to a person to know them. One look and I can already tell. Aiden isn’t my type. Mila continued to laugh but Sophie remained silent.
Sophie’s words hurt me. So, so much that i felt tears brim my eyes.
“Well, it’s probably a good thing you don’t. Most of the girls our grade have a huge crush on him, you’d have a lot of competition.” Mila giggled Sophie took a while to answer. I don’t see what they see in him but I don’t care, I don’t like him.’ Sophie shrugged and I thought I heard enough
I turned around to leave and grit any teeth in anger when the two started to laugh. They were laughing at me, I was sure.
