chapter 53

“Have a fantastic day ” I got out of the car and walked to the school, I was counting my steps to stall, I wasn’t ready for people to start talking, they would say things like ′OMG she pierced her ears’, ‘is that an industrial piercing’, ‘she knows that is against the dress code right’, ‘Daring enough for the principal’s office’ and for the haters ‘she just wanted to drag attention’

I spotted Chloe and Zoe at the far end of the parking lot talking to Wyatt, whilst waiting for me at I guess, Here it goes, I specially changed into a hoodie for this purpose. I pulled it over my head and ducked my face

“Winter” Wyatt called out, FUCK YOU. I slowly turned to them, they had questioning looks on their face, not today come on why is karma being a bitch today. I hadn’t even done anything wrong. You might be thinking, Winter it is just a piercing but if they saw this they would ask questions and I was way too hungover during breakfast this morning I forgot to think of an explanation for this thing.

“Hey, guys, I didn’t see you there”

“Is that the reason you had your hoodie on your face?” they asked simultaneously

“Uhh, how are you guys”

“What is up with you” Chloe reached for my head

“Do you have cancer, you went for chemotherapy and your hair is falling out, O honey” Zoe pulled me to her chest, there was a high level of intimacy between her breast and my cheek. I pulled out of her grasp awkwardly, not only because I was already so close to being her milk pumping machine but because my piercing was pressing against her and she might realize.

“Wait do you seriously have cancer,” she asked with her eyebrows furrowed together”

“Zoe doesn’t be such a negative person she does not have cancer, You don’t have cancer right?”

“I do not have cancer guys, I had a huge hangover and if I see the sun I might just explode from maximum headache” I realized everything wrong with what I just said the second it left my mouth. They both gasped

“Now is my time to X” Wyatt walked away giving me a brief good luck thumb which earned a glare from both his girlfriends

“You went to the club without us”

“No... yes but I was drunk before I even started drinking”

“I cannot even look at you” Chloe and Zoe looked away and folded their arms “by the way that color does bad things to your skin” I don’t know if that was them trying to be mean or they wanted to be good best friends and warn me that I was looking for laughter if I walked into school with this hoodie on. I pulled them both to a secluded a little far from all the other people and pulled my hood down exposing my ear. They widened their eyes and squealed

“You got an ear-piercing” they exclaimed “wow” they inspected it “We never thought your dad will let you in a million years

“He doesn’t know, Xavier got this for me”

“Xavier, as in big Xavier” is that his nickname now, big Xavier, that is very stupid, but he is a big boy if you know what I mean, shut up

“Yes as in... big” I cannot believe I just said that “Xavier”

“Oh he is such a rebel, I want him”

“You can’t have him” I whisper- yelled

“OOOH someone is in love” they cooed in my ear “Xavier and Winter sitting on a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G, Xavier and Winter sitting in a tree H-A-V-I-N-G-S-E-X” that was a little bit stretched

“H-A-V-I-N-G-S-E” I rolled my eyes in realization “you guys are fools” I pulled the hoodie over my head again to hide it from all straying eyes in my direction

“So you let him get you a piercing, he must be extremely god in bed for you to break all your rules like that”

“He got one too, and we were drunk” I was drunk, only me.

“Where, on his nipple that would be sexy and you can tug on it when you are riding”

“On his nose, I wonder why you guys are always so horn I think three people should make each other happy, should I join the party” they smacked my head

“You are very mad,” they said and that hurt my heart more than usual, I laughed

“You did your homework right because I have a feeling you just hung out with Xavier all weekend”

“I did my homework” I said

I bumped into Alec, and my heart for some reason stopped when I saw the glare he had on his face for me, he walked around me. I totally forgot about him I did not expect to see him right before lunch. Now I have lost my appetite. I chased after him and blocked his path

“Get out of my way Winter” oh the torture of hearing the way he pronounced my name. With so much venom and anger, like he had been doing nothing but stabbing my picture with darts on his door all week

“Hey”

“Don’t give me that Winter” he tried walking away and I blocked his path

“Alec, I forgot about it”

“Okay”

“I was caught up on Saturday I had a lot of work to do and it slipped my mind”

“I said it is fine”

“You are clearly still mad” I accused him

“What do you expect me to be, I am not your dog that you feed I can get angry at you when I want to be”

“Alec?” I gave him pleading eyes

“Winter, I am not one to swear, but you fucking pissed me off when you didn’t show up I felt like a fool”

“I am sorry” I yelled

“You don’t get to yell at me, you are the faulty person. I sat down there waiting for you and you were having fun with HIM”

“You don’t know that”

“Fine who were you with” I kept my mouth shut, I was with Xavier and I did not have any lie to give him

“Just what I thought, I am done” he walked away and I frowned deeply. WHAT HAVE I DONE
