Chapter 7

**A Week Later**

     "Hey Amy wait up!" I hear Sky holler behind me on my way to 6th period.

     "What's up girl?" I say, looking down while zipping up my bag.

     Sky stops right in front of me and places both of her hands on my shoulders, her face looking a little blue, "I need to talk to you about Christian."

     I raised my brow at her, "Ooh no, trouble in paradise already?" I teased.

     "See but that's the thing! There's no paradise anything with him! Everytime I suggest that we 'spend some alone time together', he makes up some lame excuse saying 'sorry I have stuff I gotta take care of.' Like come on! Who doesn't want a piece of this ass!?" She exclaims grabbing onto her own ass and shaking it, "I mean, am I loosing it? Am I not sexy anymore?" She asked, truly concerned.

     I laughed.

     I didn't mean to laugh at her, it just slipped out. I swear! But my laugh earns me a playful punch to the arm by Sky.

     "It's not funny Amy! I'm having a crisis!" She groans and slams her head into my shoulder, ending up laughing at her own self.

     I shake my head still giggling, "Sky, there is nothing wrong with you. Maybe he really is just busy. We bearly know him, we don't know what he does after school or what he has going on in his personal life. Give him a break, you just met him a week ago," I tell her honestly.

     She sighs really loudly and over dramatically, "Wwhyyy must you always have to be right!? You're so lucky to have Justin as a boyfriend, at least he knows what he wants."

     Right... lucky.

     "My ears are ringing ladies, you two wouldn't happen to be talking about me now would you?" Justin asked, coming up behind me and wrapping his arm around me.

     I smiled weakly up at him, "Noooo, Sky was just wanting some relationship advice."

     "Yeah Justin, not everything we talk about has to involve you," Sky teased him.

     Justin chuckles and pulls me in close to him with his arm, leaning down into my ear, "I'm coming over tonight babe, make sure you're ready for me this time," he says lowly, kissing my neck, then pulling away and leaving for class.

     Well then...

     "Ooh and here comes my man now," Sky says excitedly, biting her lips and popping open her red blouse to show just a little more cleavage.

     I rolled my eyes at her and chuckle a little. Not a second later I see Christian come and stand next to Sky.

     "Well how are you two beautiful girls doing?" He asked cheerfully, drapping his arms around both of us pulling us in close.

     God damn he smells so fucking good.

     "Great!" Sky answers, "I was just talking about you with Amy here."

     He turns his head and raises a thick brow at her, "Well I hope you're saying nothing but good things?"

     She nods her head and presses herself closer to him. For a second there, I see a look of disgust cross his black eyes. Mmm he really is weird. Normally guys would walk on fire just so Sky could be that close to them.

     He turns to me, and like magic, his black eyes shined with light, "Hey you, don't we have class together right now?"

     I see Sky frown from his lack of attention towards her. What the fuck is he doing? He has a beautiful girl practically rubbing all up on him, and he is looking at me?

     I have to fix this.

     "Yes we do. But Sky here was just telling me what a gentalmen you've been by walking her to every class. Wouldn't want to break the routine now would you?" I smile at him, and slowly and regretfully take his arm off of me.

     As soon as I did that, I see a splash of pain cross his eyes, but as quickly as I saw it. He covered it up with a breathtaking smile. God, I bet he could get anyone to bend at his will with that smile.

     He looks over at Sky, "Well shall I walk you to class then?" He asked, sounding extremely polite while holding out an arm for her.

     Her hazel eyes widened in excitement as she takes his arm, "Sure!"

     I chuckle a little bit as they walk off. I love to see Sky happy. But seeing her walk away with him just now, somehow felt so wrong. I felt like I should be the one holding his arm instead of her. Good god some friend you are Amy! You have a boyfriend!

     Ugh!

**Last Period**

     "Soooo," Christian starts, smoothly sliding into the seat next to me, "Have anything special planned for the weekend beautiful?"

     I look up to see his eyes were completely focused on my face. I smile sweetly at him, twirling a piece of my hair between my fingers.

     "Mmm other than getting wasted and sleeping with ten men at one time no!No... I don't have any special plans," I tease him, smirking and rolling up my long sleeves.

     He chuckles lightly and shakes his head, then his face turns serious, "Let me come over this weekend."

     I roll my eyes at this boy, "I really don't think that's a good idea."

     He smiles at me, making my heart melt even more, "And why's that? Your boyfriend the jealousy type now? Are you not allowed to hang out with your guy friends?" He asked in a friendly challenging manner.

     Nope, just you.

     I see the teacher come in the class room with a smile on his face. He claps and rubs his hands together loudly getting everyone's attention.

     "Alright everyone take your seats! I have special news for you fine students! As you know the high school fall play is coming up in three weeks," he tells everybody, earning a boo from the entire class.

     Mr.Higman rolls his eyes, "People if you didn't want to be in a play why on earth are you in this drama class?"

     "EVERYTHING ELSE WAS FULL!" A kid named Bryce yells, making everyone chuckle and nod in agreement.

     Mr.Higman rolls his eyes and sighs sadly, "And here I thought it was because you guys love seeing my handsome face everyday," he says heartbrokenly.

     Everyone snickered, quickly recovering Mr.Higman smiles at the class, "This fall play will be filled with drama, betrayal, romance, and blood. Plenty of blood."

     The class started hooting and hollering once the teacher said the word blood.

     "Are you going to be auditioning for a part?" I hear a sexy voice asked in my ear.

     I look over to see Christians face really close to mine, I could smell his minty breath fanning over my face. I fight the urge to run my fingers across his strong jawline and through his long silky chocolate brown hair.

     SNAP OUT OF IT AMY!

     I cleared my throat, "Uhm no, I'm more of a backstage type of girl. But if you audition, then I might think about watching it from the sidelines."

     Did I just really flirt with him!?

     He smirks and lifts a hand up while bringing it close to my face. I could tell he wanted to touch me. I mean I'm not stupid, I know when a guy flirts with me. Some part of me wished he would've touched me.

     Stopping just less than a inch from my face I could feel my heart skip. Instead, he grabs a piece of my hair and started playing with it between his fingers.

     "I will if you will beautiful," he said simply, glancing back and forth between my hair and my eyes.

     He's joking right?

     I laughed a little bit, "Ooh so you're a comedian now uh?"

     The corner of his mouth lifted up into a cute smirk, "When it comes to you beautiful, I never joke," he says looking at the piece of hair between his fingers.

     Amy what are you doing!? Think of Justin.... fuck that ain't working so think of Sky! She would be heartbroken if she saw what I was doing right now.

     I squint my eyes at him, "How come you're playing so hard to get with Sky?"

     His eyes snapped back up to mine as he let's my hair fall between his fingers. He sits up straighter, and turns his head back to the teacher. My question must've seemed to make him uncomfortable.

     "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable Chris. It's just, Sky and I were wondering why you haven't even made a move on her?" I tell him honestly.

     He closed his eyes and sighs frustratingly, "Look, your friend is cute and all but I'm not looking for a relationship right now. I don't do relationships, I fuck," he said, then looks at me and sighs, "Now if your friend wants to get dicked down, I'm your guy. But nothing more, nothing less."

     Well then.

     I stared at him with my mouth slightly hanging open, shocked by his answer and sudden coldness in his voice.

     When the final bell rings Chris wasted no time and was out the door before I could even stand.

     I guess, once a player always a player.
