Chapter ten:

I stare at him dumbfounded. Was this seriously happening right now?

"I-uh.." I search for words to respond to him but I couldn't.

Think, Blair, think! I scold myself.

he raises an eyebrow at me, clearly amused. "Cat got your tongue?"

I scowl at him. "You know if you weren't such an asshole I wouldn't be in this situation."

"Oh please," he snorts. "Plus I wouldn't be such an asshole if you weren't so damn annoying."

"I doubt that," I bite back. "What about Clara huh? You were literally yelling at her in the hallway don't you dare try to deny it. What was that about?"

He shrugs. "She's been throwing herself at me since I stepped foot into school. It's disgusting really."

I glare at him. "So? You don't even know her? She found you charming, if anything you should be flattered!" I throw back at him trying my best to defend my best friend even though I don't believe my own words.

"You're unbelievable," he mutters. "I can't believe I'm even having this argument with you."

"Better unbelievable than a jerk huh?"

His head snaps at me suddenly. "You don't even know me. Just because I don't like you doesn't make me a fucking jerk so just back the fuck off. God you're so infuriating I can't believe someone as hot as Nicola can even be friends with you." He snaps.

Silence.

That was all there was. I look down at my feet trying to hide the tears forming at my eyes. God I hate myself for being this weak.

His words sting. I want to run away and never come back. I don't even know why this hurts me so much anyway. Of course Nicola is gorgeous and it really does come as a surprise that someone as beautiful as her would want to be friends with some lame girl like me and I know that. But coming from him makes it hurt way more than it should.

He's a jerk remember. Who cares what he thinks.

"Jeez you're such a baby calm the fuck down." He snarls.

I look back at him pushing back any tears that ought to come out. "Get out."

"Excuse me?"

"Get. Out." I snarl back at him.

"You do realise this is my house right?" He raises an eyebrow.

"I don't fucking care just get out!" I yell.

Thankfully, that seems to do it. I watch as he leaves and I walk behind him closing the door since he couldn't do it himself.

"Hey honey.." the door opens revealing Molly. She looks at me sympathetically. "I heard the yelling earlier and I figured I didn't want to push you to come down for dinner. I know we've just met but would you like to talk about it?

I smile at her. It was really sweet of her to ask and a really nice gesture but how does she expect me to tell all the terrible things her son has said or done to me. I'm not a snitch. Especially not to his mom.

"Thank you so much for the offer. The food was lovely, thank you for sending it up and I am so sorry I didn't come down it was completely rude of me. I think I just need some time to think if that's okay."

She nodded. "Of course, of course! Just one thing though, sweetie. He's had a rough past and it's hard for him to open up to knew people. Don't judge him too quickly." She sends me a warm smile that I can't help but mirror back.

"Okay. Thank you!"

"Goodnight," she calls out softy.

"Goodnight."

Kinda wish he wasn't such an ass :( sorry I'm late I've been on vacation!
