Chapter 18 Here comes trouble.
Kassidy POV
5:30 came way to soon. I raised my head a little and snuggled into Killian's neck.
"Sick day?" I asked.
"Don't you think it would look funny, if both of us were out of school?" He mumbled only half awake.
"Good point. you go. I'll stay." I said. He turned and propped himself up on his elbow and gave me a sleepy smile. I returned his smile and threw the blanket over my head.
"Its too early." I groaned. "Why on earth do you get up at 5:30??"
"Because I have to be at the school earlier than you do." He replied and sat up.
"I'm going to get ready. I'll start some coffee." He said.
"Yup.." I mumbled struggling to keep my eyes open.
I didn't even realize that I had fallen asleep again until the blankets were yanked off of me.
"Wake up." Killian said. I groaned and pulled the pillow over my face.
"You are impossible." He said with a laugh and pulled the pillow off of my face.
"Come on, get up." He said. I sat up reluctantly. He handed me a cup of coffee. I took the coffee and sipped at it.
"I have to go. But I'll see you there." He said and kissed me on the cheek.
"Is that all you got?" I asked with a smirk and set the coffee on the nightstand beside me. He leaned in and pressed his lips to mine nipping my bottom lip with his teeth as he pulled away.
"Well. I'm awake now." I said.
"Good. See you at School. Miss Cole" He said and walked out of the room.
I sat in first period apparently with a big smile on my face because Ruby nudged my shoulder.
"What are you so happy about?" She grinned.
"Nothing. I just...had a good morning." I said and shrugged.
"Good morning, with who?" She asked and arched an eyebrow.
"No one, I can't have a good morning all by myself?" I asked.
"With that grin on your face? No." She said and smirked.
"Girls!" Mr. Whale said.
"Sorry." We both said at the same time and tried not to laugh. I heard the classroom door squeak open. I didn't think anything of it. Probably just a late student.
"Can I help you?" Whale asked.
"This is Biology right?"
I froze.
You have got to be kidding me.
I turned my head slowly and looked the devil himself in the eyes.
"I'm Sorry I'm late. I'm new. My names Dylan." He said.
He was actually here. In my school. In my class. Why? Ruby put her hand on mine.
"Breathe." She said. "Don't let him win."
"Is everything okay Miss Cole?" Whale asked.
"Y...yes. Its fine." I said and looked away from Dylan and to my text book.
It was lunch time and I sat at my normal spot, with Ruby, Emma, and Belle. Dylan had been in all of my classes so far and I was a nervous wreck.
"Hes so creepy." Belle said. "How are you holding up?" She asked me.
"Okay. I guess." I said. I felt a hand on my shoulder and my skin started crawling.
"If you like that hand, I'd remove it." Ruby said.
"Aw, That's mean." Dylan said. "Tell your friends that its cool, Kass." He said and tightened his grip on my shoulder. Emma stood up.
"If you want to live. I would sincerely consider walking away now, Creep." She said.
"Wow. The blonde is feisty." Dylan said and took his hand off my shoulder. "See you in French." He said and walked away.
I couldn't breathe. I stood up from the table and ran out of the cafeteria.
Killian was walking to his classroom when he saw me. He looked around to make sure no one else was around before unlocking his door and letting me in following me and locking it behind him.
"What happened?" he asked.
"Dylan." I said and threw myself at him. He wrapped his arms around me. "Its just day one, and Hes making my life miserable! He's in every class and I couldn't even eat Lunch without him approaching me and putting his disgusting hands on me." I said.
"He touched you?!" Killian asked.
"On my shoulder." I said and cringed. "I thought Emma was going to stab him in the throat with her fork."
"She should have." Killian said. "And your father is sure nothing can be done?" He asked.
"I don't know. Hes off this afternoon, so after school I'm meeting him at Granny's to talk about it." I said.
Killian nodded and looked up at the clock. The bell is going to ring in a few minutes. Are you going to be okay?" he asked.
I nodded. "I think so." I said.
"Just two more hours and you'll see me again."
"Yeah but Dylan will be here too."
"Dylan has another thing coming if he thinks Hes going to bother you here." He said and kissed me.
"You have to go. I will see you soon." He said. I kissed him back quickly and left the classroom.
I sat in creative writing I was always early to this class it was my favorite, well besides Killian's, but showing up early would be out of character and I didn't want people to suspect anything. I cringed as Dylan walked in the class and picked the empty seat next to mine.
"Really?" I asked.
"What?" he asked with a grin.
"You don't even like writing and you always thought when I would write that it was stupid." I said.
"No, but I like you." He said.
"Enough to punch me in the head and give me a concussion. What a gentleman." I hissed.
"About that...that guy that showed up. I saw him in the hallway. Hes our math teacher??" He asked. "What was he even doing there?"
"Well, if I had to guess, he was on his way home, saw you attacking me and stopped to help like a decent human being. But you wouldn't know what that is would you?" I asked.
"Watch it." He said and narrowed his eyes. "Besides. I apologized. Or did you not get the flower I sent you?" He asked.
"Oh. I got it. My father said it was lovely, He thought it would look nice next to your tombstone when he kills you." I said. Dylan reached over and grabbed my arm squeezing it.
"Are you threatening me?!" He hissed.
"Let go of me!" I spat.
"Is there a problem over here?" Mr. Booth said walking over to us. Dylan let go of my arm.
"Nope." He said.
"Kassidy?" Mr. Booth asked.
"No.." I said.
"Good." He said and walked back to his desk.
"Good girl." Dylan muttered.
I felt like I was going to throw up.
Killian's POV
I stood outside the classroom watching my last class of the day enter the room. I saw Kassidy walking with her head down. Following her was Dylan. I clenched my fists at my sides. Kassidy walked past me into the classroom not even looking at me. Dylan went to follow I put my arm in the doorway blocking his path.
"Remember me?" I asked.
"Yes." Dylan said. "You're the guy who doesn't know how to mind his own business." He said. I clenched my jaw and fought back the urge to knock him out.
"Why are you here?" I asked.
"Because I love her and she loves me, she just needs to be reminded." Dylan said.
"I think it goes without saying, that if I see you put your hands on her in any way, Mr. Hendrixson your time in Storybrooke will be extremely short lived." I said.
"Are you threatening me, Mr. Jones?" He asked.
"I'm warning you. there's a difference." I replied and moved my arm so he could enter the classroom. He made his way towards an empty seat by Kassidy.
"Mr. Hendrixson your assigned seat is over here." I said and pointed at one on the other side of the classroom. He just smirked and walked over to his seat and sat down. I walked past Kassidy noticing some light bruising on her arm that I know was not their earlier.
That son of a bitch I thought and took my place at the front of the class.
"Right. So, the test has been postponed until Friday. I'm aware that Miss Nolan had quite the party this weekend and I assumed that none of you studied, and it would have been a waste of time." I glanced at Kassidy. She was just looking down at her text book. I actually missed her sarcasm.
"So if you'll turn to Chapter 9 we can start the lesson." I said. Everyone opened their books and I started the lesson. Waiting for sarcastic comments from Kassidy, but none came. She wouldn't even look at me.
When the bell rang Everyone began gathering their things. "Your homework assignment for tonight is on the board, make sure its on my desk in the morning." I said "Miss Cole, I need a word with you."
"I actually have to go, I'm walking with Ruby to Granny's." She said.
"Its okay, Kass. I'll wait for you outside." Ruby said.
"Okay.." Kassidy said. I waited until everyone was outside before I walked over and shut the door.
"You didn't say a word." I said.
"I didn't want to interrupt you." She said. I just gave her a look.
"Dylan just threw me off. I don't want him getting suspicious." She said. I took her arm in my hand.
"Did he do this?" I asked running my finger over the bruise. She pulled her arm away from me and looked away.
"Kassidy.."
"Yeah. He did it." She said. "Its only going to get worse Killian." She said.
"I'll talk to the principal, and to the counselor, see if I can get some of his classes moved and make sure that they know about what Hes done in the past. they will watch him like a hawk."
"But they will want to know, how you know." She said.
"So I tell them about when he attacked you. They can't blame me for helping you."
"Okay.." She said. I smiled at her. "Go meet your Dad and figure out what to do next." I said and kissed her.
"I needed that." She said and grinned. Finally a smile.
"I thought so. I'll text you later." I said. She smiled.
"Looking forward to it." She said and walked out of the classroom.
Kassidy POV
"So I might have an idea. But you are going to hate it." My Dad said. I swallowed the bite of grilled cheese in my mouth and took a sip of my coke.
"What?" I asked.
"A set up." My dad said.
"We get the two of you alone, except your not alone, Me, and some of my guys will be hiding recording the whole thing." He said.
"You're right. I hate it." I said. "I'm not really up for getting knocked out again or being alone with him. Anywhere."
"I figured you would, but it might be the only way we can get him out of your life for good." Dad said. "What if I could promise you, that I wouldn't let it go too far?" He asked.
"I don't know.." I said.
"You have a little while to think on it. I want you to build his trust before we try anything. I don't want him to catch on right away." Dad said. "But if we do this, Hes going away for a long time. You wont have to worry about him anymore." He said.
"I'll think about it. Okay?" I said.
"Okay honey." He said and looked down at his phone and sighed.
"I have to go in to work." He said.
"There isn't anyone else who can?" I asked.
"No, I'm sorry. Are you okay to Stay at Ruby's again?" He asked.
"Yeah. Sure." I said and sighed.
"I can give you a ride." He said.
"No, its okay I'll walk. I'm going to get some pie first." I said
"Okay, I love you. Be safe. Text me when you get to Ruby's." he said and stood up leaving his credit card for me on the table. He kissed me on the top of the head and left.
I rang the doorbell at Killian's grinning at him when he opened the door
"Pie delivery." I said. He smirked and let me in.
"I didn't know Granny's had pie delivery. Or that the girls who delivered it were so pretty." He said. I walked in and set the pie on the counter.
"I thought your Dad was off tonight." He said.
"He got called in. So here I am." I smiled.
"Here you are." He said and backed me into the kitchen counter Kissing me.
"Did your dad have any ideas?" He asked.
"One." I said.
"Oh?" He asked.
"my Dad wants me to gain his trust over the next few weeks.. and then stage a set up where its just me and him. and my Dad and his cop buddies hiding and recording the whole thing."
"I don't like the idea of that.. It sounds dangerous." Killian said.
"I told him I'd think about it.. It would get him out of my life." I said.
"At what cost? What if he figures it out? What if he hurts you?" Killian said
"I don't know. But its the best option we have." I said. "I haven't said I'd do it yet."
"Please think about it." Killian said.
"I will." I replied. "But..,I'd rather not think about it right now." I said and turned around and opened the to go box the coconut cream pie in it. I took my finger and dipped it into the whipped cream and then booped his nose.
"You didn't just do that." He said.
"Oh. I did." I smirked. "What are you going to do about it?" I asked. He reached behind me and got a hand full of whipped cream and smeared it all over the side of my face.
"That's what I'm going to do about it." He grinned. I took some of the whipped cream from my face and flicked at him and then took off down the hall way.
"Oh no you don't!" He said and chased me. I laughed as I felt his arms around me and he lifted me over his shoulder carrying me back to the kitchen. Both of us laughing and not caring about anything, or anyone else.
