His mouth dropped, and he couldn't believe she had just ditched him. "Caroline!" He called in surprised annoyance. "Come back!" He frowned, trying to follow after her, but was stopped by the nurse. "You mister, are going to be in deep trouble."
Caroline flopped down in her favorite chair and began typing away letting all the tension release out of her system
Brad groaned as he sat there getting lectured by the principal. "You can't keep doing this Mr. Hoax! You're promoting something here to all the young girls, and it isn't good. All the boys in Freshmen year are going to start acting like you, they're looking up to you! If you don't start shaping up you're going to be suspended. Or maybe even expelled." The principal frowned at him. Brad barely listened, until he heard the end. "Sir! It's called flirting! What ever went wrong with a little bit of it?"
Caroline walked out of her office to get a drink when she heard brad in the principals office she rolled her eyes and stepped in panting " sir there's a freshman. And a senior fighting in the lunch room" she sajd
The principal looked up and groaned audibly. "Of course there is! I'll be there in a minute, right now I'm dealing with this senior." He muttered gesturing to Brad. Brad looked back at her and averted his gaze. "Is there blood yet?" Brad asked curiously.
" sir the freshman had a broken nose it's not pretty" Caroline said " the teachers can't pull them apart" sh said.
Mr. Davis sighed and walked out. "Don't move Mr. Hoax." The young principal demanded, before jogging off down the hall quickly to the cafeteria. Brad looked at Caroline and had a tight stare. "What?"
"let's go" she said nudging her head to the door " before he comes back" she said
"Why are you helping me now?" He asked skeptically standing up. "You said it, I played you." He said coldly, but simply. Just in the stating a fact tone. He wasn't about to lie to her, there had been enough of that.
" Exactly I should be pissed at you not the other way around I didn't do anything Brad" she said in frustration starting to clench her hands into fists
"You ditched me, and now I might be expelled." He responded, he wasn't mad. Mostly just unsure what to think. Brad stood, and walked over to her. "Though, I think you might be getting a little bit." He said walking up to her.
" .Did you want me to kiss you …No I didn't think so don't get an attitude. The nurse saved us we were gonna kiss or maybe we weren't I don't know" she kept rambling on
"Hold up, I told you it was all up to you. You never told me to stop, and you were honestly leading me on." He defended himself, crossing his arms. "When I said it was up to you, I thought by that point you knew what I was going off of."
" I'm vulnerable…it's been awhile since ..since someone… touched me like that" she said
"Like what?" He asked not understanding what she was going off of. "I don't know what you mean, you have to be more specific then that."
His dark eyes looked her up and down, watching her every move. He wasn't sure why, but he decided that he in fact did want to kiss her, and hold her close. Make her his, that's what he wanted. But that was never going to happen.
She put a hand on his cheek lovingly " like that" she said with a sigh
He felt his heart beat a little faster, before relaxing himself. He was Brad Hoax, he wouldn't let a simple girl like her rattle him. Glancing up, he took her hand in his, and dipped her some. "So you like gentle touch?"
" What girl doesn't?" She asked with a giggle and raised eyebrow
"Not sure, but some prefer it over other things." He smiled pulling her back up. "But we need to move before the principal gets back, I'm assuming there wasn't really a fight?" He asked still holding around her waist.
"Nope so let's dash" she said starting to walk away but couldn't because he had a good on her waist
He chuckled lightly, and loosened his hold. "You'll have to explain my absence missy." He smirked letting her go. He started striding forwards away from the office quickly.
" I know i know " she said exiting the building and leaning against her car biting her lip
"Wait a minute, we're like going, going?" He asked raising his brow high. This was unexpected from Caroline to say the least. "I didn't think you had the guts to do something like that, but I'm going to have to refuse you."
" I'm on.free period " she said with a chuckle " I'm going to Starbucks you want anything?" She asked about to get I her car
' she could think of a couple things she wanted but they wouldn't be able to sell that to her at a coffee shop' she thought
"No I'm OK. I don't drink caffeine, it's disgusting." He gave her a disgusted look sticking his tongue out. "I don't know how anyone could like it, it's so bitter!" He chuckled stretching out. "Oh wait! Am I on the squad or what?" He asked pulling out the flyer from earlier.
