Chapter 2
⚜BETHANY'S P.O.V.⚜
Me and Clyde exchanged numbers. I can't believe we flirted a lot in the cafeteria. He even took me to their table! They say that if you take a girl to your "bro's table" meaning you're claiming that she's yours. Clyde likes me? Well, I like him too. Me and Vivian always squealed when he was around. I heard a familiar car honk. "Chop chop slow ***!" Aunt Frannie said making me laugh. I ran to her car and opened the passanger seat door. "Any plans for tonight?" She asked and I shook my head. "Actually. I'm attending to a party." I told her and her eyes widened. "Party?! As in highschool party?!" She asked and I nodded. "Well then, finally we're gonna use those pumps we bought yesterday!" She shouted.
Ugk. I am the luckiest niece in the world.
Aunt Frannies's words.
Shhh!
—*—
I was hella ready for the party. I wore a red checkered button up shirt with a black spaghetti strap shirt inside. Black denim skorts (it's like a skirt but it's a skort) and I decided to wear my boots. I didn't want to wear a dress because all the dresses we bought are too revealing. "Kick some *** Bethany!" My Aunt shouted. If my Dad heard me saying that, he would disown me. He said it was unlady like and I shouldn't be shouting stuff like that because I'll be humiliated.If he heard Aunt Frannie shouting that he would probably send her out.
"I'm glad Mum and Dad aren't home." I told her. "Yeah me too. Because I gotta hold this angelic mouth of mine if they were." She replied. I rolled my eyes."You call that angelic Auntie? Well lucky you. They won't be back until next month." I told her.
I guessed that Vivian wouldn't text me the address to Heather's house so I texted Clyde.
Bethany:
Hey Clyde it's Bethany. I was wondering if you know the address to Heather's house?
Clyde:
Yes. You know what? I'll just pick you up and we'll go together. What's your address?
Bethany:
Habsburg St. House #24. See ya!
Clyde:
Yeah see you. Don't miss me too much ;)
Bethany:
Trust me, I won't. Maybe you're the one who's missing me :)
Clyde:
Ya bet.
I locked my phone and told Aunt Frannie that I'll wait for Clyde.
—*—
"Are you ready?" Clyde asked me as soon as we arrived at Heather's house on his bike.
I'm glad I tied my hair into a bun because Clyde isn't the type of guy who likes to wear helmets because his hair is "too precious" for those stuff (his words not mine).
"Better ready than never." I replied biting my bottom lip. "It should be now or never." Clyde argued. "Yeah whatever. I'm coming up so we better get this party started!" I sang and sang and made my way inside the house.
"That's the spirit!" Clyde shouted and put an arm around my waist.
"So... Do you um— l-like m-me?" The words slipped out of my mouth without knowing.
He started at me. Completely shocked.
He opened his mouth and closed it again.
When he was about to reply, Heather came into the picture.
"Yo Clyde! Oh and Bethany! What's up?" She greeted.
"Oh you know, the sky, the moon and stars. The usual." I joked.
"You're funny. But, you're not my type." She replied.
"You're not funny. And sluts, and pompoms aren't my type." I replied.
"Girls can you keep it down?" Clyde asked.
"How can I keep it down Clyde?! Huh?! This slutty btch decided to dress up and steal you from Vivian! And now you expect me to keep it down?! Come here Vivian and kiss Clyde! And show him that you are worth it and nothing like Bethany!" Oh boy.
"Yeah Vivian come here. I don't wanna waste my time on kissing you. So, I'm just gonna waste it on rejecting you. No matter how you look or no matter what you do, I'll never like or love you back. And you were never my type keep that in mind. All I ever wanted was Bethany. She is the only girl that I ever liked. She never talked to me but I always liked her. So shut the fck up and leave me and Bethany alone." I was shocked. And happy at the same time.
Vivian was crying. I know she felt humiliated so she disappeared.
Clyde Boyer liked me back?! As in for real?!
Oh my mother fcking rainbows and unicorns!
Am I dreaming?!
And then he slowly walked towards me.
Leaned in.....
And kissed me.
I kissed him back.
Aunt Frannie told me to just move my lips and let my heart take over.
And don't be nervous because I didn't wanna be called a bad kisser.
—*—
"Meet my friends. That's Jake." He pointed the hot guy with blonde hair.
"Hey yo Bethany. What's up?" Jake greeted.
"The sky." I replied.
"Hahaha you're funny!" He said pointing his index finger at me.
"And that over there, is John." He pointed the guy with light brown hair and green eyes.
"Hello." He greeted.
"And that is Philip. The goody-two-shoes of our squad." I smiled at him.
"You must be Bethany. Nice to finally meet you!" He said.
He offered his hand and I shaked it.
"Nice to finally meet you too." I replied.
"Where's Clive?" Clyde asked them.
"I think he went to get some drinks. He'll be back anytime soon." Jake replied.
"Let's get wasted!" I heard a very familiar voice say.
Clive....
He's so hot!
I thought of something to make him jealous.
"Tell Clive I'm your girlfriend." I whispered to Clyde.
"Hey bro! Meet Bethany.... My girlfriend." Clive's eyes widened.
I knew he likes me!
Oh shut up!
You know that you're talking to yourself right?
Whatever!
"Can I talk to you for a second?" Clive asked.
I didn't know if he was talking to me or to Clyde.
Then he was staring at me as if waiting for me to go with him.
I pointed myself.
"Me?" I asked.
"No, the chair." He replied.
I rolled my eyes.
"Have fun talking to the chair." I replied.
"Of course you Bethany!" He shouted harshly.
"Woah, woah, woah. Don't talk to my girl like that." Clyde warned him.
"Oh right I'm sorry. Now come with me I just need to talk to you." He said.
I thought of something to tease him.
"Say please." I smirked.
"What?" He asked.
"I said, say please. Or no talking." I said.
He groaned. "Fck this! Please?" He begged.
I followed him.
Heather will kill me if she sees us.
"I bet Heather will kill me if she finds out I'm with you." I said.
"No she won't. I won't let anything or anyone harm you." He muttered and I didn't understand.
"I'm sorry what?" I asked.
"Nothing. Just follow me." He said.
I obeyed.
We climb up the stairs and entered one of the rooms.
We switched on the light and saw that the bed was occupied.
Two people making out.
Heather and a guy.
"Heather?" I asked and looked at Clive.
He looked shocked as hell.
"Baby. No, it's not what you think. I—I—" Clive shook his head.
"Don't call me baby. We're over." Clive said and walked out of the room.
I followed him and grabbed his wrist.
"Clive, please calm down. If you're just gonna leave and then you just wasted my time coming here." I said.
"I'm sorry. I won't leave. I just got shocked. Heather promised me she wouldn't do such a thing." He replied.
I hugged him.
"Promises, promises. You shouldn't believe in those not to be mean or anything. Just stating the obvious okay? Heather's a mother fckng btch arse slut." He chucked and hugged me back.
"I know." He replied.
"Now, what were you gonna tell me?" I asked.
"I am not destroying my brother to you or anything. It's just that, he lied to you. He told you he never liked Vivian but honestly, he did. He even had sex with her on 8th grade. They were together for a month and then she broke up with him because he started cheating on her. He said all those stuff a while ago because Clyde already changed. And Vivian wants her back. But, he just used you to get Vivian to go away." He said.
"We aren't really together. I—I just told him to pretend we're together to—to— m—make you jea—jealous." I replied.
"The reason why I always teased you because I liked you. And now, Bethany I think I love you." Clive confessed.
"I'll be hurting Clyde if—" He cut me off by kissing me.
I kissed him back.
He pulled away.
"As long as he doesn't know." And then he kissed me again.
You slutty btch.
I told myself.
