Akio pulled himself away. “Sorry, but you shouldn’t get involved with people like that. They’re bad news, Imani, and you’re a good girl.”
Good girl.
He knew nothing about me. I didn’t do drugs and didn’t hang out with gangbangers, but that didn’t mean I was good, like everyone thought. I had business with Poison, and I was just getting angrier by the damn moment, talking to Akio.
“If they’re bad news, then what did you do to get on their radar?”
Akio went dead silent and sucked in a breath. “I can’t tell you.”
“Okay. Then, if you want to get the shit kicked out of you today, be my guest and follow me.”
“What’s your problem today?” Akio asked, lips curling up in disgust. “You’re on edge.”
Instead of listening to him anymore, I stormed down the hall and left him. “I’m pissed off …” At the one and only group that seems to terrify everyone else in this school.
All damn night, I had worked myself up, wondering how I could have let Landon leave after he snooped through my Discord and shoved me against the wall, scolding me for talking to other guys. But we were never exclusive, and besides, I hadn’t messaged any of them back these past few months.
That didn’t matter, though.
What mattered was that he’d looked through my things.
I took quick strides down the corridor to the hallway where Poison could always be found beating someone up or dealing drugs, found Landon leaning against a wall with a cigarette hanging out of his mouth, and marched right up to him.
Unable to stop, I slapped Landon right across the face so hard that my hand stung, and I grabbed him by the collar to pull him closer. “Don’t you dare go through my computer, my phone, or my Discord again. You had no right to, no matter if I’m yours or not.”
Adrenaline rushed through me. I shoved him away, turned on my heel, and stormed back down the hallway to the science wing. I had an exam today that I knew I was going to fail, but that didn’t bother me as much as what Landon had done.
And I hoped that I’d knocked some damn sense into that boy.
