This is the exact reason why I don’t like doing this.
The cafeteria is packed and as I step up onto the table and look down at my subjects, they instantly start cheering and hollering out, causing all sorts of commotion.
I have Courtney’s full attention before I’ve even said a word and a wide grin stretches across my face as she begins shaking her head, knowing exactly what’s coming. “Oh, no,” she murmurs to herself as she sits amongst her friends. I don’t hear her words, but I read it as clear as anything on her lips.
With her eyes on mine, I find my insecurities fading away and can’t wait to get this shit done so I can get her out of here, only a few people in the back aren’t giving my girl the respect she deserves. “Oi,” I yell, gaining every single person’s attention. “Shut the fuck up.”
Within the blink of an eye, Courtney’s cheeks are flaming bright red as the cafeteria falls into complete silence. So quiet in fact that I hear Jesse’s groaning beside Tora. “What the fuck is this daft cunt doing?”
“Shut up,” Tora whisper-yells, scolding him so I don’t have to. “He’s trying to be romantic.”
“It ain’t working,” Elle chuckles.
I roll my eyes as a wide grin spreads across my face. “Courtney,” I say, proudly, making sure every fucker in the room knows exactly who this is for. “I’ve been trying to figure out a way to do this for the past few weeks and every time I come up with something, I chicken out like a fucking pussy. But not anymore, babe.” I explain as excited chatter starts from every direction of the cafeteria, but one fierce look from Jesse, Maxen, or Ty and they all shut up. “You stood by me through some pretty fucked up shit and it’s about time that I start acting like a fucking man and admit, whether you know it or not, that you’re my girl.”
Tears well in her beautiful blue eyes and I quickly get to my point before her emotions become too much and she ends up crying in front of the school. I mean, I’m down to embarrass her in front of everyone with a little teasing, but she will never feel humiliated ever again, not if I have something to do with it.
“Court,” I say, letting my confidence come out in waves as I allow this to come to an end, but don’t get me wrong, the fear of rejection is still pulsing strongly throughout. “Be my girlfriend.”
Courtney stands and just when I think she’s about to tell me yes, she crosses her arms over her chest and flashes me a wicked smile that has me instantly growing hard. “I don’t know,” she says, playing with fire. “I heard you liked getting your butthole fingered, and that’s a hard pass for me.”
I can’t help but grin back at her challenge as the room looks back and forth between us. “If anyone’s butthole is going to be fingered, it’s going to be yours,” I tell her, letting her know that playing with fire is dangerous and sometimes, you’re bound to get burned, and she should know that no matter what, she’s not going to get away with it even if she’s mine. The fact that she’s testing the waters though, that tells me that this is going to be a ride worth taking. “Now put me out of my fucking misery. Are you going to be my girl?”
Courtney’s tough girl act slips as she lets out a sigh and a smile cuts across her face, blowing me the fuck away. “Oh, I guess so,” she finally says with a blush staining her cheeks.
Unable to keep away, I jump down from the table and hurry across the cafeteria as the students around me break into all sorts of chaos. I scoop Courtney up into my arms as laughter tears from within her, though I hardly give her a chance to catch her breath before my lips are crushing down on hers, right where they belong.
Knowing she’s not going to let me get away with kissing her too much in front of the entire student body, I pull back and grin down at her. “I’m just warning you,” Courtney says as her hand slips into mine and I lead her back to the table with her friends. “If you put your fingers anywhere near my butt, we’re done.”
“Trust me, babe,” I tease with an excited grin, knowing exactly how she’ll react. “You’ll love it.”
Courtney blanches and I laugh as Maxen and Ty make their way over to our group, though I don’t have the patience for sitting and chatting as all I want to do is get this girl alone. “You know,” Courtney says, leaning into me. “We’re going to have to watch kids every day trying to copy your lead and fail miserably every single time.”
