All Chapters of I Kissed My Bully: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

XAVIER I make my way to my room and fall on the bed. Dad can call the school and explain why I'm not there today. I wake up a little after noon, still in pain but better than I was this morning. The first thing I do is check my phone and I see that I have I missed calls from Camden, Derrick, Eric and my mom. Shit, I forgot to call mom in the morning.I return her call first."Hey sweetie, I've been trying to reach you.""Hey mum." I say."Listen, I don't have time to talk right now but I'll be in town next week, let's catch up." She says and ends the call.This is why I don't take her calls. They're always things she could have said on text or an email. I'm willing to bet 10 grand that she will find a reason why next week won't work. She always calls to promise to see and never does.I call the kitchen and request lunch to be sent up. I usually go down to get my food myself but I don't have the strength for it.After lunch, I do some school work then start to play video games. I don'

RAIN Xavier doesn't come over the next four nights. It's sad that I missed him. I see him every day in school and he walks right past me without a word or look in my direction. He finds time to glare at Greg whenever he's near me but he doesn't say anything to Derrick or Camden which is what we agreed on. On the plus side of hanging out with Greg, Derrick a leaves me alone now. When he sees me, his first thought isn't to insult or push me. He just glares at me. Some of my things still turn up in places they shouldn't be but I found a solution for that too. Greg offered his locker for me to use. Derrick can't go near it because if he does, that'll lead to another fight with the basketball team and according to Greg, he'll get benched for the season if he gets into another fight.The lunch bell goes off and I wait for students to leave as usual. Today I don't have this class with Greg so we don't walk to his locker together. I went back to my table with the stoner kids after that day.

XAVIER The waiter appears as soon as we sit down. My mom introduced us. Sapphire, the girl, goes to my school. I guess that's where I know her from, I must have seen her around. She's not very talkative which suits me just fine. The moms take control of the discussion and we just add to it whenever they remember we were there.After eating, we move to the golf course where my mum practically shoves me on Sapphire while she plays golf with her mum. We don't talk much, Sapphire is obviously a very shy girl. I try to make her comfortable and talk about mundane things that make me want to shoot myself in the foot.Finally, the hell is over and I'm back in the comfort of the car."What did you think of Sapphire?" My mum asks, as soon as the car door is shut.I shrug. I don't think anything of her. If it wasn't for this discussion, she would already be wiped from memory."Don't shrug at me, you're taking her to the founders’ ball.""Am I?" I ask."You are, so tomorrow at school I want you

RAINLike I suspected, shopping was hell. The girls all had issues with every dress and found reasons to make us stay longer than was necessary. I finally had to tell Greg to pick anything for me when I looked at the time and saw that if I didn't leave, I would be late for my shift at the radio station. It's an evening show so I only work in the evenings, which works perfectly for me.After work, I buy myself a burger before heading home. There's a dark figure sitting on my door step when I get home. I sigh out loud when I see him. So now he wants to look at me?He stands when I come up and watches quietly as I open the door. He only speaks once we're inside the house."You're home late." He says.He sees the take out bag I have with me and takes it from me."Hello to you too, Xavier."He nods with a smile and starts walking to the living room with my dinner. He takes a seat and opens the package. He sniffs it and nods in approval."This is good." He unlocks his phone and tosses it to

XAVIER The next day I'm not in a better mood but I try to hide it at school. To make things worse, I saw Rain and new guy talking in the parking lot and they looked like they were going to be friends again which pisses me off because he still likes her, I saw it in the way he leaned into her and she has no clue. He's going to be more subtle about charming her now and I can't do shit to stop it from happening.I forgot my homework at home, I could have asked one of the house assistants to bring it to school for me but the fact that I was so angry at my father that I forgot it made me angrier and I didn't call anyone. The teacher, Mr. Hedwig, didn't mind that I forgot it.I skipped lunch. I don't want to watch Rain and new guy. I don't understand what's happening to me. This was supposed to be a onetime thing and now I don't see myself letting her go anytime soon. I need to put distance between us, get my head back in the game.School ends and I try to get away before my friends see me
