Chereads / The Band Boys / Chapter 13 - Drawback

Chapter 13 - Drawback

OK. This is what he meant by good job and no trouble huh.

The next day I saw my band pictures with Karlee on the bulletin board. It's not showing my face. But, the pictures looked like the other me is flirting with Karlee.

So underhanded.

I walked passed the board and ignored what I just saw. Some girls were saying something bad about what they saw.

So pitiful.

She deserves it.

Karlee is too good for her.

I ignored the other things I heard as I walked past that board. I don't need to show any reaction since I know that it's the same person. ME.

Chloe and Heleina rushed to me, showing their worried faces, they want to console me about what happened.

"I know it's just rumors. The pictures really can't tell anything more than them being band mates, right?" Chloe said while grabbing my left arm as we walk.

"I haven't seen that girl in any clubs. Maybe she isn't as good as me in singing but she can't be prettier too because if that's the case, she would be popular but apparently, nobody knows her. According to what they said, she's the same class as you in one subject." Heleina inquired.

" I'm actually fine. You girls need not to worry anything. I know Karlee has an explanation I am willing to hear. OK? " I need to talk to him first to plan what was going to happen next.

But I haven't seen Karlee the whole day.

Next day, he showed up and ripped the pictures in the bulletin board. What he did was the talk of the school the whole day. I caught him in the cafeteria.

"Hey, what's happening?" I asked. I noticed he was not in a good mood.

"I can't deal with you today. I will just talk to you when I am feeling to do so."

Ouch.

"OK. Bye" was all I could say. I got hurt and pissed off by the way he said that.

It's as if I am a burden he needs to carry every time.

I walked out and went straight to the car park.

Unfortunately, another piss off showed up.

"Hey, how are you?" I can see his face looking worried but somehow it felt like he was up to something.

"Not today Ford." I can sense him grinning on the side.

What is he grinning for, you evil scum!

And just when everything seems unfortunate, I see my tires flat.

"Fuck this day!" was all I could say.

He looked at me and saw what I was angry about.

"Oh shit! What happened?" he looked so surprised.

"Did you do this? What the fuck is wrong with your brain? Why do you have to do it?!?!?!" I'm almost screaming at him. This is so frustrating.

"Hey, seriously? I didn't do anything like that to your car. I don't know what happened either. I just arrived here when I saw you coming." He looks like he's not lying but I am not in the mood to be rational and believe his reasoning.

I went to the back of my car and get the tools so I can change my tires.

" wait, you're gonna get dirty. You should just bring that to the shop and have it fixed. I'll pull your car." he offered with a worried look.

"I don't have enough money to have it fixed. This shit happens when a guy tries to do something stupid to impress a girl." I removed my polo and went on the side of the flat tire.

I saw his face turned red and looked away. He was glancing at me.

I continued to fix my car and was able to finish it smoothly. He wasn't talking to me. More like he's just watching me do everything on my own.

I finished changing tires and grabbed some towel for my sweat and some dirt on my hands and arms.

He was just there standing beside my car. Speechless

What happened to this jerk? He lost his tongue?

"Done. Move aside. I am going. I've had enough for today."

He moved a little and smiled.

He was shaking his head.

"you really are so amazing, you know that?" he was smiling like a crazy person. He covered half of his face and looked at me.

He seemed sincere, sweet and blushing?

"I know what I know. So move." I went to open my car when he reached on my waist and pinned me on my car.

"so hot and sexy" was all he could say.

I can smell his perfume, his breath, his sweat.

It was all very addicting. So manly. So.....

Stop! Don't start thinking about this arrogant guy.

"Oh great, here in the parking lot! Really?!?!" it was Karlee. He saw Jaz pinning me on my car and touching me.

He still sound pissed and not in the mood.

"Benz, you should have seen - - -" he was cut off by the sound of a girl who will start another complication in my everyday life.

We both looked at the girl who was calling out on Karlee.

"Karlee!!!" she said and went to kiss Karlee on the lips.

It felt like a hundred years.

I felt something in me break.

I clenched my hand to control my temper.

Jaz loosened up his hold of me and looked at Karlee, surprised and disappointed on what he was seeing.

"Zoe... Zoe" Karlee's voice was like a whisper, but enough for me to hear.

Zoe Annika Bentley.

My nightmare
