Chapter 2: Chapter2

#Chapter2

/"Excuse me?/" Corbin spit out, challenging Lucas to repeat himself.

Oh crap.

Why did Lucas have to taunt him?

/"You hit Hazel. Apologize,/" Lucas ordered, surprising me.

Corbin chuckle at his sudden confidence. /"That wouldn't have happened if she had minded her own business and stop trying to protect her precious boyfriend,/" he looks at me, /"He should learn how to stand up for himself./"

I grit my teeth in anger. He's testing my limit here. Just because his family is rich and powerful doesn't mean he get to do whatever he wants.

I lower my eyes to avoid his gaze and see Lucas's hands forming a tight fist that his knuckles have popped out.

Corbin must've noticed this too because he asked, /"What? Did I hit a nerve?/" Corbin provoke Lucas.

Lucas suddenly grab Corbin's collar and held up his fist causing a shocking gasp to escape my mouth.

I watch as Corbin look between Lucas and his fist. /"Hit me. I dare you,/" Corbin challenge him.

Not wanting this to get out of hand, I speak up, /"Don't do it. Be the bigger person. He's not worth your time, Lucas./"

My comment must've been funny to Corbin since he's chuckling right now. /"There she goes again. Standing up for you,/" Corbin said.

Lucas didn't say anything and just stare at him. /"If you're not going to hit me, then let me go. You're wasting my time,/" Corbin spit out causing Lucas's jaws to tighten. I move closer towards them and place my hand on Lucas's hand which is still holding tightly onto Corbin's collar. I stare at Lucas, giving him a 'let him go' look. Lucas stare at me for a few seconds before I feel his hand release Corbin. Lucas put down his fist and let go of Corbin.

I let out a sigh of relief.

Lucas step back from Corbin while Corbin fix his shirt.

/"Later, princess./" Corbin leaves after flashing his signature smirk, knowing that he's won.

I speed walk to the parking lot, ready to get out of school.

Since Lucas and I live about a good 5 minutes away from each other, he always picks me up and drop me off at home ever since last year when he got his license. I just got my license a few months ago but still don't have a car which sucks.

I walk to Lucas's car because he always waits for me there. Only a few feet away from Lucas's car, I can see Lucas talking to a guy who's back is towards me. He's wearing a black sweater with the hoodie on which made it difficult to tell who it is.

I made eye contact with Lucas and his expression looks surprised to see me. My eyebrows furrow in confusion. Why does he look so suspicious?

I walk closer towards them, hoping I can see who the guy in the black hoodie is, but he walks away from Lucas. I approach Lucas and asks, /"Who was that?/"

/"Just someone,/" he shrugs casually and get inside his car. I eye him suspiciously before getting inside the car on the passenger side. I can tell he doesn't want to talk about it, so I dropped the topic and didn't bother asking him throughout the whole drive home.
