My phone lit up on my lap and I checked it.
Everything is ok. Come to lab after school. Everything that just occurred will be explained. I know it's asking a lot and I probably don't deserve it, but please just trust me.
I sighed as I closed my phone. Fine I guess I could do as he asks. I payed attention to my classes until lunch, which I sat alone eating a sub in the cafeteria. Soon I was visited by the girl from the hall.
"I'm not falling for your innocent shy girl act. You're dating Victor aren't you?" She said as she slammed her tray down in front of me. My eyes twitched through irritation.
"My, you behave differently when he isn't around. What was your name again?" I asked taking another bite of my sub.
"My name is Vivian. Now answer my question."
"Ok, Viv, I am not dating Victor." I answered, annoyance was not hidden in my voice.
"Then why are you always next to him. Or in all of his classes. I've even seen you with him out of school, shopping together."
"I didn't deny that we were... Friends." The word seemed odd when directed at him. "I do not control the schedule of the school, that was clearly a coincidence." At least that's what the school board thinks.
"You're not fooling me. Stay away from him, he's mine." She said possessively. I started to laugh.
"Oh really. Last time I checked he dumped you, infront of everyone. How embarrassing that must have been. I already said it once, I'm not dating him." I leaned closer to her and smiled mischievously. "And even if I was, someone as pathetic as you wouldn't be able to make me back down from what I have claimed. I will continue to be around him as much as I want. What are you going to do about it?" I taunted, I could see the anger in her eyes but she stood up and stomped away. I laughed at her as I finished my food. Throughout the rest of the school day I caught sight of Vivian glaring at me but I just shyly smiled back at her, making sure my demeanor was the timid, innocent, passive, new girl.
Soon school was over, and I walked to my car, then drove away.
