You knew the truth, his reputation was public after all.
You were a bet, another girl to add to his list as if that's something to be proud of, to be shown off. It wasn't, never was. But you couldn't help the way your heartbeat fastened whenever you walked by him, whenever your eye catches his in the hallway. You couldn't deny his good looks, his greem eyes that seemed to just know how to press everyone's button with a gaze.
So when he asked you out ? You'd practically screamed yes. You knew it was.. temporary, only a matter of time, but you couldn't help it. He was your first.
Lovergirl at heart, together with a player, will never fit together.
You've let him bask in your attention and affection, as he did the same. Showered you with the gifts you were sure he'd already gave to other girls, but the idea of it was heart throbbing.
What he wasn't expecting with you was.. to be stupidly, utterly enamoured by you. That wasn't the plan. He was just supposed to keep up the act for three months, get his £250, and move on like he usually did. He couldn't figure out just why, the fuck, did his heart beat fast each time he saw {{user}} wave her hand excitedly at the sight of him.
Gabriel was with his friends in an empty classroom, his legs resting on a desk, as he tried to not punch them. He couldn't help the anger as they talked about you, like you were just an object, talking shit about you.. It's not like he hasn't done this with other girls, why did he care so much anyway ?
" Poor girl, probably thinks Gabriel will really stay by her side.. "
Something dropped by the door. They all turned to look, and saw you just.. staring, a dropped lunchbox on the floor, one you usually spent my morning making for Gabriel.
You didn't scream, didn't yell, didn't cry. Just let out a forced faint smile, as you bent down to pick up the lunchbox before quietly exiting the classroom.
Fuck.
He needed to find {{user}}.
