Heartless prick with puppy dog eyes

Hey guys, thanks to all who reviewed. I got a couple of emails and reviews asking if I was going to abandon the story, so I thought I\'d clarify things a little. 

I don\'t plan to abandon it, it\'s sorta like my first baby lol. It was the first story I wrote on AFF and I got no reviews for it at all, even after I posted the second chapter; so I thought if people don\'t like it there\'s really no point in carrying on with it. Then out of the blue I got a review that encouraged me to repost it, and that\'s what I did and got a better response second time round. In regards to how regular the updates are, I have two stories here, Usually once I\'ve posted a chapter on one story, I\'ll start working on the second one, and that way they get equal time.



Lisa: I wanted to give Chris unconventional competition hehe

Arya_arsay: I love that you reviewed HSF then this, and that you like them both. I\'m glad I got you to come back for more of my silly stories :D

To my regular reviewers, your reviews genuinly inspire me to carry on, so a BIG FAT THANQ :-)



Now this chap is short, but I\'ve already started working on the next one, so hopefully there won\'t be a big wait :D

We walk into the school cafe, hand in hand; him, glaring at everyone, me ignoring everyone. 

I grab a sandwich and a diet coke, he gets a normal coke and some cheesy fries.



"Stop glaring at people." I tell him.



"I\'m not. Just marking my territory." he informs me.



"Your not pissing under the table or anything, are you? Coz that\'s disgusting." I smirk at him.



"Shut up. Hmm, at least your smiling again. What, you got a urine fetish that I don\'t know about?"



"Eiw. Just eiw." I shudder at the thought.



"No fetishes? Not even one?" 



"Like I\'d tell you anyway." I scoff at him.



"Spoil sport. I dont think you have any anyway, your very vanilla Mel." he grins at me.



"I guess you\'ll never really know.... I mean, I could be into leather. Tight, low riding leather pants, that look like a second skin, stopping way below a pierced belly button. Coz that\'s another thing I could be into, piercings. Eyebrow rings... Nipple rings, they say cock rings heighten certain... Pleasures, you ever thought of getting one?" the look on his face, like someone just tazered him, is priceless, and I have to bite the inside of my cheek to not laugh. "Like I said though; what I\'m into, is on a strict need to know basis, and you my friend, don\'t need to know." I wink at him and he blinks in suprize, making the dam of laughter I was trying to hold onto burst out uncontrollably. Dear lord I\'m laughing so hard tears are rolling down my face. He on the other hand is shaking his head at me, a slow grin spreading on his face. 



"I\'m your boyfriend remember, I therefore, by right, should be privy to that information." 



"To be privy to that sort of information, you\'d need to be my actual OUCH! What did you do that for?!" he stepped on my foot under the table! 



"Do what?" he asks innocently, but cocks his head to the side, and looks pointedly behind me. I look back briefly and find Tony sitting behind us, messing with her phone. I feel heat spreading to my ears, I probably look like a tomato. Did she hear us? Did she hear me? I wasn\'t loud, but then I wasn\'t whispering either. Shit shit shit. Like I need extra hassel. It\'s one thing messing with Chris, he\'s my best friend, I can be as silly as I want with him, but that was definately not for anyone elses ears. 



Dear God, I don\'t ask for much. Mainly because I don\'t believe you exist but I\'m willing to change my presumption; just please don\'t let her have heard that. Please.



"Haha, your blushing; don\'t worry, I don\'t think she heard. Your fetishes are safe with me." he winks at me.



"Shut up." I mumble, and the bell goes. 



The rest of the afternoon goes uneventfully. 

Chris walks me to all my classes, and besides holding my hand, which makes me feel nice and dulls the memory of this mornings events, he doesn\'t do anything that makes me want to thump him, or jump him. It\'s a fine line between the two, I find.



As we head out of the school, Chris steers me towards his car, which pisses me off slightly. I usually walk home. Well, I say usually, I mean since he started dating Sky. Because well, I felt I was being a third wheel riding with them. He protested a little, but not enough to change my mind. Anyway, now he wants me to ride with him? Is this how our relationship will be? Me being sidetracked when he gets a better offer, then filling in the gap until the next offer comes along? Do I even have the right to want or expect more?



"Does it hurt?" he asks, his trade mark smirk gracing his face.



"What hurts?" I frown at him.



"Thinking that hard. Your like in a world of your own."



"Hmm."



"Whats the matter?" he stops infront of me, gently tilting my face up to his with his hand, no trace of that playful smirk.



"Nothing." I say, meeting his gaze and forcing myself to smile. What do I say anyway? I want you all to myself? Don\'t ever leave? I\'m tired of being second best? All these jumbled thoughts are swirling like a black cloud at the back of my head, all the time, and I can\'t stop myself thinking them. 



"I see through it you know." he says quitely, looking at me intently before he releases my chin.



"What?" I ask bewildered.



"Your smile... You know, we\'ve been through so much together, been friends for so long and these days I just feel like you don\'t talk to me anymore. "



"Dude, I don\'t talk to anyone as much as I talk to you. And what\'s there to say? There\'s nothing wrong, and therefore nothing to say, I\'m a happy bunny. I mean a happy elephant." I smile brightly at him. 



"I swear to God, if you say your an elephant, one more fuckin time! You are not fat! And if you take the crap that Sky spews as gospel then you need your head checked! Mel your hot. And the bitch was jealous of you. It\'s really quite simple."



"Ha! What\'s there to be jealous of?"



" Me." he smirks, closing the gap between us. " You\'ve got me."



If only I had. I think just before his lips land on mine and all coherent thought process vanishes.
