The Badboy's choice | ✔️

🌠 Chapter 30: Promises 🌠

The past weeks went by so quickly, the maths competition was now only a week away,

Me and Matthew had gone through most of the notes, I swear my brain is filled with a whole bunch of mathematical stuff

We definitely have to win this maths comp

I was currently in the library studying with Matthew, there were about 20 notes left that we had to go through

Matthew looked concentrated as usual in his work, not exactly giving a 'badboy' aura

I sighed before taking some earphones out and plugging it into my phone before putting the buds in my ear

I looked through my phone in the playlist I created,

Hmmm every breath you take by 'The Police' it is

I placed my phone down, at picked up my pencil continuing the work I was previously doing

Everything felt better with music

I hummed quietly to myself and danced mentally but I was still shuffling in my seat

It must have startled Matthew, cause he poked me on my shoulder blade hard to get my attention

I turned to him, he had a confused look on his face,

"What?" I said innocently

He stared at me for another few minutes

"nothing" he replied

I pressed my lips in a straight line, you can't just say nothing like there was a damn reason for a staring

He literally wasted 5 min of my life

I turned back to my work a little frustrated, but I was suddenly hauled up from my seat

I took the earbuds from my ears and stood up straighter swatting Matthews hand away from my arm

"What are you doing?" I asked in a hushed tone

"Let's go" he replied with an eye roll

"Um excuse me but I'm not going anywhere with you and plus we are in the middle of second period!" I said my voice raised slightly

Matthew grabbed my arm again, "I know that let's just go" 
He said

I took my arm back and crossed both my arms in front my chest,

I stood there glaring at Matthew,

"What come on!" Matthew said a little annoyed by my mood

"No I'm staying here and that's final!" I declared

"Dani live a little please?" He asked in a pleading tone

"I can't risk escaping school, it could put bad marks and put a damn detention which I'm telling you I can't go again because of you, it's gonna wipe out my clean record, I mean ditching school th-"

Before I could finish my rant he shut me up

"I promise it's gonna be fun!" Matthews said trying to lighten my mood

I shook my head vigoursly fighting the tears that were threatening to come out,

He shouldn't promise anything, not after what he did
