Love ~ Leonardo Dicaprio fanfic

3 ~ football jerk

I sit down in Leo's car. It is a black BMW with leather seats. How come he gets a car but not me?

"Beautiful car." I say as Leo drives out of the parking lot.
He laughs mockingly. "Beautiful?"Okay, it sounded dorky when he said it...

I bite down on my lower lip and make sure a second time that the seatbelt is buckled properly. I don't want to die after all. When I think about it I'm being an idiot for being in a car with a guy I don't even know. What if he kills me? I should have called my mom first and asked her if what I am doing is okay.

The ride is worse than hell and by every passing, awkward, quiet second I want to kill myself even more. Maybe some music will help? I put on the car's radio, but Leo is quick to turn it off again.

"Oh, I'm sorry." I stutter.
"Yeah, well, don't touch anything" he spits. Wow, such nice behavior this guy has!
I cross my arms over my chest and look out the window.

We finally arrive at a large two floored house with a big yard. It looks ten times bigger than my own house. Leo gets out of the car and I wait a few seconds to calm down my breaths. I reach my hand to unbuckle the seatbelt but without any result.

"Why won't it-" I mutter as I try to get it up. Drops of sweat are building up on my forehead as I still don't get the belt up. What have I done!?

Leo walks around the car and opens my door with a confused expression on his face. "What the fuck are you waiting on?" he spits.

I look up at him with tears burning behind my eyes. "I'm sorry, I can't get the belt off." 

Leo grimaces. "Great, so you have destroyed my car now, or what?" Without a doubt he leans down over me and puts his hand right next to my hip and tries to unbuckle my belt. He groans as he doesn't succeed either. 

"Can you move a little." he sputters. 

"I can't move more." I defend myself. A loud squeak escapes my lips as Leo puts his hand on my hip and lifts my butt a bit so that he can get a better reach on the seatbelt. My breaths are heavy and I stare into Leo's blue sweater as he continues doing whatever he is doing. He smells like smoke and warmth.

I hear the belt unbuckle and Leo lets go off me as fast as he possibly can, as if I'm some infectious disease. 

We walk into the mansion and Leo leads me to his room, which has white walls and modern furnitures.
We sit down at his desk and Leo looks at me.
"So..." I begin. I'm still a bit shaky and there is nothing I want to do more than go home.
He raises his eyebrows and waits for me to say something.
"What do you know about vikings?" I ask.
"Nothing. They lived in Sweden?" Leo shrugs
I mimic his shrug even though I know everything there is to know. 

We work for almost two hours and the time goes faster than I thought it would. Leo isn't as rude as before, but he's not kind either. I don't know what his goal is. He looks at me when I speak and he actually seems to pay attention, but then suddenly he is throwing out a rude remark or commenting something I'm doing. 

"I can drive you home." Leo says when we have finished the assignment.
We don't speak much during the trip to my house. I only tell him where I live and then we don't say a single word to each other.

"Thank you." I smile awkwardly as we arrive at my house.
Leo winks at me. "No problem."

It has been a couple of days since I was at Leo's house. Today is the day of the big party and I am currently sitting alone in the corridor. Andrea is still sick and Sofie is standing a few feet away from me, talking to some boys from the football team.
I sigh as I scroll through my phone, searching for something that can entertain me.
