Leah
We stood there for what felt like an eternity, but it was technically less than thirty seconds. Kayla's eyes shifted between us with her jaw unhinged. The expression on her face was priceless, it was a mixture between shocked, happiness and wondering what the hell is going on.
You and me both, girl.
"Kayla." I said cautiously. I felt like I was on the verge of disarming a bomb, that I had to be careful with every word, every step and every action. Because if I don't take that precaution Kayla would explode.
And I meant that quite literally.
"I'm just gonna go look around." Jace whispered into my ear. I knew he could feel the awkwardness in the air. When I heard retreating footsteps, I focused my attention towards Kayla once more. This time she wore a smug expression.
"You litt-" She started with a playful smile on her face.
"Kay." I warned. She better not finish that sentence.
"What?" She asked innocently. "I was gonna say you little angel."
"Right." I have her a pointed look.
"Would you like to fill your best friend, who you have been hiding secrets from, on what the hell is going on?" Kayla asked with hands on her hips. Full on mom
mode.
"Not here." I told her looking around at the crowded mall. I couldn't risk exposing our relationship. There were too many wandering ears.
"Okay, fine. But I want the full explanation and details soon." She said with narrowed eyes. "Or I will burn your secret secret stash of chocolate."
My eyes widened. "How do you know about that?" Yes, I have stashes of chocolate. A girl gotta have her chocolate. But, I specifically hid another stash of chocolate away from Kayla cause she always eats away at the other one. Greedy.
Her smile transformed into a devious one. "I have my ways."
I gave her look that said 'you better have not ate my chocolate' and she just continued to grin.
"So where you really with him last night?" She asked suddenly.
I choked on the gummy bear I had popped into my mouth. "Uh, kind of." I told her after recovering.
She squealed. "You dirty litt-"
"Kay!" I yelled cutting her off once more. "It's not like that."
"So you're telling me that you want me to believe that you spent the night with Jace Emerson, one of the hottest guys in our school if not the hottest, and nothing happened?"
"Uh, yes." I told her deadpanned. Nothing actually happened.
She gave me that smug look once more causing me to glare at her.
"What are you even doing here?" I asked trying to change the topic. "I thought you hate coming to this place on the weekend."
"I loathe this place on the weekend." She said. "Didn't your mom tell you?"

Teen FictionI shook my head at him. This is his game. But that doesn't mean I can't master it. I gave him a seductive smile. "Are you scared that I might just beat you at your own game?" Jace let out a deep chuckle that sent tingles down my back. "Sweetheart, I...
