I closed my sketchbook and put it beside Sarah's soup. "Don't you dare mess on it." I said even though and I knew Sarah was the most cleanest person I knew.

I was sitting with my two best friends during lunch time and we were talking about what girls would talk about.

Until,

"Speaking of crushes," I rolled my eyes and lost all hope for this conversation. "What happened with Alexander?"

"Oh God." I muttered. There was really no escaping this.

"You? No- impossible. You like me? Your sister could do better than that." I shook my head with an eye roll.

"I knew you wouldn't believe me."

"Damn right. So why tell me?" He sighed at this and I could see the irritation in his eyes. "Why are you so Goddamn stubborn woman?"

"I could ask you the same thing." I folded my arms and looked up to him innocently. "Princess why is it so damn hard for you to believe that I actually feel something for you."

Princess.

"First of all, don't call me that. Second, that's humanly impossible." I answered. "Humanly what now?"

"Impossible." I finished off. He blinked at me once, with his brows slightly knitted as his gray orbs, bored into mine.

"Why do you have to be so damn complicated?"

"I-"

"I like you Serine. I genuinely, like you. And I know you don't believe me, which is why I don't mind proving it to you."

"Ale-"

"I'll never kiss you without permission, I'll wait and prove to you that this is genuine. And you will believe me, no matter how long it takes." I stared at him in utter disbelief.

I shook my head not believing everything he just told me.

It was impossible.

Alexander didn't like me and I didn't like him. But I was willing to give it a try, too see how far he'd go.

I was about to see if he was being true or nah.

"I'm not telling you guys anything. " I said trying to conceal the small smile that was creeping its way up.

"Oh. My. God. Is that a smile I see? This outta be good! Serine Santana Williams, I suggest you tell us what happened between you and Alexander."

"Could you be more desperate?" I heard a voice that was absolutely not supposed to be involved in this conversation.

Just what I fucking needed.

"Don't you ever get tired?" I asked facing her. Her blue eyes were glaring into mine and you could practically see the smoke coming out of her ears. "Listen here-"

"You need to stay out of what doesn't concern you." I said and I heard a few 'ooo's' from the people in the cafeteria.

"What do you mean it doesn't concern me? Alexander is mine not yours, and you," She glared, jabbing her finger on my chest and continued. "shouldn't involve your ass where it doesn't belong. He doesn't want you baby girl, he'll never ever want you."

"Ok let me make this clear, okay? I don't care if Alexander is yours or not. I don't like him so I think you should be the one talking to him and not me. It's not my fault that he preferred to let go of your ass and go for mine."

"Excuse me?"

"Do I have to say; did I stutter? Come on now Kells. You know me so much better." I smiled innocently. "You better watch what you say." She said through gritted teeth. "Or what? " I challenged. Our faces were inches away from each other and I was waiting, just waiting, for her to spit trash.

It wasn't til a few moments later of glaring at each other that I took a step back with a smirk on my face.

"You're nothing, but a pathetic, boyfriend snatcher, a skank, who is absolutely shameless, just like her damn mother." I knew she said that to only so she could provoke me.

I knew what she wanted from me and maybe she thought today I would tolerate and be the bigger person. Well guess what? I was done being the bigger person.

It was time for me to embarrass Kelly Anderson. I tilted my head to the side slowly but maintained eye contact with her. I knew that I looked like a maniac, smiling while my blood was boiling. Once I was looking straight forward once again, I brought my hand up to connect with her cheek but I stopped mid end and laughed at her reaction.

She had already covered herself up, she looked fearful and that's exactly whay I wanted. Once she realized that, she glared but I could see the embarrassment in her eyes.

"I. Hate. You." She came with everything she had and only for me to move away and for her face to connect with soup that was in a bowl, that was on a tray. Shock even appeared on my face and the sight was just as amusing.

I stepped forward and grabbed a good handful of her hair. "The feeling, is mutual" I said before allowing her face to dip into the soup once again. I grabbed my back pack. I turned around and saw Alexander from a distance with a smirk on his face.

I slowly but surely walked over to him and did one thing that you, nor anyone would ever believe.

I kissed Alexander McCann.
