BAD BOY IN LOVE - CHAPTER 3&4
***the incident****
“You think you can touch my skin, you dirty pig!! Think again,”Delilah said, her voice filled with bravery and determination.
********
Jace held his cheek, still trying to process what had just happened. Did a girl really just slap him? It felt unreal.
He raised his head, glaring ruthlessly at Delilah. The rage boiling inside him was immeasurable. If he had seen a gun, it wouldn’t have taken him a second to $h00t Delilah.
Asher and Axel, knowing how aggressive Jace could be, quickly stepped in between them, trying to put an end to the fight. But the cold look Jace gave Asher and Axel made Asher find a seat for himself, realizing there was nothing he could do.
Axel, who was closer to Jace, still stood between them, determined to bring an end to the fight.”
Jace looked around, the flashes of different cameras only fueling his anger. He moved closer to Axel, using all his energy to pull him away, causing Axel to land in a chair.
Delilah knew the guy she had just slapped was capable of anything, so she prepared herself, glaring fearlessly at him.
“You dare slap me!! You sure are brave,” Jace said, raising his hand to strike Delilah. But before his hand could reach her, Delilah swiftly moved to the side, causing Jace’s hand to land on Aron, who happened to be passing by.
The food in Aron’s hands scattered on the floor, and his lower lip was stained with blood.
The sudden turn of events elicited gasps from all the onlookers, including Delilah herself.
“Oops, I guess things just got more intense here,” Delilah said, facing Raven. “Let’s go,” she added, storming out of the place, with Raven following behind.
Aron gently touched his lower lip, feeling the blood staining it. “Wow,” he murmured, glaring dangerously at Jace, then delivering a powerful punch that sent Jace tumbling to the floor, his mouth also stained with blood.
“What the hell, bro!!!!” Axel exclaimed, standing from where he was seating. Truly he likes Aron as a friend and he badly want him to join their hands but he can never whistand him slapping his closest friend like that.
Aron swallowed his anger and shot Axel a fierce glare. The reason he had slapped Jace was because he can’t stand seeing men disrespecting women. And secondly he can’t allow Jace to slapped him because of that rude girl, He wouldn’t lift a finger to help her, even if she was in the depths of trouble!
“You don’t talk to me like that!” Aron snapped at Axel , his eyes blazing. He then turned to Jace with digger look “You’re no different from an animal!” With those biting words, Aron stormed out of the place, leaving the chaos behind.
Axel stepped closer to Jace, extending a helping hand. “Sorry,” he said sincerely, but Jace yanked his hand away, clearly not in the mood for apologies.
“Sorry for what? Get the heck out of here!” Jace retorted, banging a chair and shocking the other students before making his exit.
“Let’s go, dude,” Axel said, motioning for Asher to join them.
Asher stood up, his gaze icy as he glared at the students. “If anyone dares to upload that video you just took to the school blog, each one of you will face my wrath,” he warned, his voice dripping with cold determination. With that final statement, Asher stormed out of the scene, leaving everyone in awe.
★★★★★★★★
Delilah strutted straight to her car while Raven trailed behind, chattering away like a parrot. Delilah already regretted becoming friends with her. Sure, she appreciated Raven’s cheery vibe, but dang, that girl could talk your ear off!
Unfazed by Delilah’s expressions, Raven kept bombarding her with questions. “Aren’t you scared if Jace slaps you or sends his gang after you? Are you safe on this campus are you ……….?” She couldn’t even finish her sentence before Delilah silenced her, placing her hands heavily on Raven’s shoulders.
“Raven, seriously? You talk way too much! Can’t you just be quiet for a second? I’ve told you, nobody, and I mean nobody, can even come close to touching me, let alone beat me. Do you even know who I am?” Delilah asked, a mischievous smile playing on her lips. Raven shook her head, indicating she had no clue.
“I’m Delilah Morgan, the one and only daughter of the mighty Morgan family,” Delilah declared with a sense of pride that made Raven smile.
“You’re so proud of your family,” Raven remarked, playfully slapping Delilah’s shoulder.
“So can we finally head to my place in peace?” Delilah exclaimed, opening the car door. But before she could even step out, her phone started beeping non-stop. She debated ignoring it, but the messages seemed urgent. Raven, in the same boat, couldn’t resist checking their phone.
To their surprise, Delilah was already making waves on the school blog. Raven couldn’t help but read the headline of the trending video: “Delilah Morgan: The fearless girl who wowed everyone with her mind-blowing dance move had slapped the notorious A^J band member, Jace.” Raven calmly watched the video and then delved into the comments section.
🗣️ “How dare she slap my crush?”
🗣️ “Wow, she’s fearless! I like her.”
🗣️ “I think she’s more talented than Harley.”
🗣️ “Harley should take notes from her.”
🗣️ “She’s the queen of boldness.”
🗣️ “Let’s crown Delilah, she’s worth it more than Harley.”
Raven scrolled through the comments, unable to read each one, but the sheer number was mind-boggling. Over 1,000 comments in just 20 minutes.
Delilah raised an eyebrow, completely puzzled by what was happening. “Who posted this?” she curiously asked, trying to make sense of it all.
Before Raven could respond, a voice from behind interrupted them. It was Harley, slowly walking closer to Delilah. Delilah stood her ground, sensing that Harley would be rude.
Raven, knowing Harley’s tendencies, tried to move closer to Delilah and whispered in her ear, but Harley was already getting closer.
“Why did you upload the video?” Delilah questioned, her tone firm.
“Don’t you want to be famous? I thought I was doing you a favor,” Harley replied with a mocking tone.
“What did you achieve by doing that?” Delilah stood her ground, unwavering.
“Achievement? That should be your achievement, not mine,” Harley smirked, clearly restless.
“Phew!!! I’m not going to waste my time arguing with you. Over my dead body,” Delilah declared, facing Raven. “Get in the car, baby girl,” she said, opening the car door.
Harley glared at Harley before reluctantly going to the other side and getting into the car.
Delilah frowned, her face filled with a mix of emotions. It was as if she had remembered something important. “Why does my mind keep telling me that there’s more to unfold in the future?” she pondered out loud. She entered the car, leaving Harley standing there.
Harley watched as the car started moving, feeling a wave of frustration wash over her. She clenched her teeth together, almost feeling like she wanted to disappear into the ground.
“Delilah Morgan,” she muttered, angrily stomping her foot on the floor before walking away.
★★★★★★★★
In the big seating room, three sets of people were chilling on the comfy couch, each holding a cigarette, puffing away like there’s no tomorrow.
The room was all smoky, giving off a mysterious vibe and adding some spice to the scene.
Two of them were totally glued to their phones, cracking up at every little thing. Meanwhile, Jace was sitting there, lost in thought, still trying to process the fact that a girl had slapped him.
Every time he remembered, he would hiss and shift in his seat, clearly bothered by it.
Suddenly, Jace angrily threw his phone aside, flicking away the smoke from his hand.”I can’t believe this girl slapped me!” He exclaimed, his anger evident.
Axel looked at him and scoffed, “Not all girls are the same, man. I’ve been telling you, don’t assume every girl will let you touch them however you want,” he said.
“But I didn’t even touch her, I was just… oh, f***!” Jace exclaimed.
“Just forget about it bro! Just pray not to cross part with her again” Asher said his gaze not moving from the phone.
“Forget what? Did you even know me? I am Jace hunter. I did wh@??ver I want and I will make sure the girl paid for her sin” Jace said with determination.
“Did you know you’re me the Top trending on the school blog?” Axel asked showing Jace the video where Delilah slap him.
Jace watched the video with irritation. He read the headline and smirk dewily”so her name Is Delilah,” he said as if he has a plan on his mind.
“But who posted the video?” Asher asked.
“I think it’s Harley. She’s the only one that have the pride to valuate my rule” Asher said
“Harley? That ?îtçh” Jace said and pick up his phone dialing a number.
It took like 50seconds before the caller pick.”Delete the video you posted right now” Jace said and hung up immediately
“Guys can you believe this? That girl broke up with me! Who does she think she is?” Axel exclaimed with rage, his eyes turning fiery red.
“Well, that’s your problem to sort out,” Jace replied, his voice filled with anger.
“Wait, are you talking about your girlfriend?” Asher asked, still engrossed in his phone.
“Yeah,” Axel replied simply.
“Which one?” Asher teased. “Lina, Thea, or maybe Bea?”
Axel gave Asher a questioning look. “Are you making fun of me?” he asked.
“Nah, man. Just messing with you,” Asher clarified.
“No, I’m talking about Tatiana,” Axel replied, irritation evident in his voice.
“The girl you met two weeks ago?” Jace asked, and Axel nodded. “Why are you getting all worked up, bro? Did you even have any intention of being in a relationship with her? You were just looking to have some fun, and you already did. So let her be,” Jace concluded, though he couldn’t resist teasing Axel even in his anger.
“You’re talking as if you’re so innocent,” Axel scoffed.
“I’m different, bro! I don’t lead anyone on. I make it clear from the start that I’m not looking for a relationship. And they’re okay with it. They give me what I want willingly,” Jace said, as if it was something to be proud of.
“Yo, shut the heck, bro!,” Asher said, causing Axel to give Jace a keen look as if something was about to go down.
“Don’t tell me to shut, bro!” Jace replied furiously.
“But you know he was just joking,” Axel tried to calm Jace down, knowing how easily he could get aggressive.
“I can’t stand hearing things like ‘shut.’ You know that,” Jace said angrily.
Asher stared at him and let out a scoff, “Come on, man. Just admit you got mad ’cause of that spicy slap you received earlier,” Asher said, teasing Jace.
“You guys should seriously shut it!!! I just got served an unwanted breakfast,” Axel exclaimed.
Asher and Jace looked at him as if they pitied him, but then burst out laughing loudly.
“That’s your problem, not ours,” Asher said, returning his gaze to his phone.
Jace was about to say something, but his phone beeped, distracting him. He checked the messages and smiled dryly. “Breaking news,” he said, catching Asher and Axel’s attention.
“What’s up?” Asher asked.
“Your loyal girlfriend is sliding into my DMs,” Jace said, replying to the messages he received.
Asher and Axel exchanged glances and quickly jumped on Jace, both sharing a meaningful look after reading the messages.
“Tatiana?” Axel and Asher exclaimed simultaneously.
“Did Tatiana message you?” Axel asked with anger in his voice.
💬 “Can we meet at tonight’s school party? I have something private to discuss with you,” Jace read out the message Tatiana sent to him.
“A night party? Which one is that?” Asher asked.
“Oh, tonight is the welcome party! I almost forgot,” Jace said, feeling his mood brighten up slowly because he knew he would have a great time.
“Wow, same here!” Asher said happily.
“I really wanted to be happy about the party tonight, but Tina ruined my mood. I really like her,” Axel said sadly.
“Cheer up, buddy! There will be plenty of girls lining up at your door tonight,” Jace said cheerfully, playfully jumping on Axel.
“You’re choking me,” Axel said, as Asher joined in the playfulness.
“Let’s rock the party tonight!” Theyshouted.
