Summer School Chapter 7

I'm not sure what passed through me then. Maybe desire, maybe fear, maybe even slyness. But one important emotion passed through me right then. Fury.

Jerking my arm away, I whirled to face him. My chocolate eyes were hard and my face set in a cold mask. "What?!" I spat out the word with a bitterness that surprised even men.

Even with my fury raging, I didn't let it seep through in my voice. One good side to having a model mom.You know how to keep a straight face and level voice.

He looked almost shocked, his grey eyes boring into mine. I don't think I could look away, even if I wanted to. Which surprised me, because I didn't want to.

"Jeez, just wanted to know where you went." He stated it so simply, his voice so laid back and casual, it shocked me into silence for once. He crossed his arms over his chest, probably mocking me. "You gonna tell me or do I have to guess."

Good. Game time. I like games, I'm good at those. No, great. "Take a couple blind stabs and hope you hit in the heart, otherwise it might attack." My voice was still cold, but littered with amusement.

His eyes narrowed. "Fine, I guess that leaves me no choice anyways." Sighing, he leaned against the brick wall. "Party?"

I shook my head no and a small smile flickered across my face. A mocking smile. "Nope. Guess again, Mr. Scum-bag."

It was cruel, I know. But still, with my fury boiling and about to splash over the pot, I had no choice.Well, I did. I just took the 'wrong road.' As my mom put it.

"Umm..you needed a drink?" At that, I laughed outloud instead quietly chuckling at his way off questions. "What?"

Rolling my eyes, I answered. "I don't drink." I said it so simply, so casually, I was beginning to think that maybe I was copying him. Mimicking. Whatever you wanted to call it.

"Oh, okay then...Umm..I don't know?" A small smile flickered across his smooth face, without a single blimish. I was jealous as my pores were always needing cleaning. Then impatience gave in. "Just tell me."

Shrugging, I glanced around. "Fine, but you can't tell anyone."

His face grew slightly confused. "Why?"

"I already have enough rumors going around about me." I waited until he nodded before continuing. "I went to go to my father's grave."

So what you guys thinking so far? I like the length of this chapter, though i felt that maybe it could have been better.  What you thinking?
