Chapter 10
Throughout the week, I was looking around campus, trying to find all of the strange items that I lost. I still couldn’t find my laptop. They never touched my pencils thank god, but my laptop was gone. I could still draw and use the pencils, but my laptop was nowhere to be found.
“Shit, where is it?” I said. I couldn’t just walk around without it. I mean, I needed it for school. And of course, there were things on there I’d rather not have in my possession. I looked around, and I couldn’t find it anywhere. That worried me, especially since I didn’t have the money to spend on that.
One day, I heard a couple of girls talking, and when I overheard what they said, I stopped.
“Yeah I was with him the other day. He had a couple of books with that weirdo Jules’s pictures in them. I told him he should burn them, but he told me to fuck off. Can you believe him,” one of the girls said.
“Yeah, does he like her or something? Gross,” the other said.
Luca had my scrapbooks? I immediately knew where I needed to go. I went over towards the dorms where the Elites were. I walked over to where his was, knocking on the door.
I didn’t expect him to be home, but when he walked out, he looked at me, a smile on his face.
“Hello Jules,” he said.
“Yeah, hello to you too. Listen Luca, I believe you have something of mine,” I said.
“What do you mean?” he asked.
“My scrapbooks,” I said.
I looked at him, and I saw out of the corner of my eye the pink ribbon that I had on them. He smiled at me, and I looked at him with annoyance on my face.
“Yeah, those,” I said, pointing there.
“Oh yes. I forgot about these,” he said to me.
“Yeah well, can you stop ‘forgetting’ and give them back to me? Would be appreciated,” I aid.
“Sure, for a price,” he said with a purr.
I stopped right there, looking at him. What kind of price was this guy looking at I looked at him for a moment, assessing whether he was joking or being serious. I knew from the moment his gaze became unwavering that he was serious.
Shit, I need to think of something.
I didn’t want to just give in and follow the price he had planned for me. I needed to at least try to have a slight edge over this fucker.
What kind of price did this guy normally drive? I wondered myself, and for a moment, I thought about my options. I could run in there, but that might put me at risk for injury. I also could just tell him to fuck off, but that might not end well either.
“Alright, what’s your price,” I asked to him.
“It’s simple. A blow job. One blow job, and you’ll get your previous scrapbooks back. And I have a reputation for getting what I want out of any deal, you know,” he purred.
As if that would happen. I shook my head.
“Fat chance. No thanks,” I said.
At that moment, I saw the sudden change. Instead of the haughty look of satisfaction, he had a look of shock on his face. However, as quickly as it happened, he recovered, smirking at her again.
“Aright, if you think that that’s too much, how about a kiss,” he said.
I couldn’t believe this guy. I couldn’t believe he would try to use someone like this. There was no way, no way in hell that I would do this. I grimaced at him. this guy was totally trying to manipulate me, and I could tell that if this was any other girl, they’d be down on their knees.
Well, I’m not like any other girl.
“When hell freezes over Luca,” I said to him.
“Well, do you want those precious little scrapbooks back or not?” he said sardonically.
“I’ll take them back myself if I have to,” I said to him.
I walked in, grabbing the scrapbooks and walking out. He was too shocked to answer, which made me feel satisfied in my own way. He didn’t even stop me as I did it, just watching me as I touched the books, pulling them up, and going my merry. Way.
I finally shut the bastard up. But, as I was walking down the hall, I noticed Tabitha there.
“What the hell are you doing here?” she said.
“Grabbing some things that were left here. Why?” I asked her.
I realized at that moment that I could’ve put that in a much better way. She then looked me up and down, and then looked over at Luca.
“What’s your relationship with him?” she said.
“Why does it matter? I’m not going to step on your boundaries there princess,” I said with a sneer.
She looked at me and for a moment, I think I broke her too. These people were not used to people actually calling them out on their bullshit. She then looked at me once again, a frown on her face.
“You better watch your tongue there,” she told me.
“Or what? Your little goons are going to bother me again? Knock it off Tabitha, you’re the one who put them there, and you’re trying to frame me as some slut whose trying to get with Luca. When in fact, he tried to come onto me, and I said no. now, if you’ll excuse me, you’re better off not getting involved with me,” I said.
She seemed shocked at my tone of voice. She didn’t expect me to just tell her to fuck off like that. I think she thought her tormenting would stop me.
Well it didn’t. She then scoffed, looking at me with a sneer.
“Watch your step bitch. Don’t think you’re something special cause you stand up to us. You’re nothing, and we’ll make sure that you know that,” she said.
I scoffed. “Tell me something I don’t
