《Innocent Bet》Chapter 6

Summer's p.o.v

I woke up around 2:30 am running for the bathroom. I hurled anything I had left in my stomach. He stays on my mind and I just can't seem to get rid of him!

Luke runs into the bathroom to come and assist me. He hands me a Gatorade. I gulp it down. He flushes the toilet and hands me a tissue to wipe off my mouth. Ugh, I hate this! I just wish this had never happened. How could I be so stupid?

"Thank you." I said.

He nods his head and pulls me into his arms.

"Babe, I'm so sorry."

"Luke you don't need to be sorry."

"I know, but you've done a lot for me in just four days. I just wish I could change the past."

"I wish I could too."

I turn back to the toilet and hurl some more while Luke holds back my hair.

Around 3:15 am I'm finally done. I'm so tired and exhausted. Luke picks me up bridal style and carries my over to my bed. He lies me down and covers me with my blanket. He then walks back over to the couch I have in my room and we both drift off to sleep.

•••

I wake up again at ten am. I look over to see Luke playing on his phone. I sit up in my bed and drink my Gatorade.

"Good morning sunshine!"

"Good Morning handsome!"

I get out of my bed and stretch. I grab my phone and see a text from Bella.

'You AND Luke skipped school today?! Summer! Are you guys hooking up?'

I texted back.

'No Bella! It's a long story, he's just staying home today to take care of me!' I sent the text.

I'm bored and there's nothing to do in this house! I walk over to my bathroom to brush my teeth. Once I was done I shut my door to go to the bathroom.

Are you fudging serious? I started my fracking period. I clean myself up and when I was done I start to cry. I splash my face with cold water to help with the redness on my face. I walk out of the bathroom to my mini fridge, I just want to eat.

"What's wrong babe?"

"I started my fudging period!"

"At least we know you're not pregnant." He chuckles.

"Luke! Leave me alone!"

"Okay okay, I'm sorry."

"I'm going back to sleep!"

"Yeah, you should get some rest. I have to go check on my mom."

"Mhm"

I jump back into my bed and go back to sleep. Feels like I've only been asleep for about 30 minutes before Luke came barging back in.

"Sunny! My mom is coming home tomorrow."

"I thought you said she was gonna be gone for a few weeks?"

"Yeah, just because less that four days ago I told you a few weeks doesn't mean she hasn't been gone a few weeks before we met."

"Okay, true."

"Yeah, so can you drop me off at my house after School tomorrow?"

"Yeah. Thanks for taking care of me today."

"You're welcome now go back to sleep."

"Okay."

•••

I wake up at 5:00 am to get ready for school. I basically just slept and watched Netflix the whole day yesterday. Luke took care of me, what a gentleman.

I put on a long sleeve Tommy Hilfiger shirt and VS leggings. I put on grey Nike socks and slip on my Tommy Hilfiger slides. I grab anything I need for school and I walk downstairs. I grab some cereal and force it down my throat. It's been hard for me to eat since the incident, I feel like no matter how many times I clean myself off, I just can't seem to get rid of him.

"I see that you're eating better!"

"Yeah."

"You're gonna miss me aren't you?" He smirks.

"Pfft, no! I can take my bra off and dance without any judgement."

"You can do that now, I won't judge you."

"Shut up!"

I picked up my empty cereal bowl and put it in the sink. I quickly let my dog out and say goodbye to him.

"Let's go Luke!" I yelled.

"Are you going to Dunkin? You didn't cook me breakfast."

"Dude! Why can't you cook yourself?"

"Because I like your cooking!"

"Yeah we can go to Dunkin. You're such and idiot."

"Whatever."

I walk out the door and into my car. I had to adjust the seat since Luke drove my car last time.

"Shortie." Luke scoffs.

"Shut up! Why do you always have to be mean to me?"

"You're just easy to pick on babe."

"Bully."

•••

We pull into the Dunkin drive through. I want a coolatta.

"What do you want?" I ask the idiot next to me.

"I'll order." He said.

"Luke, I'm closest!"

"And I'm the gentleman."

"That's the dumbest thing I've heard!"

"Tell me what you want or i'll..."

"You'll what?"

"I will steal your order!"

"Oh...so bad."

"Tell me what the hell you want we're getting close!"

"A fracking blue raspberry coolatta!"

"Okay!"

So demanding this dude. I'm kind of happy this is officially my last day with him.

We pull up to the speaker thingy and I roll down my window. I look over at Luke to queue him.

"Hi welcome to Dunkin may I please take your order?" Said the girl.

Luke takes off his seatbelt and leans over me. He places a hand on my leg and I tense up.

"I would like a strawberry frosting donut and a blue raspberry coolatta!" He yells out the window.

He pulls back but his hand still lingers on my thigh.

"Luke..." He smirks at me. "Get your nasty darn hand off of me!" I yell.

He immediately pulls his hand away.

"What the hell?"

"Luke, where have you been the past few days? It doesn't take two darn days to get over something like that!"

"Oh shit, I'm sorry!"

"Whatever, at least now you have other girls to grab."

"Shut up!"

I roll my eyes. I pull up to the window so we can get our food. Luke inhales his donut like he hasn't eaten in years. The coolatta is nice except for the fact that it makes me cold.

•••

We pull up to the school. I was embarrassed to be with this doofus. Not wanting to be seen with him, I quickly get out of the car and walk into the school.

I ignore the stares from the girls that think Luke is some type of god that watched us pull up.

I hurry up to my locker even though I had some time before class. I wanted to be extra sure it didn't look like I walked in with Luke.

I was pulling out my English book and binder when Luke leaned onto the locker next to me.

"Running away from me Sunshine?"

"I don't want to be seen with you Luke!"

"Why? Are you afraid of my fan girls."

"Seriously? Fan girls? And uh yeah, I do happen to be afraid because at any moment one of them could pounce at me! I can die, do you know how long their nails are?"

"Relax! They won't hurt you if I'm around."

"Pfft, you're funny."

"Lukey pookey!" I hear one of his fangirls clacking down the hall. "Oh em gee, where were you yesterday? I missed you!"

I glare at Christina. I narrow my eyes at the sight of her hands wrapped around his upper arm. I roll my eyes at the sight. I slam my locker shut and walk to class.

•••

Lunch comes around and I have decide that I'm not eating lunch. I can't.

I walk into the cafeteria and find my table. I take a seat next to Bella and let out a long sigh.

"Tell me why you and Luke weren't at School yesterday and happen to pull up to school together today?" Bella asked.

"Well um, he stayed home with me yesterday to take care of me because I was sick. We showed up to school together today because well duh, he stayed the night."

"Mhm, you were sick."

I wish I could tell her the truth, it was because there were a bunch of people around and I felt like even if there weren't people I would get sick at the thought of it.

"I'll tell you the truth later, I just can't right now."

"Mhm, Okay."

I turn away from Bella and put my head down to rest. I just want to go home. I just want to be alone.

•••

While I'm resting my eyes, I feel a tap on my shoulder. I look up to see Bella and see that we're now alone.

"So, what really happened?" She asked.

"The real reason why I stayed home from school yesterday was because well, one I was actually sick and throwing up. Two I was..." I look away from Bella and play with my fingers. "...I was hurt." Is all I can choke out.

"What do you mean?"

"It's hard for me to say. I hate thinking about it." I shove my face in my hands. "I was sexually assaulted." I whisper to her.

I peek from behind my hand to see Bella's eyes wide. She had stopped eating her lunch. She gulps what's in her mouth then she grabs my wrist and pulls me out of the cafeteria.

"Who was it? Was it Luke? Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry!" She pulled me into a hug.

"It wasn't Luke, it was Garrett."

"That dude? Ewww! Why were you with him?"

"He asked to hang out and I thought what could go wrong? I barely knew this dude but my mom seems to approve of him and obviously I trust my mom. Since my mom likes this dude so much, I thought it wouldn't hurt to get to know him."

"Sounds like you. Do you not trust guys now?"

"Well I mean, I trust the guys I'm friends with."

"Well duh!"

"Summer!" Luke calls my name.

"Oh crap. I gotta go see ya!" I yell to Bella before booking it to my locker.

"Summer!" Luke calls again. I ignore him. "Hello, Summer!"

"Hello, Luke!"

"Why are you running from me?"

"I needed to get to my next class."

"Summer..." He bites his lip and looks at his watch. "The bell doesn't ring for another twenty minutes. We also happen to have the same class together." He said placing his hand on the locker next to mine.

"Um, extra credit? Okay bye I have to go now." I can't be seen with this dude! He's gonna ruin my life! His fangirls are going to find out where I live and claw my eyes out!

He grabs my wrist and pulls me back.

"Stranger danger! Stranger danger!" I yell.

"There's nobody in the hall Summer." I sigh in defeat.

"Okay fine, what do you want?"

"Um well, can you drop me off at Christina's house instead of my moms house?"

What the h-e-double hockey sticks? My mouth flies open and so do my eyes. Is he serious? I turn around and start to walk off but he pulls me back again.

"Incase you didn't get it, that was your answer dude. Now let go of me! I can't be seen with a douch like you!"

"Excuse me?" He growls.

"You heard what I said. Now either find a ride to that pimps house or I'll take you to see your mom."

He lets go of my wrist and takes a step forward. I take a step back.

"What are you implying?" He asked.

"Uh...uh...well... It's not exactly a good thing to sleep with every girl in our grade. I'm just trying to help you out." Fear shoots through my body as he gets closer. I'm implying that he's basically a walking STD.

He knocks the books out of my hands and onto the floor. Excuse me? I keep stepping back till my back hits the lockers. I clench my jaw and tense up. What is he doing?

He puts his hands on either side of my head.

"Summer, you're really pissing me off." He said through gritted teeth.

"Ha ha, isn't that what I always do? You also get angry too easy boy." I give him a nervous laugh. "Why are you even getting offended. I speak the truth! Or are you defending that bench you cheated with?"

"I'm defending myself! You make me sound like I'm a walking STD!"

"Um, because you are?" I should really know when to shut up.

He drops his head down and chuckles. He looks back up and the anger from his eyes are almost completely gone. Almost.

"You're lucky you're hot." He said twirling a strand of my hair.

I give him a sarcastic smile then swoop down to pick up my books. What a butthole! Once I've collected my books I stand back up. I narrow my eyes at Luke who's leaning on a locker with his arms crossed. When is he not?

"Bye bye handsome. See you in class idiot." I said bumping his shoulder as I walk to my next class.
