"Why are you lying!" I yell and burst out in a laughing fit.

"I am not" Zoe defends and blushes.

"Really? So in that entire time you were with him, nothing happened.Bullshit."

Zoe scoffs. "I patched him up and that's it."

"SO you played nurse?" I ask with a smirk on my face.

"Ye-" she looks up at my face and her face morphs into one of disgust. "Not like that lady-perv"

"I didn't say a thing."

"you didn't have to. Plus, you know I wouldn't go there again with Asher. I am going to stick with crushing on the only two men who matter in my life: Dominic Sherwood and Francisco Lachowski."

"That model guy?"

"Chico, mhm."

I roll my eyes and chew on a grape. A finger dips down out of nowhere and steals a strawberry from my container. I look up to see Issac with a smirk on his face. He sits down besides me and Zoe winks at me.

Lord god.

"Hello beautiful" he says to me.

"Hey Zoe" he greets Zoe and she smiles.

"You cannot steal my fruit!"

"Yes, I can. I steal your food all the time."

"Yeah cause your a little b-"

"Bonfire!" Zoe yells out of nowhere. I look over to her utterly confused as to what the hell she is yelling about and she gives me a sheepish look and sips her ginger drink.

"So, I have a proposition for you" He says and bites into an apple that he brought with him.

"And that is?"

"My grandfather owned a stables a few towns down. I want to bring you there and I will teach you how to ride a horse and-" Issac is interrupted by Zoe choking on her ginger drink.

Dirty minded freak

"-and how they work and stuff." He slowly continues

"And what do I get in return?"

"A reminder of last night." He says and Zoe chokes on her drink again.

"Jesus Christ" I mumble under my breath.

"Sorry. This drink is just...so strong. You know, ginger and all"

Go to hell

"I think you want to see me fall off a horse and injusre myself."

"Now why would I want that?" He asks with a half-smirk on his face.

"Because you are Issac Evans."

"Fair point, but think about it on the brighter side, you get to learn something new."

Zoe mumbles something under her breath and both Issac and I look at her. Issac has an amused smirk on his face and he looks like he wants to laugh. Me, on the other hand, well lets keep it PG for once.

I will kill her.

"Zoe, I will say ths as nice as I possibly can, shut the hell up."

Zoe is biting her lip to try to contain her laughs, but in the end a bitch will be a bitch. SHe starts laughing. I rest my head on Issac's chest needing something calm to keep me sane. I flip Zoe the bird and then I wrap my arms around Issac's waist.

"You okay?"

"Yeah, just tired."

"You want a ride home after school?"

"You have time?"

"For you, yes."

"Awwwwww" Zoe gushes across from us.

"Can you be any more embarrassing Zo?" I fume. She just smiles and continues eating her food.

"Uh Bay actually after school, I was thinking of going to Giselle's house because she and some other students are forming a study group. I will catch a ride with her so you are on your own tonight." she gives me a wink telling me exact;y what her plan is.

Issac chuckles besides me and runs his hand up and down my back making me shiver against his warm touch.

"That was subtle Zoe" Issac tells her with a full toothed smile on his face.

The lunch bell rings and I unfortunately have to pull away from Issac.

"I will just clean all this up" Zoe mutters and picks up my trash and hers.

I take a deep breath and exhale slowly.

"See you after school." I promise and then walk off to my next class.

...

"Come on, just eat it"

"No! You lunatic."

"It won't kill you" Issac says and starts laughing.

"Don't you trust me?" He asks. I take a deep breath.

"Fine. Put it in my mouth already."

"This all sounds so wrong." he mutters. I swing a punch in I am hoping is his direction, but I miss. Damn these blindfolds.

"No need to think dirty, love" He says and I open my mouth so he could put whatever in my mouth. Issac and I are playing that game where you blindfold the person and you give them a food and they have to guess what it is.

The first thing I taste is hard chocolate. I bit into whatever it is and more chocolate bursts into my mouth, but the inside it soft. I chew the chocolate treat around in my mouth to try to determine what it is. I know what this is, I just can't put a name to it.

"Pop...pop..chocolate pop"

"Not the exact name" he says and I can hear the smirk in his voice.

I purse my lips in an act to try to think harder on the exact name of this treat that i for sure want more of.

"CAKE POP!" I yell and rip the blindfold off my eyes.

Issac has a smile on his lips and right beside him is a whole package of sprinkled cake pops. I grab one and put the delicious chocolate in my mouth.

"Hmmmm" I moan. "This is great. Where did you get it from?"

"A cake shop downtown that my dad invested in."

"Your dad invests in cake shops?"

"Yeah. If it was owned by my mother."

Silence falls on us and I can't tear my eyes away from Issac who has a sad smile on his face. I move closer to Issac and I sit on his right leg.

"Do you want to take me there some day?" I ask gently knowing this is a gentle topic and he could easily reject me.

Issac looks at me with a crease in between his eyebrows. "You would want to come to my mom's old cake shop?"

"Of course. This is something that is important to you, something you hold near and dear to your heart, so I want to know." I give him a small smile and I rest my head on his shoulder.

"You are extraordinary Bay Stewart." He says and puts his hand under my legs hanging off his right leg and brings them up to be rested over his left leg.

A yawn leaves my mouth and I instantly cover my mouth with my hand.

"I'm tired." I mumble against his chest, feeling my eyelids become heavy.

"Alright, lets go get you to bed. You have to change though."

"Oh yeah" I say and get up off him and go to my drawers and I take out a pair of tights and a tee that says 'I like you, but if zombies chase us, I'm tripping you'

"Can you turn around?" I awkwardly say and shift my footing.

"Uh yeah" He says and turns around facing the window. I quickly take off my shirt and put on the new tee. I take off my jeans and quickly try to put on the tights, but I accidentally trip and fall on the floor with a loud thud.

"Bay?" Issac asks and I can hear the worry in his voice.

"Don't turn around. I am not decent at all!" I warn because my cheeky underwear is on full display and that would be beyond embarrassing. Once I get the tights on, I stand back up and pull it on properly.

"You can turn around now." I say and pick up my clothes I wore today and put it in my dirty hamper. I walk back over to my bed and crawl under the covers.

"I can't stay tonight. My father is coming back from Venice."

"That's fine." I say and yawn. Issac leans down and plants a soft, chaste kiss on my forehead and then he walks to the door.

"Night beautiful"

"Night handsome" I yawn out and he chuckles before opening the door and closing it behind him.
