The Bad Boy’s Favorite Girl

Chapter Fourteen

Elena’s pov

The room fell into silence as everyone stared at me in disbelief. I suddenly realized my mistake and quickly pulled my hand away from Mac, who looked equally shocked.

I looked up to see Liam staring at me in confusion, like he was trying to figure out why I had held Mac like that but Tisha quickly stepped in the center of them, drawing the attention back to herself.

“Calm down boys. I invited the savage brothers so everyone should welcome them tonight.

It’s a new semester and it’s good if we start on a good plane, for tonight let’s forget we are enemies and party all night!” Tisha yelled and everyone roared in response.

The music came back on and everyone continued what they had been doing, instantly forgetting that there was a fight that had almost broken out moments ago.

Henry and Jack left the scene and headed out to grab some drinks. Leaving Liam, a girl, and another guy at his side.

I turned to Mac who still hadn’t moved or shifted his gaze from Liam and a part of me was worried about him.

This was the first time I had ever seen him extremely angry and it felt strange not having him hover around me giving snarky remarks.

“Come on guys, let’s play truth or dare,” Tisha said, pulling the girl into the group as others followed to the seat facing us.

I looked up at them to see Liam’s gaze fixed on mine and he placed the cigarette back in his lips and took his seat.

I looked away, shivering at the attention and hating myself when the images around me became blurry and I lost my balance.

Mac finally snapped out of his thoughts and held onto me.

“You’re drunk.” He said I nodded absentmindedly before he led me back to our seats and pulled my head against the headrest.

“Once the game is over, I’ll take you home.” He said to me, pushing my hair away from my face and I felt shivers run down my spine at his touch before I nodded, closing my eyes.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Let’s play. This time, there’s no backing out. Whatever you’ve been dared to do or asked, you must do it.” I heard Tisha say and everyone agreed.

I could feel holes burning into me and I opened my eyes to see Liam’s intense stare at me, I closed my eyes quickly wondering why he was suddenly looking at me when he never even spared me any glance before now.

I heard Tisha spin the bottle and everyone held their breaths before it finally came to a stop, this time I opened my eyes to see who it was pointing at it to see it was pointing at me. My blood ran cold.

I saw Tisha smirk as everyone waited for me to say something. Why did the bottle have to land on me now? Luck was never on my side and I groaned as I sat up.

“Truth or Dare?” Tisha asked, folding her arms below her chest.

I was just about to say Truth when Mac spoke from beside me.

“She can’t play, she’s drunk and not feeling well.” He said and Tisha shook her head.

“That’s not the rule, Mac, everyone must play, drunk or not.” She responded and I saw a few people nod at that and I sighed, sitting properly before responding.

“Dare,” I said before I realized what I had said. I gasped in shock. No. No.. I had meant to say Truth but my thoughts were all shambled in my head.

“No. No. I meant Truth.” I said quickly, standing up and waving my hand in front of me but Tisha laughed and Mac sighed in defeat.

“You can’t go back on your words. If you pick one that’s it, you can’t change.” Tisha said, smiling at me before waving at me and I fell back to my seat.

I could only pray she gave me something simple to do because, with the savage brothers here, I didn’t want anything that would be embarrassing and would spread out to their school.

I had tried my best to keep myself under the wraps and avoid attention only for it to be thrown away through a stupid high school game.

When Tisha smiled, I knew immediately that she wasn’t going to go easy on me.

And worst of all, there was no escape from it, she had ruled out choosing to drink instead and I knew now that whatever she asked me to do, I had no choice but to do so.

My heart thumped loudly in my chest as I waited for her dare, and the other students watched in anticipation as a lot of students who had been busy doing their business had gathered around us to watch the game.

“I dare you to kiss Liam,” Tisha said and my blood ran cold, everyone gasped as a smirk filled her lips at my reaction.

I turned to Liam who was shocked as well before he smiled mischievously at me, his cold eyes glittered before shifting to Mac who had stiffened beside me.

I saw Liam relax against his chair as I finally dragged myself to my feet, my heart thumped loudly in my chest and my palm grew sweaty.

I didn’t want to kiss Liam, I barely knew him and I knew he hated Mac, as Mac also did. And as much as I didn’t want to admit it, Mac and I were kinda friends now and it seemed like a betrayal.

I slowly walked towards him and the students started to clap and hit the tables in rhythm.

My heartbeat threatened to jump out of my chest as I neared Liam who had taken out the cigarette from his lips and huffed the smoke in the air.

I felt chills run down my spine and goosebumps filled my skin and I got closer to him and started to lean in. Liam kept his gaze on me as I neared his lips, and I closed my eyes. I wanted to just do this and get away quickly.

When I was just a few inches close to his lips, my heart thumped loudly and I leaned closer, wanting to close the gap between us when I felt someone grab onto my arm and pull me away from him.

I stumbled to see Mac was the one who had pulled me back and he held to my waist protectively and glared hatefully at Liam.
