Baby I'm A Sinner novel Chapter 12

The metal box was on his desk by the window, right next to an open MacBook Air. He was on Facebook-of course he was.

"So which is the book again?" he asked and sat down at his desk.

"Uh...just a minute." I mumbled and quickly fumbled through my backpack, trying to find it.

"Catcher In The Rye."

He took it out of my hand before opening a new tab and quickly typing the title in the search bar, adding 'chapter summaries' after.

"What are you doing?" I asked confused and stepped closer.

"Using the Internet for homework, like any other normal teenager."

"Yeah but this way you won't learn anything."

"Are you serious?" he asked looking up at me.

I shrugged and he rolled his eyes, turning his head back to the screen.

"Here it is. All chapter summaries. We just have to copy paste them on PowerPoint and learn the whole thing. Easy peasy."

"Lemon squeezy." I mumbled.

"What?"

"Nothing."

I'm such a weirdo

I awkwardly stood as he worked on the laptop, so after a few minutes of him copy and pasting, I decided to walk around the room. He didn't seem to mind; actually, he didn't even seem to notice.

He had a lot of posters on his wall, most of Sleeping With Sirens, My Chemical Romance and Kate Upton. He seemed to have a thing for...big breasts.

Oh God.

"You like Arctic Monkeys?" I asked when I saw the album lying on his dresser.

"Yeah they're cool."

"I like them too. I think they're coming to Manchester next year in February. But the tickets are only on sale in November."

"What artist puts tickets on sale three months before the actual concert?" Noah asked, not looking up from the laptop.

"They're going to sell out anyway so it doesn't matter."

Noah hummed in agreement.

Wow we actually had a normal conversation like two normal people

"Okay it's done." He announced five minutes later and I frowned, walking over to him.

He pointed at the twenty-eight slides on the screen.

"I don't think Mr. White will actually believe that we know words like 'marred' and 'preening'." I said as I quickly read through the first two chapter summaries. "And we need character development too."

"No we don't."

"Yes we do, he told us that today in class."

"He said it was optional. If a teacher says something is optional you never do it. Unless you have nothing better to do."

"And what do you have to do? Get high?"

"Maybe." He answered, not even bothered by my rude remark.

I rolled my eyes and he went through the slides once again before inserting a flash drive into the laptop.

He opened up his Finder after he saved the PowerPoint.

"Is that folder named gay porn?" I asked.

"Yeah."

"Didn't know you were...into that. Boys, I mean."

"I like both."

"Oh."

"Is that a problem?"

"No, I mean I'm not like a homophobe or anything I have the gayest guy in the world as a friend so."

He laughed and shook his head.

"So did you like...have sex with a guy from our school?"

He nodded.

"Who? Wait, you don't have to tell me-"

"Danielle, it's okay." He snorted.

Ew don't call me Danielle

"I fucked um-"

"So you're a top."

Jesus who the fuck asks that

"Do you get off on stuff like this?" he asked and I blushed, asking him to continue. It was a bit weird because he was sitting so he had to look up at me as he talked.

"I fucked Sean is year ten, not Sean Black from year 12, um two other guys from the swim team and Harry."

"Harry Sampson?"

"Yeah?"

"He's gay?"

"Duh." Noah laughed.

"Biggest and only fan." Emma added and Jake flipped us both off.

We got to school ten minutes before classes started and Jake parked in his usual parking lot. I tried my best not to roll my eyes when I spotted Noah in his usual spot, leaning against his motorcycle as he chatted up some skinny blonde girl with long brown hair.

"Oh my God what is this." Jake muttered to me as soon as Mr. Flack entered the classroom, wearing only a pair of dark jeans and a button up. "I'm literally going to have an eyegasm."

"That's not a thing." I told him before Mr. Flack started calling attendance.

He rolled his eyes at me.

"So how did it go with Noah yesterday?"

"Nothing happened."

"Nothing happened? What do you mean-"

"Mr. Macqueen is there anything you'd like to share with the class?" Mr. Flack asked and Jake went silent.

"No Sir."

"Well then. Please turn to your own desk and leave Ms. Piper alone."

Jake nodded and did as asked, not forgetting to shoot me a wink though. He had serious problems.

It seems that the whole school would be attending the came tonight, because literally all I heard on the hallways was 'game tonight', 'can't wait for hot dogs' and 'Noah is going to slay'. The last one may or may not have started from Jake.

"I'm starting so it's a pretty big deal." Jake praised himself at lunch, stuffing his mouth with salad and bread at the same time.

Who eats salad with bread

"Hey so um, you're going to the game tonight, right?" Harry asked me.

I nodded. "Yeah. Jake is kind of forcing me to go so."

"Do you want me to pick you up?"

"Sure." I said. "Will my cousin also fit in the car? Because my mother will most probably force me to ride with her."

"Sure. I'm picking up Lucas and Eleanor first. I'll be by your house at fifteen to seven because Lucas and Eleanor have to warm up."

"You seem to be really good friends with him."

"We've known each other since we were little."

"Oh."

Oh

That explains why they're so close

They're probably not even attracted to each other

"Why so interested Dani, hm?" Jake teased and I wanted to bash his face in.

He was so annoying sometimes.
