Baby I'm A Sinner novel Chapter 8

I wanted to turn away from him, but he did it before I could do anything. He leaned over and whispered something into Liam's ear, who looked me up and down, then nodded.

My stomach felt empty (because it was-I had a glass of orange juice for breakfast) at the thought of what he could've said to Liam. I hated him so much; it was unreal.

"Hudson, take that sweatshirt off there are twenty five degrees in here!"

"I'm fine coach." Noah answered, wiping of his sweaty forehead.

"At least pull your sleeves up or you'll get a heat stroke!"

"I'm fine." Noah repeated and returned to the game.

The rest of first period was spent with the boys playing basketball and the girls looking at them.

"So we're still on for tonight yeah? I'll pick you up at eight." Jake told me when the game was over. Coach Adams said that there were three more minutes left until we could go and change which was stupid, but anyway.

"I'm not coming to Noah's party."

"Why not? It'll be fun. And I promise that if we both don't find someone to hook up with, I'll make out with you."

"I don't-"

"She doesn't want her first kiss to be before marriage, does she?" Noah's voice was heard and I screamed inside because I was about to lose it.

"Can you go away please." I said annoyed.

"I can't because you're the only one here that didn't wish me a happy birthday."

I snorted. "Happy birthday then."

He shook his head. "So you're not coming at my party then?"

"No."

"Why not?"

"Because I don't like you."

"At least there will be more food for me." He answered and I honestly wanted to cry because that actually hurt.

"You can go now! Class dismissed!" coach yelled and everyone groaned thankfully, before we started walking towards the changing rooms.

"Hey, um, Jake?" I asked once we walked out on the hallway. We were headed towards our lockers to get our French books.

"Yes?"

"Pick me up at eight."

"I'm going to the party too." I announced to my mom as soon as she entered the door at half past five.

"Good for you." She answered and let her keys fall in the small bowl by the door. "Your father can take you."

"That won't be necessary, Jake will pick me up."

"Jake? Is there something going on here?"

"Mom. He is literally gay."

"Oh."

I rolled my eyes and turned around, running up the stairs to start the preparations for the party. I showered and went to the closet to pick out the clothes.

As much as I wished to wear a skirt or a crop top I couldn't because I didn't want people to see me dressed in that and think that I was too fat to wear those.

I picked out a black low-cut tank top that showed some cleavage, black skinny jeans and black studded Vans. And yes, black was my favorite color. After that I walked over to the bathroom so I could put make up on.

It was five to eight when Jake sent me a text. I was in the process of fighting with my cat, who wouldn't let go of the sleeve of my black jacket.

Jake: bitch we just left my house be ready in like NOW!!!!!

Dani: take a chill pill

I stuffed my phone in the pocket of my jacket and after I checked myself in the mirror one last time, I rushed downstairs.

"I'm leaving now! I don't know when I'll be back!"

"Come back with Jade!"

"OKAY! BYE!" I yelled and slammed the front door behind myself. It appeared that Jade and my dad had already left. Thank God.

Zack's BMW pulled up in front of my house two minutes later, and I quickly climbed in the back.

"You can sit on my lap." Harry offered and I shook my head.

"Everyone in junior and senior year was invited. And some freshmen are probably going to crash it anyway."

"This is crazy."

"And there's a whole year filled with these parties coming." He said and winked, before he put an arm around me.

Out of all the people I knew personally, Jade, Luke, Sean and Kylie were the only ones who had arrived. Of course I knew some other people, but just by name.

"Where's Noah?" Jake asked the first person he saw (of course he was friends with everyone).

"Kitchen." The girl answered and Jake thanked her, before he told me to follow him.

The kitchen was right across the hall and was pretty full when we got there. I wasn't even surprised to see that it was two times bigger than my bedroom and was fully equipped.

I immediately spotted Noah. It hadn't been hard, since he had the loudest laugh in the entire room and was also the tallest in the room. He was probably around 185cm. Which was unfortunate, since I wasn't taller than 165.

"Happy birthday!" Jake screamed over the music once we got to Noah. He turned his head to look at us and smirked when his eyes fell on me.

He was wearing a white tee with something written on it, blue skinny jeans that weren't even clinging to his thighs because they looked as if they came from a chicken. He was wearing Vans too and a snapback that was turned around. He had some band bracelets on his right wrist that didn't really fit the outfit but oh well.

And I wasn't going to ever admit it, but he looked really good. I had a weakness for boys who dressed like that.

"Thanks. I see you decided to come after all."

I didn't answer because if I did, I was afraid that I'd say something really rude.

"So you're not talking to me then?"

"I'm not wasting my time talking to you."

"You just did."

Wow u so smart

Idiot

"Where can I put my jacket?"

He smirked and I wanted nothing but to slap those cocky smirks off his face.
