CHAPTER 8

I have a huge smile on my face—a huge, goofy smile. And it has nothing to do with the fact that Brad and Daphne have broken up and everything to do with my maybe-date with Gray yesterday.

We didn't go to a fancy restaurant—only at Jerry's—but it felt like we did, anyway. I had a really good time with him. And the steamy makeout session in his Jeep that followed afterward wasn't so bad, either.

Not so bad at all.

But back to Brad and Daphne—yes, they really called it quits. And everyone’s been talking about it with differing opinions. Some are mocking the fact that their relationship only lasted for a week. Others are wondering if I had anything to do with it.

Or if I’ll be happy to take Brad back now that’s he’s single again. Are we going to pick up where we left off and be the happy ‘IT’ couple again? The answer to both is a big fat NO, by the way.

I haven’t seen my douchebag of an ex though. But as I make my way down the hall, I spot Daphne crying in front of her locker, with Merritt Wayne and the rest of their clique consoling her. It doesn’t surprise me when they turn their heads in unison to shoot daggers when I walk past.

Not one to cower in fear, I respond with a wave and a mocking smirk. Call me a bitch, but I’m not feeling sympathetic toward their friend at all. As far as I’m concerned, she’s made her bed.

And as for their breakup? I frankly couldn’t care less.

There are a couple questions on my mind though. Am I really the reason why they broke up? And now that he’s single again, will he try to get back together with me?

But then again, maybe it’s only been a misunderstanding. Although, judging by the sound of Daphne’s sobs, it doesn’t seem like a simple misunderstanding. It sounds...final.

But those internal questions are simply out of curiosity and not because of some deep-seated feelings for the guy.

Honestly, I’m more preoccupied with my current status with Gray. What’s going to happen to us, moving forward? We haven’t really had the chance to talk yesterday—not about Brad, not about the status of our fake relationship.

But is it still a fake relationship when we already went out on a date—okay, still maybe-date—and have been kissing like a real couple?

Those kisses, ugh, they’re all I can think about. I’m officially addicted to them, and frankly, I can’t wait for the next time we’ll get to be alone. My lips throb and my skin heats up just thinking about it. And the thought of us "breaking up" makes every nerve in my body scream their refusal.

But we have to, right? One way or another, we're going to end our charade. It can't last forever. I can probably only give it another week.

What’s going to happen then?

"Why do you look so glum?" Allison prods while we're having lunch in the cafeteria. "Shouldn't you be celebrating? Your revenge worked.
