Layla’s pov

I’m tongue-tied. I’ve been avoiding him as best as I could. And now, he found me.

He stops in front of everyone, and they’re watching him like a hawk as he stares at my locker with his jaw ticking.

His back is rigid and by the waves that rolled off him, I knew he was furious.

And she wants Tyler, which was pretty obvious to everyone who had eyes and ears.

“I don’t waste my time on a nobody like you! What do you think I would gain by doing something like that to you Layla? It’s not like no one knows you’re a whore!” She yells angrily.
