Chapter Twenty Nine

The hallway was bustling after lunch, students chattering and rushing to their next classes. I was making my way to English when i felt a sudden, sharp tug on my arm. Before I could protest, I was pulled into the dimly lit janitor's closet.

His smirk only deepened. "You don't care, huh?"

Before I could respond, he closed the distance between us, his hand tilting my chin up. Then, without warning, his lips were on mine.

Reality snapped back into focus.

He sighed but set me down gently, his hands lingering for just a moment before
