Amora

1 week later

I tapped my nails on the counter looking over all the food options, before huffing and finally grabbing a packet of carrots.

I sighed ripping open the plastic beginning to take one out, and took a bite from it.

I looked around spotting Carrie that sat a table, that was of course reapplying her lipstick what else?

I continued to chew as I began to walk over when the sudden feeling of cold liquid dribbled down from my head to clothes.

I let out a gasp immediately looking down seeing my clothes covered in milk, before turning around to see Aubrey who stood with a smug smile.

"Oops, my bad I didn't see you there" she laughed, throwing a milk carton into the trash can.

"You fucking cunt!" I exclaimed, angrily wiping  my now wet cheeks.

"Oh I'm sorry me? The cunt?" She shouted, immediately catching the entire rooms attention.

"You. You're the reason why those boys hate me. You're the reason why I can't play baseball anymore?" she continued, pushing at my shoulder.

"You, you got me kicked out of there" She spat, shoving my shoulder again.

"Hold on me? Uh.. no, you're the one here who completely decided to get with Edward when you absolutely knew I liked him!" I defended, pushing her hand away.

"Well he clearly didn't? He doesn't want to be around a little skank anyways" She snickered, perking her eyebrows up.

"What did you call her?" Carrie shrieked, immediately rushing over.

"I said a skank you moron" Aubrey leaned in, spitting into her face.

Immediately I scoffed, whipping around and snatching a yogurt cup before chucking it at her.

She let out a gasp once the yogurt splattered onto her, squinting her eyes in anger before quickly grabbing onto a plate of food.

Immediately I did the same snatching a plate from a kid that walked by, before throwing it at her while yelling many things to each other.

"You little slut! How dare you!" Aubrey groaned, throwing a tray at me.

"Me! Oh you now don't remember how.. you cheated on that one kid with how many guys? Oh I don't know.. two?" I mocked, titling my head.

She visibly grew more angry from the mention of it, quickly grabbing more things.

We continued to shout and throw things at each other, soon creating a huge mess, before getting pulled away and turned around.

"Hey-hey! What is going on?" Benny shouted over us, pulling me away.

"Her! You're what's going on!" I shouted, pointing back towards Aubrey.

"Oh but you're the one who started throwing food at me right?" She questioned, now titling her head mockingly.

We both continued to shout many things at each other over whose fault it was, with the sandlot boys who stood behind looking very amused glancing back and forth between us.

"Oh shit it's a chick fight!" Kenny exclaimed, looking between the both of us in excitement.

"Who you betting on?" He questioned, turning towards the group as he rubbed his hands excitedly.

"I don't know.. Amoras kind of scrappy but she hits hard. I know.. sadly..from experience" Squints sighed, pushing up his glasses before crossing his arms.

"Will you idiots stop it! This isn't some live match or something!" Carrie scolded, smacking both of their heads.

"Ugh if it wasn't for you i would still be playing at the sandlot and be dating Edward!" Aubrey shouted angrily.

"You just mess everything up. Don't you?" She continued, titling her head lightly.

"Well sheesh you couldn't have controlled yourself and-

She cut me off by groaning and throwing another plate of food at me.

I dropped my mouth looking down at the plate that stuck too my clothes, slowly peeling it off.

"That's it! I've had it with you!" I shouted, throwing the plate down before beginning to stomp over towards her

Immediately Benny and Carrie both stood in front of me, quickly stopping me from going any further."Hey, hey? just take a moment to calm down you're going insane right now" Benny suggested, gripping onto my arm and pulled me back.

"Yeah Amora! Think about your nails, they're going too totally be messed up!" Carrie quickly added, grabbing onto my other arm.

"Oh I don't care!" I shouted over them, snatching my arms away from their grips.

"Yeah leave it guys she's got to get her anger out somehow!" Kenny called out, with the boys holding in their laughter behind him.

"Oh my- Denunez you're not making this any better!" Carrie exclaimed, shooting him a glare.

My eyes met Aubrey who sent me a slight smirk making me push them both away from me.

Quickly Carrie pulled me back once seeing me begin too walk off, with Benny who grabbed onto my hand and began to drag me away.

"Hey- you morons! Let me go" I shrieked, immediately trying to pry my hands away.

"Awe man so no chick fight?" Ham called out, throwing his hands up impatiently

Benny rolled his eyes at him before quickly beginning too walk out of the cafeteria, with Carrie who grabbed my bag from off the table and followed behind.

Aubrey sent me another smug smirk, placing her hands on her hips before lifting up the finger towards me.

Immediately my eyes widened feeling my anger go through the roof now, making me quickly reach over and grab a soda can from the nearest table. Throwing it at her before getting the door shut on me.

I groaned watching as they both dragged me towards an empty room, quickly snatching my hands away from them once entering the room.

"What is wrong with you two?" I shouted immediately throwing my hands up, looking between the two with fury.

Once getting no response as they looked to each other not having a clue who to say, I let out a groan from anger before trying to push past them again.

"No no girl you got to relax" Carrie quickly set me back down onto a desk.

"Why? Look at me I'm covered in food from that troll!" I shouted over her immediately, motioning down to my clothes.

"Because you've got too much class for that girl, I let you have your food fight with that witch but I stop it once you get all physical" Carrie scolded, pulling out a box of tissues from a closet.

"Oh Carrie I absolutely do not care right now. I feel like I'm seeing red and I just want too-

"You're going to burst your cords or something if you keep yelling, calm down" Benny cut me off, sighing as he grabbed onto my hands.

I looked between the two seeing them both nod making me groan again, sitting back down as I held in a scream from complete rage.

"I'll go get her some clothes from her locker. Just.. clean up as much as you can. Oh your poor shoes I can't stand to look at them!" Carrie sighed, handing the box to Benny before leaving.

I shook my head looking down as I crossed my arms, hearing her heels click through the room before the door opened and closed.

"You have too look up you know" Benny sighed, pulling out a tissue from the box before setting it down aside me.

I huffed finally looking up to see him crack a small smile before he began to wipe off the food from my face.

"Gosh I'm so pissed. Holy crap I think I'm shaking!" I gasped, looking down to my shaking hand.

"Yeah you are... are you ok?" He questioned, looking up from my hand back towards me.

"Yeah, I'm fine. God, she sure knows how to get under my skin" I muttered, shaking my head angrily.

I sighed, looking back up at him seeing his eyebrows knit together slightly as he continued to clean off my face.

"Benny?" I whispered softly from how quiet it was in the room, making me think I should lower my voice.

"Yeah?" He sighed, flicking his gaze to my eyes briefly before looking away.

I stared at him, with my heart beginning to thump and my stomach turn at what I was even thinking about saying.

"Can I tell you something?" I slowly questioned, clearing my throat as I sat up straighter.

"Yeah?" He repeated, shifting his attention back towards me.

"You know..you were right. When you said I had feelings.. for someone" I trailed off, looking down to my fingers as I fiddled around with them.

His eyebrows rose and his eyes slightly widened, being taken back by what I said."For who?" He questioned.

I stared at him, feeling my stomach twist and turn at what I was about too say next.

"Uh well.. " I trailed off, slowly looking up at him as I immediately regretted even saying anything.

"For who Amora?" He repeated, lowering the tissue and stepping back once seeing I wasn't replying.

I stared at him, letting out a light huff as I shook my head. "You Benny" I muttered, looking down to the floor in embarrassment.

He stared back at me slowly opening his mouth too say something, yet nothing came out.

"Yeah I know I'm sorry. I really shouldn't have said-

"I like you too" he blurted suddenly, immediately cutting me off.

I paused, raising up my eyebrows in shock."You do?" I questioned, widening my eyes slightly.

He nodded, making a small smile slowly crack onto my face at his words.

"Really? Are you sure?" I repeated, titling my head, being confused and unsure if I heard correctly.

He rolled his eyes before shaking his head."No. I'm not"

Immediately my heart dropped making him smile and let out a light laugh at my expression.

"Just kidding. I'm sure, very" he assured, shaking his head with a smile.

"Ugh don't do that!" I groaned, pushing at his shoulder angrily.

He laughed looking down to the tissue in his hands as silence began to grow between us.

"So.. now what?" I slowly questioned, looking down at the floor nervously.

He didn't reply as we continued too stare back at each other, making the familiar sound of my heart thumping return.

"Can I uh.. can I kiss you?" He asked softly, slowly averting his gaze back down nervously.

My lips slowly spread into a smile before  nodding, confirming that he could continue.

We both met eyes again falling into an intense stare, before we slowly began to lean in towards each other.

He let out a small huff gently grabbing onto my chin, pulling my head up and closer making our lips finally meet.

Instantly it felt like millions of butterflies erupted in my stomach, with my entire body just going numb, and I quickly melted into the kiss.

"Goodness god Amora your locker has like totally everything! I got so lost looking at everything!" Carries voice suddenly erupted, with a small frustrated huff afterwards.

We both pulled away immediately whipping our heads over to see Carrie who walked into the room, struggling as she dragged in a bag on the floor.

She grunted finally letting the straps go, wiping off her shirt before looking up, immediately furrowing her eyebrows at us.

"What's happened?" She questioned, looking between us both.

I bit onto the inside of my cheek cracking a small smile as Benny and I glanced at each other.

"Uh.. I don't know what that means here guys? I don't speak silence" She continued, looking between the two of us in confusion.

She walked over, crossing her arms and tapped her foot as she glanced at the both of us.

Slowly the confused expression on her face washed, widening her eyes in realization while quickly looking back and forth between us.

She let out a loud squeal making me jump from the suddenness, as she clapped her hands, reaching over to hug us before immediately pausing.

She titled her head, looking down at my still food covered clothes. Shaking her head as she took a step back.

"Uh..we'll save the hugs for later" she laughed, motioning down to my clothes.

"Holy shit I got to go spill to the boys!" She shouted, immediately widening her eyes.

She stepped back and stared at the both of us for a moment before letting out another excited scream, as she quickly rushed out of the room.
