Chapter 11- Samantha Jacobson

*groaning* “Guys we should wake her up.”

“Uh I think that’s a bad idea, she’ll knock you out cold she may look harmless but...”

“Let us just wait for the princess to awaken.”

“Aww look at Wadey being all so caring” “Guys shut up she’s going to wake up and slap us.”

"If no one is going to wake her up then I’ll just chuck her into the lake.”

I opened one eye to peep at the guys they all were giving Luke deadly looks.

Clearing my throat I woke up and said: “Luke, if I were you I wouldn’t have said that.”

Jayden muttering something about god please don’t let her hurt us was snapped out of his trance when Grayson greeted me.

“Morning Riley we were trying to wake you up…” Grayson greeted

“Hmm I see, so can you guys leave so I can change?” I said awkwardly

“Oh yeah.” Wade said before pushing everyone out of the room

Hmm what shall I wear, I don’t even know what’s the plan for today. Maybe we can all go on the boat. Yeah we have a family boat that hasn’t been used in years, I’m sure one of the guys knows how to steer that thing.

I hope Samantha isn’t at the Jacobson Lake house. Let me introduce you to Samantha Jacobson aka the so called queen of Rosewood High. Everyone looks at her as if she’s a goddess she has perfect hair, perfect body and perfect life. I can honestly say that I hate her, she made my schooling life a misery it only got worse after my dad died. She bullies me not physically but mentally, I know it’s stupid that I allow her to ill treat me but I don’t have the guts to stand up for myself. Don’t get me wrong I can knock her out cold but I don’t know maybe in a way I scared of her.

Pushing all these uneasy thoughts aside I walk into my bathroom, do my business and have a bath. I decided on using denim shorts and a white t- shirt with queen B written on it. I honestly forgot my hair is still blue, the colour will only fade away after a month I think.

I got dressed up and went downstairs only to hear shouting.

“I want to watch cartoons!”

“I want to watch a Horror movie!”

“Comedy!”

“CARTOONS!”

“Guys shut up!” I shouted

“B-b-but I want to watch cartoons.” Luke said with puppy eyes

“Luke not the puppy eyes.” I said looking everywhere but his face

“Riley we’re having a small debate why don’t you choose what to watch.” Emmette said

“Uh okay…” okay now this is weird they made sit at the head of table and they all are so serious and waiting for me to speak

“So Miss Mathews your options for this morning are: comedy, horror or cartoons.” Emmette says with a straight face

“And Romance!” Jayden shouts from the lounge.

“Besides romance I am not watching that sappy nonsense.” Wade said rolling his eyes

“Yeah you’ll only watch it with Riley.” Luke muttered

“Did you say something Luke?” Wade questioned squinting

He shook his head. “Riley choose.”

“I-I uh” I couldn’t choose so I went for an option that wasn’t mentioned

“ACTION MOVIE!” I grinned. I looked around and saw everyone shocked well besides Wade who had a smirk on his face

“That wasn’t an option.” Emmette said rolling his eyes

“If angel says she wants to watch an Action movie then action movie it is.” Wade says with finality in his voice

“So bossy.” Luke snickers

Just before we could go to the movie room the doorbell rang. Who could that be?

“Guys I’ll be right back.” I went to the door and opened it. Why aren’t I surprised…

“Hello Miley or whatever your name is. You and I both know I don’t want to be here but my parents insist I invite you to my party. Oh and your hair looks like crap.” Samantha says with a snarl. Ignoring her last comment I said…

“Uh okay, but I won’t be attending.” I said before closing the door but her foot jammed the door. Pushing her way inside she sees Wade and flags him down.

“Wade!!! What a coincidence, what are you doing at her * points to me* house?” she says from an overly sweet tone to one of disgust. Wade just sighs.

“Hi Samantha the guys and I just came to spend some time her.” Wade says

“Well love I came to give you a personal invitation, to come to my party with your friends and it starts at 6.” She says showing her pearly whites

“Thanks we’ll be there.” He says with a forced smile

“Great I’ll save you a seat, oh and I love your hair.” She says with a wink. I think she forgot I‘m still here.

“That won’t be necessary and my girl chose my hair colour.” he says shifting from one leg to another and then smiles at me. I just blushed and smiled back.

“Nonsense, anyway I’ll see you later Wade.” She says winking and walking out not without stopping to glare at me.

“Well thank god that’s over, shall we go to the theatre?” Wade says smiling

“Hmm lets go.” I said quietly.

Wade told the guys about the party and surprisingly they all don’t like her. But we decided on going because we get to dress up and hey who doesn’t like free drinks.

We all got settled in and watched an action movie. Grayson had left during the second movie to cook something for us. Might I say he’s a great cook.

After the 2 movies we went into the game room while Emmette and Luke were busy playing video games, Jayden and Grayson were busy chatting and Wade and I were busy playing pool.

After 2 games I told Wade I was going to get changed. I really don’t feel like going but since the Jacobsons invited me I wouldn’t want to seem rude and not go. I chose a white off shoulder dress and pair of sneakers. My hair goes perfect with my dress, maybe I’d just keep this colour.

I straightened my hair added some lipstick and highlighter and I was ready. By now the guys were ready because Jayden informed me they were going to change and wait for me.

I walked downstairs and everyone stopped talking, they just stared at me with their mouths wide open. Wade was the first to break the silence.

“Y-you look absolutely beautiful.” He says breathlessly

“Yeah you do Ry-Ry.” Jayden said and Grayson smiled

Luke wolf whistles and by the looks of it Wade didn’t like that.

“So are we ready to go?” I said after thanking them for their compliments

“Yes and Riley throughout the night you will be with us, no wondering around by yourself.” Jayden says

“We don’t want anyone to flirt with you because damn girl you look hot.” Grayson says smiling.

“We all go in together and we stick together throughout the night.” Wade said

We got into the car and drove off it was only a 5 minute drive, we took the car because these dummys want to get drunk and I’m the designated driver.

We arrived at the front yard of the Jacobsons and might I say I already feel like leaving because:

1} My hair is blue, all of Samanthas friends will laugh at me

2} Some people from school will notice Wade and I are matching which will stir up gossip\rumours

3}I can’t get drunk because I’ll speak the truth and there are a shit ton of things people can’t know

When we walked in the smell of alcohol instantly filled my nose. Sweaty drunk people crowded the living room. I don’t know how her parents allow her to throw such parties.

Before someone can say Edward Cullen Luke disappears into the crowd.

“So much for sticking together.” I muttered sarcastically

“Oh Hi there guys welcome to my extravagant lake house party. Just make yourself at home and if you need anything. Just. Call. Me.” Samantha says in a high pitched tone and directs her last statement to Wade. She walks of swaying her hips but bumps into someone during the process.

Oh and btw she’s using a Bright Pink dress that stops mid thigh and her blonde hair is curled, she truly looks like a Barbie doll.

“If you need anything just call me.” Jayden teases Wade

“Guys lets just go and enjoy ourselves.” Grayson says sighing

“Anyone want a drink?” 1 drink won’t hurt right?.

The guys were busy lounging and I wanted to get myself a cider instead I decided on a shot of tequila so when they were busy chatting I snuck away. As soon as I entered the house people were staring at me, now when I’m walking through the crowd I’m attracting attention. Unknown guys were staring at me with lustful eyes and the people who knew me stared at me with disgust.

You see over the years I’ve been bullied for either not having a flat tummy, for being too shy and for being different from the other cool kids. Which automatically makes you a freak and over the years I didn’t do anything to stop it. Another reason for me being bullied: I’d rather read a book and sketch rather than sitting and entertaining a guy.

“Well well well, looks like someone is trying hard to gain my babys attention.” Samantha taunts

Its more like the other way around. I rolled my eyes.

“Aw is the freak talking to herself?” she smirks

“Can you please leave me alone. I didn’t come here to pick a fight.” I said

“Whatever, I just want you to do me a favour and stay the hell away from Wade. He is not yours and will never be interested in you so back the hell up.” She sneers

“Okay listen to me and listen carefully Samantha, Wade and I are friends. I don’t care whether he’ll ever like me or not alright. I don’t interfere in your life so I’d appreciate it if you stayed the hell away from mines.” I said fuming. I am tired of people treating me like a piece of shit…that shot tequila is kicking in.

By now everyone in the kitchen heard our little exchange and everyone stopped to watch. I took a deep breath in and looked around everyone was shocked that I stood up to her normally I just stay quiet. When Samantha recovered from her shock she charged towards me and pinned me against the wall…well at least tried to.

“Who do you think you are! Just because you hang out with Wade now don’t think you so amazing.” she screeched and raised her hand to slap me, I waited for the impact to come…

A few seconds went past and everyone in the kitchen were dead silent. I opened my eyes and saw Wade standing in front of me holding Samanthas arm.

“What the hell is wrong with you! Samantha you are lucky that you’re a girl otherwise only god knows what I would’ve done to you.” Wade seethed

Yanking back her arm, she looks Wade dead in the eye and starts crying.

“Wade how could you take her part? She was the one insulting me. Worthless piece of cr-” She fake cries

“I can’t deal with your fake shit. None of us even wanted to attend this party, but we did so we don’t seem rude. I need to thank you Samantha for giving me a reason to leave this place.” Wade finishes and pulls me out of the kitchen

We walked through the crowd and I got outside and went straight into the passenger seat. Wade was busy looking for the rest of the guys to ask if they were staying. They all ended up coming back with me but they didn’t know what had happen.

It was getting harder and harder to hold back my tears. The guys had returned just when a tear had slipped out.

“Riiillleeyyyy, what’s wrong my love why you saaaaaad?”Luke says pouting in his half drunken state

“I just want to be alone for now, I’m sorry I ruined your night.” I whispered

“To be honest I didn’t want to even attend this stupid party. And we will give you some time alone.” Wade says with a half smile

When we got home, I jumped out the car and ran straight inside and into my room. I kept on replaying what happened. Who knew that I could overthink to the point where I cried myself to sleep. At least tomorrow I can go to the gym and prepare myself for the fight, I have enough power and energy to ace this.

***Wades POV***

[Before they left for the party]

*daydreaming* “Yo bro you need to get dressed Riley will be done any minute.” Emmette told

I glanced at my watch, I don’t even feel like going to this stupid party. Don’t get me wrong I like to party but just not with Samantha. That girl is way too clingy and fake to even start off with.

When she came and invited Ry for the party I was hoping she would decline but…

After we watched a couple of movies, Riley and I played pool. She excused herself and got ready.

It didn’t take long for me to get ready. I won’t lie, when Riley walked downstairs I couldn’t help but stare. She looked stunning, I couldn’t believe my eyes.

“Y-you look absolutely beautiful.” I tell her breathlessly

I need to have a word with Luke he better stop whistling.

***At The Party***

I didn’t let Riley out of my sight, I saw Samantha but avoided her. I could see that Riley didn’t like the idea of being here. I was so engrossed in what these guys were talking about that I didn’t see her slip away.

I told the guys I was going to look for her, I didn’t know where to start off. I tried the game room, she wasn’t there so I tried the kitchen. As I walk through the kitchen door I see a big commotion going on, everyone is just standing by and watching.

“Whatever, I just want you to do me a favour and stay the hell away from Wade. He is not yours and will never be interested in you so back the hell up.”

“Okay listen to me and listen carefully Samantha, Wade and I are friends. I don’t care whether he’ll ever like me or not alright. I don’t interfere in your life so I’d appreciate it if you stayed the hell away from mines.”

What the hell is going on here.

“Who do you think you are! Just because you hang out with Wade now don’t think you so amazing.” I felt like taping her mouth shut.

She tried to slap Riley I wasn’t going to allow it, so I grabbed her arm.

What the hell is wrong with you! Samantha you are lucky that you’re a girl otherwise only god knows what I would’ve done to you.” I seethed

Yanking back her arm, she looks at me dead in the eye and starts crying.

“Wade how could you take her part? She was the one insulting me. Worthless piece of cr-” She fake cries

“I can’t deal with your fake shit. None of us even wanted to attend this party, but we did so we don’t seem rude. I need to thank you Samantha for giving me a reason to leave this place.” I finished and pulled Riley out.

I left her in the car and went back inside to call everyone. One look at Emmette and he knows not to mess with me, quietly they all walk back to the car.

Before we entered I told what had happened and they were also angry. What made me more angry was that Riley wanted to cry when I left her in the car.

When we got back home I wanted to just hold her in my arms and tell her that everything will be okay and Samantha was just talking crap. But instead I gave her the space she needed. Lets hope tomorrow when we go back to school things will get much better.

“Riley everything will get better it’s my promise to you.” I whispered leaning my head against her door. I went back into my room and fell asleep wandering whether she is okay.
