The Bad Boy’s Favorite Girl

Chapter Fifteen

Mac’s pov

I grabbed Elena and pulled her away from Liam, who was watching us closely. I despised being in this position because it gave Laim an advantage, making me seem vulnerable and giving the impression that I had feelings for Elena.

“What?” Elena said as she staggered before I held onto her tighter and dragged her away from everyone’s gaze.

“Come on,” I said as I pulled her against me and she closed her eyes drowsily and leaned against me.

“Who’s she to you?” I heard Liam ask from behind me, I turned to see him standing and placing the cigarette back on his lips, smirking proudly.

“None of your business” I responded briefly before walking out of Tisha’s house with Elena in my arms. I led us outside, slamming the door behind me and snatching my car keys from my pocket and beeping my car open.

As Elena sniffed, I opened the door and gently guided her into the passenger seat.

She let out a tired groan and rested her head against the headrest. I fastened her seat belt, making sure she was snug and secure.

I passed her mouth briefly and I found myself unable to draw away as I stared down at those pink lips.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

I trailed my eyes up her face, long eyelashes that rested against her round flushed cheeks. And long black wavy hair that fell past her face and rested on her shoulders.

She parted her lips and I jerked away, slamming my head on the roof of the car as she stirred at the noise. I quickly slammed the door carefully and went to the driver’s seat.

The sound of music played loudly from Tisha’s house and it sparked my anger once more.

What the hell had Tisha been doing inviting Liam and his friends over? She knew how much I hated him and it seems like she had done it on purpose. But for what?

I clenched my fist against the steering before I started the car zoomed off the front of the house and headed to my house.

I glanced at Elena who didn’t even stir as she slept.

She must have been drunk to even realise what she had been doing and I was glad I stopped her before she made the wrong decision by kissing someone like Liam.

A part of me was angry that I hadn’t stopped her from kissing Liam because of how she felt, but instead, it was because of how I felt.

I didn’t understand the surge of jealousy that filled me when I saw her lips just a few inches away from his.

The image flashed in my head and I slammed my fist against the steering at the thought of Liam kissing her.

She was too innocent for him to do so. And I suddenly regretted inviting her to the party.

This was going to have a great effect on both of us. Liam would take an interest in her as long as he knew I was involved.

I acted foolishly. I thought. If I had just allowed her to kiss him then things wouldn’t get this complicated later on.

I pulled up at the front of my house and glanced to see that the lights were turned off. It wasn’t like I was expecting anyone to be waiting for me at home since I lived alone.

I got out of the car and opened the door to Elena’s side, she was still asleep and I pulled off the seatbelt from her and scooped her into my arms.

I slammed the door and she jumped at the noise and held onto me tighter as she snored. I smiled as I headed into the house.

Thankfully, she wasn’t heavy in any way and I took her upstairs to my room, placing her gently on the bed.

I reached for her phone in her pocket and decided to call her best friend so they wouldn’t think that she had been kidnapped.

Looking at Elena, she didn’t look like the type to leave the home and sleep out either and I didn’t want her to lose the trust of her family for a drunken mistake.

I found her best friend, Vee and I dialed it.

A part of me wondered why she hadn’t even shown up for the party. She was more excited than Elena was when I invited the both of them earlier today.

Vee picked up immediately but before I could say anything she spoke quickly.

“I’m so sorry Elena dear, pinky-pinky sick so I had to take her to the vet so I couldn’t make it but I want you to give me all the details tomorrow at school.” She squeaked excitedly and I drew the phone away from my ear.

“Hello?” Vee said after a while and I sighed.

“This is Mac,” I said and I heard a surprise gasp leave her lips and I smirked at the reaction.

“Elena is drunk so I took her to my place.”

“She’s currently sleeping and I want you to cover up for her,” I said and I heard a dog barking before the sound of the door closing.

“If anything happens to her…” Vee’s voice trailed off before she coughed awkwardly. “Take a picture of her and send it to me. I need to be sure she’s ok.” She said before she ended the call and I sighed.

“You have weird friends,” I whispered and Elena adjusted her head against the pillow, as she snored soundly.

I took a picture and sent it to Vee who responded and I told her thank you before dropping her phone beside her.

I cleared my things away from the bed, giving her enough room to move around and stretch before I went downstairs to sleep on the couch.

The events of the night played again in my mind.

I thought of Elena unconsciously and it wasn’t until I realised I was smiling at the ceiling before I finally snapped out of it.

I scolded myself, “This wasn’t the time to start catching feelings.” I assured myself that these new unprofound feelings were just due to excitement.

There was no way someone like Elena was important to me, nor would I fall in love with someone like that.

Anyway, before closing my eyes, the picture of Elena was replaced by Diamond Foxx in my brain and I sighed in contentment and dozed off.
