I Don't Care

Chapter 10

Making Amends

Applause and cheering is the first thing when I walk through those doors the following Monday from my recovery. Jay comes up behind me and looks around in confusion.

"Uh, Bea, what the hell-"

I cut him off, "I have no idea."

The crowd parts and Brick comes down the middle walking up to me. I raise a skeptical eyebrow, eyeing him in confusion.

"Did? Did you do this?" I asked a little unbelieving.

"What? Don't look so shocked, Bubbles. I am capable of being a nice decent guy when I want to be." He said smirking.

"Uh-huh." I said nodding a little still not believing that he did this.

"Why? What is this for?" I asked him, because seriously, everyone is acting like I'm some Goddess or something.

"This is to appreciate and thank you for making me see something I have been denying for so long. I used to think that harassing Jayson here was just some harmless fun, you made me see that's not what it was. I never realized that my actions might cause someone's death and Jayson, I really am sorry about everything." Brick explained.

Jay nodded, "It's fine. What's done is done, just as long as you keep to your word about backing off, we're good."

"I intend to keep it. And Bubbles, I know our past is shitty and I want to apologize for everything that I have done to you. I was young and stupid and I thought you were just way too good for me, so I pushed you away and I'm sorry for that. I never meant to hurt you like that, ever." Brick said looking down into my eyes, full of sincerity.

"Wow. Um, it's alright, things happen. I've forgiven you already but I haven't forgotten."

He nodded in understanding. "Also everyone is here to praise you for what you said to all of us on the football team. It really opened our eyes to reality."

I sighed, "Yeah, no problem." I said shrugging.

Soon after Brick's speech everyone dispersed and went their separate ways while Jay and I went to my locker to get my History textbook. Jay stopped slouching against the locker and bit his lip while smirking. I looked at him confused as I closed my locker and followed his gaze. Butch Jojo was walking this way to talk to me, I inwardly groaned and rolled my eyes. He is not my favorite person right now, how could he just stand back and let Brick do that to Jay? He's not the guy I thought he was and that hurts, hurts me bad. I actually liked him, like-liked him as in a way I want to kiss him and not stop, my attraction to him dwindled when I learn of what he did to Jay. I turn my back on him and walk away, but knowing him he catches up to me, probably using his powers.

He grabbed my arm, spun me around and kissed me. He didn't even give me time to react, my eyes widen at the shock of it but what's worse is I find myself kissing him back. Ugh! I'm supposed to hate him right now, stupid feelings! He pulls away, and I just look at him confused and shell shocked.

"Bubbles Utonium, I don't care what you must think of me after what happened in the locker room. Yes, I'm an asshole for just going along with it. Yes, I'm an asshole for just letting Brick do his thing to Jay and never getting in the way to stop it. I am an asshole for all those reasons and more. But I am an asshole who is completely crazy about you. You challenge my beliefs and make me question everything, you drive me to be the better man. You do this and so much more and I am 100% utterly in love with you and I want you to me my girl. But if you want me to just go away and leave you alone, I will. All you have to do is tell me." Butch said.

He's serious about this, I don't think he's been more serious about anything in his entire life. A smile slowly grows on my face and I reach up with my tiptoes and kiss him. It's his turn to be shocked.

"How the hell could you confess your undying love for a girl then say I'll leave you alone afterwards? You make so sense at all, you're infuriating, sarcastic and I couldn't love you any less. So yes, Butch Jojo, I'll be your girl."

A real genuine smile grows on his face and before I know it, he lifts me off the ground and kisses me. And in that moment I realize that this is only the beginning of something good.

Writing this story was really fun and I hope you all loved it as much as I do writing it, I'm so so so sorry that it took this long for me to complete it, but now that it is, I want you guys to know that I am honored by all my fans for supporting me in writing this and those who kept motivating me to get this done. Thank you all for your love and support, it really means alot to me. Now, on to the next story.
