A Deal With the Popular Boy Chapter Nine
Leah's P.O.V "Mum what do you think?" I asked her, bringing the top up to my chest. "Is it the boy who dropped you off on Tuesday?" She replied with a question, ignoring mine. I sigh out and throw the umpteenth shirt on the bed, looking through my closet for yet another cute top I owned. "Its not necessarily him.." She gasps at my response making me realize how that might have come off. Shit. "Li!" I turned back and looked at my mum. "Mum, its complicated. I know it seems like I've changed into someone new but I haven't. I'm still the same person and I really don't wanna disappoint you and dad." There. I said it. I knew tht was what they had been thinking so it was only right I said it. Ever since I walked out on them, I'd be feeling so guilty and the constant reminder that I was proving to be a disappointment as their daughter kept on punching me in the chest. It hurt. Mum looks at me for a moment before yelling"Honey, get in here!" "Mum I'm going to be late for my date." I

Leah's P.O.V One of my wishes since I knew what the word 'school' was, has always been to be among in high school. Be part of the cool kids and live life to the fullest before going to university and it was finally happening- just not in the way I hoped. How you ask? It first started the day after my first tutoring lesson with Mason. At first, he came up to me at my locker and said hi which was surprising. I knew it was weird but I didn't want to think too much of it which is why I said hi back. My wish became granted during lunch. Mason called me over to sit with him at his table. The table. That was where the most popular students sat. For you to sit there, that means you were at the toppest top of the popularity food chain in school and me being invited there, let's just say I was on my way to becoming as popular as Mason Kings. The students in the cafeteria all looked shocked, everyone's eyes glued on me as I made my way to the table and set my food down, sitting besid

Leah's P.O.V If someone had told me that I was going to be having dinner with Mason Kings and his mum, I wouldn't bother suggesting and straight up call the asylum on them. It was like saying I was going to become the next Picasso. Pretty untrue and distinct fact. Being at bottom of the food chain in school is where I'd spent my life ever since I moved to Bayter. I really tried to fit in as the chubby and brown haired kid but it just never happened for me and now here I was , with the most popular boy in all of Bayter, brown haired like I was but didn't seem to care about the thoughts of the Blondies.. and I was having dinner with his family. Really. I would've called the asylum on them. "So Lisa, Mason tells me you're the best student in school and you're aiming to be class valedictorian." Eleanor says, as she takes a bite of her delicious lasagna, smiling warmly at me. I look at Mason, a bit surprised and wondering how he knew that. "Mum- her name isn't Lisa. Its Leah. " Mason

Leah's P.O.V I was not having the best day. Why you ask? No one asked. For starters, it was Tuesday. The first day Mason and I would be meeting for tutoring. That meant an evening spent with him. Monday, the universally loathed day, shifted to Tuesday for me, all due to a single deal I couldn't back out of. Also, that knowledge came with the painful realization that I would be missing Taco Tuesdays- a family tradition where mum and I prepared Italian delicacies while gossiping about her colleagues in the office- Brenda Shannon- mum's boss, being the highlight of my Tuesdays. It broke my heart knowing it would come to a stop for a while. And it pissed me off. The dreadful day went on like a blur, classes held, the normal high school drama where someone finds out their significant other had been cheating on them, typically a high school day. And it all went away with the miniscule enthusiasm I had, looking forward to tutoring Mason. Mason Kings was too smug for my liking, so ima

Leah's P.O.V "You will be tutoring Mr. Kings till the end of the school session." I should have heard wrong. I must have heard wrong. Sitted in the midst of the people who decided the outcome of my academic life was already a nerving experience on its own but them informing me that I had to tutor Mason Kings- the boy I vowed never to like for the rest of the academic session,,, was another nerving experience on its own. They could give me a million people to tutor and I'd rather have that than tutor Mason Kings. Really? Okay.. not a million.. like three people but you get the point. I couldn't stand being with him- not to talk more of tutoring him. "I'm sorry.. I don't understand Mr. Hollins. Why do I have to be the one to tutor him?" I asked, fidgeting in my seat as Hollins, Mrs. Flips—or Phillips, my English Lit teacher (though I playfully called her Flips for my amusement), and the football coach all fixated their gazes on me."There are so many good tutors in school that w

Mason's P.O.V Human beings are predictable. At least that's what I thought. Ever since I was little and I knew how important and influential my family was- and not just in this town but the country, everything had always been handed to me at my beck and call and then at first, due to my little oblivious age, I always thought the reason was because I was a good and well - behaved kid which urged me to continue being that way from attending all my classes diligently to helping out my nannies. I had lived in that delusional bubble for a while until one of my birthday parties which was never just a little kid's birthday party , I informed everyone that my parents wouldn't be around to attend. They all left like the party had become a crime scene. It was meant to be a prank and as soon as my father called back the county commissioner at that time to let him know that I had pulled a prank on them, everyone rolled in once again like flies chasing garbage. It was then I knew that being a

Chapter 3 Leah's P.O.V "Leah, mom said to tell you to get quickly ready and have your butt down for breakfast now!!" My little brother Derek yells through the door. I let out a groan, drowning myself in my duvets. I hated school days sometimes.. especially when I didn't feel like going to school. I know I'm the nerd and have no right not to like school, but sue me! I don't like school all the time! My cell phone vibrates beside me, and I check who is texting at this ungodly hour. Its 7:13am. Grace☆ Be there in 20. Be ready. Shoot. Stumbling up from bed, I rushed to the bathroom and had a quick shower, wondering why she was picking me up today. It wasn't 'our' Thursday yet. I guess she was moving a bit forward. I grabbed one of the nice tops I owned and paired it with my 'fashion jeans' and AF1's. Checking my hair in the mirror, hoping my roots haven't started fading out but then again, one can only hope. I decided to wear my hair in a sleek bun today instead, put on my g

Chapter 2 Leah's P.O.V "You!!" I say with a glare, hoping it could make him piss his pants. He looked confused. "Me! Yes. I am so sorry for hitting you. It was an accident-" I throw off the covers and proceed to get up, ignoring the light-headedness I was feeling. "Woah... woah. Where do you think you're going?" He asks, and I throw him another glare. "I am going to the principal's office." "Sweetie-" "I'm sorry, Mrs. Kings, but if it were any other person, I would've definitely not snitched." I say it to her honestly. I proceed to walk out of the office when Mason blocks my way. "Move-" I ordered him in a tone that I hope sounded like a king ordering his guards around. "No- not until you tell me why I am excluded from not being snitched upon." "Okay." I agree with fake certainty, and once he lets down his guard, I don't wait for him to say anything and go around him, running out of the office. "Hey! Wait- come on!" I ignore his protests and continue my mission to the offic

Leah's P.O.V High school had always been a fantasy for me. I always dreamt about sneaking out to parties, going out and staying out late, being on the cheer team, and having the popular kids as my friends. My greatest delusion was meeting my high school sweetheart, going to prom with him, and falling in love afterwards. How wrong I had been. Up until senior year which just happened last week, I was living the opposite of the life I wanted to live in High school. Instead of going out and partying, assignments and essays were my hobby every Friday night. I preferred sweatpants and baggy shirts to a cute dress any day. Not meeting the beauty standards of my school, where everyone looked like a character from Legally Blonde, I, on the other hand, was the total opposite with my brunette hair and my fat, thick body—the things I loathe the most about myself. Inheriting the eye defect from my dad, my big, rimmed glasses were the only accompaniment on my face, and lastly, instead of being p
