Magcon Imagines

Enemies (Matthew Espinosa)

Katelyn's POV

"Hey" I let out a loud exhale as I sat beside my best friend, Amanda.

"Did you hear that Matthew and Zoey hooked up last night" Amanda gasped as I cringed and shuddered.

"I don't care what Matthew does" I spat, obviously getting mad. When we were younger, Matthew was such a gentlemen and I actually really liked him, but everything changed when we entered high school. His sense of fashion and style changed, he started to bribe girls to have sex with him, he became popular and flunked all his classes. In all honestly, Matthew turned into a selfish jock.

"Hello ladies" Matthew spoke as I looked up at him in disgust.

"Hi, Matthew" Amanda giggled as I rolled my eyes. I am the only girl who doesn't fall for Matthew's charms.

"Hello, Katelyn" he smirked towards me as I raised an eyebrow and crossed my hands over my chest, wanting Matthew to just leave me alone. "That's okay, I like challenges" he leaned in as I was more frightened than "turned on".

"Good morning class, please take your seats" Mrs. Smith chirped as everyone started to stop talking and took their seats. "Today in ELA, we're continuing on our short story project but I'm going to put you guys in partners to quicken to progress because it's due tomorrow" Mrs. Smith continued as I looked beside Amanda. "Okay, James with Amanda" she started as I sunk in my seat. "Mark with Katie, Greg with Hannah, Lenny with Daisy, Matthew with Katelyn, and David with Victoria" She finished as everyone began getting with their partner but I couldn't move out of my seat. I'm with Matthew; of course I'm partners with the boy I dislike the most.

"Hello, sweet cheeks" he smirked as he sat in front of me. "I guess we're going to have to finish this project at home" he started as I knew what he was going to say next, "your place or mine?" he smiled as I groaned and looked over at Amanda totally checking out James.

"No, Matthew, we can get it done here" I spat back an answer. "What have you done? The thesis statement, the image..." I stopped, hoping he got the point.

"Darling, do you think I got anything done?" He raised his eyebrows as I sighed really loudly.

This is going to be a long class.

"C'mon, Matthew think" I grew frustrated with Matthew's stupidity and ignorance. "What is the irony of the story?" I asked again.

"I do not know, Katelyn. For the tenth time" He rolled his hands into fists, obviously getting mad as well.

"I can't do all of the work" I looked up at the clock on the wall and started to shack my head. "We're going to finish this at your house and if you even try to lay a finger on me-"

"Chill, Katelyn. Live a little" he shrugged as the bell rang as I huffed.

"I'll meet you at the front of the school at the end of the day" I spoke as I got out of that class as fast as I could.

"Hey Katelyn" I heard Amanda as we started talking about boys.

I sighed as I looked down at my watch. It's been an hour and a half after the bell rung for the end of the school day and Matthew still hasn't shown up. I knew he wasn't going to show up, he's "too cool for school".

I started making my way to my own house and just decided to finish the project by myself, something I should of thought about the minute I got assigned to be partners with Matthew.

"Hey sweet cheeks" I heard that annoying voice as I snapped my head around.

"About time you showed up" I spat, wanting to just scream at Matthew but tried to contain my anger. "What were you doing, shoving some girl into the janitors closet?" I snapped, knowing I went too far.
