He Is King novel Chapter 5

"Exactly! I'd never be caught dead with a guy named Brick." I put my hands up in the air. "Brick is a classic playboy. He's slept with the whole school and thinks I'm next on his stupid list." I tell Walter and he just nods his head and continue having a light conversation. We finally get to class, and I find Bel at our usually corner with her bags and stuff lying on other desks, saving us seats.

"I did not know that you were bringing company." Bel purrs looking at Walter behind me, I scare of one of the weaker kids off the chair next to me and I tell Walter to sit there. "My name is Belle Myers by the way." She says to him, and I sit on my desk waiting for the teacher to show up.

"Pleasure, my name is Walter." He says in his British accent.

Cam joins the class and sits behind Walter. I look at how Walter seems to be happy around us. For now, at least. Wait till he finds out how weird we are. "Sup man, my name is Cameron, but you can call me Cam." He speaks. And Walter introduces himself too.

"Is this the gang, Reece?" Walter asks me and I shake my head and tell him that one person is left. Cameron starts talking Walter into trying out for the soccer team because he's fit and all and Walter actually looks interested in Cam's offer. I look over to Bel.

"So, are you guys dating now?" Bel asks me. I pop my eyes out.

"I just met him. Besides. He wouldn't be into me like that." I say a little sadly and it was a fact. The only interesting thing happening in my love life is Brick harassing me and I'm not desperate to fall for that trap.

"Maybe, you're right about that. Look at him." Bel says and I notice his eyes glued to something in front and its Sloane. He's got his eyes glued on her and her eyes glued at him. I was afraid that I was going to feel jealous, but I was glad I didn't. I usually feel a pang on my chest when my friends get the guys, and they just discard me.

"It's about time Sloane got laid." Bel says and I snicker. Sloane walks over and sits behind us, and I notice Walter trail her every move. When he caught us staring, he looked down at his books. His face was slightly red but Sloane? Sloane was full on red. I looked at her with a small smile but all she did was bury her fingers in hair and then covers her face.

"Did I just blush at the new guy?" Sloane whispers so he didn't hear us. And Bel and I said yes. "I'm embarrassed because someone made an edit of him on tik tok." She says pulling out her phone and showing us.
