He leaned in closer. “I said do you want to dance?” She looked at him. Was he deaf? “I said I don’t.” He gave her a hard look too. Who did she think she was? She was sitting on a countertop while other girls stood around her like she was some princess. She looked good, he had to admit. She was decked down in a white, Italian-silk pantsuit with a sports bra as her only shirt. Her exposed flat stomach emphasized how fine she was, and the contrast of her white outfit highlighted the beauty of her deep-toned dark skin. She was hot alright. But he was hotter than she’d ever be. One of the most popular boys at their private prep school. And he didn’t like being turned down. He wasn’t accustomed to anybody telling him no on any day of the week, but especially on the day after graduation. “Why not?” he asked her. Bonita Sinatra didn’t suffer fools well on a regular day, but this arrogant prick was already getting on her last nerve. What was his problem? “You heard me, Bo. I asked you why not?” “Because I don’t wanna dance,” she responded, her small shoulders hunching, as if it was obvious why not. She could tell he was pissed. He didn’t like her answer at all. That was why she made a point of continuing to stare at him. Because he was staring daggers at her. “Oughta be glad I asked your ass in the first place,” he said, proving her point. “Oh yeah? I should be glad you asked me? And why’s that, Kace?” “Because.” “Because why?” “Because I’m the shit, that’s why!” Bonita wanted to roll her eyes. “Yeah you’re shit alright,” she said, and the girls that surrounded her giggled. But Bonita could feel his energy, and it was negative as fuck. She could tell he wanted to lash back at her. And he was about to lash back harshly. The n-word was on the tip of his tongue she could tell. But it was that look she gave him, where her big green eyes that had seemed so soft and beautiful just a few seconds ago, now seemed cold and dangerous. It was that look that reminded him who she was, and whose she was. It was why all the guys in his group told him to not even try it. And just as she suspected he’d do, he asked one of her friends standing by her if she wanted to dance, her friend said she did because no girl turned down Kace McCoy, and he whisked her away. Which was all the more reason why Bonita didn’t fool with any of the boys around town. Because they were still just boys. Because they wouldn’t know how to stand
