A necklace (Sarah's sadistic scheme)

The young nerd in front of Sarah looked lost for a second, despite this obviously being a moment he had planned in advance, until he took an unsteady breath in. His hands, that had been trembling in front of himself like they wanted to hold each other, moved down towards his jeans instead. Clumsy fingers brushed over his unfashionable belt, making Sarah's eyes narrow instinctively.

"I swear to God," Sarah thought, "if he 'gives' me his dick I'm going to rip it off of him and give it to him right back up his asshole!" Fortunately for Sarah, not even Matt was clueless enough to do that. His hands instead moved down past his belt to one pocket of his sensible pants. They fished around inside for a moment before withdrawing, a small, black, box clutched in his trembling fingers.

From the collection of ostentatious jewelry Sarah had scattered across her bedroom and spilling out of boxes like a pirate's trove, she knew that it was a jewelry box. The lid being flicked open confirmed what she already knew. Inside was a chain necklace with a heart shaped talisman bearing a small, green gem. The stone in it was small, but the necklace itself was definitely still silver. A piece of jewelry like this wasn't eye wateringly expensive (unlike some of the other necklaces Sarah owned) but it still wouldn't have been cheap for a student like Matt.

"I-it's your birthstone," Matt stuttered as he pushed it towards her. For a moment it seemed that he was about to press it into her hands, but then his nerve failed him and he placed it beside her on the couch instead. "Peridot, for August," he explained, as if Sarah needed to be reminded of her own birth month. "I-I I would have waited until then, b-but I was too excited."

"Aww," Miranda sighed from across the room, obviously finding Matt's naïve gesture to be sweet or endearing. Sarah herself wasn't so easily swayed. She'd never heard of Peridot, but she knew it wasn't a diamond so she wasn't really interested, and the small and understated necklace didn't match her flashy style anyway. The person it was coming from also affected her perception of it, making it an unwanted token of unwanted affection from an unwanted guest.

Still, even Sarah could tell that some thought had been put into it, and the venom that she could have spat at Matt was neutralized in her throat. "Thanks, that's so sweet," she said, using the same tone she would to express gratitude to her grandma for buying her a pair of ugly socks.

"A-aren't you going to put it on?" Matt asked, his eyes flicking nervously from the box to her slender neck.

"Maybe later," Sarah smiled, ignoring the look of disappointment that welled in his eyes. She wanted him gone, after all, and she'd never asked him to waste his money on a stupid trinket anyway. "I'll trade you the hat for it," she added, the tiny shred of sympathy she had for the loser forcing her to extend the slightest olive branch.

The weak way he took the hat made his dejection clear. He couldn't even meet her gaze as he took the hat from her, and even his fingers brushing over her own didn't seem to excite him anymore. John tried to give him an encouraging smile, while Nicole wore a look of 'I told you so' that suggested she really was the smartest of the three, but he missed them both. Matt was too focused on staring straight down into the hat and sadly stirring the slips with one finger.

Two uploads today, since neither chapter was big enough in it's own right to warrant a spot by itself. If you want to see what Sarah actually does with what Matt gives her, then you'll have to check out my Patreon, where that and the next chapter afterward of her getting some **** are both available.
