Nothing too special happens in these. It's basically just a filler chapter. It does introduce two new characters, though! Too bad Liam isn't in this one :( I'm starting to kind of feel bad for Michael, too. Maybe it's just me, but he loves her. I'm a sucker for a love story! :'(
Chapter 8 *Kayla* I can't believe he was cheating on me! He was always so sweet that I completely over looked it. Ugh! I can't concentrate in this class right now. I glanced at the clock and it said I still have ten more minutes. I can tough it out for that long. After this class I'm definitely going to go home. I've never skipped school before but today is the day I'm going to. "What's wrong?" Andrea asked from my right. She can always tell if somethings wrong. She's been my best friend for six years. She's always there when I need her. "Michael's a douche bag. I fucking hate him," I whispered and could tell that I got my point across by the widening of her eyes. She knew it was seriously if I was cussing. I rarely ever cuss. "What the hell did he do? I'll fucking kill the asshole," she whisper yelled back at me. There was one cuss word in her sentence almost every time. "It's all because of that slut Liz," I said and and made sure to say slut louder so Liz could hear me. She was in our same class and by the tensing in her back, I knew she did. "Aren't you glad you didn't have sex with him, now? She probably gave him thirty different diseases," she said, louder than necessary. A few heads turned towards us and I felt my cheeks heat. "Andrea! Keep your voice down!" I hissed. Everyone knew I have been dating him so they looked shocked to find out that I didn't sleep with him. Oh god, this is embarrassing! Word will spread around the school faster than a forrest fire! Thanks, Andrea! Finally the bell rang and I hopped up from my desk. "I'm skipping the rest of the day," I told her as we walked out of class. "I'll come with. I can't believe the smart, goody good, Kayla is skipping school!" She said teasingly. "Oh shut up, it's not that shocking!" I said and bumped shoulders with her. "It's pretty damn shocking! Let's take my car, I know the best place to go," she said and dragged me to her car. I kept glancing over my shoulder expecting the principal to be hot on our tail. Once we were in the car she turned up the music. I was instantly in a better mood. I was still sad and a little furious about Michael, but being with her made a little bit of it vanish. She pulled onto a road that led us out of town. I looked at her questioningly but she just smiled. The only place she could be taking me was an hour away. That's the next stop and it's just a bunch of shopping stores. Oh no, she's taking me shopping! I love clothes just as much as the next girl, but I hate shopping! The constant trying stuff on and being disappointed when it's not your size tires me out. I hate changing my clothes so much. Andrea just kept driving past the stores though. She drove about five minutes past them, then pulled into a little diner. There were a few cars but not many. It was called Aunt Sherry's Diner. "You'll be in heaven once you taste this!" She said excitedly. When we walked in an old lady in her fifties greeted us. "I didn't expect to see you back here so soon," she said to Andrea. "I just can't seem to stay away," Andrea said with a grin. The way they talked made it sound like they were friends. I wonder how many times she goes here. I don't know how I didn't know about this place. Out of all the six years Andrea and I were friends, she hasn't mentioned it. "Don't waste your time looking at the menu. I'm ordering for us because I've found the best thing in the world to eat," she said to me as we sat at our table. When the waitress came to our table Andrea got down to business. "We would like the chocolate and strawberry pie with three scoops of ice cream," she said with a smile and the waitress looked at us with wide eyes. She was probably wondering how we could eat so much food. I won't lie, I eat like a pig. "So how about that new eye candy, Liam," she said after the waitress took our order. She knew that Liam beat the crap out of Michael but to her that just means that he's stronger. She reminds me of an animal. They always pick the stronger one! I snorted to myself thinking about it. "What are you laughing at?" Andrea said suspiciously. "You don't even want to know," I said, trying to hold back a laugh. "You're probably right. Your minds works in weird ways. You are a strange child," she said with a grin and I couldn't help but laugh. "Me? I think it's you that's the strange child! Your parents must be ashamed," I said and shook my head. I make a 'tsk' noise and we both bursted out laughing. "Here you go, ladies," a male voice said and put the pie in front of us. "Are you new?" Andrea purred at him. I could admit that he was pretty hot. He had short black hair and bright green eyes. His shirt showed off his muscles a little and they were defined. His strong jaw was in an easy smile that was aimed towards Andrea. "Started today," he said with a wink. "I think I might need to be coming here more often then." "Mr. Kahn, you don't need to scare away our best costumer," the lady that greeted us said from behind him, "Ms. Andrea comes at least once a week. We don't need to be having you scare her off," she said and winked. "There isn't anything about this place that could scare me off. As long as you keep making this pie, I'm staying right here," Andrea said with a smile. Speaking of pie, I glanced at it and it did look heavenly. My mouth was salivating looking at it. "Looks like your friends wants to rip into it," the lady said and everyone looked at me. I felt the heat rise into my cheeks and had to resist the urge to cover them. I was looking at the pie like it was the best treasure ever. "I know I want to," Andrea said and ate a big mouthful. I guess that was my queue. I also took a bite, and as embarrassing as it sounds, I moaned when I tasted it. It was the best food that has ever graced my tastebuds. "My work here is done," the lady said with a satisfactory smile and walked away. "This is absolutely delicious," I said around a mouthful. I glanced up and the guy was still standing there. He was looking at me with an amused smile. "Did you make this?" I asked and pointed my fork at it. "I most definitely did." "Good looking, and he can cook! It's really good," Andrea said after she a huge bite. "Well pretty girl, I'm glad you like it," he said and glanced at the clock, "Well, I'm off." "Your shift just ended?" Andrea asked. "Yup, I'm finished with work for today." "You should hang out with us." "And what would you ladies be doing?" He said with a smile. She glanced at me and her eyes were practically begging me to let him come with us. I rolled my eyes and nodded my head. "There's an iceskating rink that we're going to," she said and giggled at him. Why she giggled, I had no idea. Looks like I won't be going home anytime soon. I'm going to be skating! I've never been there before. I mean, and iceskating rink in Florida? Weirds, right?
*Michael* I tried calling Kayla's phone many more times but it was either dead or turned off. Her beautiful voice would come on and it'd just be her voicemail. Growling, I sat up in the hospital bed and glared at my phone. This shit can't be happening right now. I can't believe that bitch Liz would tell Kayla. I was so beyond pissed at her. I was even pissed at myself for falling in love. I wasn't the type of person to fall in love. I don't like serious relationships. I felt so whipped right now, though. My heart felt like it was shattered into a million pieces. Those three little words she screamed at me felt like a knife slicing through my heart. I hate you. Those words kept replaying in my head over and over. I have only thought about those specific words for the past two hours. The tightening in my chest hasn't eased up any and I felt like I could barely breath. I want her back so badly. Just the other day we almost had sex and now she hates me. My lungs felt like they were collapsing as I gasped for breath. Shouldn't these feeling be what girls felt? Was I a pussy for feeling this way after a girl dumped me? I probably was. Actually, I know I am. Now I can see how wrong it was of me to cheat on her. I had the perfect girlfriend and I completely fucked it up. What's wrong with me?! Maybe it's a good thing she dumped me. I don't deserve a girl like her. I don't deserve to have that great of a person dating me. I'm a jerk and I'm glad she got away from me. Saying those words made me want to strangle myself. It's not like I didn't feel like I was already suffocating. The stabbing in my heart made a tear fall from my eye. Shit, I really need to man up. I don't need to be acting like this towards a girl. But not any girl, a girl I love.
