Chris

I woke up late from watching t.v last night. I hurried to school on my bike. Luckily I was like 7 minutes away. I pulled up and ran to homeroom. Everybody gave me a quick glance as I walked in. I walked to the hoomroon teacher and gave her the late slip.

"Whats up Chris?" Terrence asked

"Nothin man. Had a long night." i replied

"Oh. I forgot to tell you....your girlfriend's pretty upset." he added.

I jumped up. "What happened?" I demanded.

Terrence put his head down."Between you and me man....it was Tatiana. I think she said something to Alcyone that made her mad. I mean, shes pissed." he replied.

"What did Tatiana say to her?!" I asked.

"I dont know man! All i know is that shes by her locker having a fit. You need to go check on her man. Im serious. She looks like she wants to hurt someone." he said

Just then, I ran out of the classroom and went straight to the lockers. There she was, kicking the lockers and falling to the floor.

"Alcyone, babe whats the matter?!" i asked trying to touching her.

She quickly got up and backed away. "The photos....the photos!!!!" she yelled.

"Baby what photos? What did she do?" I asked.

"Chris Im so sorry. Im sorry!!" she continued to say. "Its my fault! I dont love him! I love you! Oh god why is this happening to me?" she said.

I walked over to her and held her. "Baby please calm down and tell me what happened." i said calmly. Just then i felt her body rest.

"Last year. When we had that St. Patrick's Day dance. Ryan was constantly hitting on me, begging me to dance with him. I gave in because I wanted him to just shut the hell up. We danced to one song, and then he pulled me over and told me that he liked me. A couple of Tatiana's friends were watching, but we didnt notice until after....

"After what?" i asked

"He kissed me when the balloons fell. I was apalled by his gesture so I pushed him off and slapped him." she said.

"RYAN HAD A CRUSH ON YOU?!" i said suprised.

"Yea. But i didnt know until he told me that night. Chris baby are you mad?"

I sighed and shook my head. "No im not mad. But im fucking furious at Tatiana. She tried to use photos as blackmail didnt she?" i asked

She nodded. "Yes. I should of known this was another one of her games. I was too caught up in how you would react. And I love you Chris. I dont love Ryan, I never did. Ive always had a crush on you, and Ive always adored you." she said smiling

I smilied back at her. We leaned into each other and kissed. We kissed like we were the only people left on earth. I loved this girl like life. My heart burned for her, wanting her every second. I was always on her side. I guess its us against them now.

She pulled away and blushed. "I love you Christopher Vasquez. Dont break my heart kay?" she whispered

"I promise honeybun. Ill never break your heart. I love you beyond the universe." i said smiling.

Beyond the universe.....
