"Um, Tatiana?" "Yes Alejandro?" I asked him. "Do you want me to go now? Or can I stay?" he asked me. We had just reached my house and I was about to go inside. "Nah, you can stay." I opened the door and we walked in. He walked into the kitchen to get some water and I continued up to my bedroom. I flopped down on my bed. I heard him walk in. "You ok?" he asked me. "No." Just at that moment I felt the room get cold. The temperature plummeted rapidly. Alejandro shivered. "Oh no..." he mumbled. Henry showed himself. "I wanna see my momma." I sat up to face him. "Henry, where can I find your momma?" "She's a doctor, the best doctor!" he said proudly. I was a bit relieved. This narrowed things down, if only slightly. "What hospital does she work at?" I pressed. "I don't know..." and he faded away again. I sighed angrily. Alejandro rushed over to me. "Was it a ghost?" "Yeah, and I still haven't figured out how to help him." "Tati, you'll figure it out. I know you will. You always have, right?" I sighed. He did have a point. I somehow always managed to pull through and help the ghost. Hopefully this time I'd be able to do it again. I leaned against Alejandro. "What time do you have to go?" "My mom doesn't care. I can stay here as long as you need me to," he said while putting his arm around me. I didn't know why, but an idea had suddenly popped into my head. I decided to ask him. "Al?" "Yes Tatiana?" "What are we? I mean, you're the only boyfriend I've ever had and I know that you're Mister Playboy. But every time we talk to each other it's-" "It's different. It's always been different and you and I both know it. Your mom even sensed it. No matter who you have feelings for or who I have feelings for, I know that you still care about me. And I still care about you." I was shocked, but everything he said I felt in my heart was true. I turned to face him. "Alejandro, I don't know if this will be something permanent or temporary, but I need you in this moment," I intertwined my hands with his and looked up at him. "Tatiana?" "Yes?" "I still love you." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I am BACK! and since Angela is waiting on me to update >_> here ya go
※〜※〜※ Lyria I slide a fresh layer of crimson over my lips and smirk in satisfaction. "Perfect." After a school week crammed with shopping, manicures, gossiping, and, well, no school, I'm feeling more confident than I have in months. There's just one more thing I need to do to be Lyria again. Get a boyfriend. Or more specifically, Alejandro. ※〜※〜※ Wary stares. Awed stares. Hateful stares. It doesn't matter to me, just as long as all of their eyes are on me, crawling, creeping, searching for a flaw and finding none. I can see in their eyes that they know. The old Lyria is back. Poised. Perfect. "Alejandro!" My high voice cuts through the clamor of the classroom, and he turns around, watching as I glide over to him on three-inch heels. The pale pink shoes are virtually flats for me. "Lyria. You're back," he states, with no inflection in his masculine voice. I can't tell what he's thinking. "Of course I am! How could I leave my favorite Alejandro all alone in this big school?" I giggle. The girl standing next to him -- Tatiana -- narrows her eyes at me. I appraise her then look away dismissively. I can't let that bitch, the only girl I actually hate, get the upper hand. "Mhm," he mutters. Huh. Alejandro actually seems to be disinterested. "Well, I'll see you later." I flash him a coy smile then flounce away, admiring gazes from every other male in the room trailing after me. It doesn't satisfy me. Alejandro's unimpressed reaction is my only concern. I'll have to make him want me, I muse, to spite Tatiana, and for personal gain. But how? ※〜※〜※
"What was that about?" I asked Alejandro. "Nothing, trust me Tatiana," he replied. "How can I trust you?" I said, glaring at him. "After all, she was the one that broke up with you!" I walked away, still hearing him calling after me. I ignored it and ran to my first class, knowing I'd find Peter and Carter waiting for me. "Hey Peter," I called as I walked toward him. Carter was no where in sight so I assumed she was absent. "What Tatiana?" he asked. "You should be happy to know that since you and Carter are now happily together," as I said this he winced. "Alejandro and I are back together again as well. He loves me." I could see that he was shocked and even hurt. "I never meant to ask her to be my girlfriend. You know I don't have feelings for her. If I did, I wouldn't have kissed you. Tatiana you're the one I want." "Yeah? Well Peter you should of thought of that before you asked her to be your girlfriend. You hurt me, and I can't forgive that because you'll end up hurting her too." And that's when I noticed who was standing behind Peter: Carter. I groaned. This was just great . "Carter, listen,-" I started. "Listen? Listen?! He played with my feelings and you two..kissed?! What kind of friend are you?" Carter looked at me disgusted and ran out of the room. I shot Peter a look that said it all. I was upset at him and with myself. I ran out into the hall and searched for her but instead bumped into Alejandro. I was absolutely livid at this point. "Are you freakin kidding me?" I sighed. "Tatiana, trust me there's nothing going on between me and Lyria. You're the one I love." Just as he said this I saw her strutting down the hall towards us so I did the only thing I could. I grabbed Alejandro and kissed right in the middle of the hall so that she could see. I let go of him and smirked at her. Her jaw was wide open and she glared at me. Tatiana one, Lyria zero. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I went there. Your turn :0
