"Your face is red. Did something happen?" asked Mr.Cartier. "Or are you not feeling very well." he had come over to me in the lunch hall once I got back. "I'm not feeling very well..." "Oh. Do you want to go home? I can tell your period 4 teacher your condition if you..." "No. I'm fine. Can I talk to you?" I asked him. I looked up at him. He could tell I really needed to tell him something important. "Sure. Come to my classroom." I followed him to the familiar area and I took a seat in from of his desk. "Mr.Cartier what is your relationship with Lyle and how do you know him?! Please tell me, please!" "I... alright... So, Mr.George Olver is the company president of Olver industries and Lyle is his son. For the last few years, he has been trying to find the perfect bride for his son. His first choice was... Laura. Laura was from a good and rich family and certainly made Lyle happy. Laura had almost been taken by Lyle's charm... but... She was smart enough and didn't fall for his bullshit. Before her accident I yelled at her and told her to get out of my life and never come back. She immediately went to Lyle to break off anything they had. She was... going to choose me," he said fighting back tears. "She was going to love me and be with me like she had been... until... until the accident. She had been coming home when her car slipped and overturned in flames... he died thinking I hated her... angry and hurt..." he started crying. "This isn't what I wanted!" he sobbed. I went over to him and put my arms around him. "I know how you feel. Mackenzie died thinking I hated him. But in truth I loved him more than anyone. But I think he knew. I think he knew how much I truly did love him and care about him. And I'm sure Laura is the same. I'm sure she knew you couldn't stop loving her just like she couldn't stop loving you. That's why she went to Lyle, right? She was going to choose you because she loved you. Thats what matters." tears rolled softly down my cheeks and I held him tighter. "Yes... thank you, Katherine..." he said lightly touching my hand.
It had now been over a week since I last saw Lyle. I wasn't too concerned about. Frankly I just didn't care. But on my way to school, a black car pulled up beside me and Lyle came out. "Katherine!" he said grinning. "It's so good to see you again!" I groaned. He still wore his sunglasses and leather clothing. I kept on walking trying to not acknowledge his existence. He came in front of me and stopped me. "Wait... wait a second," he said. He got down on one knee... and took off his sunglasses. My heart started pounding in my chest. He had such a gentle and angelic face. My face grew hot. He was amazingly handsome. "Wh... what are you doing?" I asked. He took out a glass case and opened it. A massive diamond ring was perched inside. "Marry me. Katherine Revant." At that moment I wanted to say yes! The fool that I was! "No. Go away," I responded and walked around him. "Why?" "Because I don't know you, and I don't like you," I said back. "You have to know the person before you marry them!" "You'll get to know me. In time you might even love me!" "No!" "Come on!" "No!" He took my hand. "Please?" I just want..." "Hey!" It was Mr.Cartier. He ran over to me and released Lyle's hand from mine. "Stay away from her, Lyle. I mean it. She's only a child! You are almost twenty-four! Find someone your own age to bother!" "Rafe? Oh I get it... you love this girl." "What?! That's absurd! She's my student, and I don't want her to be affiliated with perverse old men!" "I'm not old..." he sighed. "Leave her alone," Mr.Cartier hissed. He took my hand and led me away. "Damn it... Katherine, don't fall for his crap!" "I wasn't!" I protested. "Good." "Why did you help me?" I asked. "What?" "How come you stopped him? Why do you have to..." "Because I care!" he said he turned in front of me and put his hands on my shoulder. "I care about you. I don't want you to get involved with such a man. Fall for someone your own age. Okay?" "Okay..." He cared about me... yet he didn't understand my feelings at all... he really is stupid...
I couldn't help but remember what Mr. Cartier had said to me. When he told me he cared about me. Of course I knew he only meant it because he was my teacher but it still made my heart stir... "Katherine!" "Shit..." I whispered. It was Lyle. He was running over to me after school I presumed he had been waiting for me. I quickly tried to ignore him by running across the busy street and walking completely nowhere. "Wait! Katherine!" he shouted after me. He made his way over through all the cars and right over to me. I groaned and tries to avoid him. He really was annoying as hell and it pissed me off. "Katherine, are you going home? Do you mind if I go with you? Where do you live? I'll drive you home if you'll let me," he said trying to catch up with me. I turned around. "Go away Lyle!" I snapped. "I don't want anything to do with you so please leave me alone!" I didn't wait for his reply before I ran away. "Katherine?!" "Jesus... why doesn't he get that I don't want anything to do with him?! That idiot..." I blushed and the hit myself. "Why do I keep blushing around him though?" I asked myself. "Damn you Lyle Olver... But I'm not going to fall for you like Laura."
