Three Years of Mixed Emotions.

Part 4 - "Maybe He Was Wrong."

<Alice's POV>

 "Im sorry Alice, I really am I shouldn't have even brought it up" Gavin turned and looked me in the eyes as he put a hand over his face. I could tell something was bothering him.

"No-no it's okay, I don't mind" I said moving his hand away from his face. He looked at me with sad eyes. The pain that you could see in his beautiful eyes killed me inside, because I just couldn't stand to see someone hurt this much. 

"I-I... I loved her Alice" my eyes widened in shock as I heard him say that. You can see his eyes watering, and it was painful to look at. I pulled him into my arms and we sat there just like that for a little while. Him in my arms,so hurt. A guy I have just met a little over an hour ago, hurt in my arms. But he didn't cry, although I can feel he was tense and in pain. You could hear the pain in his throat as he tried to hold back the tears.

"ALRIGHT CLASS LISTEN UP!" Mr.Perkins yelled out causing everyone to mearly jump out of their seats. 

"Hey man what's the big deal" 

"Yeah Perkins ya'need a microphone?" yelled out a bunch of kids. 

"We have about ten minutes left of class and I want everyone to get with their partners and answer some questions" Mr. Perkins said as he pointed at the questions that were written on the board. They were real simple questions, some really obvious and unnecessary. Like "What's your name?" "What grade are you in?" "How old are you?". Seriously, we could have came up with that on our own. 

 Most of the kids in the class started getting up to get next to their partners, or they were just sleeping on their desks. I didn't move one inch, because I wasn't leaving Gavin like that especially knowing the reason he is this way at this moment is his damn partner. I turned around slightly to see Katie standing on the other side of the room by the windows with some girl. The girl had short black hair with bangs and, had on red lipstick. I could see Katie glancing at us every two seconds. 

 "That stupid little-" I whispered as I turned back around and picked up Gavins head off of my shoulder. I looked at him and wiped his tears which were mostly dried out by now. 

"You okay?" I asked him, knowing I probably sounded like the only idiot on this planet. Of course he wasn't okay. 

"Im Alright." he said and pulled me into a sudden bear hug. He was so warm and smelled good, like lemons. 

"Haha! Gavin" I laughed like an idiot as I tried to break free of this hug. He let go. Picking up my head I can see his beautiful eyes looking at me and, I couldn't help but look into them, but not for long. We were interupted by someone.

 "Hi, um- excuse me?" I heard a girl say behind me as I was tapped on the shoulder. Gavins eyes flickered up at the girl, which caused me to turn around and look.

"Ugh" I groaned under my breath as I turned to face a thin flat stomach in a neon-pink shirt. I didn't even look up, because I knew it was that Bleached Barbie. I picked up my binder and shuffled my way out of the desk. My partner was on Gavins left side, where I started walking still not looking at Gavin. I didn't even say bye, I felt like a jerk but I think I was starting to like him, and how can I possibly even look at him knowing the person he loved was basically telling me it's time to move the hell out. Before I could pass Gavin he grabbed my arm and, pulled me towards him.

"Alice wai-" he yelled but his voice came low when he pulled me into him. He was still holding my arm, but he wasn't hurting me or anything. His grip got loose and he slid his hand away from my arm to my hand, locking our fingers together. I flicked my eyes up at him, and I could see Bleached Barbie behind him. Ugh shes a real B****, and I don't even know her.
