The Fighting Year

Slippin'

((Tyler and Maggie.))

((Maggie's POV))
I got to school this morning and saw Tyler, I hadn't seen him all weekend so I needed to talk to him, but I can't.

I went to walk to my locker but passed him, I couldn't help it.

"Hey Ty,Ty! I missed you!"

I hugged him tight, but he pushed me away "Umm what do you think you're doing!? Get away from me Band Geek!"

I looked at him with tears filling in my eyes "But the kiss, I thought you... you were gunna change."

He looked at me in disgust. "kiss you? Much have been a dream, one dream that isn't gunna happen."

He pushed past me and walked over to Ashton who was coming down the hall, they met in the middle and  started to make out, she kissed his neck and looked back at me smiling. Tyler's posse and Ashton's just looked at them.

I just ran to the bathroom and cried.

((Tyler's POV))

Maggie so hates me now.

I didn't mean to be that mean but, I can't risk anything now, not my senior year, I love maggie and Ashton's a bitch but, I can't risk it.

I couldn't focus for the rest of the day and we had a big game tonight, then next week is homecoming game and dance.

Shit I couldn't continue like this.

~~later at the game~~

((Maggie's POV))

"Come on mags were late!" Roxie was trying to get me to go to the game.

We were sitting in my room getting ready when a knock came at my door.

I walked over and opened it, Austin was standing there.

"Austin, what do you want."

He looked at me "I'm going out, don't tell mom anything."

I nodded "with your friend?"

He nodded and left.

We went to the game.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I sat there watching this game, I had Tyler's number on my cheek, he was the only one I really cared for on the team.

They played good and won the game, it was just hard to watch Tyler run over to the sidelines and kiss Ashton after the game, she'd just giggle and wrapped around him, just earlier she was flirting with Adam, Tyler's so called best friend.

I was leaving when I saw them, Austin, Tailin, two other guys and two girls, they looked about the age of 14,15 younger than me hanging out with 19year olds.

I went to walk over there when someone pulled me away from them, it was Tyler "What the fuck do you think your doing?"

I pulled away from him "let go of me, I don't want to deal with your pity, I'm going to talk to my brother, yeah I have a brother, maybe if we talked inside school you'd know."

He looked at me "Maggie you know we can't, but you can't go over there, I have another brother, he's really dangerous and he's over there."

"Tailin. He's your twin, you him and Roxie are triplets aren't yall?"

He looked at me "how do you know Tailin?"

His grip on me got tighter. "He's my brothers best friend."

That's when I heard the footsteps, Cleats.

And I heard the sound of wheels rolling, from skateboards.

I was grabbed by my other arm and Austin pulled me over to him "Maggie stay away from them, they'll turn you into something you're not."

I looked at them "what's going on here?"

Tyler stepped in front of all the football players that had gathered over here, Tailin was in front of all the Skaters that were here, more appeared out of nowhere.

Tyler looked at them "fields off territory to skaters, get away from here!"

Tailin smiled at him "aww baby bro, don't be that way, Austin wanted to come get his little sister."

There was murmuring from the jocks, all I could hear was "baby bro?, Tyler has a brother?"

Tyler's face was turning red and he looked mad "Big mistake Tailin."

Tailin smiled, his eyes were squinted and glazed over, he was drunk. "show me what ya got Tyler."

I pushed Tyler back before he swung "Tyler he's not worth it!"

He tried to move me "move Maggie this isn't your fight it's mine!"

"I thought you didn't know her name!?"
A voice called from behind, it was Ashton.

"Ash, leave before you get hurt."

She looked at me "why isn't she leaving, I don't want her here with you."

"No, no she can stay, as long as I'm here."

A voice said from the skaters side, and Tailin smiled as a girl who looked a little like Ashton besides her hair being black, came up.

Ashton face was pale "your supposed to me in Europe!"

The girl smiled "miss me Ashton?"

Ashton backed behind Tyler "Jane get away from me!"

This was the legendary Jane Rogers, Ashton's Big sister.

Jane was captain of the varsity cheer squad, played varsity volleyball and softball, was homecoming Queen 4 years in a row, while Ashton came in second. Jane did everything better than Ashton.

Ashton stomped off and left. So did I, I looked at Tyler and shook my head and did the same with Austin and left and went home after finding Roxie.

I didn't talk to Tyler that whole weekend.
