Dark or Light

Chapter 16 - Fail

Next day, I sat in first period taking notes. I sat with Knight and he seem quiet lately. Like he was pissed off. He wouldn't even look at me once and just sat there with his hands lock together listening to the teacher.

I lean over to him and whisper in a really softly low voice. "You alright?" I ask and he didn't even answer. He just kept his eyes forward listening. I bit my lip then tap my pencil on my notebook nodding as I sat up straight. "Alright then..."

He mumble something and I couldn't hear what he said. "Huh?" I huffed and he sigh glancing over at me once.

"Do you like Mark?" He said and I rose an eyebrow laughing. Where did he get that idea from?

Stop lying to yourself, Legna. You like him.

"Of course. As a friend," I said smiling and he became less tense then he hunch over. He rest his head on the table and laugh to himself rubbing his eyes. I just friend zone Mark...oh no. "Can we not talk about this now?"

"Sure," he groan.

The whole period he went back to being quiet but...he kept stealing a few glances at me now and then.

After class, I walk to my locker with Knight then when I walk up to my locker, the word "tramp" and "whore" was painted on my locker. Other students were walking by it laughing then a crowd started to come to look at it.

Oh grow up! It's just words, fuck off people. Leave it alone.

People look over at me laughing and I walk up to my locker casually, not minding them. "Legna. You shouldn't," Knight said and I laugh as I unlock my locker.

"What's the worst thing that can happen?" I said then I slowly opened my locker. Knight ran over to me and pull me out of the way as red paint splash all over Knight. It was dark red and it look like blood.

He look at me glaring and I cover my mouth giggling. I felt bad. I slowly reach to touch the paint but he pushed my hand away. "Don't touch it... let's just get it cleaned up," he sigh as he push the paint down his shirt to push the layer of it off. People didn't laugh. They stay quiet then slowly walk away.

See. If that was me, people would've been laughing at me. Since it was Knight and everyone is scared of him but Mark and me, no one laugh because they are terrified.

We went to the nurse's office then Knight had to change into something a little more...teenager like. He wasn't wearing his suit and tie or his fancy cuff shirts. No. More like a jersey with rip jeans. God he's fucking hot. (I know. The picture doesn't match the manly description of Knight )

This nurse got some nice fashion taste. I don't even have fashion. I'm more like, throw my hair up into a bun, throw on some sweats and a sweater then boom. I'm ready for school.

He looked at me and tug his hands into his back pocket laughing. "Do I look like a swag fag?" He asked and chuckle smiling as I nod in approval.

"Yes, but a very handsome one," I said as I held out my hand for him to hold. He glance at my hand then back at me. I slowly start to frown then he quickly grab my hand and held it. A smile spread against my lips and he laugh.

"I don't ever want to see you sad, princess," he said, kissing the top of my head. Soon as the contact was made, I had visions again.

"Do you approve, Legna?" Knight had ask then he walk out to me as he had his shirt button up all the way and his collar sharp.

"Yes, you look very handsome," I said smiling then reach for his tie, pulling it him towards me and he chuckle. I fix his tie and brush down his shirt looking up at him. "After so many years of us spending time together, I never realized someone so special to me." I place my hands on his chest and he chuckled, placing his hands on my waist.
