The Lies We Tell

chapter six

PIC OF NORA ON THE SIDE (AVRIL LAVIGNE)

"So, you have any plans tomorrow?" Kyle asks as he drives me home. Jazz had his mother come get him a while ago.

"Besides school? Nothing. Why?" I say, looking at 1/2 of his face. "Would you like to come with me and the band? We're practicing and eating pizza with a few of our friends." Kyle says. I think for a bit. what if they notice my age difference? What if they tell Kyle? But, what if I put on my extremely attractive aging makeup?

"Sure, sounds like a plan."

"And that class is why you should always use a condom!" The teacher says (more like screams) to the class just as the bell rings.

I walk out the school with Sandra and my eyes land on a bunch of girls fawning over some dude by a car. Wait! I notice that car!

"Bye Sandy!Got to go!" I say as I walk over to the girls and practically shove them out the way until I reach Kyle. He's leaning against the car and looks pretty uncomfortable until he spots me and smiles. "K, gotta go!" I say as I jump in the passenger side. Kyle goes around to the front and we speed off to our unknown location.

****

We arrive at an abandoned building. I can tell it is abandoned due to the fact that it has a sign on it that says "abandoned".

We walk into it to find his band members and a few others. "Yo, Kyle!" A bunch of people say. "Hey Jess!" Jason says. I smile and wave.

"Who's this? Your slut of the week?" One of the groupies says. I look at her and smile, "No that's your job." I scowl and move on to some other area.

I sit on a couch and Kyle walks over to me with a pizza. "Slut of the week, huh?" I ask with a raised eyebrow. "Ignore Nora. She's just upset because I've moved on." He says, smiling at me.

"Well, go have fun. I'll be here." I say. He smiles and kisses my head before going over to where the band is setting up.

I take out my phone and play a few rounds of Flappy Bird because it is life. I feel a prescence on my right side and turn my heaf to see the Nora chick. "So, you got a big ass mouth on you for a teenager."She said, tossing her blackish blondish hair over her shoulder. "Yeah and you got alot of makeup on you to say you're an adult."I said. Next thing I know I'm cornered by 5 groupies.

"What? Gonna jump me? That only makes me feel better because I see you are too scary to fight me yourself." I say, standing up and getting in Nora's face. "You're right. Girls, stand by. I can handle it." She says , smirking at me and I watch as her little friends back up, all with the same wicked grin on their faces.

Nora swings but I catch her fist and throw it to the side. She jumps on me and starts slapping on me but she misses because of my fast reflexes and I punch her dead in her face making her scream. I get up and start throwing mad swings at her and she just cries while I do so.

I get off her and spit on her before the boy I came here for goes by her and starts rubbing her back, asking if she was okay. I scoff and then all of a sudden I am grabbed and can't get off. They pull out a knife and deeply cut my through my left cheek. "Stop!" Kyle says, rushing over and they do. I look to see the groupies smirking and one has a knife and her hand that is soaking blood. My blood! I feel dizzy.....

************

I wake up in the back of Kyle's car. "Why didn't you just leave me there to die?" I questioned. "Because I'm not like that. But apparently I don't know you that well since you decided to attack my friend like a wild beast." He says. I scoff and sit up, looking out the window. I sit until I see a familiar area that I could walk home to and hop out the car when we get to a stop sign.

"Jess what the fuck are you doing?! Get in the car, it's raining bullets out here." Kyle syas, still following me. I had about a good 40-45 minutes of walking to do. "Leave me alone. I'm your slut of the week. I attacked your ex girlfriend. I'm a damned idiot to think you would even care. Did you forget she had her friends cut my cheek?" I say, rubbing my suprisingly bandaged cheek.

"She said she warned you that she would have her friends do something about it if you were hurting her." He said. "How the fuck was I suppose to know stand by meant stand by her with a knife and catch her while I'm being comforted by the boy she likes so fucking much she risked her sanity, safety, and dignity for. I should of left when she reffered to me as your slut of the week." I sayed before taking my shoes off and running.

When I got home Kyle's car was there but he was not. I sigh and walk into the house. It's dark as shit since it is night time and I cut all the lights off before I left this morning. "So, you like me?" I hear as I pass the kitchen and the lights turn on revealing Kyle. "Tomorrow I might not like you because you and your friends are assholes." I say, turning around and making my way to my bedroom.

"But today you do and that makes me so fucking happy>" He says, following me. I turn around and face him. "Yes I do because I have liked you since the day I met you at the mall and you were drumming and you were the only thing I heard or saw. And now you're still the only thing I hear or see and it's driving me insane. Bu-" I am cut off by soft, boyish lips attaching to mine. I just stand there, shocked because it's my first real kiss besides the many kisses I've had with classmates for countless school plays. He takes his lips off of mine.

"Tell me you like me again." Kyle hisses in my ear. I am breathless because I still can't believe that I just had my very first kiss. "I-I l-like you." I say. He moans and pushes me again, kissing up and down my neck. He picks a spot before he starts sucking on it, making me moan like crazy.

"Oh, Kyle. Shit!" I say when I hear a car pull up.
