Death with a kiss

And here comes the drama

"You can't say no Kim! You just can't!" exclaimed Toni as she dramatically shook me. She was trying to get me to hang out with the boy from lunch. She said he was the right guy to help me with my "phobia".

I put my hand up telling her to stop, once she had stopped and was waiting for me to speak, I did. "No." I said, simply. And turned back to my locker.

"I don't know why you have to be such a grump." Toni stated, looking down and pouting. I sighed, why did I have to be born the way I was?

"You know I'm deadly afraid of guys!" Why was she being so persistent?

She just looked up at me with her bright green eyes. I don't know why she hated them so much, they were so pretty. I grunted and turned away from her, just in time too because suddenly I hear some guy talking to Toni and I just kinda start speed walking.

"So when do you wanna hang out Toni? If you know what I mean...." said the guy talking to Toni.

"Let go, let go, I can't breathe!!!" squealed Toni.

I stopped at a water fountain so that I could kind of look over there without anybody really noticing. Even though we were the only ones in the hallway, the buses and most of the other people had already left. We stayed after school for math, it's such a pain... When I looked I saw that it was Jerry, one of Toni's friends. The poor guy has the hugest crush on her though, he always plays around with it but it is honestly a real crush. It's very easy to tell. However, Toni doesn't know a thing about it. I saw him stop hugging her from behind.

"So?" he asked, as Toni dramatically tried to breathe again. She's very dramatic about everything.

"You dumbass!" she laughed as she punched him playfully. "Okay so first of all, never do that again. Second, I don't know what you mean." she said, raising her eyebrows at him with her hands on her hips. How long can you stand at a water fountain before you start looking wierd? I should walk around... yeah that seems like a good idea.

I walked out into the main hallway and wandered around. I figured I'll just walk around for like three minutes, shouldn't be long before Jerry leaves.

I was still walking around when suddenly I heard another male voice, only this one seemed to be talking to me. "Kim right?" I heard some guy say. RUN RUNNN!!! I thought, but I just stood there, unable to move. I turned around slowly and saw the guy from lunch. NOOOO DON'T LOOK!! I told myself. How stupid was I, not only do you not move away but you also go ahead and look too? Yeah, real smart Kimbo... I turned back around quickly and looked at the ground. I started to sweat! How gross!! Okay so I can't run away becuase my legs won't permit it, I'm all sweaty, and he's not leaving. I could feel him staring at me from behind probably wondering what was wrong with me. What to do.... I'll just talk to him until he leaves or I'm able to move.

"Yeah...." I responded, my voice trembling a bit.

"Is something wrong?" he asked, and I could hear him coming closer to me.

"No! Don't come closer! Don't. Come. Closer." I said, closing my eyes tightly and hoping he would heed my warning.

"Well... if there's anything wrong I'd like to help..." he said, as if it was an excuse.

"Leave! You can help by leaving!" I weakly shouted. Every part of my body was telling me to kiss him. Just a short one... I kept thinking. A really sweet short one.. but then I brought myself back to reality. Kissing this boy was the last thing I wanted to do. Kissing was horrible, it was painful, it was death.

"Ohh... Oh wow! Oh my gosh, Toni totally told me. I'm so sorry! I forgot you were afraid of guys! I'll go, I'll go!" he said, and he ran off. I let out a long sigh as I heard him less and less. I started to relax, I didn't know how tense I really was until he finally left. Wow, what a close call. He's lucky I had so much will power. Sometimes I think I should just tell everyone the truth, then they'd all stay away from me and everyone would be safe. But I won't do that and I know it. I'm too afraid of the lonliness. I sighed, why did I have to be such a selfish bastard.
