For those who don't know, I'm reposting this story because a few chapter got chopped off in the beginning. I have made it my goal not to change anything so that when I reach the chapter I left off, people will be able to read it without having to re-read the whole story ... Anywhoo, my point is I HATE this chapter. I know by the end you might be like WTF? And that is normal reaction. Just nod and go with it ... Sorry ahead of time...

"I was hoping we could talk about Friday. You know, pick a time and place for our date." A very unwanted voice spoke from beside me. I knew who it was from the first syllable to the smell of Hollister invading my nostrils.


My eyes stayed fixated on the lock before me as I slowly spun the dial, entering in my combination. Once a click sounded, I opened my locker. Reach in, I pulled out my textbook for my next class. Mentally groaning a the heaviness of the book, I shoved it in my backpack. Closing my locker, I allowed the ricocheting sound of the metal door closing to fill my ears. Turning my heel, I began to proceed in the direction of my next class.

"I am talking to you, Anna," Leaven stated as he gripped my arm.

Looking over my shoulder, I locked eyes with him. "Leaven, it's too soon." I said, at the verge of tears.

I had gone all day thinking about this, whole situation between Leaven and I situation. Even though every bone in my body wanted to know what Heaven was hiding, I knew that going out with Leaven was not the way to get answers.

"What do you mean, it's too soon?" I could hear anger laced in his voice as his grip slightly tightened.

I quickly averted my eyes in another direction due to the fact that I wanted to void the piercing stare of his eyes as they bore into me.

"Leaven, you just got in town ..." I mumbled an excuse.

"It's Seven, isn't?" Leaven guessed as he released me.

"So what if it is? It's not any of your business." I said under my breath, but I knew he heard. Leaven walked around, and stood directly in front of me. With involuntary actions, my head lifted up and I saw that he was looking down at me with a sad expression.

"A-Anna, please," Leaven got down on one knee. I felt the people around us, glancing over at us. I could see it all in their eyes, they were wondering what was going on.  "Please go out with me. Once, just Friday," Leaven begged.

I swear he looked pathetic, "No."

"I love you." The words that escaped Leaven's lips, made anger boil inside me.

I bent down and gripped his collar, not caring who was watching this anymore.

"You don't know what love is. You never called me, not once. If I loved someone and traveled thousands of miles to come back and be with this person, I would have picked up the phone and called. You on the other hand don't even seem to know how to use a phone." He was about to say something, but I kept talking. "Let me guess, you didn't have a phone ... Oh, no, but you had internet. Don't think I didn't use your sister's Facebook page to see how you were doing. So, why didn't you message me on there? Or send me an email? ... I know the answer Leaven. It is simple when you really think of it, you don't love me, never the less know what love is." I said with venom in every word I spoke.

Some people clapped when I was done, but I didn't care, I had said what I need to say.

"Anna!" Shouted Seven from behind me as I walked outside.
