Opposites That Aren't So Opposite

Chapter 11

I rested my chin on my desk and glared at the black board. The past two weeks I'd been so annoyed, upset, and distracted by Kyle that'd I'd been having trouble doing any work. As a result I was now behind in my homework and I received a detention from my teacher.

"Get that done by the end of the week or I'll suspend you. I'm sure that won't look good for your parents."

I narrowed my eyes. I wasn't sitting in detention because I was worried about what my parents would think, I was sitting here because if I get suspended I'll hear a load of shit from my Aunt. I already felt bad about yelling at her. Getting in trouble at school wouldn't help.

The detention teacher was out for today which meant I had the choice of doing my homework or not. Since I was in a pissy mood I chose the 'not' option.

I sighed. "How long do I have to sit here?"

Since I was the only one in the room I didn't get an answer. I sat up and looked out the window. All the other students had left about thirty minutes ago so I was really almost alone in the building.

"Hm... I bet no one would notice..."

I stood up and poked my head outside the classroom. The halls were dark. I took one last look at my bag and left the room. I could get a suspension for leaving in the middle of detention but, who'd care if I got a bag of skittles? I'd go right back.

I walked leisurely down the dim halls and made my way to the cafeteria. It too was empty and dark. I flicked on a light and raised my eyebrows as I looked around the room. I wasn't used to seeing it so quiet.

I walked across the room and pulled out my wallet. I was pretty sure I had enough. I pulled out a dollar and looked at the machine. "Piece of crap..."

I didn't have enough. I sighed and kicked the machine. The light in it flickered but, it didn't give me anything.

I turned on my heel and stormed out of the cafeteria, my stomach protesting the whole time. "Damn it...! Why does a fucking candy bar have to cost so much?"

I decided I didn't feel like going back to detention yet so I walked around the school. Most of the lights were off except for a few with some late working teachers.

I slipped by most of the rooms that had lights on and poked my head into the ones without. I found most of them boring and I quickly grew bored. I decided to go back to detention and try doing some work.

I was walking down a hall when I saw a open door. I frowned. The teachers and others knew to shut all the classrooms once class was finished.

I walked up slowly and saw the light was off. I sighed in relief and grabbed the handle. "Stupid-"

I froze in my tracks. My throat got tight and my eyes nearly fell out of their sockets. I stumbled back and covered my mouth. I could just see them both through the crack in the door.

"Kyle... You seem distracted today. Is everything alright?" A female voice asked sweetly.

"Just got alot on my mind. It's nothing. You can keep going. If you want." Kyle replied nonchalantly.

The girl frowned. "But, it's not fun if you're not into it. If you don't feel like it then we can always meet up some other time." She gave him a kiss on the cheek.

He shrugged and slowly slipped his shirt back on. "That's fine. I'm kind of tired so I'll just see you tomorrow."

I scrambled to my feet and bolted away from the door. I didn't want to see anymore of that. I was about to throw up. I raced back to the classrom and grabbed my bag. I had gone over my detention time anyways.

I raced out of the room and down the stairs. I wanted to be gone from that place. I burst out the door and hurried for home. As I made it inside I threw my bag down by the door.

"Oh, Kayson. You're back already?" My Aunt called from the living room. I barely looked at her and my sister as I walked in.

"Leave me alone!" I practically shout as I ran up the stairs and slammed my door. My face was flushed and I could feel the heat radiating off my skin. I put a hand over my mouth to keep from tossing my lunch.

What the hell was that?!

(Kyle's POV)

I sat deep in thought, only half paying attention to the girl leaning on my chest. I was not pleased. Not one bit.

I had noticed my thoughts the past few weeks were always on Kayson. I'd been avoiding him since that's what he said he wanted but... I found it didn't work in my favor.

I had been thinking about it alot today too and I had come up with a way to test myself. Ask a girl if she wanted to date me and see if I reacted the same way to her as I did to Kayson.

It was easy for me to get a girl since I was the star of the football team and every girl wanted me. I just picked the easiest and asked her to meet me in an empty classroom after school.

I asked her to fool around with me for a while and she happily agreed. I had taken off my shirt to make myself more appealing so she'd try harder. I wanted to feel something new, something like what I felt with Kayson.

But, I don't feel a damn thing.

I glanced at the door wondering if it had been a waste of time to do this. I sighed. Probably.

"Kyle... You seem distracted today. Is everything alright?"

I glanced at the girl who had been kissing my neck and hugging me. "Just got alot on my mind. It's nothing. You can keep going. If you want."

She pouted. "But, it's not fun if you're not into it. If you don't feel like it then we can always meet up some other time." She kissed my cheek and gave me a small smile.

I gave a shrug. "That's fine. I'm kind of tired so I'll just see you tomorrow." I grabbed my shirt and pulled it back over my head.

There was a padding sound and I glanced at the door. "What was that?"

The girl followed my eyes and frowned. "I don't know. Maybe just one of the teachers walking by."

I frowned. "Probably..."

I couldn't help feeling like something bad just happened though. I felt like I was going to regret having set this up. I sighed and grabbed my things. "I'll see you later."

I walked down the halls thinking about what might have been the sound at the door. I couldn't figure it out though. If it had been a student they'd have done something stupid and a teacher would have interrupted.

I furrowed my brow and barely watched where I was walking. I passed a corner and suddenly stopped. "Shit!"

I raced back. I had totally forgotten about Kayla! I had been so caught up in my thoughts that I'd totally forgotten to pick her her up.

I scolded myself as I ran. I just needed to take a day and relax. That'll get my mind off Kayson.
