I walk into school on Monday, the amount of anxiety that I'm feeling is almost deathly. Other than the Eli situation, I still need to talk to Sam about Kyler. I really want to protect her because I know that a two-faced bully isn't someone that she wants to date. I head straight for Sams locker, taking deep breaths, but just as I get to her, Kyler steps in my way and hugs her from behind.
"Heyyy... that's my girl" he says and Sam turns around with a sad expression on her face, I saw her talking to Aisha so I wonder if it has anything to do with her.
"Hey" she says, Kyler immediately knows that something is up.
"What's wrong?" He says quietly
"Nothing" she says
"I got the movie tickets!" Kyler said excited
I forgot that they had a date tonight, I really don't want to ruin it. I straighten myself out and breathe, I have to do this. I can't let one of my best friends have to figure this out on her own, I have to tell her. Kyler leaves her and I catch her before she heads to class.
"Hey Cas.." she turns around, confused, "what's up?"
"We need to talk Sam" I said, she looked around and then back at me,
"I have a free period today, you wanna talk in the library?" She said and I nodded. We walked to the library as I was trying to think of what to say. We enter the library and go into one of the isles of books as she picks one up.
"What did you need to talk to me about?" She says quietly , I take a big gulp of air and whisper back,
"Kyler" she whips her head around at me and looks concerned.
"What about Kyler?" She says, I immediately start freaking out a little because of not wanting to ruin their relationship but I take a deep breath and keep going.
" Saturday Tri had Eli over and Miguel, and he was beat bad." I say and Sam turns so her whole body is facing me, " I asked what happened and he said that Kyler and his friends ganged up on him during the dance" I finished and Sam looked at me, angered.
" I've been taking shit from my Dad, I don't want to take it from you Cas!" She said and was about to walk away but then she hear Kylers voice behind her. We both looked to the table to see what was going on, moving books out of the way to see in between the cracks of the bookshelf. Seated at the table was Miguel, Demetri, and Eli, and as much as I wanted to be the one to tell Sam about Kyler, I was sure that this interaction would prove enough to her.
"We were just leaving" Miguel says and Sam looks back to me with a snarky look. I quickly direct her attention back to the boys, this time Kyler was holding up Eli by the chin, clearly seeing his 'bruise'.
"Hey where you going?" Kyler says, "Look at this freak" he continued, pointing at his lip. Anger rushed through my body as they were laughing at the sight of his deformity. The only thing that was holding me back from giving Kyler the biggest blackeye ever was the fact that Sam was standing right next to me.
"No way that can be a hicky, what kind of girl would ever kiss this shit?" Kyler said, looking at his friend and laughing.
"Leave his alone Kyler" Miguel said, causing Kyler to basically throw Eli out of his hand and onto the table, getting up close and personal with Miguel.
"What did you just say? You haven't had enough, 'Rhea?" Kyler said and started hitting and shoving him away, until he finally took his hand and through him towards the wall by his head. They shoved Eli out of there too, and of course they ended their torment by throwing Demetris' backpack in the trash.
Sam turned towards me and before I could open my mouth she hugged me and started crying. I returned the gesture for a while until we separated, she looked at me with tears filling her eyes and she mouthed an "I'm sorry" at me and all I could do was hold her in my arms again.
"I'm sorry I tried to tell you before you found out like this, I really didn't want to rui-" I said but was cut off by her hand on my shoulders and an assertive look on her face.
"I'm done with him, okay?" She said and I nodded, she let me go and walked out of the library. I turned right and saw Eli staring at me, I guess he snuck in the row. He looked as if he was about to cry and was covering his lip. I walked up to him, making sure there was nobody in the row we were in because of what I was about to do.
" don't listen to what Kyler says, he doesn't know what he's talking about, okay?" I whisper as I cling onto Eli's sweater sleeve, close to his hand. He started crying and covering his lip even more, so I took his hand that was covering the lip and put it on my waist, looking deeply into his eyes.
"Believe me, there is nobody's lips I would rather kiss." I said and pecked my lips against his. Immediately his hands went from my waist to my lower back, moving my body onto his. I placed my hands on the back of his neck and kissed him more passionately. When we separated he held me for a while, brushing the curves of my back with his hand. I felt as if I was seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, as if all the anxiety from the weekend was washed away.
That was until I opened my eyes and saw Demetri in front of me.
