Matthew
Age 16

I find Thomas, standing near the locker. My blood boiling as I recall how close he had been to norita previously. I approach him, I needed to know if he truly had feelings for her whatsoever.
"Thomas." I catch his attention instantly, his lazy eyes dragging from the locker to me. I'm not sure where his friends were an I didn't care either
"I wanted to talk to you."
He stands there, nonchalantly waiting for me to continue.
"You like her, don't you?" His eyes widen, as if he has been caught. He looks away silently.
"Don't you dare say yes." I warn him, causing him to frown.
"What?"
"You heard me." I find myself grabbing him by the collar.
"She's mine."
"You don't own her." His grip on my hand tightens pushing me away.
That makes me slightly angrier.
"And you do?" I ask, pushing him against the lockers. He yelps in pain, his back hitting the metal lockers hard.
"No." He grunts.
"So stay away from her." I say but This time, I feel his hand fly and punch me right in the face.
I waddle back, his punch wasn't strong but it definitely hurt.
"You don't get to tell me what to go." I feel myself throw a punch at him, hard enough for him to stumble back.
His words made my blood boil. It made sense why he would be in love with Norita. They always seem to be talking while I seemed to be one to be distant from her.
