One kiss at a time

26

"So they fought because of what happened in...high school?" Benedict asks with confusion

Aaliyah nods sighing "Yeah...but that is not all...Venessa told the squad about the stalking thing...and they know and...Oliva tried to-" Aaliyah stops trying not to say anything that would rile Benedict up, "....the point is that Venessa was trying to defend me... in front of her and somehow it went into...high school talks"

"She told the squad about what happened to you as a way to...feel great Aaliyah...I mean if she truly was defending you...she should have told you sorry for telling such an event to her squad so they could giggle and laugh when you walk by" Benedict says

"I know...But...we're making progress?" Aaliyah says

"You are not making progress...just because she is not trying to creep me out...or have me all to herself.....she used you as a laughing stock...even though she saved you...I agreed because she helped you...but I'm not doing to tutor her anymore"

"Benedict...come on..."

"No...you are too kind for your sake doll...I was famous in high school and I have seen some snakes in my 4 years in that high school and I can tell you that she is not doing this because she likes you....she is trying to portray herself as some hero and use you as some rags to rich story-"

"Benedict...if she was not there...I would have just...been gone...kidnapped...raped...I don't know...I have never experienced a stalker before and when she came to rescue me...it seemed like she had dealt with such things...maybe she just wanted to help because she didn't want me to experience such a case"

"Really doll? We are talking about Venessa doll..."

"Benny-"

"No Aaliyah...I don't trust her... and neither should you"

"But-"

Sammy cuts Aaliyah off by running into the principal office with James by her side "I came running when I heard you told that bitch was sent to the principal office..."

"She helped me... fought some girl who was saying bad things about me..." Aaliyah sighs as Sammy sits beside her dropping her bag on the floor.

"Did they hit you...oh I will beat the living crap out of them-"

"Wow feisty...I like the feisty Sammy" James interrupted

"It seems like you want to be an example to the ladies don't you" Sammy says glaring at him with a smile

James raises his hands rolling his eyes "I was just saying...we have freedom of speech"

Sammy rolls her eyes as Venessa, Yasmin, Oliva, and her friends walk out. Venessa having a smug look and Oliva looking ashamed.

"Screw you" Oliva says to Venessa walking away with her friends trying to cheer her up.

"Your boyfriend does it every night...hi Benny...hi Aaliyah...Hi James...hi Sammy," Venessa says rolling her eyes when it came to greeting Sammy.

Sammy stands up and walks up to Venessa "Well well well...if it isn't the lair...the bitch and her slutty wardrobe" Sammy looks at Yasmin who had a shocked face "Hi dog...how's the bone she's rewarding you for following her..." Sammy finishes earning a few gasps from James and Benedict

"Really...is your insult bar so low that you had to steal from Degrassi to insult me and really a dog? You got the womanizer following you like you're his master...what does it say about you" Venessa scoffs

"No...but it reminded me of you whenever I watch the show...how backstabbing you are, plus what's wrong with a womanizer following me...somehow I am able to put him in his place...and very soon it would be you"

"I'm not even her friend...I don't have a close relationship with her to stab a knife in her back...I'm not like that you know...I mean a friend should who's her true friend...and you cursing me right now...it clear that I'm not"

"You go on your way...save her...what did you say again....oh right, you're a bitch not a murderer right...then you talked about her stalking issue with the squad? So you could do what? Dance with them as they mock her...or try to use it against her so she could leave Benedict"

"Sammy-" Aaliyah tries to talk but Benedict stops her, standing up

"Let's not try to act like this in front of the office...I mean it's college, not high school so you can't really curse that much guys..." Benedict says

"Exactly Benny...it's college...I just got a hold...I can't apply to spring classes till February...worse of all I lost my hair extension"

"Yet you backstabbed her...such a hero you tried to portray as"

"I'm not even her friend but if you want me to be a hero...I don't care about her...she could die and I won't blink an eye"

"Yet you defended her...may I ask why because your actions are speaking much louder than your words"

"Fine...I wanted to show that bitch Oliva that the next time she crosses me...it won't be just her fake eyelash that I will pull...it would be her hair extensions"

"And I am here to tell you that if you use Aaliyah as a sob story, rag to riches tales ever again...you won't just be losing your hair extensions...you will be losing your real hair..." Sammy says putting her finger in Venessa's face "Let's go Aaliyah...let's leave the hair extension witch with her dog" Sammy says, dragging Aaliyah out of the room as the two boys walk out both confused and shocked

"Wow Sammy...I've never seen you curse so much in the span of 10 minutes...you really hate her...called her a liar and a bitch...even said the word slut...guess me and Benedict is slowly rubbing off you guys...maybe I will steal your first kiss" James

"I already have my first kiss and still know your place...you're below me...you're a dog like she said...and dogs don't speak without their owners allowing them" Sammy says walking away, linking her hands with Aaliyah who looks back at Benedict, who shrugs in response

"Did she take some coke...why is she so..." James says rubbing his neck

"Feisty?" Benedict replies with a chuckle

"Yeah"
