Opposites Attract My Ass

Catorce! (14)

A/N: I dedicated this to awesomedino because she's followed me ever since Quizilla and actually got an account here to read the stories. Thank you.

Holden's P.O.V. (Cherish it, because it won't happen often.)

I stared after Ollie, wondering why she was so angry. I never got girls; their moods were always changing for no reason.

I found Tray talking to this girl I've seen around school. Travis Joel Camden has been my best friend since I moved here. I met him because of Ollie. It would make sense to meet him because of her since they're twins. They looked different but I doubt they had any idea on how much they act alike. But one difference was that Tray was more laid back and Ollie was more... not. I'm not really sure how to put it.

Tray waved goodbye to the girl and walked over to me. "What's up? You've been standing there and staring at me for the past..." he stopped to look at his watch, "Seven minutes."

I smiled sheepishly. "I've had things on my mind, I guess."

"Like what, my sister?"

I sighed. Tray was convinced that I'm in love with Ollie. That isn't even true. I just... like her... a little bit. It isn't even a big deal.

"Gonna keep saying I like her?" I asked.

Tray smirked. "Yep."

"Can I ask you something?"

"Sure."

"Was Ollie always so... reserved around guys?"

"What? Ollie's not reserved around guys! She's flirting was some yahoo right now," he exclaimed, pointing to where Ollie was smiling, talking to a guy who had his arm on the wall and his face close to hers.

"It's not that she's reserved, it's that she doesn't want to get hurt again."

I looked at Tray. "Again?"

I looked over at Ollie to see her kissing the guy. Without thinking about it, I rushed over there and pulled the guy off of her. Tray ran after me and pulled me off, holding me back.

"Holden! What the hell?" Ollie yelled. She turned to the guy she was kissing. "I am so sorry for him, Sam. I don't know why he did that. I don't even like him."

Sam glared at her before moving his gaze onto me. "Whatever. Just stay away from me. I don't want your psycho boyfriend to come after me."

"He- he's not my boyfriend!" she yelled after him. She followed him to the door before she gave up. She slumped her shoulders, looking defeated before looking at me. Oh, if looks could kill. She stormed up to me and pushed my shoulders.

"What is your problem?" she asked. She glared into my eyes, not speaking.

I smiled. "Do you actually want an answer?"

She gave me one of those 'are you kidding me?' looks. She let out a scream of frustration, turning to walk away. But she paused and came up to me, coming right up to my face.

"Did I look like I needed to be saved? I wasn't fighting him!"

"I was just trying to protect you."

"From what?" she yelled, "Kissing a guy I just met?"

"Maybe you shouldn't be whoring around and getting your heart broken again."

Ollie's eyes got glossy. She said, "Don't talk to me ever again. Don't you DARE come to my house, don't follow me around school. I've said it before but maybe now you'll listen. I. Don't. Like. You."

She left, slamming the door behind her. Tori pushed through a group of people with a sad look on her face.

"That was really mean, Holden." she said, following Ollie.

Tray sighed behind me. "Good going, man. Now she's going to be angry at me too for even mentioning her getting hurt. Do you know how hard it is living with her when she's angry? Dammit, man." he rushed out, following Ollie and Tori.

I suddenly felt sorry for saying that to Ollie. I didn’t even know the full story, or any part of it for that matter, behind her getting hurt.

I was aware of everyone standing around me, just staring. I had no idea what to do.

But I knew I had to talk to Ollie.

Thanks all you guys for the comments and votes and whatnot! It makes me so very happy! And did you know I am on the Humor list?

That’s right! Number 757.

…Not really something I should be bragging about, considering how low I am on the list. But I still made it! And I would just like you to know that every time I see that someone has voted for a chapter, I say, “I love you.” I’m so serious. I actually say that. But then I say, “I’m just kidding. But no, I love you for voting. Thank you.”

I’m very weird. It’s how I’m wired.

So… bye!
