Why?

Chapter 6

I kissed him again, one last short kiss, and I got up. We started packing up the picnic, and soon we were driving to my house. On the way there, he gave me his number, and I added mine into his phone for him. We arrived, and I hugged him goodbye.

"I love you too." I smiled at him and he said to text him over the weekend, and he can't wait to see me on Monday. I walked into my house and got ready for bed. I wiped off all of my makeup and took a shower, and hopped into bed. I drifted off as I relived our first date.

"I love you." I whispered into darkness. Then I fell asleep.

*Monday morning*

Cody's P.O.V.

There she was. My beautiful girlfriend. I couldn't believe I was so lucky to have found her, let alone be her boyfriend! I can't believe that everyone thinks she's a 'mental sick brat'. Stupid Brittany. If she actually took the time to get to know her, she would realize how smart and amazing she actually is. I thought to myself as I saw Xael step off the bus. She looked around, and she spotted me. She ran over and gave me a big bear hug.

"I missed you so much, Cody!" she exclaimed. Her eyes shone bright with happiness and love, and I smiled at her.

"I missed you too, Xael." I replied. She smiled. Then I saw her smile...disappear. I turned around, and guess who was standing behind me? You guessed it: Brittany. That devil!

"Cody, what are you doing with that disgusting monster of a girl?! I thought I told you to stay away from her, or she'll give you disgusting disease! You know I was just trying to protect you, but now it's too late. She probably already infected you with her ugliness and stupidness!" Brittany retorted, a disgusted look on her face. I couldn't believe she had just said that when I was RIGHT IN FRONT OF HER!!!

"Oh, I'm sorry Brittany. I didn't realize that you actually had feelings, even if you're wrong. I thought you were just a pile of fake! And this isn't a disgusting monster, it's my GIRLFRIEND. So sorry that we have different opinions, but I can like whoever I want to like. And I can't believe I actually used to like you. You're just a devil in disguise! And believe it or not, Xael is actually beautiful and smart. So it's a crap ton more likely that YOU are going to infect us with your ugliness and stupidity! So go get a life, and an education! Oh, and maybe some real boobs and a real butt while you're at it!!!" It felt so good to finally say that! I looked at Xael and smiled, but I could tell that she wasn't quite done yet.

"Yeah Brittany, leave us alone. You're the sick, mental brat! Maybe you should just go make-out with a GARBAGE CAN! At least then you'll be around your same species!!" Xael yelled at her. She grabbed my hand and stomped out of the room, me helplessly following her. We ended up in the deserted band room.

"Hey, good job but don't you think that was a bit much? I mean she is a sick mental brat, but you-" I was cut off as she forcefully slammed her lips into mine. I pulled away, and she still looked so mad. "Hey, what's wrong? Are you okay? Because I can't tell if you want to kiss me or kill Brittany..." I said, confused by her mood swings.

"I want to do both. Sorry if that kiss was a bit intense, but I'm just so mad that Brittany said all that stuff and acted like I wasn't even there! I just wish I didn't have to go to school with her..." Xael sighed. I looked at her, seriousness in my eyes.

"Listen Xael, I love you, and I know that you love me, but you need to calm down, okay? It's going to be alright. I think she's scared of us now, but you just need to calm down. Okay? You good?" I asked.

"Yeah, okay. I'm good. Thanks." She smiled a little as she sat down on the piano bench. I walked over and kissed her gently, and she hugged me. "I love you. Forever and always." she said.

"I love you, forever and always." I replied. She giggled and I pecked her on her cute little nose. The bell rang, and I gave her one last hug as she walked out of the room.

Damn, I loved her so much.
