Sometimes You Gotta Love Your Enemies

Chapter Eight

The school day I was depressed I wouldn't talk to anyone and I didn't want to talk to anyone it just felt like the world just killed me and I have no emotions Like a robot. Kevin tried to talk to me but I never talked back. Today was the day we had to read out our projects for the class and mr. Woods does that part of  embarrassing yourself if you have stupid information. It was our turn to go tell our pointless information that we will never use if actual life. And of course Kevin did all the talking I just stood there with my hood on my head so I looked like a shadow. After our presentation was done Kevin finally asked I mean I didn't want him to ask I didn't want anyone to ask.
"Hey"he said punching my shoulder lightly"what's wrong"
I said nothing
"Did I do something?"he said with a more concerned tone
More silence from me
"Come on you can't give me the silent treatment forever"he said
Still nothing
"Grace"he said lifting up my chin"if you don't tell me what's wrong I will never know and I can't help you,what's bugging you?"he said with a serious tone
At that point I could feel my eyes burning i didn't want to talk about it or I would have a total breakdown about it and have flashbacks with all the happy moments in life.
"My-my-my"I tried to get the words out my mouth but instead hiccups came out
I hugged Kevin close and buried my head into his chest and didn't even care if the whole class was watching.
"Grace"he said concerned"what is it"
I wiped tears from my face and looked at him in the eyes. All I could see was blurry ness from forming tears in my eyes.
"M-my dad died"I finally got out. I sounded like one of those people who crave attention when a family member dies but I didn't care,all I wanted was for him to come back.
"Ahem" Mr. Woods cleared his throat"grace would you like to see the counselor?"Mr. Woods asked tilting down his glasses
I didn't say anything so I just nodded
Mr.woods pointed me to the door and I walked to the hallway to the counselor but I had my own plans. I walked to the door of the school and left,I can just tell the secretary I left for an important reason and we're also good friends. I ran through the woods and towards the lake. This is where my dad would always take me to go fishing or swimming either way I just seemed to calm me down but it just brought more tears down my face. I jumped when a hand touched my shoulder but felt happy when I noticed it was Kevin. His face had a confused expression.
"What are you doing here?"he asked
"I could ask you the same" I said hugging him
"Ya but seriously why are you all the way out here?"he asked looking around
"It's just my calm spot"I said shrugging
"Your going to get in so much trouble"he said
"Says the one who gets detention every so often"I said
"Ha ha ha funny such a comedian"he said crossing his arms
Kevin decided to sit with me and just watch a few fish swim by every so often until its probably third period so it was time to go. When we walked in the doors I'm pretty sure we smelt like the outside but I didn't care much I mean I will shower during gym.
********************************************
Kevin and I were sitting on the bus waiting for our stop to come. I was laying my head on his shoulder and listening to music,music sometimes soothes me. When my stop came Kevin was with me,he said he wanted to me there with me if I had another break down. My mom wasn't home because of work and all so it was just me and Kevin.....ewwww don't think that way. We sat on my couch a little bit and watched some tv until he got bored so he made up a game. Well it was like hide and seek. I have to hide or he hides but if he finds me or if I find him I have to or he had to shoot a nerf gun and make us eat this terrible Brussel sprouts my mom makes so and when all the Brussel sprouts are gone that's when the game ends.
"Ok I count and you hide"he said covering his eyes
"Wait why me first?"I asked crossing my arms
"Because ladies first"he smiled uncovering his eyes
"Fine"I said rolling my eyes
"Ok go!"he said covering his eyes back and counting to twenty
I ran upstairs and hid under my bed,how can I still fit under my bed...I have no idea. After Kevin finished counting i sorta just sat there, luckily I had my phone in my pocket. I pulled it out and started playing a game,I made sure the volume was muted so he wouldn't find me. But out of no where my phone started to ring. I quickly answered it so Kevin wouldn't find me. I whispered  quietly.
"Hello?"I asked
"Hey baby,I'm coming back"the anonymous caller said
I didn't even look at the caller id so I took a look. The name I saw made my jaw drop. Austin,my last boyfriend. He went off to a boarding school cause his parents didn't want to deal with his crap and all the bad stuff he did. After he left I started to get over him and my love for him just started to fade and that's when we stopped talking. And I thought he didn't love me anymore so I did the same.
"A-austin?" I studderd
"Yes,the one and only" I could just imagine him smiling
"You missed me?"he asked
"Uh ya! I did"I said lying
"Good well I gotta go talk to you later babe"
I haven't heard the word 'Babe' in forever from him
"Ok talk to you later then"I said
We both ended the conversation with a short 'bye'. After a good twenty minuets I started to get bored because he couldn't find me so I got out from under the bed and walked around to find Kevin. When I found him I saw him playing a game on my ps4.
"What are you doing?"I asked crossing my arms
"Oh I got bored of playing hide and Brussel sprouts so I found the ps4 and played it"he said not taking his eyes off the screen
"Wow,I I'd l under my bed to find you playing a game?"
"Ummm,yea pretty"still not taking his eyes off the screen
I checked my phone for the time and saw it was almost time for my show to come on the tv.
"We'll move my show is about to play so gotta stop playing games"I said running down my stairs to run into my kitchen to make popcorn and grab some cans of coke. I saw Kevin still playing the game so I put all the snacks down and changed the input to tv.
"Hey!now all my progress is gone"he pouted
I rolled my eyes at him and changed the channel to my show and layer next to Kevin.
"What are we watching anyway"he said putting his arm around me
" law and order svu"I said snacking on popcorn
"Huh"he said looking on his phone and smiled at something
"Watcha looking at?"I asked trying to see his phone
"None of your business"he said lifting up his phone higher
Darn my shortness
"Can I please see"I said with big puppy eyes
"No"he said. But while he was bringing his phone back down to my level I quickly grabbed it and ran to my room and locked it. I could hear his running footsteps towards my room and started banging on my door
"grace!give my phone back"he yelled
"Neva!"I said exaggerating the 'a'
"Grace this is not cool!"he said
I ignored him and looked on his phone. When I saw what he was doing I frowned. I knew this girl she used to be my friend until she betrayed me by kissing one of my old boyfriends. But the conversation her and Kevin were having made me feel like a knife stabbed me in the heart. And that my friends is jealousy.
"Who's Amber?"I asked dumbly
"Ummm"he said
I could just imagine him rubbing his neck
"Are you going to answer the question!?"I could hear my voice rising
"God grace she's just one of my friends why do you even care!?" His voice was also rising
"Well the conversation your having seems like more than a friend" I started to scroll around and found some very reveling photos that they sent each other
"And now your sending nudes to her!" I felt my eyes burning
Do I really have feeling for him
"Grace give me my god damn phone!"
I could feel tears streaming down my face but I wiped them away. I unlocked the door slowly and hung my head down and gave Kevin his phone. I didn't even have to tell him to leave but he just left. I laid on my bed crying and trying not to think of him. Then I thought, I don't need him austin is coming back soon so I can just get back together with him and act like I never knew Kevin. I called Austin.
"Hey babe"he said
"Hey,so Austin,when are you exactly coming back?"I asked
