"Pleasure of love last but a moment, pain of love lasts a lifetime." -Bette Davis
I huffed and put my weight on my other leg, my feet hurting from the heels. I can do this, I just have to walk in and ignore everyone's stares. I am not going to break down and let him get what he wants. I ran my hand through my hair and then let it run down my face. What am I thinking? Just by looking at him I could lose myself again like all the other times...
No, that was before I knew he was cheating on me...before I knew the kind of person he really is deep inside. A jerk, heartless, imbecile, ugly person who only thinks with his little friend. It must be really tiny...okay why am I thinking about that?! I fixed my bag and closed my eyes getting ready for the stares that will be coming my way. At least I dresses up to have some other excuse as too why they were starring at me.
I walked through the doors sighing of relief mentally when it wasn't like the movies or books where everyone stops what they are doing to look at you. I kept my face expressionless and when I caught a few guy's stare I gave them a small smile. I wasn't the little Alison who was taken by Victor anymore, its about time everyone knew this.
Someone came up from behind me and wrapped there arms around me before whispering, "Hey beautiful." His smell filled my nose and instead of making me dizzy, it made me almost puke. That smell didn't comfort me anymore it brought back how naive I was. Four days passed, those four days I cried myself to sleep thinking what I possibly did wrong or what I didn't have...
I roughly got out his grasp and faced him with a blank expression. "Don't do that." I said my voice coming out cold.
"What?" Victor said shocked by my behavior. "Why?"
"You know perfectly well why." I spat out looking him directly in the eyes. Realization came to him. "Oh, that." He said giving me his award heart fluttering smile. "I thought I would let it pass and keep it between us. That means we are still together." He finished by bring me closer towards him. The nerve of him, I'm not the same 'I'll do whatever you want' Ali.
"YOU let it pass?" I said raising my eyebrow.
"I meant-" I cut him off by pushing myself away from him and glaring at him. "I know what you meant! I thought you would get the hint to leave me alone when my knee came in contact with your balls and face." I said the end of my lips twitching up in a smile.
"Alison, you and I know perfectly well that I can ruin you reputation by saying you were the one cheating on me with a hobo." Victor said letting his real self appear, a jerk who didn't really care about me. Why didn't I see this earlier?
"You and I both know that hobo has a better chance of getting in my pants then you do." I said giving him a innocent smile before walking away from a mouth hanging open Victor.

I tapped my pencil on the desk but then brought it up to my mouth biting on it. I told Kendra and Blake I was coming to school so why weren't they here? I could feel people stares already, I guess Victor wasn't bluffing. Pity.
"Class settle down, now we have a new student please make him feel welcome." Mr. Wood said loudly. I couldn't take my eyes off the door where I could just picture Kendra busting through that door any second now. She wouldn't dare leave me alone when I finally decided to come, would she?
"Say something about your self, David." Mr. Wood said more quietly now that the class was silent, that's strange...
"Hi my name is David and I like sports, art, anything really." A smooth soft voice said. I could feel chills run down my spine from just hearing it. I looked towards the front of the class room to see a tall muscular guy with a white t-shirt clinging to his chest. Sea blue eyes and dark brown hair messed up in a sexy way. Everything about him screams PLAYER! The way he looked into girls eyes making them believe they had all his attention, the way he held his head... and that smile.
I looked away when my eyes locked with his, I don't want anything to do with someone that is just like Victor. Before Mr. Wood could say anything Kendra busted through the door like she had been running. Her eyes locked with mine and a huge smile broke through. I'm guessing it was because I was actually here or I looked decent. Last time she saw me, my eyes were rimmed red and I looked like well... shit.
"Kendra, late again I see." Mr. Wood said shaking his head disappointed. Mr. Wood continued to speak to David while the whole class had his attention. Kendra ignored him and walked over to the empty seat next to me.
"Where were you?" I whispered trying to be mad but failed.
"Blake got in a fight." Kendra whispered back. I spun my head towards her when she said that, Blake fighting?
"With who?" I said a little too loudly.
"Miss Williams since you were so kindly to volunteer, you would be showing David around and catching him up on what we've been doing in this class." Mr. Wood said giving me a look that held no argument.
"But I haven't been here for four days." I said quickly trying to find an excuse to not have that happen, I do not want to be around someone like him.
"Your a smart girl you'll find a way." Mr. Wood said calmly.
"I rather not-" I said still trying to get my way out of it. This is the first time I ever talk more than a word to him.
"Miss William, I chose you, now draw a line and step over it." Mr. Wood said in a annoyed tone. I guess today wasn't going good for him either. I nodded my head but still didn't look towards David. "Kendra move to another empty seat David will now be seating there."
Kendra was about to protest but Mr. Wood glared at her stopping her in her tracks. She was pissed but still gave me a small smile.
"Victor." She whispered before walking towards the only other empty seat which was in front of Mr. Wood. I froze when she mentioned his name. What about Victor? I brought my pencil to my mouth and bit on it hard when I realized Victor is the person Blake got in a fight with. Oh hell...
I guess that was Blake's payback for what Victor did to me... or the rumors he is going to spread or already spread...
"Hi." The same soft smooth voice said next to me, how the hell did he get here so fast?
"Hi." I muttered still not looking at him, I could just feel his gaze on me. Why god, why? I looked from the corner of my eye to see I was right. I sighed before facing him as everyone began to talk, the teacher saying we had to discuss some thing I didn't listen too.
"Look I don't know why he paired you with me because I have seriously no idea what we are doing, for all I know we are probably taking about high pregnant women." I said looking into his eyes. He smiled, a smile that for unknown reasons made something in my stomach stir. It has to be nothing. Maybe its because I haven't eaten breakfast... yup that has to be it.
"I guess with both will figure it out then." He said still smiling. Why hasn't he made any sexual comments or pick up lines? Is he really a player or did I judge him too fast? "Besides it takes two to tango." He finally said making everything click into place. Great, now I am stuck with a player I have to show around and would probably make my life even more chaotic.
