chapter nine

''If you don't come down now then I'm not giving you a ride!'' Aidan shouted up to his half asleep sister. ''Coming.'' Natalya mumbled, quickly putting on a pair of converse and heading downstairs.

Natalya had spent the last couple of days feeling extremely sorry for herself. Corey hadn't called, nor had he even been round to see Aidan. She should've seen it coming, but she just didn't expect it too.

Both siblings got into the car and began to drive. Natalya's stomach flipped once she saw who's house they were approaching.

''Why are we picking up Corey?'' Her voice suddenly trembled ; so badly that she couldn't conceal it. ''Because I pick him up on Mondays. What's wrong with you?'' Aidan's tone actually showed slight concern.

Natalya just shook her head, brushing off any fearful feeling she had inside of her.

Corey came out of his door and looked as desirable as ever. His dirty blonde hair was messy, but the type that looked neat. He was wearing grey sweatpants and a simple white t-shirt, outlining his body perfectly. Natalya nearly dribbled at the sight of him.

Corey made quick eye contact with Natalya and then quickly got into the car. A rush of guilt flooded through him. He wanted to just cuddle her and make him hers. So why? Why couldn't he do it?

''How was it with Lala last night?'' Aidan winked at Corey, bumping fists with him. ''It was okay, only a date night.'' Corey had flashbacks to last night. How he didn't enjoy himself, because all he was thinking about was Natalya. Even when he was making love to his own girlfriend, he nearly moaned Natalya's name.

Corey couldn't control his feelings for her for much longer, but he didn't want to hurt Lala. Maybe for once he should put his own feelings first, but he just couldn't bring himself to end things with her.

The one thing Corey despised about himself was how he hadn't spoken to Natalya about the kiss they shared. He told her he had to sort things and he wanted too. But, he couldn't think of how too. He was thinking about how she's probably hurt and literally so angry at him right now. Corey never wanted to hurt her, just love and care for her.

So why, why can't he end things with Lala and be with the girl he truly loves and adores?

Natalya could easily sense that Corey was trying to drift off from that topic. So why not have fun and make him talk about it?

''No, please. Do describe how 'date night' was'' Natalya looked down into her lap. ''Corey got laid, that's what.'' Aidan laughed to himself. ''Why does everything you say, why does it have to revolve around sex?'' Corey scoffed slightly.

Yes it was true. He had sex, but he wasn't going to brag about it. ''Dude, why not brag about it?'' Natalya scoffed at her brother. ''You treat girls like they're there for your pleasure. Like they're servants to you. Woman are human too, and a lot more respectful than asshole men like you.'' She flashed a fake smile and turned her head the other way.

''I do respect girls. But, I like getting laid. Every guy is the same.'' Aidan said defensively. ''Sure, every guy likes sex. But, you don't have to constantly brag about it and be disrespectful about girls. They're people too and deserved to be treated kindly and with respect.'' Corey said with a serious tone.

Natalya adored the words that Corey had just said. He was one of the only guys who didn't treat girls like shit. Well, apart from her at the moment.

Before Aidan could talk more nonsense, they'd pulled up to the school and Natalya had gotten out. She didn't look back to say goodbye to them. She couldn't bare to see Corey for any longer.

''Hello there, my love.'' Winona swung her arm around Natalya. She could sense something was wrong with her immediately. ''Who's pissed you off.'' Tears started to fall from Natalya's eyes. Winona immediately dragged her into the bathroom and pulled her into a hug.

''H-he kissed me.'' Winona became wide eyed. She didn't even have to here Corey's name to know it was about him. ''But he's still with Lala so he's basically cheated on her and now I feel guilty, but I also want him to just talk to me.'' Natalya wiped her nose with a tissue and broke apart from the hug.

''He said he needed to 'sort some things' what the fuck does he mean?'' Natalya stuttered.

''He probably feels conflicted. I can tell he wants to be with you, he wouldn't of kissed you if he didn't. A good guy like Corey who's in a relationship would risk the one he's in if he didn't want somebody else. I know he seems like an asshole, but maybe just give him time. I'll be here with you, like a shoulder to cry on.'' Winona smiled sweetly and the sad girl in front of her.

''But if you ever stain my denim jacket with tears, we will have trouble.'' Natalya laughed at this. She could always count on Winona for cheering her up.

The two headed back to homeroom and sat with their group. Everybody exchanged laughs, even Natalya. She could always count on her friends to cheer her up, she loved them dearly.

''Listen up, children.'' Mr James shouted. All of the students became silent, they never got summoned to the assembly hall after homeroom for nothing. ''Today is activity day. Each of you have been put into a group with your classmates that I will now announce.'' Natalya's body went into shock, who's group would she be in?

''Natalya Jones... Winona Ryder... Justin Thomas... Annie Rhodes... Corey Haim.'' Both Corey and Natalya became wide eyed, both fearful of actually seeing each other and having to communicate.

''Let the fun begin.'' Natalya mumbled to herself.
