Without You

Chapter 12

Wang Yuan's POV

~Next Morning~

"Xiao Li, wake up." I say, gently shaking her shoulder.

"I'm up..." She groans, rubbing her eyes.

She gets dressed, we eat, and then head to school.

"I'm gonna go talk to Qin Qin before class." Xiao Li tells me.

"Alright. See you in class. Don't be late." I answer.

She nods and runs off.

I arrive at Mrs. Wu's class a few minutes early. Mrs. Wu wasn't in the classroom and the door was locked. I leaned against the wall next to the door and checked my phone.

"Yuan Yuan!" A squeaky voice hurts my ears. I look up to see Makayla. I look at her in disgust.

"Uh..." I say, inching away from her. She pins me to the wall quickly as I try to get her off me without hurting her.

She smashes her lips onto mine. I push her away in disgust... but it was too late.

"Wang Yuan?!" I see Xiao Li standing there.

"Xiao Li, it's not what it looks like! She-"

"W-We're over!" She cries and runs away.

I glare at Makayla before running after her.

She was crying in Junkai's arms.

"Junkai!" I say, walking over to them.

"Don't come any closer! I knew it was a bad idea to let you date her! You're just too childish! You can never keep a relationship, Wang Yuan! Just leave her alone!" Junkai says, angrily.

I back away, hurt. I can't believe he would say that to me. I looked at Xiao Li. To see her crying like that, hurt me even more.

I quickly ran to the storage room. Ugh... why did I let this happen? I should've just went with Xiao Li or ran when Makayla arrived.

"Wang Yuan?" Qin Qin steps into the storage room.

"What? Are you here to yell at me, too?" I ask bitterly, putting my head into my knees, frustrated.

"No. I just wanna know what happened. I don't believe that you would choose to kiss Makayla." Qin Qin says, rolling her eyes.

"I was standing next to the classroom because Mrs. Wu wasn't there yet. Makayla came and kissed me and Xiao Li thought I kissed her." I reply, drawing small circles on the floor.

"That's what I thought. You would never do such a thing. You should tell Xiao Li and Junkai." She answers.

"That's not very easy. I doubt she would even listen to me for a second." I groan.

"You'll never know if you don't try. Come on, we should go to class." Qin Qin says, helping me up.
