Beyond The Barriers

Chapter Nine

RECAP:-

I leaned forward making sure to keep my eyes open. He didn't interject or seem to stop me in my tracks so I carried on seeing as it seemed like the right thing to do. I closed my eyes and just went straight in for the kill and kissed him. Planting a small but sweet kiss on his lips.

Whoa... I never thought of myself as the forward type or one to show my emotions, so doing that made me feel weird. It was like it wasn't me controlling my body at that moment in time. I played things cool not forward. When I was ten a boy named, Jason liked me. I liked him back but of course, I knew but didn't make life easier for him. I acted hostile towards him and eventually he moved on.

But like I said, life isn't a movie and he didn't respond how I expected him too. In movies they would kiss you back and deepen the kiss and end up bedding you. The last one was out of the question as we were in a public park. Although no one was really outside and the sun was starting to set.

But the look on his face was one of pure shock. I think he was more shocked than I was myself. I was never good at reading people. Especially ones that I had meet just over two and a half weeks ago. Then a scowl spread across his face and he responded in a deep, husky voice, one not similar to his usual self.

"Chyna, you really shouldn't have done that?"

Then...

Over at the Whites household:

I would not stand for that behaviour in this household. My rules will be respected; I will not be seen as a laughing stock. So I marched over to Xavier's room leaving his sobbing girlfriend with an ice pack over her face because of the cuts and bruises she got when fighting. She had got clubbed whereas Chyna had merely received a scratch on her body.

I didn't even need to knock because now I was livid. Slamming the door open I was met with silence and an open window. Oh...no. I knew this would happen. When I ran to the window to see how far they had gotten, I was met with a sight of Chyna sprawled over Xavier, straddling his hips.

But I didn't interject or even make a sound because I had a plan up my sleeves. Give then twenty-four hours, they will be right...back...here.

Chyna

My mind was stuck in a whirlpool of bewilderment as my brain tried to process the fact that he had slapped me. I was dazed, frazzled; words could not describe how livid I was right now. He didn't interject or stop me from kissing him so why did he have to slap me. I knew I could throw down slick moves and bust his ass in a swift amount of minutes.

But having someone you care for, doing you bad, hurting them back only made the pain inside worse. So I just got up and walked away. To where, I had no clue. I just needed a breather. As I walked away he pulled my arm back " I am sorry for that... I just... I don't...let me explain". I pulled myself out his grip and ran as fast as I could.

Xavier

My mind kept playing that same scene on repeat. I was raised to never hit a woman but I was also always taught to not play with people's feelings. I didn't interject when she kissed me but she shouldn't have done that. I am very complex person. Not very straightforward with a lot of baggage to carry. I did enjoy the kiss but knew it would lead to other things.

Unfortunately, my reflexes were faster than brain was. Think with your head and not with your fist, that catchphrase applied most definitely to me. I felt bad after that because the look on her face was one of pure horror, I tried to explain to her that I was no good for her but she didn't wait to hear it. I would leave her for a few minutes and find her cause the sun was setting and it was almost getting dark. But when I looked up she wasn't near the swings anymore.
