The 4

Toxic Love

It was the first day of school and Stephanie and I were holding hands like all couples do.  Stephanie and Timmy don't get along at all so I decided to go with Stephanie instead. Timmy and I have almost all our classes together. I spot Zoe and say hi to her, Stephanie gives me a look.

"Hey blondie step away from my man." 

"Hey Steph don't be rude." I nudged her to be nice. I notice Zoe gives her a look. 

"Kian do you like her?" I look at her. 

"No she is only a friend to me." I spot Timmy down the hallway. 

"Hey Kian." 

"Hey Timmy." 

"Is Zoe always that quiet or what. I said hi to her and she didn't say anything." He looks at Stephanie and then at me. "I heard that Nicole is holding her hostage in the group. But she is usually very outgoing during the first day of school." 

"Yeah Steph thinks I would dump her for Zoe. But I am worried that she might like some guys from our grade." 

"Don't worry." We enter our first class and he already has a seating chart for us. His name is Mr.James, he taught us a lesson on English. Timmy and I were bored out of our minds. Mr. James kept looking at me and Timmy since we were making faces at each other. He called us after class and I was nervous. 

"Why were you guys fooling off in our class?" Mr.James said firmly.

"We are sorry but it's the first day and we were bored out of our minds."

"Okay go on. Sorry you're actually learning something on the first day." Zoe came crying to me. 

"Your girlfriend tried choking me with a cord in tech class." Stephanie came walking out. 

"Steph why did you do that to Zoe?" 

"Well I was just charging the school computer and my computer was behind her."

"Steph tell the truth." She rolled her eyes and walked to her next class. 

"What happened to Zoe? Why is she crying?" Timmy said worried. 

 "Apparently Steph tried choking her with a cord." 

"She sounds like a psycho. What are you gonna do?"

"I don't want her to hurt anyone else but I guess I gotta break up with her." 

 "Oh god good luck with that." With the class I had a class with Stephanie and I was shaking because I would think she would murder me if I broke up with her. The next teacher also had a seating chart and I was assigned to sit next to Zoe. I saw the jealousy in Stephanie's eyes. Zoe was too scared to sit by me. 

"Hey Zoe it's okay. I won't let Stephanie hurt you." Stephanie gave me the signal that she

has her eye on me.  It was after class and I grabbed Stephanie. "Hey Stephanie I need to talk to you." 

"What is it? I still have an eye on Zoe." I talk a deep breath. 

"So I don't wanna be with you anymore." 

"Beg your pardon Kian!"

"I said that I don't wanna be with you anymore. I'm scared you might hurt the ones I love."

"Well now I am! You betcha that I will even hurt you! I knew you liked her!" Stephanie storms off. I see that Zoe was eavesdropping. 

"Hey Kian can I tell you something?"

 "Sure is it something good?" 

"Yeah. I lied to Stephanie that I liked you." 

"Oh...yeah we might we be together but let's keep it a secret." 

"Okay..." A figure was behind the wall. Eavesdropping.
