Falling for You (Lesbian Love Story)

Chapter Eighteen: Painful Promises

Chapter Eighteen:

Lux:

I don't think I've ever been more furious in my life. Heat steemed from my chest as Carson marched me over to an empty classroom.

"What the hell was that Lux?!" She shouted in a clipped tone. I rolled my eyes and leaned on the desk. Was she seriously questioning what I wanted to do when she had her tounge down someone elses throat?!

"What do you mean my dear? I mean if you break the 'rules', why can't I?" I shrugged nonchalantly. She gawked at me as if I had two heads.

"The rules! Ha! Do you think I wanted to kiss him?"

"It seemed pretty evident as you strutted down the hall and locked lips." She really must think I'm an idiot.

"Lux, my father caught us. Well not us specifically, but I had to make a good excuse as to why I came home drunk from the party. And I couldn't say 'Hey dad, I just took a drive with a girl I'd been hanging out with for a couple months. And we parked in a parking lot and had sex in her mother's car'! So Matthew was my only way out and he only agreed to it if I acted like his girlfriend." I scoffed and looked her. It sounded reasonable but that kiss kept replaying in my head over and over again. But I looked at her again and there was more there.

"Fine, its a decent excuse but really you could have easily turned your head and let him kiss your cheek." She rolled her eyes and stalked towards me.

"And your excuse is? Kiara just happened to fall on your lips." I looked at her and finally noticed what was there. Why I would sit for hours reading about Genevieve wondering where the resemblance was from. I like her. I liked the way she looked, the way she talked , the way she held me that night... But it scares me, it scares me so much.

"No, I wanted to kiss her. She was the first person how was nice to me in god-awful school. Did you forget what you did to me the first day? You humiliated me!" I was rambling now letting it all out as she sat there with her mouth wide open.

"So I made up a plan Carson, I wanted to use something to find something to get you back , not even realizing that it would turn out to be me. I'm your big secret,Carson! You were just a pawn it worked so easily, I think that what made it a little too satisfying." Her hand slapped my cheek stinging me once again like she did that night. Tears filled my eyes but not from her hit but from how evil I sounded. She'll never forgive me.

"You bitch!" She screeched. And she dove on me hitting me as hard as she could. I slapped her back flipping her over as she continously struggled beneath me kicking and scratching.

"Carson!" I shouted to stop her but she kept going. She eventually rolled me of her and I landed harshly on the floor.

"I don't ever want to see your face again! Do you understand me?!" She spit at me with so much vileness I thought she would explode. She came up face to face with me and said.

"And find some new friends while your at it!" She looked to me one more time and strutted away. Tears filled my eyes but I couldn't release them. It was my fault I was in pain, I caused this. I lied on the ground for a few more heart beats before the bell shrieked in my ears shocking me back to reality.

The day went on in total silence. I checked my face it the screen of my phone and saw the cuts that lined my cheek, forehead, and eyebrow. I groaned knowing I was definitely going to hear about. Lunch came and went with me finding solace in the garden area that Carson and I shared. Everyone from the group shot me daggers as I walked by. I know they know something but it certainly isn't the truth.
