"Why am I mad, I don't get it, It seems like every time you give me signs, and I miss it I did it again, I admit it I left you standing there, and now I regret it Seems like every time I get the chance I lose my cool and I blow it And I get all tongue tied Lost in your eyes I'm a fool and I know it I should've kissed you"

My date with Xabriel went extremely well.
I couldn't run or hide from my feelings anymore. I really liked him, and I was willing to take the risk. I wasn't strong enough to keep my guard up twenty-four/seven. I wanted to see how things could go. It's better to try and fail than to not try at all.
I don't know what it was, but there was definitely something between me and Xabriel. The bond we created these past few days was stronger than you could imagine. Hearing his voice had the power to make me happy on my worse days. I enjoyed his company and I craved being near him day and night.
The warning bell sounded, taking me away from my thoughts. I grabbed my English textbooks out of my locker and made my way to my first period class.
I sat in my usual seat and started copying the notes on the board. My writing came to a stop when I felt someone's presence next to me. A strong strawberry scent filled my nostrils, and a perfectly manicured hand hit my desk. I let out a frustrated groan, already knowing what this was about.
"May I help you, Brittany?" I asked giving her a fake smile
"Yes, you actually can. You can help by staying the hell away from my man."
"If he's yours he sure has a funny way of showing it." I laughed
Anger was soon displayed all over her face. I couldn't begin understand why she was mad at me. If she was going to be mad anybody, she should've been mad at Xabriel. I wasn't in the mood for her bullshit today, so if she pushed me far enough I was going to let her have it.
"Anytime a dude comes whenever you call, does whatever you say, and fucks you senseless, I think you have the right to call them yours."
"Okay, so you and Xabriel used to have sex, whoop-de-fucking-doo. Do you want a metal?"
"Used to? Sweetie, he came to my house in a heartbeat yesterday."
Yesterday? My heart rate increased and my breathing got heavy, but I tried my best to hide it.
"Ok, and? What does that have to do with me?" I replied, not letting her see how hurt I truly was. Anger and jealousy washed over me. Why? Why would he sleep with another girl when he's trying to win me over? I should've known better than to trust him. I thought Xabriel was done with Brittany, and for her to brag about having sex with him hurt me, and it hurt more than it should've. I understood that I had no right to be angry at him, but I couldn't control the way I felt.
