Chapter 3

Killing Me Softly with His Song~ Fugees

ISAAC'S POV//

     People who don't believe music is a form of poetry are heathens. But the funny part is that people who live by music being poetry are the biggest atheists.  Its hard to believe there are some people who don't believe in God. Science didn't put us on this Earth. "Luck" is actually a blessing. There is no such thing as having good luck. There is, however, such a thing as being blessed. It all comes from the things you hear and the people you listen to. As long as you live you will never not be in God's presence. It's hard to avoid a force so strong that once wiped out the entire Earth because its inhabitants were tyrants and ungrateful pieces of shit. I don't mean to be shoving the bible down your throat but its true. The bible says it's blessed to forgive. What Paulina did to me is unforgivable. I don't think I'll ever get over that. I don't mean to be acting like a pussy bitch but its true. I was taught to forgive my enemies because you feel better forgiving rather than holding a grudge. There's nothing like having true love for someone who wants nothing to do with you. The admiration I have for Paulina is indescribable. I haven't talked to her since Graduation and even then all I did was wave at her. But seeing her every day made me feel like I lost a part of me that could never be fixed. She was smiling. She was happy. I love seeing her happy. She was on a totally different agenda. No more me. Just Angie. I love Angie don't get me wrong, she's a sweetheart. But Paulina was mine. I changed for her. I became what she wanted. I was her. 

PAULINAS POV//

He waved at me. That was it. He didn't say goodbye. He didn't hug me. Nothing. That day, something inside me really wanted to jump into Isaac's arms and scream until I was blue in the face. I love Angie but I feel like I was so insensitive about breaking a bond that meant the world to me. I was 12 when I had my first kiss. My first kiss was Isaac. His lips were warm and wet and sweet like a virgins lips. But I knew he had been kissed before. He was like that. Kissing someone didn't mean anything to him but I knew the second his lips met mine it meant something for the first time. He finally found what he was looking for but never knew he was looking for. I remember asking Crystal how to tell if a guy likes you because Isaac was sending me real mixed emotions and all she said was, "the look. You'll know by the look,". I got that look. Before we started dating. That look was mine. That look screamed Paulina. That look was meant for me. 

DANIELS POV//

There is no explanation to give about the time I knew Angie was the one. Apparently, she isn't the one but I'm holding onto all hope. We didn't have a clue what the bond between two lovers was like when we met. We were 6. But then we got to middle school and it all changed. Romanticizing the person you're in love with is the best feeling ever. You get to do things for them that you know makes them happy. They feel feelings for you that are only for you. No one else gets to experience that. Angie isn't my girlfriend anymore but my paternal instincts are still wide awake. Don't gross yourself out. We weren't into that "Daddy" shit. But I already have a bad feeling Paulina is going to pull some fuckshit on my Angie and Angie will then decided to believe me and even Crystal when we told her Paulina was bad news from the start. It's true. She cheated on her boyfriend. She's going to cheat on Angie. 

CRYSTALS POV// 

Think about this for a second. Two people meet when they're barely old enough to endure puberty. Those two people are shit deep in love with each other. One day those two people along with a class, go to Rio. While they're in Rio, one person from that two-person charade decided they want to fall in love with their best friend after one mangy kiss. Sound familiar? That's the bullshit Paulina pulled and now we're all entangled in her web. Paulina may be able to fool Angie but I already know whats going to happen. I get it. Love is love. Don't at me. But when it comes to Paulina. Love is nonexistence. It's all lust. I've seen her in the act of lust. Her entire relationship with Isaac was lust. It's very easy to get lust and love mixed up but its very hard to identify the two. What she has with Angie is lust. There is no such thing as love when it comes to Paulina because she has no idea how to do that. How do I know this? Ask Sean. 

TOMMYS POV//

Let me be the one to clear all of this shit up. Isaac likes Paulina but Paulina likes Angie. Daniel likes Angie but Angie hates Daniel but is still showing pity because she can't help herself. Paulina and Crystal are pissed about that but Angie is too Daniel whipped to care. Sean gave up with Crystal but crystal moved on to the Rio boy from last summer, Gabe, I think. He's hot not homo. Kassidy is trying to suppress the memory of my big dick energy by dating anything with a pulse and Grace is still a piggyback. Brenton. My man Brent. He ghosted us forever ago. There you have it. A complete short summary about the ridiculous shit we all have to deal with but we keep acting like we aren't dealing with it because we want everyone to be happy. It's not working. 

ANGIES POV//

And he said on the seventh day thou shall rest. On the seventh line, thou shall close the book. On the seventh cry, thou shall bow down and present all praise to the master. Douth shall never shun the number seven. For seven brings thee great and eternal fortune with ultimate enlightenment. The forbidden. Seven.
