Because Of You

"It was always this way."

T A Y S A

I sit at the white bench in the cafeteria alone. Biting my apple and tasting the sweet liquid inside.

I watch as children waited hours to get their lunch in the line while some just joked around with they friends at their tables.

My gaze then turn to Alex, Alexander, Derrick, Jake, Angela and Max who was at they own table.

Alex and Alexander, the blonde hair twins as what the school called them, both wearing the same blue varsity jacket with the school's football logo a Blue Jay, black rip jeans and black converse.

The only difference between them was they're eye colors.

Alex has dark, honeyed brown eyes while Alexander has blue eyes that made you never forget the color of the ocean, even after not being there in years.

I glance at Derrick, his tightly curled black hair was something I was mostly in love with.

The times I use to comb it and watching as it curled back up instantly.

The times when I use to enjoy every second I spent with him.

Now he was with my best friend.

"Taysa," I was suddenly interrupted by Gray who put his tray down on the table, throwing his bag carelessly next to him on the floor as he stare at me.

"Shouldn't you be over there?" I point my head in the direction where Angela was.

He raise an eyebrow, "No, why?" He ask with a puzzle look.

"Because that's your friend." I reply, "After all, you have plans to hang out with her later." I throw my bag over my shoulder turning to him to say my last words before leaving.

"I'll just be in my ass mood like half of the times." I was about to walk away from him, leaving him there but as I took a step forward — he grab my hand.

"Taysa — it's nothing like that." I couldn't help but get distracted in his soft, puppy dog brown eyes as he stare at me.

"You don't have an ass mood —" He pause, glancing up at the cafeteria's roof before turning back to me, "Well, none that I have seen yet."

"And besides," He shrug, "I enjoy spending my time with you then her."

"We hardly even spend time together."

"But when we do — it's amazing. Isn't it? I mean — we spent time yesterday together. Wasn't that amazing?"

I stiffly nod, remembering what happen after the time we spent together.

Mother words begin to play in my head as Gray let go of my hand.

I was trying to live a normal life this whole entire time yet I was never met to.

If I don't be careful, he'll find me.

I bite my bottom lip, but it's only a matter of time before he actually do.

He doesn't give up easily.

Revenge boils in his blood until he's satisfied.

And he wouldn't be satisfied until I'm dead and knowing that, I needed to be careful.
