Haunted (Under Construction)

Butterflies (Offical)

A/N: Okay so some of you might be wondering why all your comment, votes, reads, and dedications are missing. That's because I published the teaser chapter the wrong way and WATTPAD published each chapter as a sepperate storie. Well I would apriciat it if you could help me. If you hade a dedication please email me and tell me what chapter it was. Then I'll rededicate it to you =). I'm so sad.... my 5,000 reads, 436 votes, and 43 comments are gone :'( that took a LONG time to earn..... oh well! So anyway sorry for the confusion.

I stood there frozen. It felt as if everyone within a 10-mile radius was gossiping about me. However, in reality, the only ones who were gossiping about me were right in front of me. There at the end of the hallway stood Taylor, Maverick, and Terrance. They talked in low voices with serious visages. They all turned to look at me. I felt the bile form in my throat start to form. 

"Sense when were they friends?" I asked Jericho. He slipped his arm around my waist in an attempt to comfort me. 

"I don't know." He said as he ushered me away. When we were out of there sight, Jericho rested me against the lockers. His face came down close to mine and I could feel his breath. I stared into his teal eyes with flakes of green and blue in them. 

"Avery, listen to me. I don't know what they are doing, but if any of them come over to your house...go into your room, lock your door, and don't come out until you know they're gone. Do you understand? Better yet text me or call me and tell me what's going on. I just want to know your okay." I could feel my cheeks heat up from his words. Then Taylor's face invaded my mind and I felt guilty. I know knew why they broke up, I heard her thoughts several times. Iv'e known for a while. I looked down at the floor. 

"What's wrong?" He asked me. I shook my head. I did not want to tell him out of fear that he might go back to her if he found out. 

"Avery, tell me." He said in a compelling tone. 

"I saw why you broke up with Taylor." 

"So why is it bothering you so much?" 

"Because I know that you think she cheated...she didn't. It was just a rumor. " I told him. Realization dawned on him followed by grief. I knew it... he still felt for her and he was going to run to her now that he knew the truth. He shook his head and then locked eyes with me. 

"I don't care. Taylor is selfish. I feel pity for her, but what's done is done. Avery, I like you not Taylor, and that isn't going to change." My heat skipped a beat hearing him say it. I had always known what he felt for me, but I was not sure if I felt the same way. However, I knew one thing... I hated Taylor so hearing him say that he favored me made me happy, and I could not help but smile. 

"I know you do, but it's not like we're dating..." I said in a tiered voice. He rested his forehead on mine and caressed my face in his hands as he said, 

"I plan on changing that." I was going to say something but the bell rang, and he pulled me along saying that we needed to get to class. 

After science class, I walked away with an unpleasant scowl on my face. 

"Come on, Avery talk to me." Jericho whined to the twentieth time. 

"Dude, she isn't going to budge." Tyler said.  I ignored them went went straight to my locker. as I opened my locker and switched out my books I slammed my locker shut. Allen lauged and Ash looked over at him

"Whats got her so mad?" She asked him. I looked over at Jericho and glared at him.

"Don't you dare." He warmed me. I just scoffed and looked over at Ash, 

"I'm mad because he had decided to sit behind me in science, and the entire time he played with my hair, and to make things worse he kissed me! Well- not on the lips... on the neck but that's worse! A boy had asked me if I wanted to be his lab partner for the day, but Jericho- being Jericho- came up behind me, wrapped his arms around my waist, and kissed my neck I just wanted the ground to swallow me whole!"   When I was finished explaining, Ashlin busted into a fit of laughter.
