My friend Britney and I ran along the long hallways until we reached the upstairs library closet. She quickly jammed the keys into the door, before frantically turning the doorknob. Out of breath and panting, we run in the the library, and collapsed. I shook frantically as I turned off my phone. "He told me to meet him here now, I don't know what's going on. He hates me all because of him again. I don't see why every time Caleb dumps me he has to spread lies about me. Isaac walked out from behind a bookcase and started laughing hysterically.
Me and Britney locked him in the library and I screamed at him and then he said I was just a girl or something and I shouldn't be threatening boys he kept just staring at me and saying "you can't even hurt me." And I kept saying "I don't want to Isaac.! So calm yourself" and then he tried to smack me, so I grabbed his wrist and flipped him out of a chair into the floor with one movement. Then I sat there, beside him in the floor and he looked shocked and confused as hell and I laughed and said "what? Caleb forget to mention that I'm crazy and actually pretty strong?" And then he just layed in the floor, watching me before he got up and walked over towards me. Issac grabbed my waist, kissed me, and then smiled. My mouth dropped, and he chuckled before saying "you're really surprised? I thought it would be obvious, didn't mean to startle you." And I sat down in the floor and laughed hysterically, then Isaac walked over and whispered in my ear "maybe she should go talk a small walk. She looks like she's about to faint." And I walked over to Britney, and told her.
She started walking down the hall and Isaac grabbed my wrists and pulled me on his lap in the floor, and I ended up straddling him in the floor. He explained why he always acted the way he did (because he didn't want me to know yet), why he hid it (Caleb would've been pissed due to his lingering feelings). I sat and stared into his deep blue eyes. I'm really straddling the boy who hated me a few months ago? Britney walked in the room, and sat in the chair just watching us with shock. And then Isaac rose up, and started making out with me and as if on cue, Caleb walked in with teary eyes whispering violently to himself, and seen me sitting on Isaac's lap kissing him and his face froze. Before I knew it, I was on my feet, running into Caleb's arms. But Caleb refused and instead, walked straight up to Isaac and punched him in the mouth, causing a trickle of blood to fall to the floor. Caleb clearly wasn't happy, so I did what I thought was best and followed my instincts. I hugged Caleb, and begged him not to do it again, and watched as his eyes studied my face for any signs of anger, harm, or disgust. He looked towards Isaac and yelled " Do you think this is a fucking game?! I told you so many times to stay away from her. She's mine, and yes I fuck up a lot, but I figured my cousin would have a little more respect then to sit and have my girlfriend grind on him!"
And he looked super confused and then let out a sigh before speaking again " well actually she isn't my girlfriend, and I fucked that up a long time ago. I have always pushed her away, and apparently I pushed her right into your open arms.! I thought you hated her? You called her so many names, made fun of her, and even threatened her! I only acted that way towards her to impress you. Wait, You set me up!" Issac stood up, and said "Caleb, you missed the best part, you should've watched her climb up on my lap and laugh with me. I'm sure that's something you'd love to see. Come on, let her see how much more damage you can do, it only pushes her more towards me. If you aren't mad enough yet, I could gladly grab her and show you some of what she can do for me that you don't get anymore."
I screamed. My entire world just shattered and I literally froze time. Everything stopped, and I walked over and started crying. I walked back beside of Caleb, cleared my throat and time unfroze. I grabbed his arm, and he turned to me, anger visible, and looked straight into my eyes and said "let's go, now." Even though he said it harshly I almost agreed but Isaac spoke up "she doesn't want to leave with you, she wants to stay here and be happy with me.! Why would she go with you? So you can ruin her more?!" And that's when it settled in and the pieces connected. Caleb's hurt, and it's my turn to heal him. Issac seems so sweet though, so I looked towards Caleb and flatly said "go get in the car. Give me 15 minutes, and Britney's go with him, don't let him do anything stupid, by the way" I didn't move my blank eyes from his until he turned and went outside.
Isaac got up and apologized for what just happend. He kissed me again, , leaving the subtle taste of strawberries, blood, and whiskey. I almost didn't want to let go. I should help him stop the bleeding from his lip, but I can't. I grab my purse and start walking out the door, and then as I grabbed the door knob, I heard Isaac softly say "damn I love her" and I ran outside. As I jumped in the drivers seat, Caleb wouldn't speak. I turned and looked to you laying in the backseat and you shrugged your shoulders. I drove off, and dropped you off at my apparent and me and Caleb went to go talk.
