Not really gone

Chapter 2

I was still looking into his beautiful blue eyes when someone knocked my books out of my hand. Saying "oh sorry, why don't you bend over now and get them." I was enraged and I don't know if it was how close we we're standing or what but I could feel his rage to at the comment my exe's best friend just made. I turned to get my books and when I stood back up to talk to Gunnar he was busy giving Max a nice fresh knuckle sandwich. Gunnar, Gunnar, Gunnar was all I could hear still coming from that little annoying voice I'm my head. He was back to my side in seconds pretending like nothing just had happened. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Gunnar's eyes turn from black to blue. What is going on I thought to myself wondering what had just happened. We got to my locker and Hope was just over a few lockers talking to Kristen also one of our best friends. Kristen was the same hight as me with hair that was streaked with red and was shorter, and thiner. we wore the same size. (except for bra wise,I don't know why her boobs were so huge!!) they were just out of hearing range. He broke the silence " I'm sorry for that, it's just he disrespected you and I didn't want you hurt." It warmed my heart knowing he felt that way, even though we had just met. I replied with " it's ok he deserved it, but why were your eyes black." I said that last part in more of a whisper. Gunnar looked around like his answer was written on the wall. Finally he answered "I don't know some times it just happens when I'm tired and mad." I wasn't completely satisfied with that but I decided, to leave it alone so I changed the subject deciding to learn more about him. My first question I asked was "so were are you from?" He just answered with "L.A. California" he said it so cold though it made me wander why. I didn't want to bring up any bad memories by accident to I asked my next question. "do you have any siblings, that question was a mistake reminding me of my now dead ones. The thought if them making my heart ack. A pained look ran through my face as a tear ran down my check. I wiped it away before more started to role out or before anyone noticed. As well as I had hid that little tear Gunnar seemed to notice. A alarmed look crossed his face as he seemed to know how I felt and why. As for my question he answered with, "yes I have two sisters a younger one Kayla she's a softmore, and a older sister Lucy she is a senior. I also have two brothers but Chris is adopted well everyone of us is except me. He is also a junior. Then I have my oldest brother Cameron he is also a senior with Lucy." Then out of nowhere he started asking me questions. First is was, "do you have any siblings." Once again my heart was crushed, but this time I kept the tear in. I answered with a questionable voice, "not as many as I used to, now I just have a half brother Jessy. The rest of my family died last month in a car accident." Pain rushed through me again at the thought of them. I quickly pushed it down before it could affect me. He noticed my pain, put his hands on my waist and pulled me closer. At first I didn't want to give in but when I got a wif of his sent it weirdly calmed me. I heard him say"It's ok I'm here" like we've known each other for years, but in his arms it felt like we had. Before I started to cry I saw Jessy put a white bag in his pocket leaving the boys bathroom, I was immediately over taken by rage forcing myself away from Gunnar and headed towards Jessy. Quickly I garbed him by his jacket and pulled him closer to me so I could talk to him without anyone hearing us. Harshly I said, "what the hell is that in your pocket" I spat at him. I could see the embarrassment on his face for being cough with drugs by his sister. He tried to lie and tell me he didn't have any but I reached into his jacket and grabbed it before he could stop me. His expression went from embarrassed to mad in the blink of an eye. he tried to grab uh bag from me but I quickly ran into the bathroom and flushed it making sure he'd never get it again. That's when I remembered that I had abandoned Gunnar without an excuse.
