When Opposites Attracht

Did Five Months Mean Anything To You?

"You're way out of your league Talia. I'm sorry, but we can't be together." Jake's words resonated in my head over and over again.

"So you mean, this is it? This is the end of us?" I replied trying my best to keep my tears from pouring over.

"Yes Tal. It's not you it's-"

"Oh don't start that "It's not you, it's me" bullshit! Do you really think I'm that stupid to not know why this is happening? You slept with Amber! Not to mention Chelsey from the volleyball team, Jenna from Mc Kinney High, Deanna from the cheerleading squad and Layla! My best friend! You lying, dirty, cheating, slimy, son of a b-"

"Oh don't start calling names Talia. I know very well you slept with Tyler."

"Maybe I wouldn't have to if you were being a better boyfriend! Jake, I loved you. I made sure everything I did benefited you, and this is my thank you?! Did five months mean anything to you?! I really hope you and Layla are happy together. Goodluck treating your STD's at Jackson Memorial."

I walked away carrying whatever pride and dignity I had left. That asshole! He left me for my best friend. I knew there was something going on between those two. I can't believe I trusted him, and her!

I was walking to my Physics class when i bumped into someone. He must be pretty strong cause he sent my straight to the floor. 

"I'm so sorry. I really didn't mean to. I was rushing to get to class and...I'm really sorry." He said nervously.

"No, it's my fault. I wasn't looking up and it should be me apologizing, not you." I relpied hastily, in a rush to get to class.

"I'm Joshua."

"I'm Tal-"

"Talia. Yeah, I know who you are. We have Physics and Maths together.You're actually a lot prettier up close. Umm...listen, do you mind if I walk with you to class? I'm kind of not in the mood right now to get beaten up by Jake. You know, since he's your boyfriend and all, he might do what you say."

"Jake and I kinda broke up this morning, but I'm sure you can walk to class with me." I said to him with a smile.

Joshua wasn't your average nerd. He wore black fitted jeans with a plaid blue flannel shirt. He had his glasses sitted comfortably on the top of his head and a brown leather book bag drapped over his right shoulder. He wasn't chubby at all, but he sure did have a six pack. He had muscles fighting to rip the sleeves of his shirt, which definitely meant he worked out. He had tanned skin with accentual Asian features. His smile brite and his dimples prominant.

Maybe he could very well be a keeper. Who know's he is very cute.

"Why don't we go to class then." I said to him, walking a few steps ahead.
