BRING! The bell rung just as Tyler was running up the stairs. He met Nora waiting on a bench behind the doors.
"Hey Ty! Where were you, we're going to be late again!" Nora said jokingly as Tyler grabbed her hand and rushed down the corridor to homeroom. They pulled the down open just as their teacher was taking attendance. Whew, earlier than last week, Tyler though to himself.
Luce was waiting for them outside of their door, "What class you got next?"
"Let's see, I've got dance with Ty," Nora answered, Tyler had rushed off to see his best friend, no not Mac, but Miles.
"Wait after Nora?" Lucy called as Nora grabbed Ty and ran off to their dance class.
"K!" She screamed back. We're going to be late again, she thought to herself.
They entered through the glass doors and Ty gave Nora a quick kiss on her check before sitting down and stretching. Nora flinched away, Tyler stared at her with confusion, but didn't push it.
"Okay class, I assume that you've stretched yourselves? Now, we're going to began with any easy…" Tyler tuned out and continued the rest of the class like a zombie.
When class was done, Nora came up to him and asked what was wrong.
"Nothing." He grumbled.
"No, Ty what is wrong?" She insisted.
"Why did you flinch, I thought you and I were together, cuz all I was trying to do was show affection." Tyler started to shout at her. They started to walk to Luce's dancing class.
"What are you talking about?" Nora was seriously confused.
"What do you think I'm talking 'bout?" Ty screamed at her, unfortunately Lucy walked out of the room when Tyler said this. She slowly walked back to the room she was just in, trying not to interrupt something.
"Look Ty… You're not going to be the only man in my life, and right now I think it would do us best if we just took a break." She said staring him down, Lucy gasped, Tyler and Nora turned to stare at Lucy.
"Um, just got done with class, I'm going to go see if Miles is done," she didn't want to get in the middle of this.
"We'll go with you," Ty said as an excuse not to continue this fight with Nora.
"No we won't, I need to talk to you Tyler." Nora said harshly, "Meet up with you later," she said more gently.
"Can we do this somewhere else?" Tyler asked, he didn't want to have a fight in the middle of a crowded hall way.
"Fine, you name it." Nora was not in a good mood, so Tyler just suggested the dancing room.
The walked briskly towards the dancing room, Tyler was not happy about this fight.
"So who's the new man in your life Nora, cuz obviously I'm not the only one!" Tyler shouted at her.
"There is a new guy, but since I'm not dating you anymore I don't have to tell you!" Nora screamed tears were brimming her eyes.
"Fine, at least tell me if there's a chance I'll be with you again. Cuz I can't live without you!" Ty said, looking at his jeans.
"Maybe Ty, I dunno for sure yet." Nora said bringing down the volume a little bit.
"Then I don't need this, I need you, but if you can't keep true to me, then I'm gone," Ty said and rushed out of the room just as Miles came in.
"What was that, you ok Nora?" Miles asked concerned.
"No, Miles nothing is ok. I want to see this other guy, Jake, but want to have Ty as a friend. But Ty just left me, I mean ran away!" Nora broke into tears, and Miles hugged her, wanting very badly to ask questions but knew this wasn't the time.
"It'll work itself out, you'll see." Miles said comfortingly.
Tyler ran all the way to Mac's house, "Mac open up!" Mac opened the door.
"Ty man! Why ain't you at school?"
"Why you ain't at school?" Tyler shot back the question.
"Oh we got the day off, what about you?"
"Man, Nora got some other guy in her life now, she don't need me, but I need her."
"Man, come in, I'm sorry." Mac, gave a man hug to Tyler.
"Thanks Mac." Tyler accepted the hug graciously.
"So, what happened with Nora?" Mac wasn't very good at small talk.
"Um sees I just gave her a little kiss, and she flinched! FLINCHED, man!" Tyler started to shout again.
"But I thought you 'n' were together."
"That's what I thought!"
"Then what?"
"I asked her why, and she acts like she don't know what I'm talking 'bout."
"Ouch, what else?" Mac needed entertainment, and here it was.
"Then she said that I ain't always gonna be her man, and she's gonna have other men in her life, and she would like to take this opportunity for a break!"
"Say what?!" Mac was surprised, he had gotten used to Tyler always being with Nora, but now Nora didn't want him, something was going on.
"And then I came here." Tyler finished up quietly.
"Ty…" Mac didn't know what to say to this, "I'm sorry, you- she don't derserve you."
"Thanks, man." Tyler had needed support from Mac, and he got it.
"I just turned on the GameCube," Mac said, picking up a controller and handing one to Tyler.
"Yeah, what game?"
Next Day
Tyler got out of bed before his alarm, showered, at and walked to school. When he got there Nora was there, but she wasn't waiting for him. She was walking with her arm around another guy's neck.
"Hey Nora!" Tyler called hoping that yesterday was a dream.
She didn't answer, but she kissed the guy she was hanging on, and he kissed her right back. Just as Tyler was about to break up the scene with her and that other guy the homeroom bell rung.
"Nora, what is going on?" He asked shocked.
"Oh, yeah, that's Jake, my new boyfriend."
"Whoa, Nora we just broke up," he couldn't believe that he had actually agreed with her that they were done.
"Yeah, so? Your point?"
"What he got, that I don't?"
"He is a man. He won't kiss me in the middle of the hall, unlike you."
"Man, I thought that you liked that! And I saw you sucking his lips off two minutes before the bell!"
"Tyler, I did no such thing." Nora spat.
"Nora and Tyler if you are going to continue talking I do suggest that you do it in Director Gordon's office." Their teacher hissed.
"Sorry," they echoed in unison.
The day dragged on for Tyler, all he saw was Nora walking to and from class with Jake, and kissing. This was driving him insane. Finally he saw Nora, alone, and confronted her.
"So exactly why did we break up, cuz I'm a little confused," Tyler pleaded.
"Oh, well, um, frankly Ty, you were…" Nora couldn't come up with an answer.
"Cuz I was, what?" Tyler was really angered now.
"I needed something new, I knew who you were, forward, backward, sideways, in, out every way you could think of. I needed someone new, a new flavor." Nora said hoping to make Tyler understand.
"I get it." Tyler nodded his head.
Nora went to catch up with Jake, but Jake had his arms around the waist of two girls. "Hey, Jake, um, who are these?"
"Oh, one is my girlfriend, and the other is the girl I cheat on with my girlfriend. Why?" He answered confidently.
"Well, I thought you and I were, you know, boyfriend girlfriend," She answered, she felt small, and tiny, insignificant, no reason to live because the guy she just left Ty for, was a complete and total a) jerk and b)idiot.
"Oh no, you were the girl I cheated on with the cheater," He replied obliviously that he seemed to be crushing her heart.
"You three timer! I can't believe you, and to think that I left the greatest man alive for you!" She slapped him, and kicked him in the groins; she left him withering in pain as his two girls left for two other boys.
"Hey, Ty wait up!" She yelled after Ty who was walking to the cafertia.
"Why so you can tell me how cute the new guy is?" He asked sneering.
"No, you were right he is a jerk. And you are the only man in my life now," She begged Tyler to see that she was telling the truth.
"Last chance," he said as he opened up his arm to her.
