What's With Her?

I sit on the moon staring back at my planet. I can't believe it! I just can't believe it. I look away from the green and the blue and look back out in to the dark space. He's been so different since our last assignment. He's got more confidence. But that's not it. I lean back allowing me to lie down on the dusty gray surface. I close my eyes trying to stop my tears from flowing. He's starting to get noticed by girls now. And he likes it.

"Don't you think that Kit Rodriguez is so unbelievably cute?" some girl asked me. I looked at her harshly.

"Whatever. He's like a brother to me." I lied. I know I'm not supposed to lie, but I don't want this girl who I don't know, to know how I feel towards him, when he doesn't even know.

"So, is he taken?"

"Not that I know of." I wanted to say 'yes he's mine' but I didn't. The girl just smiles at me and walks over to Kit. Kit's reaction was so cute. His eyes got so wide when this girl, who never spoke a single word to him, or me for that matter, was actually talking to him. I couldn't hear what they were saying but by the look on Kit's face I knew. The girl screeched and hugged him when Kit nodded his head. He smiled. He's never smiled like that before, with me. We haven't really talked since.

Now, here I am sitting at our place, thinking back at the times I could have told him how I feel. It's too late now. He has a girlfriend. I never thought that something like a girl could come between us. It's always been me and Kit. I'm afraid that if Kit becomes more serious with this girl, then we, as partners, aren't going to be 'partners' anymore! Oh how horrible would that be. I can't do a complex wizardry without him. I can't even go through a single assignment without knowing he will be there. Worst of all, I can't hear what he's thinking anymore. That used to be one thing that kept us connected.

My tears can't be stopped anymore, they start to stream down my face as I sit up to look back at the beautiful Earth. All the things we've done together. All the things we've endured and faced. It seems like he doesn't even care. All of the sudden I hear a BANG! and Kit appears, not alone, but with her. This is supposed to be our place. Not Kit, his girlfriend and mine's. Just Kit and me. I shoot a look over to Kit who has his girlfriend blindfolded. She is smiling and waiting to see where he has taken her. He looks at me and grins. What is he thinking taking her here? I shake my head to show him how upset I am with him and said three words that brought me back to my home.

Dairine is sitting on the couch with her computer/manual, Spot, on her lap. She looks up at me seeing my tears as I wipe them away and sit on the couch beside her. I do not say a word to her as I turn on the TV.

"Neets?"

"I don't want to talk about it Dari." I said harshly. I hate being mean to my sister, especially when it's not even her fault.

"Nita come on! You have been like this for the past two days. Dad is starting to get worried." Dairine looks concerned. What do you expect, my best friend left me for a girl. I stare at her for a few minutes letting the TV take up the silence.

"Kit has a girlfriend Dairine and that's not the worst part. He brought her to our place! The one place that only me and Kit can go and he takes a stupid mortal to our place." Dairine stares at me, I know that sounded harsh but what else could I say?

"Oh Nita!" Dairine moved Spot, actually Spot moved himself, off of her lap and she gave me a massive hug. I let out my tears again as me and my sister hug.

"I thought he liked me back! I thought we were going to be together forever..."

"Nita, did you ever tell him how you felt?" I pulled away from Dairine when she asked me that even though she already knew the answer.

"Dairine, you know the answer to that! Of course I never told him! I didn't want to make our relationship as partners or even best friends to get weird. But I could have sworn there was something between us." I place my face in my hands crying just a little more. Dairine grabbed a tissue and handed it towards me.

"Nita, you should have known that something like this would have happened sooner or later if you never let him know."

"What are you saying Dari? Are you taking Kit's side?"

"I'm not taking anybody's side here Neets. I'm just trying to tell you the truth! I'm the only one you have right now so I don't think it's wise that you try to push me away. You're better off with someone then being alone, and you know that!" Dairine got up from the couch and walked in to the kitchen to grab some food. "Besides how do you think Kit felt when you were with Ronan?"

"I was never with Ronan! We just kissed once and that was it." Ronan! I can't believe she would bring that up. I know Kit was a little jealous when I told him. Dairine walks back in with two apples in her hands. She tossed one to me and she sits back down on the couch next to me. But he wasn't upset. At least that I know of. "Why did you ask that? Do you know something that I don't?"

Dairine shook her head, "Nita didn't you see how Kit would always look sad whenever you and Ronan were talking to each other at our last assignment? The way you sort of kind of flirted with him?"

"I was not flirting with him Dari and you know that! I don't like him that way. Anyway that's not my problem right now. Kit is so distant from me now, and I don't even know how to take it." I stare back at the TV and Dairine just lets the subject go. I can tell she wanted to say more.

Dad came home seeing me and Dairine sitting on the couch and he sighs. "Hey girls!"

"Hey." Dairine and I said in unison. I don't even look up at my dad, it's too hard. I can tell he has been worrying about me just by looking at him. His face has gotten more droopy since we've gotten back from our assignment.

"Did you girls already eat?"

"No." Dairine replies. "We just had an apple." My dad nods and he walks in to the kitchen. I can hear him take out some pans and start the stove. I can see Dairine look at me out of the corner of my eye. Just say something already!

"What?"

"You can't be like that forever. You are just going to have to accept the fact that Kit is taken and you were just too late." That sounded a little harsh, but I understand what she was trying to say.

I see him every day at school. Mr. Millman made sure that Kit and I were in the same classes in case we had an emergency. I love having a guidance counselor that knows that wizards exist and is very understanding about our situation. I don't think he would be able to change my classes now, since it is almost the end of the year.

Kit, what about us? Just then a BANG! comes from the backyard and a Hispanic boy walks through the back door with tears in his eyes.

Nita, she's afraid of me. She hates me.

A/N: There's more coming!! Do you like it? Hate it? Tell me.. R&R no flames please!!!
