Kori walked into class with Richard and took a seat.

"Your late!" yelled the teacher

"I'm sorry I… had to get my books" Kori thought up quickly

"What's your excuse" The teacher snapped at Richard, Kate and Becky began to giggle

"Uhhh…" he couldn't think of a good excuse

"Detention tomorrow!" he yelled, he had something against Richard since the 1st day of school

"But…" he tried to argue but was stopped by a death glare from the teacher

"If only my stupid sister was could go too" Becky said giggling with Kate

Kori was about to kill her sister but retained herself on how emberessing it would be to attack her.

……………………………………………………………………….

Kori got up from her class and woke up Richard who was half asleep on his desk

"Richard stop playing and get up" Kori said pulling him from the chair she was pretty strong

"Bye Kori" he shouted waving and walking to his next class, Kori walked to Science which was even more boring than math, the worst part is the teacher put her next to Xavier and wouldn't move her!

"Kori wait up" Jenny shouted running to Kori with Jeff next to her

"O you finally made it to school" Kori teased her, she would most of the time skip 1st period and hang out with Jeff

"Hey school starts too early!" Jeff yelled making Kori roll her eyes

They entered class and she saw Xavier put a note on her desk she got to it and starred at him but he looked away quick

Kori please meet me after school I need to apologize for my earlier behavior

-Xavier

Kori almost burst into laughter but could see Xavier's cheeks blushing, and decided to see where this was going

……………………………………………………………..

Kori walked out of class this was the first time Xavier hadn't tried to hit on her

"So umm Kori I'll see you after school?" He said shyly walking to Kori

"Umm… Ya" Kori finally said it, this was the first time she wasn't screaming at him for being a pervert, and he was actually looking at her face not somewhere else…

Xavier walked away with a smile, was he serious about this or was he gonna make Kori feel humiliated for falling for it she couldn't get it out of her mind until she finally focused when she could hear Victor calling for her.

"Hey Kori get over here and have some lunch" Victor said waving from the table where Roy, Terra, Rachel, Garfield, Jennifer, Jeff, and Karen sat.

Kori walked over and hit into Richard on the way everyone in the table began to giggle as they knew they had some sort of connection.

Xavier went with envy as he sat with Sam and the rest of his friends and couldn't take his eyes off Kori blushing, Why doesn't she blush when I talk to her?

He wanted to go beat Richard up but decided that would come later just one of these days…

Kori sat down and picked at her salad and took a sip of sprite, Victor kept thanking his mom for the foot long hotdog, Garfield just went in disgust he was a vegetarian and was happy his new Girlfriend only ate salads with chips.

They both took a seat and ate their lunches, every once in a while Kori would glance over to Xavier

The bell rang and Kori, Rachel, Terra, Richard and Garfield went to Gym, the rest were in different classes

They were climbing the rope Terra was half way up when Rachel spotted Kori looking at Xavier

"Umm.. Kori?"

"Ya?"

"Why do you keep looking over to Xavier?" she questioned

"I'm not!" she snapped

"Okay Kori it's your turn" Terra shouted heading to the girl's locker room

The only girls that were left were Kori and Rachel, and the only boys that were left were Xavier, Garfield, and Richard

Kori was almost all the way up when Rachel just had to ask

"You don't like him do you?" Rachel looked up where Kori went pale

Do I like him, when he's decent like today he's actually likeable…NO! I like Richard I can't like him…I do like him…!

Kori fell to the last thought I do like him she herd many people screaming her name as she fell to a mattress that wasn't that soft

Everyone that was left in the gym crowded around her

"Kori!" Xavier shook her

"Stop shaking her!" Richard yelled, he defiantly didn't want him touching her

"Is she going to be okay?" Garfield questioned looking to Rachel for comfort

"She'll be fine, we just need to take her to the nurse"

"I'll take her!" Xavier and Richard shouted at the same time

"It's okay I'm fine with taking her!" Xavier shouted

"No way, I'm her friend so I'll take her!"

"Why don't you both take her?" Garfield suggested, Rachel smacked her hand against her forehead knowing what will happen when there together

Richard and Xavier both looked at her, and looked at each other they knew not one of them would give up

"Fine" Richard mumbled crossing his arms

Xavier picked her up bridal style and Richard was about to refuse but Rachel grabbed his arm.

"Let it go" she whispered, He decided he would listen to her but he still felt like he wanted to smack him.

He followed Xavier and kept reminding himself not to kill him, for comfort he would look to Kori's face and relax and forget about Xavier

"What happened!" yelled the nurse running to Xavier who put her on a bed

Richard was quick enough to answer before Xavier "She fell from the rope in gym"

"I told that coach to get rid of those ropes, too many people are getting injured from it" she shouted feeling Kori's head

"All we can do is wait for her to wake up, you two can go now" Richard went out with Xavier and when he made sure he went to his class he ran back to the nurse's office

"Didn't I tell you to go back to class?" the nurse questioned putting a cold wipe on Kori's head

"Please let me stay with her, Please" The nurse was about to say 'No' but when she saw him take a seat next to her and grab her hand she went quiet and went back to her work

After 10 minutes of Richard staying there he finally saw Kori's eyes open and look around

"Kori your awake!" He said grabbing her into a hug

"Where am I?" she asked rubbing the back of her head

"Your in the nurses office, you fell from the rope"

Her eyes widened at the thoughts she just had during that time

"What happened why'd you fall?"

"Um… I'm afraid… of heights" she said stuttering

His eyes narrowed knowing she wasn't afraid of heights

"Are you sure?"

"Yes I'm sure!" she snapped

"Okay, okay" he said getting a little frightened at the way she responded

"What time is it?"

"2:58" he said starring at his watch

"What!… Umm I need to get home at exactly 3" she lied remembering Xavier.

"Do you need a ride home?"

"No, no I'm fine"

"Okay well I guess I'll see you tomorrow?"

"Of course" Kori said getting out of bed and running outside to see Xavier standing there (it was an early dismissal that day 2:30)

"I didn't think you'd show up, how are you feeling?"

"better"

"So about that note?" Kori questioned

"O that…" his eyes narrowed and an evil grin came

"What?"

"O nothing"

"soo.. are you gonna apologize?"

"I don't think so"

"What are you talking about?"

"You see Kori you remember Sam right, well if you don't become my Girlfriend, he has a gun and he'll kill Richard!"

"Your lieing!" she shouted backing up until she hit someone and fell to the ground

She looked around and saw Sam with a gun and went wide eyed

"Soo Kori what will it be?" Xavier questioned

"Don't hurt him…I'll be your girl- girl-"

"what's that you'll be my what?" his smile grew

"Girlfriend" she mumbled

"Okay well first of all we need to make it official"

"wha-" but before she could finish he grabbed her up and held her waist tight and pushed her into a kiss, she tried to pull away but his grip was too tight

Sam laughed and walked away. But behind the fence was someone who was horrified at what he saw, he didn't hears or see any of the deal, but only the last part… the kiss
