A/N WARNING: LONG author note at the end.

In Science Class

Kori walked in looking mad.

"Hey Kori." Her best friend, Rachel Roth greeted her.

"Hey Rae." Kori sat down. She took out her notebook and started taking
notes.

"Uh-Oh, your taking notes what's wrong?"

Kori sighs and turns around to face Rachel." Barbra is what's wrong.
Every time Richard and I get some alone time she comes and interrupts us."
She turned back to her notes.

"Kori don't let her get to you." Rachel grabbed Kori's arm and turns
her around. "He's in love with, you don't have to worry about
anything."

"Rae I know, but I lost him once I don't want to lose him again."

Rachel opened her mouth to say something when the bell rang.

"Ok class let's be..." She got interrupted when Barbara and Richard ran
into the classroom.

"Well, Well, Well, Mr.Grayson, Miss. Gordon, why are you guys late for my
class?" Richard looked at Barbara, then Mrs. Baker, and then to Kori.

"Well we um-we were uh."

"There's no need to explain Mr.Grayson just take your seat and don't
be late for my class again. That goes for you too Miss. Gordon."

"Yes Ma'am." They both said at the same time. Richard took his seat
next to Kori. Kori was giving him the cold shoulder. Richard noticed immediately and started to write something .

Mrs. Baker took role and began class. In the middle of class Richard passed
Kori a note.

Kori opened the note and read, "Kori I'm sorry I didn't mean what I
said." She looked over at him. He looked back at her and she saw his eyes.
They showed the emotions he was feeling-love, sorrow, and fear. "What could he
be afraid of," Kori thought. She wrote him a message and passed it back to him
when the teacher's back was to them.

Richard carefully opened the note and read, "Richard you do this all the timeeither your going to watch what you say or I'm going to have to end this
relationship." His head shot up and looked at her with regret in his eyes
and wrote back. "No! I'll try I promise just don't leave me." He passed
the back to Kori.

She read his note and responded,"Ok, but you better wise up and quick!"

He read the note and looked at her and mouthed "Ok."

After Class

Kori and Rae were walking to lunch when somebody grabbed Kori from behind.
She jumped a little and turned around. She was relieved to see it was
Richard.

"Hey baby." He kissed her sweetly.

"Hey Richard."

"Look I was wondering could you meet me at memorial park."

"Yeah sure." He smiled and ran down the hall. Kori smiled to herself. She
turned around to see Rachel smirking at her. "What?"

"You know what, I don't normally say this but you guys are too cute. If
you tell anybody about this I will harm you, badly."

Kori laughed. Rachel was always the one who didn't shown any PDA. Her
boyfriend, Garfield Logan often complained, but she would give him that look
and he knew better. " I won't I promise."

Kori was walking down the hall when she heard voices. She knew eavesdropping
was wrong but she had to hear what they were talking about.

Kori's P.O.V

"What do you want me to tell her?" Richard said as he ran his fingers
through his hair.

"I don't know but you promised." God her whiny voice is annoying. She
is so annoying.

"I know, I know but me and Kori already had plans." That's right
Richard, whatever she wants we already have plans.
"But Dick you promised
and this is my first week here, please."

Oh no she didn't do the puppy dog eyes.

"Ok Babs I'll find a way."

No, No, No Richard please don't do this! If things couldn't get worsehe hugs her. With tears in my eyes I turn and walk away, when somebody grabs
me from behind, "AH!!"

A/N Guys I am so sorry, but things have been so hectic around here lately. In case you didn't know Kori's thoughts were in Italics. I will be deleting my other story and will be starting over. I have some good news I finally have an editor Josie. She also has a story out called Family Feud, it's a Day's Of Our Lives story and the couple is Shawn and Mimi so please go check her story out and review. I want to wish you all a very MERRY CHRISTMAS(sorry it's late but hey it's never too late to spread holiday cheer right.) Hopefully I can get the next chapter to Josie and she can return so I can put it up on New Years, if not I will have it out before I go back to school on January 7, 2008. I would also like to thank Berry Drops for reviewing the first and the second chapter. I would also like to thank ThEnAmEsGiGi, cartoonfire, and Royalfire14.
