A/N: So I got like 10 chapters done already for this story, but I am still trying to come up with a nice ending. You guys don't have to worry about the ending now though because that's nowhere near soon, but I plan for the ending to follow the song My Black Dahlia by Hollywood Undead…if that's some kind of spoiler lol, oops :p
Anyway, enjoy this crazy chapter. I also must say there is really strong language in this chapter.
The blue haired beauty stopped in front of her locker as she quickly inserted the combination to her lock and opened it along with her locker. She replaced the books she had in her hands along with a Spanish lll book and a binder. She closed her locker briefly before flinching in surprise after spotting Giselle beside her. Giselle stared at her for a bit and then smiled deviously, chuckling at her reaction. "Hello Dawn,"
"Hi Giselle," Dawn smiled partially as she began walking off, listening as Giselle walked beside her.
"So what are you doing later?" Giselle asked, her heels clacking along the floor as she walked beside the blue haired girl.
"Probably staying after school to practice dancing." Dawn mumbled.
"What for?"
"An audition I have a month from now." Dawn answered, pulling her books closer to her chest.
"Oh," Giselle mumbled, continuing to walk beside the girl.
Dawn kept her eyes on the hall. "So how's everything with you and Ash?" She heard Giselle ask her.
"Everything's fine,"
"Do you like him?"
"Ash?" Dawn raised her eyebrow. "We're just friends."
Giselle scoffed, as if to believe otherwise. Dawn looked at Giselle after realizing that Giselle had been assuming that she had been wrong. "You are a terrible liar," Dawn heard her say from under her breath.
Dawn stopped in her tracks as she heard Giselle say that and Giselle just looked at her, smiling innocently at her and then placed her hand upon her hip. "I'm dating Paul." Dawn said.
"Yeah, but deep down inside you want Ash more." The brunette told her. Dawn furrowed her eyebrows together quickly.
"Excuse me?" Dawn blurted out.
"Come on, stop trying to deny the truth. Ash is insanely hot, and plus he's the captain of the varsity basketball team." Giselle stood in front of her, hardening her eyes on the girl slightly. "I wouldn't blame you for having feelings for the guy."
"I don't," Dawn denied. "Besides, don't you like him? I think it's a little weird how you assume that I even look at him that way when I have a boyfriend."
"Yeah, a boyfriend whom you said doesn't treat you right." Giselle shot back.
Dawn stood quiet, and Giselle shook her head. "You know, I'm dying to know what is it about Ash who seems to take all your attention away from Paul. He must know how to treat a girl then,"
Dawn stared at Giselle for the longest moment possible and sucked her teeth before walking away.
Giselle rolled her eyes, "You're so dramatic," she said under her breath as she followed behind her.
"It would do us both a favor if you stop lying and admit that you not only have feelings for your boyfriend, Paul, but you also have feelings for Ash."
Dawn scoffed, "Yeah, keep thinking that."
"What, you can't accept the truth?"
Dawn stopped in her tracks again and turned to face the girl before her. She glared at her. "I don't know who the hell you think you are, but you really need to get off my back."
"Why? Because you know that I'm right?"
"No, you're wrong. Ash is just my friend, and that is all. Paul is my boyfriend, he's the only guy I have feelings for. I would never hurt him that way."
Giselle chuckled. "As if,"
Dawn raised her eyebrow.
"If I could put a lie detector test on you, there would be a whole nother story." Giselle told her.
"You wish," Dawn muttered.
"You're no good for Paul." Giselle argued, a serious look on her face now.
"And you're no good for Ash." Dawn shot back, a serious look on her face too.
The brunette smiled slightly at that comment and took a small step toward her, her face really close to Dawn's. "You may be right about that, but at least… I know how to play the game. Unlike you, you make it so obvious that you have feelings for Ash. Paul isn't stupid, you know."
With that being said, Giselle walked off without listening to what else Dawn had to say.
Giselle personally wanted to find out about Ash herself, and she felt that Paul might've been right about Dawn's feelings. After hanging out with Ash for just one day, she couldn't find not one thing Dawn might like about Ash. He seemed really boring to her and she also didn't like the fact that he had rejected sex from her. What guy does that?
Giselle might have been judging him a bit too early though. She had to find out more about him for herself.
Giselle stopped in front of the weight room's large window and took a glance inside. Usually when she walks around the city, she usually stops at all the clothing stores to go shopping, but instead she wanted to see what Ash was up to. After learning about his daily routines from some of his friends, she knew he would be there on a Friday. And it was currently Friday, so she had to see him.
Giselle squinted her eyes to take a brief look inside the weight room and instantly saw Ash laying on his back shirtless while lifting what seemed to be a really heavy weight, with Gary beside him, holding a rag on his head.
Ash looked insanely hot lifting weights and he had a nice muscular body shape. Giselle couldn't help but stare at his body and at him.
Ash continued to lift those weights, letting out a hard breath of air every time he lifted the weight up. Gary was wiping the back of his neck with a rag. "So how are things going with you and that girl?"
The raven-haired teen continued to lift the weight before answering his best friend's question. "Not too good."
"How come?" Gary raised his eyebrow, still wiping off the sweat he had forming on his face. He was working out just as hard as Ash.
Giselle had no idea what they were talking about inside because the windows were sound proof. She bit down on her bottom lip and walked toward the corner end of the window, so if she were spotted, she can instantly hide.
She then reverted her attention back onto the two guys, her attention more focused on Ash.
Ash placed the weight above his head and set it down on the rack. Gary watched as his friend began to sit up, letting out heavy breaths. Ash grabbed his rag and began to wipe off sweat that was forming on his head as well.
"She's really confusing. I've never met a girl like her," He began to move the rag toward his neck. "I have to figure her out."
Ash sighed as he wiped the back of his neck, his eyes slowly narrowing towards the large window and he instantly spotted Giselle standing outside of it and looking right at him.
Giselle's eyes instantly widened when she saw him looking right at her. She instantly turned her back toward the window and quickly moved away from the window, resting her back against a brick red wall.
"Hmm," Gary looked at Ash and saw that Ash was looking out the window for a bit and he looked at the window too, wondering what Ash was looking at.
"What are you looking at?" Gary asked, confused of what he had been staring at.
Ash got up on his feet and looked at the window for a little while longer before looking over at Gary. "… Nothing. I thought I saw something." Ash nodded his head as he grabbed his water bottle and walked passed Gary.
Giselle let out a shaky breath and pushed her body off of the brick wall, beginning to walk down the sidewalk where a lot of people were walking on.
She didn't know why she was so nervous that he had spotted her, but she couldn't deny the fact that she desperately wanted to see him working out and that was one amazing sight.
The sun began to go down and the moon and the stars soon covered the sky, making the outside dark. The city's street lights and of course the cities lights made the night look beautiful. It was most definitely the city of dreams and also the city that never sleeps.
Paul contemplated in his car, thinking of what he should do. Should he take Drew's advice or should he not?
Paul sighed, looking over at Dawn's window once more, still seeing her light on, but no shadow of her. The advice Drew gave him seemed like a tough one, but then again Paul did wonder if she truly loves him. From what he knows, girl's usually give their virginity to the person they love and trust, not to just anybody and if Dawn gave that to him then that would be just enough evidence to prove that he was just overthinking things about Ash and that she really does love him. But as of right now, he had no idea how she feels about him.
Paul sighed as he finally made a decision, turning off his car and getting out of the car.
Fuck it, he was going to find out how she really feels about him and nothing was stopping him.
He walked towards the side of the house and searched for a ladder before placing it against Dawn's window sill. He always had the ladder hidden in between the bushes that was leaning against the side of the house, so her mother had never really noticed it there. And he only came to her house on rare occasions, mainly because he always snuck inside her house or since he knows how strict her mother can be he rarely shows up. Johanna is a strict mother, as far as he remembers.
As Paul climbed up the ladder, he was quick to climb quietly and to not make any noise. As he reached the top, he saw Dawn lying down on her bed with her hair messily down running past her shoulders. She was wearing a sapphire blue tank top along with peach colored shorts.
Paul didn't want to disturb her from looking at whatever she was looking at in her phone, but then again he was not about to be standing on a ladder especially after climbing all the way to the top. He lifted his fist and knocked on her window, quickly catching her turning her eyes from her phone to the window.
Paul watched as she stared at him, noticing that she had a surprised look on her face as she got up and walked over to him. He let out a breath of air as she lifted the window up, placing her hands against the window sill. "Paul, what are you doing here?"
"I wanted to see you." Paul answered, smiling as he said this before leaning in to kiss her.
Dawn acknowledged the kiss before pulling away and helped Paul get inside her room. As soon as he got in, she closed the window and then turned to him.
"I was just looking at a lot of auditions that dancers did for the Veilstone Dance University. I'm trying to see what they got going so that way when I have my audition, I'll do great." She said.
Paul licked his lips. "You already got all your dancing down packed, no need to stress over it." He started walking over to her from behind, now taking advantage of the advice Drew gave him.
Dawn's breathing hitched as soon as she felt Paul's muscular body pressing against her back, and his hands resting on each side of her arms as he placed wet kisses along her bare shoulders. His hands started gliding slowly down her arms as he grabbed a hold of her hands into his and started trailing kisses from her shoulders to her neck. Dawn's eyes soon fell closed and she let out a small breath of air.
Paul's hands soon fell to the pit of her legs as he hoisted her up and put her on top of her bed. Dawn looked up at him as he hovered over her.
Paul placed his lips against hers as Dawn let her hands fall on his shoulders, breathing against his lips. He removed his mouth from hers and put his hand up her shirt, quickly grabbing a hold of her right breast. Dawn moaned in response but she quickly pushed him back aggressively as his hand soon retreated from her breast and his body leaving hers as he now sat up. Paul raised his eyebrow at the surprising action.
"Paul," she said in surprise.
"Sorry." He said bluntly.
Dawn slowly sat up on the bed too, her hair falling to her back. "I'm sorry too." She frowned. Dawn stared at him in surprise. "It's just... I'm not ready yet."
Paul stared at her for a little while longer before speaking. "What?"
Dawn sighed. "You were taking things a little too fast. I'm not ready Paul."
"Too fast?" He raised his eyebrow. Paul removed his eyes from her. Of course, she rejected him. She doesn't want to lose it to him, she wants to lose it to Ash. "You know what, fuck that, I'm not sorry." He said angrily, moving his eyes back to her. "What are you afraid of? I give you all the love and everything you've ever wanted and you don't even want to have sex with me?"
Dawn blinked, shocked at Paul's sudden outburst. Her emotion quickly reflected off of his. "Sex doesn't define our relationship Paul."
"I never said it did." Paul spat. "I always respected your desires."
"Then why are you so upset about me saying that I'm not ready?" She said, now becoming upset.
"Because you've known me for over a year. Never have I tried to get you to do something you didn't want to do." He argued.
"I already told you my reasons." She shouted, careful not to be so loud so that her mother wouldn't walk into her room.
"What, do you not trust me? You told me you loved me Dawn." Paul stood up as he said this and turned to face her, anger in his face.
"I do, Paul." She said, her anger slowly subsiding.
"Then what's wrong?" He shouted, waiting for an answer from her.
Dawn stared at him for what seemed like the longest period of time before speaking. "Because you've never said the words back."
Paul stared at her, at a loss for words.
She pulled a strand of hair behind her ear and licked her lips. "… You probably do love me, but lately it seems like you don't. And because of that, I don't… I don't trust you to have that part of me."
After listening to that last part of the sentence, Paul did not know what to say after that. Those words simply hit him in the heart and it sure did hurt like hell.
Paul just simply nodded his head and turned around without saying bye or anything. He lifted her window up and began to climb down the ladder.
He was right. She didn't love him like the way he did. Yeah, he never said the words back, but he always showed it through his actions. When she said the words, it was rarely shown by her actions but mostly with words.
Wow, so she doesn't trust me…
Giselle plopped down on the couch as she grabbed a bowl of chocolate covered dipped strawberries and placed one inside her mouth before chewing. Giselle made sure to turn her music up loud.
"Ahhhhhhhh. Ahhhhhhhhh. Peleamos, nos arreglamos. Nos mantenemos en esa pero nos amamos ay vamos."
Paul walked into his living room and made a hard look when he saw Giselle moving her head with the music, her eyes closed and eating strawberries at the same time. He rolled his eyes though, not really caring about her at the moment.
Giselle looked over at Paul who looked angry with the world and she smirked, getting up on her feet as she walked over to him. "So why are you so mad?" She made a puppy face and then laughed and took another bite of her strawberry.
Paul ignored her as he fixed himself a glass of alcohol or two. Giselle watched as she placed the finishing part of her strawberry into her mouth and left the tree part on the counter. She placed her hands on each side of the counter and hoisted herself up onto the counter, grabbing her bowl of strawberries into her lap.
"Come on, Mr. Grumpy." Giselle smiled, joking around. "What's wrong?"
"Dawn," he mumbled, chugging down a whole lot of alcohol.
Giselle watched him as she grabbed another strawberry and shoved it inside of her mouth. "What, you still think she's got feelings for Ash?" She said with a mouthful.
"That's exactly the point." Paul groaned, continuing to chug down a lot of alcohol.
"You sure are drinking a lot of alcohol." She noticed after swallowing her strawberry, dropping the tree part into the bowl. "What happened tonight?"
"I tried to have sex with her, but she rejected me." He shook his head as he said this, again drinking more of the Bacardi bottle.
Giselle laughed lightly. "Well why? Don't you guys have sex like plenty of times?"
"Not exactly." He turned around as he grabbed one of the strawberries in her bowl and placed one inside of his mouth.
The brunette placed the bowl on top of the counter. "That's strange. Is she like a virgin or something?"
"Yeah," he swallowed his strawberry, placing the tree part in the bowl and then grabbed his Bacardi bottle again as he took another large chug before removing the bottle from his lips. "She said she wasn't ready and I got upset, then she told me the reason was because I never told her I love her back so she doesn't trust me with her body." He said after pulling the drink away from his lips.
"Well that's understandable." Giselle said. "Whenever a female tells you she loves you, she expects for you to say it back rather than say nothing at all."
Paul's eyebrows furrowed together. "Yeah, but every time she says it, I don't believe it." He argued. "I don't feel it."
"Is it because you still think she's got feelings for Ash?"
"She doesn't have to say that she does, she shows it." Paul's fist clenched at his side. "And I just hate it because she looks at him like the way she used to look at me." It was true. Yeah, Dawn may have said those three words to him, but she obviously loves Ash and not him.
"But Ash doesn't look at her that way. He has a thing for me, remember?" The brunette told him, trying to calm him down a bit.
"Yeah, but that's beside the point. I can't get her to want me more than she wants him. It's like he's too fucking perfect, the kind of perfect she always dreamed of." He wanted to punch something, but he remained his cool.
"Perfect? I think not." Giselle rolled her eyes as she said this. Paul turned toward her, raising his eyebrow.
"Why you say that?" He asked, curious of why she seemed so annoyed with him.
"I tried to fuck him, but he didn't want to fuck, so I guess me and you are in the same scenario." Giselle groaned, still upset that Ash had turned her down.
Paul chuckled, closing his eyes. "Ash isn't exactly the type of guy that has sex. I thought you knew that."
Giselle folded her arms together. "Well with his popular persona going around in school, it's kind of really hard to tell."
Paul brought the Bacardi bottle up to his lips and chugged down more of the alcohol.
Giselle stared at him for a short while, soon realizing that they were both in the same situation. A small smirk formed into her lips as she hopped off the counter and walked up towards him. "Since we're both kind of in the same situation, why not we fuck? No strings attached." She smirked.
Paul swallowed the alcohol and pulled the Bacardi bottle away from his lips, looking down at her. "I'm not necessarily available."
"And you're not necessarily in a perfect relationship either, so what's the harm in having a little fun?" She stood in front of him, her eyebrow raised as she rested her hand against his chest.
Paul grabbed her hand from his chest and dropped it back to her side. Paul opened his mouth and said lowly and seductively, "You know what I think you want me to do to you? I think you want me to just let my tongue roll all over your body, along with my hands gripping your breasts while licking your pussy clean."
His face was so close to hers that they were close to kissing. Giselle felt a chill run down her spine. "Then why don't you?" She whispered, looking into his eyes.
Paul licked his lips slowly and smirked. "I'll let Ash handle that. In the meantime, you should stop hoeing around and maybe things with you and him would actually work out." He brought his drink back up to his lips and brushed past her, knowing that he just ticked her off, but he could really care less.
Giselle's mouth dropped open, surprised by what he had said. An annoyed look soon crossed over her face as she turned around to face him. "You're in no position to talk, because last time I checked you tried to fuck Dawn and she turned you down."
Paul chuckled. "The difference between my problem and your problem is that she's been my girlfriend for almost two years already and tonight was actually the first time I've tried to have sex with her. While you only known Ash for like a week and you're already trying to get inside his pants."
"Because I am not fond of getting to know someone before fucking." She rolled her eyes. "Dawn's a virgin, so I honestly don't understand why you're still with her if she's not already fucking you. Seems like a boring relationship to me."
Paul glared at her, placing his Bacardi bottle on the counter. "I don't need to fuck her to be in a relationship with her."
"All relationships eventually get intimate after a while." She told him, walking up to him as she gave him a hard look as well. "And since it's been almost two years already, don't you think that you guys should've done it by now? You say she rejected you tonight, right? Well… it seems to me that you're not the one that she wants to fuck and honestly your relationship with her has been a complete waste of space—"
Paul instantly grabbed her by the neck and slammed Giselle against the nearest wall by the counter, but she glared at him again, breathing hard at the sudden action. "What, you can't handle the truth?" She breathed, struggling to speak.
"And why should I listen to a whore like you?" He said spitefully, leaving his grip around her neck.
"Because I know how shady females can be." She mumbled, finding it hard to function. "Although," she gulped, feeling his grip tighten even harder as she tried to speak. "Don't forget that I'm the one who's helping you with your relationship."
Paul wanted to choke her even more but he soon let his hand free from her neck as she let out a hard heavy sigh of air. Paul watched as she tried to regain her breath, still upset with what she had just said to him. She looked up at him, giving him a hard look too as she closed her lips, now breathing from her nose. Paul's glare hardened on her before he turned away from her and grabbed his Bacardi bottle with him.
Giselle watched as he left elsewhere. "You could've killed me you know!"
"Who cares," he mumbled.
A/N: Giselle and Paul's friendship is really crazy as you can see lol.

Anyway, any thoughts about what would happen next? I'll put a small sneak peak of the upcoming chapters. (;
"I didn't come here to have small talk."
Dawn's eyebrows furrowed together. "But you're my boyfriend…"
"Am I?" Paul asked her.
…
"I dumped her."
"Why?"
"I need time to think."
…
"What's your problem?" Ash snapped, anger now falling on his face.
Paul matched his glare with Ash's, looking past Dawn and at Ash. "My problem is you."
"Paul stop!" Dawn shouted, trying to get Paul to look at her, but he ignored her and kept his attention on Ash.
"Oh yeah? Then why don't we settle this outside?" Ash suggested, twisting his hat to the back and balling up his fist.
"I'll be glad to." Paul snarled.
…
I think that's enough sneak peeks :P hopefully you guys can finally have an idea of what would happen next? Let me know! Review!
