"Rachel, Xavier broke up with me," Kory said over the phone, her eyes red.

"What?! When? Why?" Rachel asked.

"Last night at Richard's party because he over heard Richard telling me he loved me, but to make it better then Richard kissed me," Kory explained.

"He did what?!" Rachel yelled, now sounding angry.

"So I didn't have a ride home since Xavier broke up with me so this guy I met, Allen Wavery, had to give me a ride home. He was nice and kinda helped me cope with the pain both Xavier and Richard gave me," Kory said, sighing.

"So Xavier just broke up with you and didn't even give you a chance to explain what happened?" Rachel asked.

"He was really hurt Rae, I think he seriously loved me…," Kory said, trailing off.

"Well then you two need to make up! You guys were a cute couple, even though I'm not that sure about Xavier. I want you to be happy Kor, I really do," Rachel said.

"Thanks, but I don't know if he'll even talk to me. Last night, when I looked in his eyes…it was so painful and almost frightening at the same time. I never thought anyone could feel the way it looked he did," Kory said and Rachel let out a sad sigh.

"Maybe its best you go tomorrow to talk to him and don't take no for an answer. He needs to know your side of the story, not just what he saw," Rachel said.

"Alright, I'll talk to you later then," Kory said before they exchanged their good byes and hung up.

"Maybe I should just go today instead… tomorrow seems so far away," Kory thought to herself, looking at the clock which read '2:34 pm'. Kory then looked at her outfit and decided she would go later today, but first take a shower. So Kory got into the shower and 20 minutes later she came out of the bathroom in a towel.

Kory then dried off her body before putting on her clothes. (Simples light purple tang top and jean shorts) After that, she brushed her hair only to put it up in a messy bun. Pulling on a pair of white flip flops, Kory grabbed her car keys, sunglasses, and purse before driving towards Xavier's home.

-----------------------------

"Xavier?" Kory asked, knocking on his door.

"What do you want?" Xavier asked, opening his door.

"All I want to do is talk," Kory said and Xavier stepped back from the doorway so she could enter.

"Well, start talking," he said, sitting down on his couch.

"You don't have to say it like that," Kory spoke in a soft voice.

"Just say what you have to say and then leave," Xavier said, not making eye contact with her.

"I want you to know my side of the story. When you came up for air you saw only part of what happened," Kory said.

"Oh, so you two did more than just kiss?" Xavier asked bitterly.

"Why do you have to be so god damned stubborn?! Why would I cheat on you with Richard?!" Kory yelled, becoming very frustrated.

"I saw all I needed to see!" Xavier yelled, standing up as well.

"No you didn't! Richard told me he loved me! That doesn't mean I love him back! When I went underwater, I just grabbed someone! I didn't mean for it to be him! I was going to go back for you, but Richard stopped me! Xavier why would I want to hurt you?" Kory asked, shaking slightly.

"I don't know Kory, why would you?" Xavier asked.

"Xavier, you've made me laugh again in some of the worst situations! Why would I want to hurt someone I love?" Kory asked and Xavier looked shocked.

"Kory, I love you too, but I just can't stop the thought of you still loving Richard from coming into my mind and taking control of my judgment. Last night, that little thought came to life and I don't know… it just took over," Xavier said, sitting back down.

"Xavier, I have always felt something for Richard, whether it be hate… or love, but what I feel for you," Kory said, stopping her sentence.

"I will never forget," she finally finished, tears rolling out of her emerald eyes.

"Kory, I just don't think," Xavier started, but he found himself at a loss of words.

"I understand… bye Xavier," Kory said before running out his door and towards her car. Once inside her car, Kory broke down and just let herself go. She sobbed into her car wheel and banged her head against it causing the horn to honk and her to jump.

"Kory, you okay?" Xavier asked, looking at her through the open door.

"Yeah," she lied, wiping her eyes.

"You sure? You look pretty shaken up," Xavier said.

"What do you think Xavier?! I feel like my life is become a steaming pile of shit because I fell for Richard Grayson! You know what? It's probably just because I'm still a fucking virgin! If I had just slept around with you, Richard, maybe even Roy then I would be happy right?!" Kory yelled, clenching the wheel like her life depended on it.

"Kory, I've never wanted you to feel the pressure of giving yourself up because you think it will hold a relationship together," Xavier said, now sitting in the passenger seat.

"Well I do feel that way! I feel like I should just give myself away and that way it will make everything better!" Kory yelled, crying her heart out.

"It won't Kory," Xavier said.

"How do you know? My sister says it's great, Rachel and Gar are loving it, and Richard broke up with me because of it! Why fucking not?!" Kory screamed.

"I'm not the right person to be telling you this," Xavier said, looking at the sidewalk.

"How should I ask? My mom? She'll tell me to stay a virgin forever!" Kory yelled.

"Well not me because my dick is telling me that you should just get over with it and that I'm here for you when you want to, but my heart is bigger. Kory, you need some time, alone, to get your head on straight," Xavier said.

"You're right. I'm just so stressed out with the drama that I've gone completely insane. Thanks Xavier, if you hadn't talked some sense into me I might have fucked you right here in my car… or on the sidewalk… or I might've made it to your room," Kory said, thinking.

"Why did I tell you not to again?" Xavier asked and Kory giggled.

"Thanks again Xavier," she said before giving him a hug and kiss on the cheek.

"I'll see you around," Kory said before driving off and back to her house.

"It will pay off in the long run," Xavier mumbled to himself before returning to his home to take a shower… a cold shower.

Sorry that chapter wasn't that exciting, but bigger and better things will be coming up. I don't know if I'll make it in this story or in other sequels to this, but Kory will have sex with someone! (Most likely Richard if I can aim it that way) So thanks for all the wonderful reviews!
