Getting fresh and the set up

Tai's p.o.v

"Why the fuck did you tell people we had sex!?"

I normally don't yell at girls but Ivy was an exception. She wasn't a girl, she was a snake and this time she had gone too far; a vile creature bent on ruining my life. I hated her.

"Because we did!" Her voice quivered as she backed up against the wall. She panted and shrunk down as I got closer.

I narrowed my eyes and snickered. "You little liar." I approached, menacingly pointing my finger, causing her to cling to the wall. I could smell her musk perfume; she always caked it on thick.

"I'm not lying! Ask Jeff!" Her breath smelled like vodka. Predictable. She was always tipsy by lunch; having a drink by the football field with Jeff and the rest of the soccer team.

I slammed my fist against the wall, maybe a little too close to her face; I could have grazed her cheek give a centimeter or two. She jumped in shock and closed her eyes; like a dog begging for mercy. No doubt the water-works would soon follow.

"Don't you remember?" She wailed. Great. I hate it when girls cry.

I growled. "NO!" I stepped back and pranced. "No I don't remember." I mocked; impersonating her childish accusations. "And it doesn't' matter because nothing happened!"

I don't know if I was trying to correct her or if I was trying to convince myself that nothing happened. Truth be told, I don't remember what happened that night. But she, she seemed so positive. I mean, by now she would have spilled her guts and apologized but instead she's crying; pursuing the 'supposed' event.

Fuck.

I sighed and ran my hand through my hair and caused her to jerk. She covered her face as if I was going to strike her; leaving a crack between two fingers where she could see me. She was afraid and it was actually kind of fun. This surge of power that I felt; striking fear in her heart. Her life was in my hands...well, not really...but yeah. I could easily crush her and as enticing as that was, I pitied her.

I stepped back, eyes closed. "Get away from me." I muttered as calm as possible. I felt her carefully edge away but still standing ground. "NOW!" I hollered and she scurried away like a roach under the light.

What if it is true?

Sora's p.o.v

Have you ever walked into a room and everyone is suspiciously looking at you? You know that they were just talking about you and just as they try to 'act natural' you try to convince yourself you don't know what's going on; you fake oblivion and keep walking. But it actually hurts. To know that your so-called 'friends' talk behind your back...it's despicable, ludicrous, unacceptable...it makes me sad and angry at the same time. Really, they're all full of shi-

"Hi." I was knocked out of my stupor by a husky voice that no doubt belonged to none other than Matt Ishida. I gripped my spare books I held in my hands and turned around with a fake smile.

"Hi Matt." He leaned over for a kiss but me being so paranoid about PDA turned my face hoping he'd catch my cheek but unfortunately to my surprise, he cupped my chin and forced me to endure his osculation.

Don't get me wrong; it was...good, but it was wrong! My eyes lingered open and I could see people staring at us. Great, another reason for them to talk about.

'Sora Takenouchi didn't want to kiss her own boyfriend!' I could already hear the gossip come sixth period in the girl's locker room.

"Ok, that was nice." I pushed him away but he hugged back.

I nervously laughed and he oddly looked at me. Noting the curious looks we were receiving, I felt him loosen his grip and platonically stand next to me. He sympathetically smiled.

"Let's get out of here." Speechless, I looked at him stretching his hand out. I instinctively took it like a loyal girlfriend and allowed him to lead the way.

Passing through the cafeteria, we, or I should I received different kinds of looks. But they weren't looks of disgust or hate; they were of envy and actual happiness and support. I could see my team members from the Tennis team waving at me from the food line. They grinned and gave me the thumbs-up. That was nice. And then there were girls who glared at me and that felt good too because Matt only had eyes for me.

Sweet.

"Sit."

I furrowed my brow and looked around; I hadn't realized that were outside. We stood under the same oak tree where this whole ordeal began. My stomach lurched; so much for that short pick-me-up! I didn't have a good feeling about this. My legs were jittery; I wanted to run. I could feel my heart beat faster and faster and...

"What's wrong?"

"N-nothing." I wearily sat next to him gripping my skirt. His eyes lingered down my body. Is he trying to get a peek under my...

"Are you sure? You seem tense." He placed his hand over mine in consolation. I sighed. DUH! He must have noticed the way I was clutching myself; he was 'checking me out!'

Or was he?

I nodded and smiled though keeping a close eye on him. He happily looked at me with a glint in his eye that I could not make out. It was almost as if he was forcing himself to look at my face. I could tell his mind was somewhere else; he began to rub my hand, occasionally stroking my thigh in the process.

I narrowed my eyes...man, the things I would do to know what he was thinking...

Matt's p.o.v

She's sitting next to me.

My best friend...my girlfriend.

Saying it still gives me the chills. Butterflies tickle my stomach every time I hold her hand and even more so as my eyes linger down her frame. I hadn't realized that she had really grown. I mean come on!

Where her shirt fits loose everywhere else, it fits tight on her bosom. I love hugging her; I can feel her breast pressing against my chest. And then there's her unbelievably short skirt. God, look at those legs! Thick but not too big. Tight and firm and not a scratch on them! And a nice ass to complement them. Perfectly rounded; her skirt actually rises up from behind. I love it when she bends down.

As a matter of fact, if I tilt my head I can almost sneak a peak under...

"Matt, you're hurting me."

I came to my senses and saw that I had been clutching her hand in excitement. She wiggled out of my grasp; her hand imprinted with red marks resembling my fingers.

"Sorry." I tucked my hands between my legs and quickly looked away; how embarrassing!

About a minute passed and we sat in silence. I crossed my legs, pressing down on the bulge in my trousers that had aroused and looked at her from the corner of my eye. Her eyes were closed as she leaned back on the tree trunk. Her fiery red hair burned in the sunlight and her skin glowed like an angel.

My mouth began to water and I swallowed the excess saliva as my mouth produced more. I began to breathe quicker and I could feel my pants tightening once more.

I gotta have her.

Her chest slowly rose with every breath she took and I'm too occupied gawking at the frame of her bosom. If only the shirt were low-cut I could take a peak. Or if I could just fondle them...

I could feel my blood ferociously pumping through my veins and I know I've lost control over my body. I lifelessly watch as my hand uncontrollably reaches out to her. I ached for her touch.

Shit...she's opening her eyes!

She meekly stared at me. Her lips moved but I couldn't hear a thing she was saying. I am now revolted back to my original state and quickly lapse my arm over her shoulder and pull her towards me. Her petite body falls on mine and I welcome her embrace. I hold her head in position and ravage her lips.

Nice cover up, though I think she suspected something...

Her lips are supple and tasted like cherries. Her tongue is soft and playful. I hope she doesn't notice the bulge in my pants!

Sora's p.o.v

Was he about to grab my boobs???

We were sitting in silence and I didn't know what to do. I didn't want him to feel rejected so I closed my eyes; at least then I would have something to do...pretend I was 'relaxing.' I heard him rustling about but I didn't dare open my eyes, I guess I was scared. My face started to heat up; I knew he was watching me.

How annoying.

My eyes fluttered open and his hand was the first thing that came to view; about two inches away from my boobs. Dumbfounded, he looked at me with his arm suspended in the air.

"What are you doing?" My words didn't seem to get through to him.

Like he was in a trance or something and suddenly he pulled me towards him. My body helplessly fell on top of him as he edged away from the tree and lowered himself onto the ground. I braced myself and clung to his chest in surprise which he must have taken as a hug; he hugged me back!

And then I felt it.

The bulge in his pants growing more immense as I straddled him. It was surprisingly warm against my belly as he clung my head against my chest; perhaps to keep me from looking at his face. I imagine he was red as a beat and it reminded me of the time Tai and I were having a pillow fight in his room.

Being the excellent pillow fighter, I pounced and trounced him. Straddling him, I pinned his arms to the ground and laughed in his face. And as expected, he bore a sour expression; he was always a sore loser. I loosened my grip and he expertly swept me away. We tossed and wrestled harder than ever. Our bodies becoming weapons; I must admit he rough-handled me like never before. Although not on purpose, I remember he groped my thighs and grazed my breast; he tossed me around like a rag doll.

I wound up face down on the floor with him sitting on top of me. Exhausted he let his body fully fall on top of mine and I felt the projection inside his khaki shorts; stiff against my back.

It was quite flattering...but enough about Tai!

I tried to lift my head to get a look at Matt when he suddenly cupped my face and assaulted my lips. I let it go and kissed him back wondering in the back of my mind if you could see my underwear from behind.

Izzy's p.o.v

I dashed down the hall and jabbed at my locker in a panic. MY LAPTOP WAS ABOUT TO DIE!!!!

My stubby fingers riddled the combination as fast as possible when I heard frantic whispering coming from the stairs beyond the hall.

"Have you talked to Tai?" It sounded like Ivy and suddenly my laptop was forgotten.

I curiously crept down the hall and halted at the corner. Like in those spy movies, I casually peered over the corner and glanced at the "enemy."

"No." Jeff leaned against the wall as Ivy menacingly pocked him with her finger.

"Good, don't'."

Interesting...

"What's the big deal?" He grabbed her hand and pulled her toward him. "He's not going to find out; he was seriously drunk."

Ivy pulled away flicked Jeff's nose. "Don't touch me." She paced around with her arms crossed. "I'm not worried about him I'm worried about you!"

Jeff scrunched his face and quirked his head. "Why?"

Ivy grunted. "Because, you'll probably find a way to blab about it to one of your air headed friends."

Jeff chuckled. "Well, what can I say? I'm good, but you already know that." He smirked and Ivy rolled her eyes.

"Relax, it wasn't that great." Jeff frowned. "So you better not screw this up."

Assuming they were talking about the rumor I listened with more care.

"And why am I doing this again? I don't see why I have to give him credit for something I did."

Ivy made it all up!

"Because." Ivy seductively pressed her finger against his lip. "You'd do anything for me." She brushed her lips against his.

Gross! I looked away and ran down the hall in search of Tai when...

RRRIIIINNNG.

The bell rang signaling the end of lunch. Just as I was about to walk out the door people walked in and I was lost in a sea of freshmen; they were always so paranoid about getting late to class.

"Excuse me." I pushed through, moving against their flow as polite as possible but they wouldn't clear out. "Move it freshmen!" I impatiently grunted.

To my luck, a couple of kids cleared a path for me and let me through. Being a senior had its perks. I burst out the door and looked around the courtyard searching for Tai's unmistakable massive hair.

There!

I spotted him at our usual table gathering his things. I frantically ran towards him.

"Tai!" I panted. He was unusually calm and serious. "Tai, I have to tell you something!"

He didn't even look at me and kept walking. He raked his hair with his hand and sighed. "About what?" His voice was rough and impatient. Not in a good mood.

Dismissing his crude behavior I continued I chased after him; I'll scold him later. "It's about you and Ivy." He jerked at the sound of her name. He halted and fiercely glared at me. "The rumor..." I spoke with a quiver in my voice; people walking around us. "It's not true."

He arched his eyebrow and grabbed my collar. "What are you talking about?" He lightly shook me. "How do you know?"

I jerked away from him and smoothed my wrinkled collar. "I heard Ivy and Jeff talking about it." He wearily looked at me. "You didn't sleep with Ivy, Jeff did."

RRRIIIINNGG!

The tardy bell rang. We looked around; the courtyard was nearly empty except for a couple of wandering juniors. Tai looked at me, a little less edgy.

"Tell me more after school." I nodded and watched him walk away toward the right wing of the school where his fifth period class resided. I looked around once more and walked toward my own class in the computer lab.

I had to let Sora know; I just hope I'm not too late.
