Fighting
Soara sat by herself waiting, watching as people passed talking with their friends, she had told her friends she wanted to be alone today. She sensed Ignited walk by. He sat near her but not at the same table. Her heart sank and she tried to hide her pain by eating. She could feel him coming a bit closer and felt his glare on her. She could sense he was worried but followed her orders. She felt Gyo's footsteps come towards her but Kara quickly pulled him to Ignites table. Soara heart was lifted when she realized that her friends cared about her so much that they would do anything to keep her happy.
"Hey Soara…why are you by yourself?" a voice asked from behind her. The happy uplifting voice from Ali just agitated Soara. She could sense her friends tense as Ali sat down beside Soara. Soara tilted her head away and moved slightly away from her. Ali looked at the group of kids staring at them in shock. Ali tilted her head slightly confused. Mankey flew off of Ali's shoulder and landed on Ignites. He did nothing to greet his pet. "Um, can me and Soara talk alone?" She asked them as they stared on. They nodded slightly and walked away. Kara left with Gyo but Ignite went in a different direction and completely disappeared from Soara's view.
"What do you want?" Soara asked as her voice cracked. Her hands were shaking out of anger and sadness. Ali swiftly moved to the other side of the table to look into Soara's eyes.
"So how long have you've been a lesbian for?" Ali asked. Soara dropped her drink that she was raising to her lips as Ali spoke. Anger filled over powered her sadness. Adrenaline shot through her blood as she slammed her hands against the table.
"What!?" Soara yelled standing up and placing her face very close to Ali's. Ali trembled and leaned back afraid of her friend's anger. Soara stood there waiting for answer ready to punch her in the face as she clutched her hands.
"I was just joking…I know you like Ignite," Ali tried to explain. Soara was dumbfounded for a moment than was filled with anger again. Her mind wasn't thinking clearly and she didn't quite know what to say but she spoke anyways.
"Who told you!?" she demanded. Ali winced again at Soara's aggressive voice.
About you and Kara or you and Ignite?" she asked slightly confused. Soara was confused too. She slowly sat down and thought for a moment on what to say and she finally mumbled the words out knowing that she was admitting her feelings.
"Sparky," She whispered to the air. Soara could sense Ali smile and it mad her frustrated.
"Well it's kinda obvious…I mean you two hang out a lot, and the way you act around him too…you really like him," Ali explained. Soara rolled her eyes and was getting bored of her. Now she really wanted to be alone. "And to tell you the truth I think he likes you too," Ali whispered to Soara. She turned back to Ali surprised. Her heart started to race as she thought of Ignite liking her back but than reality set in and she knew he liked Ali.
"He doesn't like me," Soara murmured. A blindly looked down at her feet. Ali tilted her head again stating that she was confused. Soara was getting irritated at that action and wanted her to stop doing that immediately.
"Oh really…so why does he act so nice and kind to you? Why does he spend so much time with you? Its pretty obvious that he likes you and you can't admit that can you…you're too blind to see that he likes you back,"
"I would watch your mouth if I were you!" Soara voiced boomed. "He does that stuff because it's in his nature unlike you; you're just a selfish, self-absorbed, ungrateful wretch! He does like me and I know this! I know he likes someone else!" she spat in Ali's face. Ali pushed Soara's face away from hers. She tensed with anger.
"Really I'm a wretch! Well at least I'm not a pompous bitch like you!" Ali retorted.
"You don't even know what pompous means let alone bitch! You little goodie too shoo!"
"At least I'm not a mean, overrated, aggressive, lonesome kid!"
"Shut up! You barely even know me! You don't know what I've been through!"
"Oh, I have a pretty good idea of who you are…I'm pretty, good-looking and loved…you're just blind!" Ali snapped at her with a smug tone. Blind!? Soara quickly punched her in the jaw and Ali flew off her seat and into the ground. Soara quickly jumped on her ready to hit her again. Ali blasted air at her. Soara flew through the air and landed with a thud on her back. She winced and crawled back up to her feet. Many students had already gotten out of the way. Soara pulled her hand back to punch her yet again (it gave her more satisfaction to hit her than blast rocks her way). Ali was ready to retaliate. As her hand flew through the air it was caught by Ignite's hand. He had also seized Ali. He pushed them farther away from each other.
"What are you two doing!?" he asked apprehensively. The two girls said nothing but kept staring at each other. Ignite's head moved back and forth from girl to girl. Soara's heart sank as the hurtful words finally sank into her. You're just blind. The words echoed in her head and weakened her heart with every beat. She pushed Ignite away as he tried to comfort them and stop this feud. Soara walked away fuming. And Ali walked the opposite way. Ignite looked back and forth as his too friends left. He looked to see Soara's eyes filled with water as they slightly looked back at him. His heart sank deeply. He looked at Ali as she walked away. He longed for a chance be alone with her but he didn't know what he should do. Take advantage of the situation and get closer to Ali or comfort Soara. Who should I choose? The girl I like …or my best friend?
