Chapter 17

Kyle smiled lightly as he finished packing away his books and such, he had just finished his current class and was getting ready to head for lunch. He was one of the last to leave the class apart from Ms. Williams. Exiting her class, Laura Williams smiled warmly at her favourite student.

"Ah, Kyle hello, how are you?" She asked him casually.

Kyle smiled. "I'm pretty good actually, never better. Things have been getting better for Jenn and I and I think we're closer than ever now."

Laura Williams paused at that, biting her lip. "Really...you mean…?"

"Oh um..." Kyle realized and blushed slightly. "I didn't mean, we're just. It's going well and we're hoping that things have calmed down now and we can continued dating without any, issues."

"Are you sure that's a good idea, getting so close like that, Kyle?" She asked suddenly.

Kyle started. "What, Ms. Williams?"

She shook her head. "Ah, sorry I just, I'm concerned, I mean, Jenn Murphy, are you sure she's the right girl for you. I mean...she's not exactly...the way she dresses can sometimes be a little bit, much."

"What, there's...Ms. Williams that's not exactly…?" He replied, startled, as well as a little creeped out that she was asking him such personal things.

It also didn't help that she seemed to be unintentionally insulting Jenn.

She seemed to have realized that as she quickly backtracked. "I'm sorry, I crossed the line. I shouldn't have...I was just concerned but of course you know yourself best. Don't mind me."

"Um, yeah...okay, thanks." Kyle replied awkwardly.

With that he went his separate ways from Laura Williams, feeling rather confused and awkward at the sudden conversation he had just had with her.

Later, at lunch, while the others were busy, Kyle smiled as he hung out with Jamie. After eating for a while in silence, Kyle smiled and spoke up.

"So, how has everything been going on between you and Lyla?" Kyle asked.

Jamie grinned at that and replied at once. "We're doing great, we're actually thinking of going out on another date soon."

"That's cool man, you guys certainly deserve to be happy." Kyle remarked.

"Yeah, well, I honestly don't know what it is, but...I can't help but feel something is...bothering her." Jamie said suddenly, biting his lip.

"Oh?"

"She's still having trouble with her...insomnia, I do what I can to help. But I feel like there's...something there, behind all the smiles and jokes. Like she's troubled by something." Jamie explained. "I wanna help her, to try and overcome it. But I don't...I don't want to pry, I want her to tell me when she's ready."

Kyle nodded slowly. "I...I see, well, that's really all you can do I guess. But apart from that, are you guys, really…?"

"Oh, yeah, no problem there. We're both, happier than we've ever been actually." Jamie replied with a grin. "We're really looking forward to this date and...well we've met each other's families and they're happy for us, things are looking great."

Kyle grinned too, he couldn't agree more.

After a brief pause Jamie then asked.

"So, how about you and Jenn?"

Kyle smiled. "We're pretty good too, I've...I've not met her family yet though, she's still a bit wary about me meeting her dad. Supposed to be super protective of her and all that so..."

Jamie nodded, grimacing as he realized what Kyle meant.

"I supposed it's just the way some fathers are with their daughters, huh?" Kyle remarked.

Jamie sighed. "I guess, I wouldn't know...When we met each other's families...I only saw Lyla's mom, no sign of her dad."

"Oh, um, right..." Kyle stammered. "Wonder why?"

Jamie shrugged. "It didn't seem polite to ask, so I didn't, I was worried it might be something, sensitive anyway, so...yeah..."

Kyle bit his lip. "Ah, good point..."

There was a moment of silence before Jamie then remarked.

"Yeah, well, anyway, have you and Jenn made any plans for future dates?"

Kyle grinned at that. "Well, not yet but we have been thinking about it, putting out possible ideas. But I think we're both thinking of making our next date a bit special, mainly to try and help us overcome all those issues we've been dealing with."

"Sounds good, I'm sure it'll be great for you guys." Jamie replied. "You guys deserve it after all that crazy shit."

Kyle nodded in agreement, the two boys continuing to talk and enjoy their lunch, both happy and having their talk about their respective relationships gave them hope for the future.

Unbeknownst to them, the stalker glared as they watched Kyle chatting with his friend at lunch.

'This is getting ridiculous now, how can he still want that skank Jenn Murphy, with her ridiculous slutty clothes and fake body, she...' The stalker thought bitterly. 'I made it clear, sent so many messages to show the truth and yet he is still not...'

Growling to themselves, unable to take this anymore, the stalker left, with a backwards scowl at Kyle.

The stalker continued. 'This cannot go on, I need to make it even clearer it seems. That slut needs to be dealt with and Kyle needs to see that I am the only one for him.'

With that they left the room, already scheming as they sought a new plan, one that would ensure that they would get Kyle for themselves, even if it meant getting rid of Jenn Murphy, permanently.

End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
