Chapter 9: Life Goes On
Summary: Sebastian moves on with his life but is it the end of Kathryn?
Life went on as usual for me after the Kathryn incident. Shortly after that morning Kathryn quietly withdrew from school. I don't know what happend to her, she still lived in New York because my father dated her mother for a little while. Eventually their big romance died down and my father went back to his skirt chasing and work.
As for me? Well life went on and I continued to seduce the better half of the female population. It was mindless sex really and I figured that was how my life would continue until I was old and shriveled and didn't care about sex anymore. A touch dramatic I suppose, but I always did have the flair for dramatics. I thought of Kathryn though and wondered what happend to her. I drove past her house a few times but never stopped by. What was I supposed to say? "Hi Kathryn I ruined your life, but now I'm sorry."? Like that would go over well!
I always lived my life like how I wanted to and was never one to dwell on the past, but sometimes I caught myself remembering that one day in school when I first laid eyes on Kathryn. Even then I was swept away by her beauty. Maybe if I did things a little differntly there would have been a better outcome. I guess I will never know. But I will tell you something though, at night I was haunted by visions of a certain green eyed female.

6 Months Later
My life continued on and I graduated from highschool. Yes I finallly made it out of the school and was now on the way of being a productive member of society. Scary huh? In the fall I would be attending NYU and majoring in photography. Until then I took it easy and partied my way through the summer.
I was at a pool party at somebody I went to school with. Noone important really, just someone that had an empty house and some booze out. That's what mattered to me and I laid on a raft in the pool lazily drinking a bottle of beer. There was plenty of somewhat decent girls trying to score with me, but I really wasn't in the mood. I just wanted to get drunk and catch some rays. That's what I was doing when I heard the unmistakable laugh of the girl that haunted my dreams at night. My eyes flew open and I began to scan the area for the owner of that voice. I saw her finally sitting on a lounge chair talking to a group of male admirers. I jumped off my raft and made the way over in her direction to get a better look at her.
She looked dynamite! Her skin was a golden brown and the green bikini she wore complimented her tan. And that body! Her bikini showed off every curve. It let little to the imagination and the effect oozed sex appeal. Now what should I do? I thought to myself. If I approached her there is the good chance that she would push me in the pool and try to drown me! Guessing there were too many people around to make a scene I got out of the pool and uncertainly began to walk towards her. As I approached her, she turned in my direction and her smile froze on her lips when she saw it was me. She looked at me with an unreadable expression and I sighed and hoped for the best.
"Hello Kathryn."
"Hello Sebastian." She said coolly.
The circle of admirerers looked at me warily as I intruded on their precious time with Kathryn. "How have you been?" I asked poliely.
"Fine." She replied just as politely back.
I stood there ackwardly and knew she wasn't gonna make it easy for me. "Will you excuse me guys?" I asked and looked around at the circle of guys.
They looked over at Kathryn for approval and when she gave a curt not they gave me a questioning glance and began to walk away.
"What do you want?" She asked when we were alone.
"I wanted to knw how you have been." I said lamely.
"Like you care?"
I knew I deserved it, but it wasn't making things easier. Charm and bullshit wasn't gonna make it with her and how does one really apologize for ruining someone's life?
"I suppose." Kathryn began to muse out loud."You did me a favor. Saving me from such a lame school like Manchester Prep."
"Well that's one way to look at it." I said and sat down next to her.
She glared over at me. "That still doesn't excuse what you did."
"C'mon Kathryn." I smiled winningly at her "You had it coming. All that shit you pulled and I wasn't supposed to do anything?"
She suprised me by laughing out loud. "You were a worthy opponent I'll give you that."
Holy shit! Was she actually paying me a compliment? Maybe the time gone thawed her a little bit.
"So does it mean you forgive me?" I asked and inched a little bit towards her.
She turned to me and gave me a dirty look. "Sebastian I never forgive and forget."
She jumped to her feet and turned to me. She bent down and whispered in my ear. "It's too bad we could have been a hell of a team!" She said and gave my ear a little lick.
