Chapter 2

"Now as we go into High School, we will all be facing problems that can occur to anyone, but we'll...." Sibyl said for her speech as Deryk and his family sat in the audience.
"She looks really pretty today. Don't you think so, Trunks?" Pan was saying to her husband, who was awfully mesmerized with the inside of his eyes. "I swear, you never pay attention to anything anymore!" She whispered harshly while prodding him with her finger and waking him.
"I'm awake! Sorry, sweetie." Trunks replied sleepily. "I just didn't get enough sleep last night, since someone was being a wildcat." Pan blushed deeply at this comment while Lizzie and Akira were grossing out. Deryk kept his eyes on Sibyl, making sure she knew he was there for her.
"Thank you." Sibyl finished, walking back to her seat. She looked at Deryk and he gave her a nod of approval while she smiled shyly.
'Good job.' he mouthed to her. She beamed as the principal made the final statement before people began coming up to get recognized. He turned to look at his family and saw his mother almost ready to strangle his father. 'Oh boy.' he thought. 'Not again. I swear those two are fighting more often now a-days.' He remembered the last time they fought this much. It was right after they finally came back to Japan after staying for almost 6 years in America, he had just met his father and the rest of his family. Then all the stuff that happened with his parents, and then Akira....boy was she a shock. He still couldn't believe his parents did the same thing twice! Was getting drunk and accidentally having sex together their way of having children? It's not like he really cared, he was alive and that's pretty much all that mattered.
"Will you all please just calm down? Sibyl's about to go up there!" Akira said to her feuding parentals while watching the stage. Sure enough, Sibyl was walking gracefully across the stage and shaking hands with the principal, all the while glancing at Deryk.
The principal stepped up to the podium once again to give information on the dance that followed the ending of the ceremony. People began to file out of the auditorium, except for the kids.
"I'm gonna stay and I'll take Sibyl home later. Is that okay with you guys?" Deryk asked his parents. Lizzie and Akira stood next to him giving them the puppy dog pout, wanting to stay and talk to people too.
"I guess so, as long as your home on time." Pan said as she began to search through her purse for a cell phone. "Call me when you're on your way home." She handed him a small cell phone and began to walk away. Trunks walked up to Deryk with a sly smile on his face.
"You better not knock her up, at least wait until she's 17. That's how old your mother was." He smirked at the horrified look on his son's face. "I know how you look at her, that's not just a friendship you two have. You may not realize it yet, but you two have more than just a friendship...that's for sure."
"Dad, you really need to get your head checked. Cause you are so fuc....messed up it isn't even funny." Deryk said while trying not to jump around with joy. If his own dad noticed, then it wasn't long until Sibyl noticed.....right? He sure hoped she would notice, although they had been best friends for the past 5 years, he had suddenly seen her in a new light one day during his freshman year in high school.
"Deryk! Where are you at boy?!" He heard Sibyl yelling his name. He turned his head slightly and saw her waiting for him by the doors that led to the gymnasium. She looked at him as if telling him to hurry his ass up. He placed a smirk on his face and walked over to her.
"What's wrong? Only about an hour ago you didn't even want to be here. What changed your mind?" He asked in a teasing tone.
She rolled her eyes at him and crossed her arms in front of her chest. "I only want to dance once and then I want to leave." she said while looking inside the gym. It was decorated with streamers everywhere and a lot of balloons.
He held out his arm to her. "Well, shall we?" she gave him a small smile and hooked her arm in his while walking inside and straight to the 'dance floor', since 'You got it bad' by Usher started playing. He put his arms around her waist as she put her arms around his broad shoulders, and began to sway to the music. He looked at her angelic face and slowly a smile crept up on his face. He was just happy to be around her, he just didn't know that that was exactly what she was thinking when she looked up at him.
"So, where we going after this dance?" He asked her, since it was her idea to dance once then leave in the first place. She looked as if she was in thought for a moment and then opened her mouth to speak.
"I think we should go to our little secluded spot. I don't really feel like going home right now. My mom will just bitch at me about how late I am anyways." She rolled her slightly glossy eyes at the thought of her mother. Marron wasn't the best mother anyone would ever ask for. She was rude, spoiled, and married to her dad. Sibyl was never close to Marron, she had lived with her dad for most of her life, so she idolized him. Then suddenly, there she was, on the front door step, begging for Uub to take her back. The only thing her mother did for her was make her realize what not to do when she became a mother.
"That's a good idea. If your mom is a bitch again you can always come over to my house, you know the door's always open for you." He said softly, he knew why Sibyl hated her mother so much. What most people thought of Sibyl, you know the happy girl with nothing wrong in her life, was the total opposite. Marron beat Sibyl when her father was at work or out doing something. She only had small bruises, so she really didn't do anything about it. She would just call Deryk up and stay at his house when it happened. Or she would go to the spot where they first met and Deryk would just suddenly appear, as if he knew she was distraught.
"Thanks, you really are a good friend." She hated saying that almost as much as Deryk hated hearing it. It reminded them both of what they were to each other and what they could never be, a couple. But sometimes, they both wondered if they had some sort of special bond. One always knew when the other was in trouble and they always knew what the other was thinking. It reassured her that they were really good friends, though she wish they could be more.
"Hey look, it's that kid that tried to beat you up in the seventh grade." Deryk whispered pointing to a bulky looking boy. She smiled at the memory of the day she got in a fight with him. She didn't know why it made her smile, she just guessed it was because Deryk skipped part of his third period class just to save her from a bully. And he beat the shit out of him too! Maybe they did have a special bond, maybe someday she would express her feelings for him. And just maybe they would be reciprocated. She would just have to wait and see....

A/N: Okay, that one was a bit longer....I think. I hope you're enjoying this so far. The next chapter will be what has been happening with Lizzie. Stick around, I should have the third chapter out soon!
