A/N ~ Okay, here is the next chapter to this story. PLEASE REVIEW!
Looking Back
Chapter 3
I walked into my last class of the day and sighed in relief that it was almost over. It was great being a senior and all, but it was going to be a tough year. So far I had art with Kari and Tk, and calculus with Izzy. But no classes with Tai or Matt. Maybe that was for the best. I liked all of my teachers so far, but it was going to be hard to get by with my usual straight "A's".
I sat down and smiled at everyone in the room, making sure not to glance too long at once person. I had already been asked out by three guys and was not about to encourage another invitation at this point. I knew that I had changed over the summer, but not that much. I was sitting in the back when a certain blonde walked into the room. I tried to shirk back into the corner, but he noticed me and walked right towards me.
I had heard that his band had done exceedingly well over the summer, from people throughout the day. But I had tried not to let news of him affect me. It was hard, since when I had seen him that morning, my heart had been all a flutter.
He sat down beside me and moved his desk closer to mine. "So, how was New York? Mimi, Joe?" He asked.
So I told him that everyone was good and that New York was great. He smiled politely and then asked the inevitable question. "So, did you meet anyone? Have a boyfriend yet?" I blinked, trying to decide how to best answer the question.
"Of course I dated a few people. How about you?" I stared at him as if daring him to answer with a lie. I knew that with his looks he was bound to have dated someone over the summer.
But, just as he was about to answer the question the teacher walked into the room. "Class, I am going to give you the first assignment in pairs. Whomever you are sitting beside will be your partner." A series of groans went up around the room and I glanced at Matt. He had a huge smile on his face and was looking right back at me.
I blushed as my heart began to race and looked down at my desk as the teacher assigned the project. As the class ended, I walked out. Matt caught up with me. "So, when do you want to meet to work on the project? How about Saturday at my place?"
I thought for a second. "Okay, but you have to promise me that you will keep it business."
He grinned and said, "Of course my lady." He then took my hand and brushed his lips across it. I about melted right then and there. He sure was making it hard to keep my distance from him. He walked off then smiling and whistling.
I walked out the door of the school and it wasn't until Tai was up right next to me that I noticed him. "Sora, I was calling you for the last five minutes. What is up?" He said as he ran up to me.
"Oh, I'm sorry Tai. I was just caught up in the days events. Did you need something?"
He smiled at me and said, "Well, actually I did. I know that you and Matt are broken up and I missed you this summer." He blushed and said, "Actually what I was thinking was that you and I could go out sometime. What do you say about Friday night?"
I stood there for a minute. This was not going well at all. First Matt, and now Tai. "Well...." He looked like he was going to cry as I said that and then Matt's words from before the summer came back to me. I needed to give Tai a chance. I smiled and said, "Yes, I think that would be fine."
He grinned and I couldn't help but grin back. Then he kissed me on the cheek and ran away saying, "I'll pick you up at about 7!"
I didn't know what to do. I loved Matt, or I thought that I did. But, I felt something for Tai too. I owed it to us all to explore those feelings. It wasn't like Matt had remained single for the whole summer or anything. So he had this coming. It was fault he didn't stay with me.
The week passed quickly and I sighed as Friday came. I didn't know what to do about the dates with both boys, but I was sure this weekend would be a weekend to last for all time.
