A/N: See? This one is longer than the last! Hehe.

Chapter 2: I'm Sorry, You Lie, Halfway Through Why


I narrowed my eyes, she was here. Perhaps to criticize me like she has for so long since that unforgotten day I remember so clearly. It was normal for her to do so. I decided to acknoledge her for this once, "What is it that you want now?" I know that sounded a bit cold, but that didn't matter at the moment.

I was skipping, literally skipping, to class. That seemed scary considering I don't ever do that. It just isn't me. I mean it would just be weird that a girl that is always dressed in all black and is a loner to be skipping in a hallway. I ignored all the strange stares I was given by the "high-class" people in this school. You know, the top of the food-chain. The "big cheese".

I was gleeful that afternoon. Today was me and my lover's anniversery of dating each other for a whole year! Its practically amazing for me! She and I are oing to meet after school for a romantic dinner together. Hah. Romantic...never thought I'd say that.

I took my seat in class and waited for it to end. Quickly. I'm so anxious to see her right now. I looked at the clock fourteen times. Its going by too slow. Tap. Tap. Tap. The sound of my pencil will get me calm probably. Tap. Tap. Tap. Calm. Stay calm. I looked at the clock again. Five minutes, thats it and I'm out. Tap. Tap. Tap. Ring! I'm out! Yes! Jumping out of my seat, I grabbed my books and ran out the door, to my locker, then outside to wait.

A couple of seconds later my lover walked out. She smiled brightly and gave me a hug which I gratefully returned.

"Hey, how was your day?" She asked.

"Fine thank you. What about you?" I clinged to her arm as we began walking home, leaning my head on her shoulder.

She seemed to feel...uncomfortable with what I was doing. "It was great."

I let go of her. She was acting strange. Usually she wouldn't mind if I did that or anything else to her. I looked down, silence in the atmosphere. How awkward. She's too quiet, way too quiet for my liking. I like her better as a blabbermouth. At the corner of my eye I saw her looking somewhere to a group of people. They looked as if they were in a gang or something. Please don't let her be associating with them.

"Tenten, I have to go somewhere for a while, but I'll pick you up at 8 okay?"

I nodded. Just my luck. She ran off towards them. Wait, where's my hug goodbye! Arg. There really is something wrong with her right now. I always get a hug before she leaves to go off somewhere. Maybe she forgot this once. I decided to go home and get ready, thinking of how it would go tonight.

--

It was almost time for her to pick me up. I was so excited. The door rang and I opened it, enveloping her in a hug. Hesitantly she returned it. Something is going to happen tonight. Something bad. I don't like this feeling. It bothered me the whole time she drove to the restraunt.

She sat across from me. This place was quite fascinating. So...lively and fancy.

"How do you like the night so far?" She questioned, interrupting my thoughts.

"Oh, its pretty cool." I smiled, "You know you didn't really have to do this."

"Well I did already so deal," she replied, murmuring something inaudible. I didn't quite catch what she said though.

I messed with my fork, turning it many times inspecting it, trying to keep myself interested. "Is there something bothering you? You seem so...different than usual today. Distant if I may add."

She shook her head, "Oh nothing's wrong. Nothing at all. I've just been thinking a lot."

"I'm sure."

"Fine don't believe me goth girl."

I stuck my tongue out playfully. "Prep."

"Excuse me? I am no prep whatsoever. You wish."

"Oh yea," I rolled my eyes, "I do, they're so much better looking than you."

"Rude much." She glared at me.

"You know it and love it," I laughed slightly.

Lightly hitting me on the head, she said, "Stop trying to flatter yourself."

I made a face and she laughed. I didn't need to flatter myself, that was her job. I raised an eyebrow when she took her kife and put the sharp edge in her mouth, chewing on it. "What in the world are you doing?"

"Eating," she replied bluntly.

"Its not food deary, its a thing we cut our food with. Careful, you might make yourself bleed." I chuckled. It looked so cute.

"I know that. Ow!" Pulling the knife out of her mouth, her lip was bleeding, thankfully a small cut and not too deep. "You just had to jynx me didn't you?"

"I guess, you okay?" A worried expression crossed my face.

"I'm fine, really." She licked the blood off with her tongue. "Mmm tasty, its like metal."

"Ew. Okay thats gross, very gross."

She smiled, frowning slightly. A plate of food was placed in front of her and I. I quckily dug in, I was so hungry. Damn people making me wait. Unlike me, she ate slowly, not quite in a rush. Silence was so awkward. I looked up, my mouth full of food and tilted my head questioningly.

She giggled, "How cute. I'm going to miss that."

I raised an eyebrow. "What do you...mean by that?"

"It was just me talking to myself, as always."

That statement was true. She does talk to herself, too much if you ask me. I finished eating and I looked at her, she had barely eaten anything.

"I guess I wasn't as hungry as I had intended." Clank. Clank. Clank. The fork messed with the food, hitting the plate once in a while. "Lets go now, to the park?"

"Oh fun!" I clapped my hands together gleefully.

I insisted I pay the bill but she won the arguement and payed instead. Getting in her car, I got this bad feeling again. I thought it was gone but I was wrong.


I turned around facing her, looking at the face I loved so dearly. The one I seemed to hate with a passion. Ironic, ne? "Well? Are you just gonna stand there looking stupid or are you gonna say something?"

"I...I...I'm...sorry...Tenten..."

I knew what she was talking about and I quickly replied, "Thats bullshit you liar."

She lied and betrayed me. Betrayed my trust. She broke my heart and still the pieces have yet to mend. There was no one to put the back together. She played me like a toy, a fool.There's nothing worse than knowing no one loves you, no one wants you, no one needs you. Everything has gone wrong.

"Just listen-" She started to plead but I interrupted her.

"Why should I? There's no excuse for what you did. Nothing you can say about it. I should have never believed someone could love me, especially you. I hate you!" I screamed the last part so loud all the birds in the tress fluttered away in fright.

She winced, staying silent for a moment, hesitating on what she was going to say. She walked a bit closer and I backed away even more.

Dark clouds began to form around the area and farther. A loud rumbling roar was heard. Drip. Drip. Drip. At first little droplets came down slowly, then it came down hard on us both. Tears were forming at the corner of my eyes, threatening to fall if I didn't wipe them away quickly. If I did, she'd know I was crying. They started flowing freely and I made a whimpering noise that was close to a whisper.


A/N: Well that's all for now. Tune into the next chapter soon! Hope you enjoyed this chapter! Review please!

Vampire Toy- Hehe thanks!

Unerasable Sin- Thanks! However, I didn't get it either though I'm the writer. I wrote this last year is why I don't remeber I suppose.

Saico- I though of using Temari, but I knew she was a lot tougher than Tenten, so I just used the weapons mistress.

Next Chapter- Feelings are reawakened, and the truth finally comes out, along with the rest of this epic tale.
