Chpater 11: Game Over

'Aw come on, I know you're not serious.'

'Yes I am! God why don't you believe me? Bryan!'

'Sarah, maybe you're just doing this for revenge? How do you know it isn't your imagination?'

'Because I saw her with my own two eyes, you idiot! If its not real, why do you think I have a cast on my wrist?'

'You said she bent it, not break it, are you really that weak, oh, oops, pardon my words, miss saigon.' Bryan smirked as the girl glared.

'I'm serious! I saw the bitch go into his house! Why are you all protecting her for?' her voice was getting louder as she got angrier.

'What now, Sarah?' Ray said, coming up with Kai and Ozuma.

'Bryan won't believe me!' she whined, stamping her foot.

'About what?' the Chinese asked, sitting down lazily at his desk.

'I saw Miko go into Tala's house!'

Kai looked up sharply. 'yeah right. That's not possible.'

'Why don't you believe me!' she screamed. The class stopped. Those including Max, Misha and Enrique.

'I know what I saw!'

'What you guys arguing about now?' Enrique asked casually.

Ozuma snorted. "sarah thinks she saw Miko go into Tala's house.'

'WHAT?' Misha shot out of her seat. 'you cant be serious. Sinking so low as to make up something like that. You have some nerve.'

'I'm. Not. Lying.' Sarah said through gritted teeth.

Before the brunette could reply, Deseara, Oliver and Tyson walked in, along with Miko.

Deseara was the first one to notice the silence. 'why are y'all so quiet?'

Nobody answered her. For Tala had just walked in, rubbing the sleep from his eyes, well…if he had any. He looked tired and there were hints of shadows under his eyes.

'What happened to you?' Kai asked as the redhead sat down beside him.

'Huh? Oh nothing.'

'Yeah right, Tala. And I thought you were a good liar.'

'What? Im not lying.'

Whispers broke amongst the students.

'What's gotten into everybody today?' Tyson wondered.

Sarah opened her mouth to speak but Ray clamped his hand over her mouth.

'Don't say a word. This is definitely not a good thing to be spreading around. Yes, I know you hate her and all,' he said impatiently as the girl made a noise of protest. 'but if you let it out, things could get really ugly. Haven't you noticed how Miko's been acting lately? One more blow and she'll…well…murder somebody.'

'I can hear you, idiot.' Miko said, from her seat in front of them.

'I was whispering!' Ray said, indignant.

She scoffed. 'yeah, you suck at it.'

'You have abnormal hearing okay?'

'I don't care. But what I do want to know is what were you talking about? There's definitely something you know that I don't know. Spill it. Kon.'

'I don't take orders from you.'

'Yeah? Wanna bet?' she stood up and turned to face him. 'I swear, Kon, if I find out that you're talking about me behind my back, I'll show you a whole different side of me.'

She noticed a glint in his golden eyes and she groaned, having not realized that he took her meaning the wrong way.

'That's not what I meant.' She snapped.

'You are such a whore!' Sarah screamed, when Ray had let go of her.

'Based on what huh? On what?' Miko yelled at the girl. 'I don't see you walking around bothering other people? So why do you shove yourself in front of my face all the time?'

'Based on what? You want me to tell you? I saw you the other day.'

'What other day?' Then her eyes fell on Sarah's wrist. She smirked. 'oh, that day. I barely even moved it, Sarah, you don't even need a bandage, let alone a cast.'

'Don't try and change the subject, Miko. I saw you, with my own two eyes. You walked into Tala's house.'

The girl froze, and the redhead looked up.

'You've got to be kidding.'

'Oh don't try to deny it.' Sarah smirked triumphantly.

'I'm not.' The class gasped. She sighed impatiently. 'you people are so friggin stupid. I went into his house because it was pouring hell. I'm not like the rest of you. All you think about is people fucking each other. And I didn't even know it was his house. Ask him yourself.'

That's when all eyes turned to Tala. He was silent. Then he opened his mouth slowly. 'aren't you missing something though?'

'what?'

'I mean, what happened after you came in?'

her eyes widened. 'why don't you say it yourself? Scared?'

'You really want me to say it?'

She searched for any falter in his eyes, but she found none. 'I bet you wont.'

'Really miko? I mean, how did it feel? Huh? How did it feel to be kissed?'

it was so silent in the class you couldn't hear anyone moving, only Miko's ragged breathing.

'no..way…'

'no way what?'

'I cant believe you Tala Valkov!'

'you cant expect me to keep it quiet for long. I mean, it was good.'

Miko slowly took a few steps back. Then she whipped around and ran, stumbling through the door and disappeared.

A triumphant grin was on Sarah's face.

Misha and Deseara were speechless.

The players stared at Tala in surprise.

And the redhead himself lowered his eyes and did not raise them for a long time.

Even when the lesson started, everyone was more quiet than usual.

'what happened to you all today?' Mr Foura asked, bewildered. Even Misha and Deseara, who were always talking, stayed silent.

But no one noticed the redhead as he slipped out the classroom.

Miko ran, harder than she ever had in her life. Tears were streaming down her cheeks. This was the first time in her life she had cried this hard. She just couldn't take it anymore. All the buildup inside had finally exploded. She burst through the door and out into the dark, gray weather. Before she could get across the courtyard, her legs gave away and she toppled to the ground. Holding herself, she sobbed. It was all gone, her trust. In one split second, it vanished.

Tala ran through the halls, looking for any sign of the girl. Suddenly a loud boom sounded in the sky outside, making him jump, he frowned at the darkening sky through the window. Then he noticed the front door was slightly ajar, walking towards it, he pushed it open and poked his head out. That's when he noticed the figure on the ground. A twinge of guilt tugged on his conscience.

Miko tried desperately to stop her tears but she couldn't. The more she cried, the more she thought about all the things in the past, her brother, Tala, her mom and what not.

'fuck y-you, Jeff, don't you know that I need you the most right now! You bloody ingrate!' she hugged herself tighter; suddenly she felt something hard poke her from her pocket. Fumbling with it, she found the small box. She was going to give it to her brother, soon it will be his birthday. But the more she looked at it, the angrier she got, she was angry at her brother for ditching her, and for being friends with the redhead. Clambering up, she threw the box away from her. It skipped a few feet away from her and clattered to a stop.

'stop! Stop! Fucking stop it!' she screamed, doubling over and clutching her stomach, squeezing her eyes shut, trying to rid herself of all the tears.

Tala walked slowly towards her. 'miko?'

She turned around, spotting the redhead, she ran in the opposite direction.

'hey Wait!'

'get away from me!'

'no, you have to listen!'

'I don't have to do anything with you!'

when he got closer, he reached out and grabbed her around the waist, spinning her around to face him. she pushed to release herself from him, but every time, he would grab her again. She kept going.

'let me go!'

'Miko!'

'I have nothing to say to you, you jerk!'

'look, I didn't want to say it! Not one chance. But I had to!'

'why? Because your afraid for your reputation?' she sneered. He didn't answer.

'oh my god! I really can't stand you anymore! First you act like an asshole, then you tried to molest me!'

'hey, you never fought back!' he argued, still trying to subdue the girl.

'would you have given me a chance? Hello! I was in your house! You house dammit!'

'would you just stop for minute?'

'no! because I have nothing to do with you anymore. I was wrong okay! I was wrong to have trusted you! Wrong to have believed you were changing, and most of all, wrong to believe I loved you…'

He stopped, not sure of what he was hearing. Did Miko, the hardest-to-get girl of the school, just say she loved him? He knew his friends were beginning to realize that he was falling for the girl. But he never thought things would turn out like this.

Taking opportunity of his loosened grip, she pulled out of his grasp and backed away from him slowly, tears pooling in her eyes.

'I was wrong…' she whispered to him and turned around, running down the steps, she disappeared from his sight.
