A/N: I wrote this chapter pretty fast I wish I could update more often maybe I will get some work done on Christmas break that starts Friday for me:) This chapter starts the second part of the story there will probably be four parts total. I will explain the meaning behind the name of the part when the last chapter comes before part 3:) Read away!

Part 2: Landfill

Point of View: Tiara Green

I pull out my pack of gum and almost cry out when I see it's empty. You would think I was a quitting smoker from all the empty gum boxes in my bag. I've gone through three today. I sigh and pull out a clicky pen and click my way down the hallway while my other hand taps a slow beat on my thigh. The minute bell rings just as I step into the classroom.

I sit down in my usual spot with the seat next to me vacant since Tyler went to tour the University of California in Irvine. I turn towards Caitlyn to see her looking at me already with a pity smile for my loneliness.

The bell rings again and he walks in holding a stack of papers, "Good afternoon class I hope you all had a wonderful weekend."

"How was your weekend Mr. Somerhalder?" Sandra questions a little too interested.

"It was good. It could've been better but hey I won't complain." He smiles sweeping his eyes over the audience before him but locks on me for a moment too long. "Well enough of the small talk let's get to work. This is the last day of grammar for awhile I promise."

Taking that as our queue we all take out our notebooks preparing to take notes. I click on my pen a little faster realizing that he will be lecturing today and I have to sit here watching him stand right in front of me and act like nothing is wrong. I take a deep breath and stare at the blank page in front of me.

You can do this you can make it through this class! It's been a week you've made it this long you can make it a little longer then bam! You'll be on Thanksgiving break all alone with no sexual frustrating teacher to tease you. No gorgeous physique, beautiful smile, icy blue eyes, perfect sex hair, voice that could make your body fall apart with one syllable, and one very well endowed blessing below the waist. Yeah... None of that at all.

"Tiara? Earth to Tiara?"

I jump out of my fantasy to see everyone staring at me. "Oh... Sorry Mr. Somerhalder my attention is all yours."

"No need to be sorry I don't particularly favor grammar myself." He finishes with a smile and I literally sigh like a girl watching her favorite boy band. There's no hope left for me.

With my constant daydreaming I almost miss the bell causing me to be the last to walk out. "Where are you going after this?"

I turn around surprised that I'm actually being spoken to while we're alone. "Uh I'm not sure. I don't have to work and Tyler isn't in town so I might sit at home probably not since I don't want to be a third wheel. I will drive around or sit and eat somewhere."

"Great I'll join you."

"Uh what?"

"Lunch? I mean if you want to eat alone that's fine. I just thought you would want some company... a little conversation." Ian rises out of his seat and slides his hands into his pockets.

I can't help but carry my eyes over him again for probably the billionth time.

"I... Um... Are you sure? I thought that we... That you didn't... That this is strictly a teacher student relationship no matter who we know that connects us. I can assure you that teachers don't take their students out for lunch unless it's some field trip. I'm sure you already know that though Mr. Somerhalder."

"I'm sure, we are, it's a field trip then, and I do."

"Well then you know it's not a good idea but thank you for the offer." I give a small smile and walk out the classroom. With every step I take a feeling grows deeper in my stomach. I turn back around and step around the doorframe. "I'm in the mood for Italian."

I feel a little underdressed wearing a t-shirt and jeans in this fancy restaurant. I changed in my car before leaving and the whole time driving to the outskirts of San Antonio I knew this was wrong. I can't dwell on what I should've done it's way too late for that.

Not even seconds later Ian walks in behind me making the blonde hostess give her best smile and poked out chest. "Dining alone or is your wife coming?"

"Neither. I'm dining with my girlfriend." He nods his head in my direction making the blonde look at me again with pure hatred.

"Her?"

"What? Do you think I'd be interested in you? Not in the slightest but let's stop we're getting off topic. We'd prefer a table with a nice view." Ian finishes with a smile then puts his hand on the small of my back leading me in front of him. When we get to the table he pulls out my chair for me before sitting down himself.

I twiddle my thumbs in my lap then look out the window to the world rushing by. "You're very quiet." I simply nod my head still looking out the window. "That's not normal for you." I shake my head going back to look down at my hands. "Look at me."

I glance up briefly then completely lift my head. "Um sorry I haven't been all the way there since... Almost two weeks ago."

His eyebrows lift slightly, "What happened two weeks ago?"

"Nothing I can say."

"Why is that?"

"It's complicated. Anyways, major plans coming up? Thanksgiving plans?"

"Might sit around with a friend at home and I'm probably going to visit family for Thanksgiving."

"Hmm friend? Sounds like a booty call."

Ian's lips curve up slightly, "Should you really be questioning my sex life Tiara?"

"I was simply taking an educated guess from knowledge that I already possess on the subject."

"Is that right? Do you mind me asking who your teacher was that educated you in this 'subject'?"

"Let's just say he's a man that knows what he's doing."

"Hopefully he taught you well."

"He was very thorough... Covered every little thing possible."

"I take it you enjoyed it then?"

"Very much so Mr. Somerhalder we'll have to do it again sometime. Not with you I mean the other teacher."

"If given the opportunity you would truly do it again?"

"In a heartbeat."

By time we come back the sun is barely there and the parking lot is empty. The only sound is the gravel crackling beneath our footsteps and our soft breathing. "Thanks for lunch... And dinner." I lean back against my car door looking into his eyes that manage to sparkle with limited light.

"My pleasure. I won't be able to see you for a couple days so this was our last hoorah before Thanksgiving."

I nod then look down at my hands unsure of what to say only knowing what I don't want to say. I close my eyes tight smelling his cologne once the gravel has crackled a little more. Without even looking I know Ian is closer all because I've mastered the art of feeling him before seeing him. "Why haven't you left yet?" I murmur.

"You don't want me to that's why."

My eyes spring open and I look up to be caged in by his arms and his lips barely an inch away. "What makes you think that?"

"I don't want to leave either and if you really wanted me to leave I know you would've said it."

A lump forms in my throat as that tingle all over my skin is intensified. "I have to go pack we're leaving tonight."

"Oh okay well I shouldn't keep you any longer." Ian takes a step back, crosses his arms over his chest, and clenches his jaw slightly.

"I want y-" I cover my mouth to cut myself off then quickly get in my car and speed off.

I open the door and walk in to see Christian and Ana sitting on the couch. She looks up at me with guilt while he has his head in hands looking aggravated but soon finds my eyes. I throw my keys on the table giving them one last look before I shut the door behind me. As much as I love Ana I've reached my limit with all the awkward air whenever I enter the room but no one wants to give me an explanation. One thing I know for sure is that Christian pulled some strings so that she is able to do her work from here. Why he did that? I'm not totally sure.

Every time I walk into one of their moments Ana comes after me and Christian shuts down. If I say something it could hurt her feelings and I don't feel like hearing a lecture from him or see him get angry. I shake my head to rid myself of the complicated thoughts that are not mine to own then get up and start packing.

I soon come out with one large suitcase and a giant expensive purse Christian bought me saying every woman needs one. "Ready to go?" He asks putting his phone away.

"Yeah let me guess we're taking the jet?"

Christian nods and smiles like a little boy who gets to show off his toys. We all walk out together and I'm surprised to see that all of Ana's bags are with her. Maybe this is the end of whatever awkward situation is between us three.

Point of View: Anastasia Steele

I finish emailing Kate who I've neglected the whole time being here. It was never my intention to stay this long but it just happened. I glance up to see Christian already looking at me then I glance over at Tiara to see her engulfed in her music and typing away. "Christian you have to answer me eventually."

"Ana we have discussed this already."

"No we haven't. How many times can we keep going through the same motions and keep hiding stuff from Tiara. You said it yourself you have the best relationship with her because there is a clear line of communication and trust. How do you think she will feel when she finds out we have been lying to her? It's bad enough that we are both her friends and you're her guardian."

"There's nothing to tell there's nothing between us and nothing can happen."

I lean back and cross my legs, "So what's your reason for keeping me with you for two weeks?"

Christian shakes his head running his fingers through his hair, "What do you want me to say?"

"The truth! How you feel! It's not that difficult."

With a sigh he starts typing away again, "Find another man... Anyone but me."

I digress and decide to look out the window to the unbothered puffy white world that we are engulfed in. As much as I want to push I'm getting to my limit ready to leave all of this completely. Maybe I should find another man.

Review and all that good stuff! Tell me what you want to see and dont want to see! Next chapter will probably start off in Ana's point of view with half of the chapter being Christian and Ana drama while the other half is Tiara drama. I think everyone will like chapter 8:)
