Chapter 2: 10 years ago?

I saw her blush and walked back to me. She held the hem of my shirt and pulled it off me. She gaped at my muscular chest. I grinned. She blushed harder smiling to herself. "Please, may I touched your skin to make sure there is no injuries?" I chuckled slightly nodding my head. She touched my abs first, making me shiver. I closed my eyes stopping her.

"I need to lean on something first…" she giggled and I scooted toward the headboard. "There…"I said waiting for her to crawl towards me.

"Ok, I need to check your back please…" she said. I turned around she pressed her palms on my back making me groan. It hurts but there's no way I'm gonna admit it to her! However, she heard my groan and pressed harder. I roared softly.

"Stop that!" I said. She giggled.

"I guess I found my first injury." She said taking the first aid kit. I sighed. I totally lost it in front of a girl. She came back to the spot rubbing some cream onto my back. I moaned feeling her touch. She was relaxing me. "You're so tense, Richard…" she whispered into my ear making me shiver.

"I've been stressed since I moved here…" I said frowning. She nodded her head and massaged my back. I moaned louder. She giggled.

"You seem to enjoy my touch…yes?" I froze and blushed.

"Well….ummm….. I'm just never been massage like this before… and umm…" she giggled.

"Whatever, Richard Grayson!" she replied continuing her little massage. I sunk into it and lay my head on my soft pillow. I closed my eyes wanting to just sleep in front of her. I nearly did, until she told me to lie on my back. I sighed and did as told. Now she was touching my chest, my abs, and my… I squeezed my eyes shut trying my best not to scream. There she was touching my sensitive spot. 'Easy, Dick…' I told myself.

"Are you ok?" her voice rang clear in my head. I opened my eyes.

"Huh?" I knew I sounded stupid. She sighed.

"Are you ok?" she asked again. I gulped hard and rubbed my head.

"Yeah…" I said nervously. She didn't fall for it.

"Cut the crap, Richard." She said seriously. "I know I maybe shy, but I know how to be seriously pissed at liars." I sighed.

"Ok ok…" I said rolling my eyes. "I just hate people touching my umm…" she blushed.

"Oh I see…" she got off the bed and handed me a clean shirt on my chair. I took it and wore it. I love it when I make her blush. She's adorable when she…whoa, cut the crap Dickhead! Are you saying you… No I'm not! Ok whatever, just act cool.

I watched her open the door and followed her out. "Where are we going?" I asked. She looked at me.

"I thought we were going to meet my friends?" I nodded.

"I knew that…" she stopped walking and I grinned. I too stopped and turned to look at her.

"Don't you have class?" I asked. She sighed.

"It's 7, Richard." I gaped.

"Was I out that long?" she gave me a "duh" look. I rubbed the back of my head.

"Anyways, you wanna meet them or not?" I leaned on the nearby wall looking down. Curse I forgot to bring my hat and shades.

"What's the point? They'll make fun of me like everyone else. I hate to be bullied you know…" she sighed and walked up to me. She took hold of my hands and dragged me towards a far corner.

"They are nice people, Richard…" she said stopping in front of a door.

"We meet in this every night. They should be here." I nodded simply as she opened the door. I heard laughter and….is that alcohol?

"Hey yo, KORI!" I heard someone shout. I immediately blocked my view of them with the help of the door. Kori however wasn't all that kind. Before she pulled me in, she whispered… "In school times I am shy and nice, but here, I'm hyper and bad. Remember that." I nodded. She smiled.

"Victor!" she shouted. I gulped. The room suddenly became quiet as they saw me. I knew what would happen next.

"Well, I guess I made an impression." I said and smiled at everyone. "Sorry to bother your little alcoholic party." I ran out of the room ignoring the shouts from Kori. I need to rest, I need to punch something, I need to cry. My life was a living hell.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I ran to the riverside near the school. Man, this school has so many things! No wonder why it's popular. My mind was playing all the sad memories I had these past few months. My heart was crying but not me. I so wanted to cry but since I'm trained not to show emotions, it's very hard for me to do so. I screamed not caring if I wasn't acting as myself.

"SOMEONE KILL ME NOW!" I begged. I was making funny sobbing sounds but not a single tear came out.

Kori was following my all the time. She heard my scream. Kori saw me kneeling down and punching the grass. I think I upset her because she came to me and slapped me.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" she asked. I frowned at her and rubbed the spot she slapped me. It was burning red. My eyes were red but tear free. I looked at her in a way that scares the hell out of people. She flinched and stepped back slightly.

"Kori. Everyone hates me. Everyone is against me. Everyone wants to me to leave, so why don't I?" she sighed.

"Richard, this is only the first day of school for you and you are already saying everyone hates you? Sure they do hate you, but they don't know the real you yet. Give them a chance, like I did." I closed my eyes and faced the ground. She cupped it and brought my eyes to meet hers. They were beautiful.

"Trust me. My friends would like you, like I did 10 years ago." I looked at her confused. She gasped and looked away.

"I meant 10 hours ago…" somehow my heart didn't agree with her.

"10 years?" I asked again stepping closer to her. She looked away scared. What did I do? "Kori?" I asked again frowning. She turned to look at me with teary eyes.

"I said something wrong that's all…" she said smiling weakly. I didn't buy it.

"Cut the crap, Kori. I know I maybe a crybaby here, but I know how to be angry at liars…" I said remembering everything she told me during her little massage. Her tears fell from her cheek.

"You forgot…I don't want to bring it up…" she then pushed me away running back towards the building. I chased after her not letting her get away with it. What did I forget that happened 10 years ago? What did I do when I was 7? I don't know, but I'm going to find out!
