"What are you doing?"
Xavier got up and helped me up as well. All the excitement from that kiss deceased and turned to fear, but I didn't see anything in Xavier's eyes.
I recognized the man as the one in my house the other day. Wait, he was Xavier's father?
"What are you doing?" Xavier asked back in a monotone.
He pointed to my house. "Visiting an old friend."
"Then go," Xavier said, coldly.
"Xavier-"
"GO!"
The man- Xavier's father- looked a bit shocked, but managed to make his way inside my house.
Xavier turned to me, his expression completely changed.
"I-I have to tell you something, Trinity," he said.
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. I waited for a response in deep breathing myself, but had nothing to say.
"We can't do this anymore," he said with a mixture of depression and anger on his face. Was he mad at me? "I can't do this anymore. We can't be in this emotional battle, and we can't keep feeling like this. You can't love me, and I can't love you. This..." he took a breath. "This can't happen anymore." He started to leave, but then turned around. "I only came here to tell you that. Don't follow me and don't talk to me anymore. I'm sorry."
And with that, he left.
I didn't say anything else the rest of the day. Just went up to my room and sat on my bed, thinking.
I felt something, but I didn't know what. Heartbroken? Happiness? Nowadays, I really can't tell the difference.
I thought about what happened earlier with Xavier, trying to determine whether I was remembering correctly or not. There was a knock on my door. My dad entered. I really didn't want to talk.
"Trinity?" he said, closing the door behind him. "What happened today?"
I shrugged, because I really didn't know. I kissed Xavier, then he told me not to talk to him anymore.
"Pepito, my friend who came over today, told me what he saw. Do you want to talk about it?"
I shook my head.
"Are you coming down for dinner?"
I shook my head again, slowly.
"Alright." My dad left. As soon as the door shut, I smacked a pillow onto my face and screamed into it. I was sure my dad could hear me, but he didn't come back in.
I changed the sign in my window. "Today is heartbroken".
A week later I sat next to Andre on the bus. I felt like I was in kindergarten again when I first approached him.
"What's up, Casil?" he asked me. "You window sign has been 'Today is Heartbroken' for a week now. Did something happen with you and Xavier?"
I didn't answer.
"Of course something happened," said Naomi, popping up from behind us. "She rarely talks, she doesn't sit with the guy anymore, and she never even looks at him." She shook her head. "Boys are so dumb." She looked at Andre. "Andre, switch seats with me."
"Why?"
"You want a reason?" She made a fist. "I've been working out this weekend. Is that a good enough reason for you?"
Andre quickly got up and Naomi took his place.
"Look," she said to me, putting an arm over my shoulder. "Boys are dumb asses. I hate to say it, but it's true. They date a girl for a week, tell them their in love, then break their hearts."
I looked at her. "I never even went out with him."
"Ah, yes, but you kissed him."
I smiled a bit. "Twice."
Her eyes went wide. "You did not."
My smile turned into a chuckle. "Oh, but I did. I regret it, but I did."
"And when was this?"
I shrugged. "Last week."
"So what happened?"
"I kissed him, then he told me to never talk to him again." I shrugged.
Andre stood up. "So that explains the heartbroken crap."
Naomi laughed. "Trin, you have it bad." She patted my shoulder.
I perked up a bit that day. Except in LA, when I glanced out of the corner of my eye and saw Xavier, sitting there and glaring at the board. I pinched myself every time I looked.
I got a lot of red marks that day.
It's short, and sad. But it gets sadder. (cries with thoughts about what's going to happen)
