Chapter 9: A broken heart

Scarlet fell flat onto her back as she failed the training course for the fifth time that day. "I'm gonna' flip thee fuck out if I don't finish this damn course!" she yelled.

"Hey, watch the language." Lloyd said, helping her up. "Now…Try again."

She sighed and ran for the course once again. When she came to the end, she took a deep breath and shouted: "NinjaGO!" she spun in a royal blue tornado on one foot, but she had a problem stopping. "Guys, I can't stop!" she yelled.

"Stop spinning!" Lloyd yelled back.

"I can't!"

"Stomp down one of your feet to stop it the tornado!" Jay shouted.

"No, Jay she'll hurt her-" Scarlet screamed in pain as she fell over, the tornado stopping "ankle…" Cole finished.

Lloyd immediately ran over to her. "Are you okay?" his worried blue eyes shot all over her body, checking for any injuries. She sat up, allowing her elbows to support her as she did. "I'm fine." She obviously lied, standing. She walked for a few seconds but winced with every single step. Suddenly two hands grabbed her waist and before she could say anything, she was riding on Lloyd's shoulder. "You must've sprained your ankle, you're going to bed." He said sternly.

"I'm fine, honest!"

"Scarlet…" Lloyd warned.

Scarlet sighed, slightly annoyed with her boyfriend, but happy that he cared. "Yeah, yeah, I'll go to bed." She gave in.

A few minutes later…

Scarlet sat in bed, with her arms folded as she sat up. Lloyd had been checking up on her every hour and she secretly enjoyed how much he loved her. He left after about thirty minutes of feeding her a bowl of soup like she was a baby. She smiled as he left the room and started to braid her hair out of boredom.

"What are you doing to your hair?" a voice asked, startling Scarlet. She looked up and relaxed when she saw it was just the black ninja, Cole. She smiled and let go of her hair. "I got bored so I decided to braid it."

He smiled back and sat next to her on her bed. "The braid thing isn't for you." He said, untying her hair for her. "You should try the swayed bangs." He said, pointing to his hair. "Way better."

Scarlet folded her arms and leaned back into her pillow, now smirking. "Either way, I'm gonna end up putting royal blue streaks in my hair."

"You can't be serious. Streaks aren't for you either."

"Well what do you suggest I do?"

Cole rubbed his chin in a joking way as he thought, making her laugh a bit. "Hm…I have made my decision." He smiled. "Absolutely nothing, you look pretty just the way you are now."

She hung her head down as she blushed. "Are you serious?" she laughed nervously. A loose strand of hair fell from the security behind her headband.

He reached forward and pushed the strand back, making her look up. "I'm serious."

They both stared at one another, blushing. At the same time they both leaned forward and their lips met in the now filled space between them. Neither participant enjoyed the kiss, to both it felt wrong, though she looked much older, there was a gap of seven years between them and she had a boyfriend that loved her and she loved back. It was just an impulse move, something that people did in the moment. A simple compliment could mess with someone's mind and make them think that they were attracted to someone who wasn't a normal candidate. "This isn't cool; this is Lloyd's girlfriend…" Cole thought.

"What am I doing? I love Lloyd not Cole!" Scarlet thought.

The two pulled apart at the same time with wide eyes. "Cole…We shouldn't have done that…" she said.

"I know, we can't tell Lloyd about this, it'll kill him."

She nodded. "Good, I won't tell him if you won't."

"Agreed," he nodded too.

"Too late." A shaky voice said as it stood in the doorway. It was Lloyd with tears running down his face at rapid speed and his fists clenched, combining two emotions; anger and sadness.

A/N: OMG! What will happen next? Will Lloyd beat the shit out of Cole? Will the relationship of Lloyd and Scarlet survive? Or will everyone explode from the suspense of waiting for the next chapter? Who the fuck knows? Okay, maybe I know but I am not telling; you'll have to wait. Punkrockgirl555 is out.
