After several minutes of standing there in silence Eddie grabs my hands and pushes me away, then leaves the room with Kt follow close behind him. From the bedroom Fabian and I could hear everything Eddie was telling Kt. And from the sounds of it he was mad maybe even furies that Kt hadn't told him about the kiss. And it made me feel horrible for kissing both him and Fabian. So I said goodnight to Fabian and walked out of the room. On the way up to my room I passed my Eddie and Kt and said, "sweet dreams."
…
I felt it, I know I shouldn't have felt it but I did. What am I going to do? If it happens again I wont be able to take it. The moment when my lips touched him, that's when I felt it. I don't think I'll be able to live through it again. It's eating away inside of me, why do I feel so dead inside? When I shouldn't be feeling anything at all. But he just makes me feel so alive. And I loved it.
…
This morning when I woke up the feelings were worse. I didn't want to go through with the plan anymore, but I had to. What made it worse was the fact that Fabian and I were going to have to tell Frobisher of our progress. And were had to get Denby in on the plan. Breakfast was as boring as ever Joy, Mara, and Willow thinking of new ways to get even with Jerome. Well Jerome and Alfie talked about nothing that interested me. All the while I'm just seating there waiting for Fabian to finish his breakfast. I haven't seen Kt or Eddie since last night; I'm guessing they left early this morning. Probable trying to avoid me, I guess? Denby was here today so we didn't have to worry about a sub problem. She was talking about how we were starting a group projects today. And before people could pick their partners, she said she had already paired us off into groups of two. By the time she got to me there wasn't many students left. "Patricia, I paired you with…Eddie," then suddenly I hear. "BUT I WANTED TO BE PATRICIA'S PARTNER!" I turn to see Fabian standing up, all Denby has to say to that is "well that's to back your partner is Kt." "But why can't I be with Patricia?" "Fabian if I let you pick your partner then I'll have to let everyone else pick their own partners." "I don't care about the others," Denby just looks at him for a second then says, "Fabian may I speak to you and Patricia outside for a moment."
…
Fabian and I walk out the door with Denby right behind us, "alright Fabian what's this all about?" "Why are you messing up our plan of pretending to date to make Eddie angry with Robert?" Denby looks at him for a second "you have a plan that I didn't know about." "We were supposed to tell you to-night at the meeting." "Well then this is how its going to work, we're going to call of your plan and go with mine first. I can't change the student's pairings now that I've announced it to the class." Fabian's eyes turned red for an instant then changed back. "All right but we will talk more about this at the meeting tonight," then he walked back to class. Denby walks in and announces to the class that the last pairing would be Fabian and Kt, their project would revolve around the word hate. And since Fabian had interrupted her when she announced Eddie and mine she informed us that our project would be the word love, great that's all I needed Eddie the word love and me all in the same sentence.
…
After a while Denby had us break off in to our groups, Eddie and I we're in the back in the corner. After a while Eddie started talking to me, really talking to me. And I didn't like it, not one bit. "Patricia I love you," he whispered to me. I just looked at him and told him I don't care. "I know that's not true I can tell that you miss me, can't you give me a chance to show you that it can work. Even if you are a sinner I still want to be with you, I still love you and I want to…" "Shut up, I don't want to hear this," he took a step towards me. "But I want to help you, I miss you so much, I lov…" "I said shut up and leave me alone," I slapped him across the face. I guess I most have hit him pretty hard cause the whole class had turned to stare at us. I turn and leave the room and run into the restroom to wet my face.
…
After Patricia left the room Denby asked me to follow her and take her, her bags and said we didn't have to go back to class. Well I was looking for her I heard noises coming from the girls' bathroom. When I peaked in to the restroom I saw her arguing with herself…about me
