I know, I know I am a horrible person! I cant believe I had you guys waiting this long. Ive been really busy with school but now I'm on break so updates will come on time for a little while. Please forgive me!
"Trust me I can tell. You looked like you wanted to push that little girlfriend of yours of her chair and me into your lap."
"Would you bet you life on that answer?" he said as he stood right in front of her face.
"Yea I would" she said seductively.
She could feel his breath on her lips as his infamous ring tone stared to play she turned her lip to his ear and whispered. "Right. On. Point."
Tyler couldn't help the small shiver that ran done his spine when her lips lightly grazed his ear. She was so close. He wanted to just grab her by the shoulders and pull her to him.
"You better go, I wouldn't want the search team she's going to send bombarding my room looking for you." She chuckled standing back in front of him.
"Yea, I better, but I'm no so sure I want to."
"Do you always get what you want?" she asked backing away.
"Not this time around," he said smirking while leaving the room.
He closed the door behind him thinking about the argument he had with Cindy and the once again almost kiss with Kay. He was finding fewer and fewer reasons for why he was staying with the Reid quoted "ball and chain".
--
"You nearly made out with Tyler the last night!" Kate nearly shrieked in excitement. She had told Kate and Sarah about what happened because she needed a distraction from the dreams she's been having lately. She has had the same dream for two weeks and she had it again last night.
"No I didn't" she said trying to keep the smile that was forming on her face. "I'm going to go get a soda I'll be right back.
Kate watched as she started to get up to avoid the question. "You can run but you can't hide, Danvers. I want details."
As she was walking across the Cafeteria Aaron Abbots eyes trailed her and he got up to follow.
"So I don't think we've officially meet." he said standing directly behind her.
"Your point being," She answered uninterested. She already knew all about him with Kate's mouth she heard about the whole school within the first day.
He chose to ignore her tone. He blocked her leaning one arm on the vending machine. "Then maybe we should go somewhere and get to know each other better." Kay wasn't lost on how he wanted to get to know her.
"Back off, Abbot" Kay heard from behind him. She looked to see who it was and there was Pogue looking at Aaron.
"What's it to you Par--."
But Aaron didn't even get to finish his line before Kay kneed him in the groin. She walked away without looking back. "What was that about?" she asked with irritation in her voice.
Pogue knew this wasn't going to be easy. Kate has been arguing with him for weeks to make up with Kay and at first he refused, rightfully so in his opinion. He had every right to be suspicious. Everyone was on edge after Chase, he was just looking out for his brothers. But he has noticed the changes she's made in Reid and the way Tyler has been smiling a lot more. Not to mention Kate said no sex until he apologizes.
He sighed, it wasn't only because of that. He had been walking from Kate's room last week and heard sobbing from behind a door. He assumed the person didn't know that their door was slightly open. He was going to keep going until he heard 'Don't hurt them' and then silence. That's where he found her curled up in a ball visibly shaking in her sleep. He didn't understand the force that was pulling him towards her but he found himself in her room at the corner of her bed waiting for her to calm down. She was still for almost 5 minutes so he got up to leave before she got up. Once he got off the bed he heard her scream bit this time Caleb's name was retched from her voice and she was shaking again. He decided that enough was enough and went to go wake her up but once he touched her shoulder she went still again and the tension was gone in an instant. He couldn't explain it, so he didn't try to. He stayed until the sun came up and quietly stepped out of the room.
"Just trying to make it up to you what I did it was stupid."
"Making it up how?"
"By protecting you from a creep like Abbot."
"As you can see I didn't need your help."
"Ahh but one day you'll need my help and I'll be there."
She laughed despite trying not to. "So you're like my protector or something?"
"Exactly," smiling brightly seeing that she was warming up to him
"So who's going to save you from me, because you're going to need somebody if you pull a stunt like you did again."
Pogue just laughed as he put an arm over her shoulder. "I'll duck and run; I'll just duck and run.
A couple of weeks later and it was already the start of the new semester so Kay had one more class added to her schedule Topics which absolutely sucked in her opinion especially when she found out it was with Caleb and since it's in alphabetical order she sat in the same table which once again sucked. The only high point was that Sarah was in there too, so she already knew who her partner would be for the semester.
She wanted to get to know Caleb she really did but after all the failed attempts she was just done. He would come around she was sure of it but if he didn't she guess nothing would have really changed she would still be the girl with no family but she would deal with it when it came. She didn't want to think about that now not when she's been so happy lately. She finally narrowed down her flavors of the week to Jake, Kyle, Adam, Josh, and Mark then maybe an alternate for the weekend. Then there was the once again almost kiss with Tyler. She knew he was going to kiss her but she couldn't let him do that. He would have felt guilty after and that's the last thing she wanted him to feel after he kissed her so she'll let him deal with his girlfriend problem.
She dragged her self to Topics with Adam who was already waiting by her locker.
When she got there Caleb was already at his desk his head on the table and a small but noticeable line of drool coming from his mouth. I looked at Sarah and mouthed "What's up with him" and she asked clearly amused.
Sarah said she would tell her after class so Kay took her seat next to Caleb. Class didn't start for the next 15 minutes so she started searching her bag for her I pod when she heard some murmuring she turned to see Caleb muttering something in his sleep. She started laughing until she saw his face turn from scared to angry. She started to get nervous he kept saying "Let her go", and "I will you nothing". She tried to wake him up but he wouldn't give. Finally the bell rang and he sprung awake. He looked around him like he didn't know where he was for a second. So Kay turned around like she didn't notice and then the teacher walked him.
"Okay class I'm going to be quite busy today so your assignment is to find out the most you can about the person next to you with the sheet that will be placed on your desk. And if you know the person, I guess this will be an easy assignment for you then. Now get to work."
Kay and Caleb looked at each other.
"Are you serious?" Kay spoke first.
"Shoot me." Caleb replied.
"I'll buy you the gun." she countered.
"I don't know if I can do this, I mean, why would I want to learn anything about my father's illegitimate kid?" Right as the words left his mouth he immediately regretted it he didn't mean to be so harsh he's just been having a rough time lately. It's been months since he found out about Kay but still hasn't gotten over the fact his dads cheated, let alone have another child.
"Nice," she said bitterly. "Let's just get this over with." she added.
"I'm sor--"
"Don't, why does everybody keep apologizing? If you meant it own up to it." she cut him off before turning away to look at the paper.
She looked over the questions:
Favorite book
Favorite color
Favorite food
All basic enough she thought but then she came to question 4 and they started getting personal
Favorite part of your childhood
Thing you cherish most
Something you do that nobody else you know does
One thing you wish for
She wrote her answers down on a piece of paper then handed the sheet to Caleb.
Caleb answered the questions and then they switched there papers.
Kay repeated the first question out loud.
Caleb's favorite book was the Great Gatsby.
And Kay's was Catcher in the Rye. Caleb was surprised by her choice and he showed it with a raised eyebrow.
"What, yeah, it's a bit hypocritical but you have to admit the world is full of phonies. Plus I like his smart remarks. They keep me entertained."
"Hmmm smart remarks remind you of anyone?"
"Bite me."
Caleb took the paper and read the next question and it went on till they hit number four: Favorite part of your childhood
Caleb's read: Mornings with my mom when I was younger.
Kay's read: Staying with my best friend till the morning.
Thing you cherish most
Caleb's read: My "brothers"
Kay's read: My baby blanket with my initials –
"Your baby blanket?" he questioned with a raised eyebrow.
"It's the one thing my mom actually gave me." she said defensively. "The one thing that mattered anyway." She muttered as an afterthought.
Something you do that nobody else you know does
They both laughed lightly at the fact they had the same answer then quickly stopped after noticing the other.
They write with their right hand but do everything else with there left.
"I guess we're not as unique as we thought." Caleb said.
"Guess not." She said lowly surprised they actually found something in common.
One thing you wish for
Caleb's read: Closure for my dad
Kay's read: A family
And with that the bell rang and class was over Kay sprinted out the room not wanting to deal with Caleb's gaze. She didn't need his questions she didn't want them.
She ran outside in the rain. She loved the rain ever since she was little. She closed her eyes dropped back her head letting the rain drop on her face.
She didn't feel the rain anymore so she opened her eyes and there stood Pogue with an umbrella over her head.
"What are you saving me from this time?" she asked amused.
"The rain," He answered.
"I love the rain."
"Well then I'm protecting you from your crazy antics of trying to catch pneumonia."
She laughed long and hard she needed this, needed to get away from the seriousness.
She was grateful to Pogue but not for protecting her from pneumonia but from protecting her from dealing with the reality of it all. The reality she just wasn't ready to piece through at the moment.
Okayyy this was the long awaited chapter. I hope you guys liked it! Review...
