~Chapter 13~
-Robert-
After classes were over, I immediately went to my sisters room. Ive been avoiding Kayla since after Christmas and I know I have to talk to her. I also know my sister is the slowest person getting out of the actual school, so I have at least a few good minutes. I walk in, and Kayla's sitting on her bed, deeply interested in her laptop
"Robert." She greets, still looking at her computer "haven't seen you around much."
"Yes, I have." I argue
"You know what I mean." She replies
"Your the one who did it." I point out
"And your the one who probably has to tell your sister." She looks up at me
"No way." I look at her like she's crazy. Oh wait, she is.
"Tell me what?" Sarah walks in
"Oh..." Kayla whispers
"Kayla kissed me!" I blurt out
Sarah's mouth drops open
"He kissed back!" She defends
"You two... Like each other?" She asks
"Yes." Kayla says quickly "No."
"Maybe?" I finish
"Wait... Are you like... An item?" She asks
"No." I say, confidently "at least not at the moment..."
"The moment?" Sarah questions
"It's complicated." Kayla concludes
"Yeah, I'd say so." Sarah confirms "so now, I'm going to give you til dinner to make a desicison, then I'd better hear it." She walks out
"Yes or no?" Kayla asks
Dinner. One word. A million fears. For 15 minutes, Silence. Then the new kid, Jake, finally speaks up.
"Is it always this quiet?" He asks
"No, never." Sarah looks at us
"Meandkaylaaredating." I rush out
Out of the corner of my eye, I see Poppy almost choke on her food, I look at AJ across the table, he's looking at it's food in disgust, I have a feeling he's in a mood for murder.
I look and see Oliver dying of laughter "Good one, buddy!"
"I don't think it was a joke..." Scarlett looks
"But, it's Kayla. The Kayla Lewis. Kayla-CatWalkModel-FashionIcon-PrettiesGirlInSchool-Lewis." Oliver looks between us "Who's family includes an Oscar Winning brother. A fashion designer who owns half the closet of every teenage girl mom. And a dad who wakes up every day to sell old, overpriced crap to his fellow billionaires..." His voices dies out "then we have Robert..."
"Gee, thanks!" I roll my eyes
"You ask a girl what she wants, she'll say a Prada purse. But deep down, she just really wants a Chuck Bass of her own." Kayla whispers
"But Kayla... This isn't Gossip Girl. Robert is not a teenage billionaire. And you are not Blair Waldorf..." Lacy explains "look, I'll be supportive, I think everyone will. I just don't think it will end will..."
"I just still can't over the fact that you two are actually happening right now." Oliver starts to laugh
"Okay, we get it Chuckles." AJ looks at Oliver "You didn't think that the a Witch and the Backstabber could ever get together."
"AJ..." Kayla look at him "really?"
"Save it." AJ looks at Kayla, I start to open my mouth "Both of you." He stands up, looks around for a minute then leaves the room
And just like that, were back to silence
