Moonlight (Chapter 3)

Chapter 3: Kiss

Chris had been following me all day. He was a nice guy, I really enjoyed hanging out with him. But, he kept inturupting Angel and I, always drawing the attention back to him, wich was very annoying. And apperantly Angel thought so too, because when ever we were talking in the hall before 5th period math, Chris came walking up babbling on about some concert he was going to, and Angel gave Chris the most fierce, warning look I'd ever seen in my life. I scared me almost to death. Everything on his beautiful face read danger.

Chris was so taken aback he began stuttering in horror. Wich was very strange considering Chris never stuttered.

I cleared my throat and gave Angel a what-in-the-world-is-wrong-with-you-look. Angel just shook his head at me and walked away. Chris smiled triuphantly. Oh, great, is Chris going to start chasing after me? And if he does, will Angel still consider it a possiblity to go out with me?

Clearly upset, I walked away from Chris, and in the opposite way Angel had walked in. What was Angel's problem? That was very....hurtful, that he walked away like that. I mean Chris was horrofied at him, (though he might have been playing up that reaction.....) why would that be a problem for me to stick up for Chris? I mean JEEZ!

I felt a tear roll down my cheek. Oh, joy! Now I'm crying!? That's just asking for trouble. I quikly wiped away the tear, and started jogging to my math class, which if I didn't hurry I was going to be late to.

I passed Angel's dak blue locker, and walked into the class walked pass Angel and my normal seat at his side, and to the very back. Angel looked confused, but I didn't care, he hurt my feelings and I wasn't going to be all fine and dandy about it. I sat my books down on the desk, sat down, and sighed. I picked up my notebook and began drawing absent-mindedly. I heard a loud thump next to me, I looked up and saw that Angel was sitting next to me. I glared at him, and waved him away. I went back to my drawing, when he said, "I'm sorry Zarah. That was very rude of me.I saw you....crying....and I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. It had nothing to do with you." Oh, he saw me crying? It had nothing to do with me? Ugh. Whatever.

"Whatever Angel. Just...just leave me alone right now. I don't want to talk to you." I said in a voice so empty of emotion and reserved. He looked so exasperated I almost giggled.

Ugh, curse you Angel, you and your irrestable charm! Grr!

"Please Zarah? Please, please, please, forgive me?!" Angel pleaded. This was pretty funny.

I glanced up at him smiled and said, "I forgive you, but just leave me alone for right now, okay? Just for a little bit. 'Kay?"

"Mmhmm." Was all he said and walked to the other desk, acrossed the asile,sat his stuff down on the floor, gracefully sat down.

Chris walked in and sat in front of me. He turned around to stare at me.

"Take a picture, Chris, it'll last longer." I grumbled loudly. Angel started snickering. I shot him a fierce look, and tuned away, back to my drawing.

"What's your deal, Zar?" Zar was my new nick-name, that everyone called me. Angel had started calling me that.

"You two, you and Angel, why are you always sniping at each other. It's very annoying. I like hanging out with  both of you, but if keep fighting and sniping, I won't hang out with either one of you. Whatever ya'll's problem is work it out!" I replaid.

And Mr. Wells walked in telling us to get our books out,turn to 135, and get out our homework. I sighed again.

I didn't talk to Angel 'till after school got out. I saw him once again surronded by girl's. They were all over him. Atleast one part of their body was touching him. Although he was far from where I was standing, I was still within hear shot. "Girls I'm very flattered. But, I would perfer if we just stayed fiends." And walked away towards me, but when he got close to me, he past me. I turned around and followed him. Once I reached him I placed my pale, black-nailed, hand on the top of his back. He stopped walking and turned around. He had a wary expression. I giggled at his face. He cocked his head to the side, andsmiled, radiantly. I could hear my heart pounding and quicking. I reached for his hand, grabbed it, and led him around the nearest pod (which strangely happened to be the gym).

"I'm sorry I hurt your feelings Zar. That's the last thing I want to do."

"It's okay. Well, it's not, but I forgive you." I sighed.

"Ugh. I can't stand it any more."

Angel looked confused, and again, cocked his head to the side. I streached up on my tip-toes and kissed him. I placed my hands around his neck. And I pulled away, and ran.

I ran away to the parking-lot,and into my truck. I started up the engine, and pulled out. And I was home-free.

Sorry it took me so long to get Chapter 3 up!
