Fallen In Love With My Enemy (26)

A Week since "IT" Happened

My swellings were healing and I still had to go to school. I told everybody that I'd got into a fight with my cousins friend. I had a whole lie before I even went to school. Rhonda wanted to go back and kick the girl who I was supposingly fighting ass. I felt so bad going to school. I tried hard to keep my head held high but that was the hardest of all. Acting happpy and trying to be ok when really you weren't. I could tell Jaylin wanted to say something to me about it when I caught his eye during class but I'd always look away to keep from bursting into tears right there. I hadn't seen Chris lately either and I was so happy. Friday, I finnally got the courage to approach Mike.

" Umm, Mike can we talk for a minute." I said eying his boys .They got the hint and left giving us curious looks.

" What's wrong?" he asked flatly but his eyes they weren't soft like when he talked to me they weren't even here they were someplace else. I just stared at him for a moment.

" What did you do?" I asked softly. He took a deep breath and crossed his hands over his chest.

" Not enough." he replied.

" What you mean Mike?" I asked.

" He still alive is what the hell I mean." he said. I bit my lip nervously.

" So you tried to kill him for me." I said shakily.

" Nah but I should've." he said shaking his head.

" No, I'm fine just a couple of bruises." I said feeling a chill ripple through my body.

" A couple of bruises Angela." he siad looking at me seriously.

" It was all my fought anyways so..." I said and he cut me off.

" That shit wasn't your fought." he said angrily.

" Mike I'm ok." I said.

" You a fuckin mess Angela." he said eying me. I looked down at the outfit I had on some sweats and tank top with a blue jean jacket on.

" Look, I know you care and all but I can handle it." I said tracing my foot on the floor.

" No, not this time. Its not over." he whispered in my ear and walked off. I wanted to ask him what he meant but I knew I didn't want to hear the response so I didn't anwer the question. a tear rolled down my cheek and I quickly wiped it and headed out to my car. i must have checked over many shoulder I don't know how many times. I didn't even no what for. I was just parinoid when I got to the car. I looked in. Jaylin was sitting down. I looked at him opened the door.

" You know you need to start locking your car door." he said when I got in.

" Yea, its a bad habit." I replied. I saw him nodd in aggreance out the corner of my eye.

" Is there something you want?" I asked looking over at him. I was already at a very emotional point and looking at him made me feel the attraction I felt towards him all over again.

" I already told you. Angela, I want you." he said grabbing my hand. I snatched it back and looked at him and he looked right back.

" Jaylin I'm not sure if I can trust anybody right now." I said.

" Well, we atleast just be enemies again. I don't like it like this between us." he said.

" Eniemes huh?" I asked.

" Yea enimes." he said then softly touhed my hand, "that love each other." he added. I cut my eyes at him and couldn't help but smirk.

" When did love becoome part of your dicitonary?" I asked.

" Since you became part of my life." he said seriously.I blushed.

" Really Jaylin?I have had alot on my mind lately and even gettin back to the old us is gone take time." I said.

"And?" he asked.

" And that means I don't need you finding a new girl then basically telling her I mean nothing to you."
