"ARRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Sally yelled as the plate she threw hit the wall and smashed into tiny peices. Adrian sat on Sallys bed waiting for her to cool off, watching a selection of objects get catapulted. Sally picked up her alarm clock and threw it as hard as she could. Out of breath, she flopped to the bed.
"I think we should give Chris a little call now, don't you?" Adrian smiled sarcastically, handing the phone to her. Sally held the phone to her ear after dialling. It rang. After a few seconds Chris answered.
"Hey." He answered quitly.
"What did you think you where doing?" She yelled.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking." He replied calmly.
"You must have been thinking something!" Sally answered him sarcastically. "You don't *accidentally* snog another girl."
"It wasn't my fault." He lied. "I thought she was you."
"She was flipping blonde, Chris."
"Hmmm, right." Chris couldn't think of a reasonable explaination when the truth was because she liked him and she had nice tits. "She was just..... very nice....." He tried to be nice.
"Yeah, ok, she was very nice. Now I don't mind that you kissed her!" She gave her phone the finger and cut him off.
Earlier that day, Sally had walked into their classroom at lunch to find Chris in the middle of the room locking lips with a girl she had never seen before. She had long curly bleached blonde hair, blue eyes and she was stick thin. Her left eye wasn't as pretty anymore, now it had a big black bruise around it, to match the one around Chris' right eye. Yes, Sally had hit them both, incredibly hard. She had then avoided them for the rest of the day and ran home to call Adrian and tell her all about it. Sally was used to cheating but not being cheated on, it was not nice. Well, at least she knew how he felt now!
Chris was laying on his bed looking at the roof. Joel was sat crossed legged on the floor next to him. "What did you do to make Sally hit you?" Joel hadn't seen or heard.
"Well, nothing!" He continued to hold his stare at the ceiling.
"You must have done something, she wouldn't just hit you?"
"Well, I was just standing with Jodie and...." Joel stopped him talking before he could finish.
"Jodie?" He repeated. "You where just STANDING with Jodie." He asked.
"Well,...... yeah."
"You don't just STAND with Jodie. She's a tart,.... oh my god." Joel smirked. "You freaking kissed her?" He clicked his fingers. "You did, didn't you?" Chris sighed.
"Yeah." He was disappointed in himself. "Yeah, I did." He rolled his eyes. It was lucky Joel was on the floor, he would never admit it but tears began streaming down Chris' face. "I don't want to lose Sal." He sniffed, trying his best to keep his crying a secret. He really didn't want to lose her but he knew she was down.
Sally thought of ways she could get revenge on Chris. How she could teach him a lesson. Adrian thought payback would be a bad idea, surely she had done enough to make payback already with Joel. Sally still wanted to get him! She had to get him where it hurt, she needed a really harsh way of showing him what was right. She had a great idea. "I GOT IT!" She yelled. "Phone." She comanded to Adrian who picked up the phone and threw it to her. She caught it gracefully and twittered through her phonebook. "Crap." She threw her phone back down. "I'm going to have to be more sneaky." She smiled.
Adrian knocked the door. Chris answered and she quickley pulled him outside and across the road. This was the perfect distraction. Sally checked the coast was clear and ran through the open door. She ran upstairs and grabbed the handle of his room and pulled it open with a smile. "WAH!" She let out a shocked scream. Joel was lying on the floor.
"What the..?" He asked, puzzled. She shook her head, walked across the room and began rummaging through Chris' stuff. "What are you doing?" Joel asked.
"Well, as I'm sure you already know, Chris has found a lovely piece of stuff on the side, so I'm going to do the same. All I need is his phone to get one of his mates numbers, unless of course, you would like another go?" She turned and paused what she was doing momenterrily to flash a crooked smile at Joel. He stood up, smiled back, walked to her, slid his arms around her back all in one smooth movement. She hummed an approving sound and lent to kiss him but he stopped her and let go of her. "What's wrong?" She asked, confused and angrily awaiting a kiss.
"Crap." He took a step back. "Laurri."
"No,.... Sally." She pecked his lips. "I'm not Laurri!"
"No. I ment, what about Laurri?" He closed his eyes and sighed.
"Shit." She fell back to her flat feet, no longer on tip-toes to reach his lips. "Yeah." She nodded.
"I really would love to help you get revenge on my best friend, I really would but I don't know....." He opened his eyes. Oh fuck it. He had already let her peck him, why not? She pushed into him and he couldn't resist it. Laurri was on holiday in New Zeland, she'd never know. He wrapped his arms around her neck and backed her into the wall. Chris walked in, followed by Adrian. They stopped talking and their jaws dropped.
Joel sat beside Sally on Chris' bed. They where looking at the floor, in shame. "I mean, how could you?" Chris yelled, he was pacing. They looked at eachother secretly and smiled, laughing at his pathetic attempt at a telling off. "Can't you just get over it. Get over it, or get toghether, but stop involving me and Laurri. She's going to hear about this by the way."
"Oh no. Please, please, please don't tell her." Joel fell to the floor and begged. "She'll finish with me. I can't... I can't... I need her." Chris nodded. He understood. As much as he was angry, devistated, at Sally, he knew he needed her.
"I suppose I can let you off." He hit him around the back of the head with a newspaper. "But don't do it again." He ordered. Joel nodded, got up, beconned Adrian to join him and they left. There was silence between them.
Chris eventually decided that he ought to speak. "So. What do you think you deserve for this?" He asked her.
"Well...." She paused as she realised what a silly question it was. "I guess, you could forget it ever hapened. I get nothing." She smiled. It might work. He let out a pathetic *yeah right* laugh.
"Oh no." He shook his head and a seductive, yet sadistic look appeared on his face. "Not this time." He tilted his head. "I want you to prove to me,... that you still want me." He winked. She rose to her feet and took slow steps towards him. She only stopped when she was just a few millimetres from Chris' body. She lifted her head and he kept a gaze on her, she slowly reached her arms to the side and up to his face where she grabbed his face, fiercly pushing her lips to his. Her left hand grabbed his hair, careful not to hurt him. The other moved slowly down his back and cheekily rested on his arse. He accepted this, showing it by kissing her back just as passionately, and if it was possible, even more violently than she was. His hands grabbed her arms and held her tight. This was amazing, but it wasn't quite good enough to prove she wanted him.
Sally stroked Chris' leg as she kissed him, passionately, but not the same as before. This was sweet and gentle. She had sent him into a state of extacy where he could barely rmember everything. 1.Kiss 2.Breathe. It was hard for him, thinking about how much pleasure he was currently experiancing. He felt her slowly press her hand further and further up his leg untill his eyes opened wide to feel quite where her hand was now rested. She felt him smile and giggle slightly at this thought. His eyebrows raised for a while in astonnishment to quite what she was doing as he felt her other hand get lower and lower down his back, once again forcing a tight grip on his ass. She continued to kiss him, just as skillfully as before, which must have required a lot of concentration and, what can only be described as hand, LIP co-ordination! Slowly, she pulled her ice cold lips from his, leaving a slight smile in its place. Sally kissed his neck and traced his jaw line with her nose. She gently bought her hands off his body and found his hands, she had been in controll, untill now. Chris reversed the roles and he took her hands in his. Moving his neck as she kissed it, he bought his lips to her ear. "I love you." He breathed it and she smelt his warm breath surround her ear and face. She repeated the words to him, but speaking it into his chest, face pushed into him she sat. He stroked her hair. "I'm sorry." She whispered, her voice slightly muffled. He nodded.
Meanwhile, Laurri was having the same kind of fun in New Zeland. She smiled as realised this was the perfect way to get back at Joel. She smiled evily as Elliot let her go. Great, she thought to herself. The crooked smile became contageous as Elliot mirrored it, he knew all about Joel, he smiled at the thought. "Should we get back at Joel again?" He asked, holding his hand out. She nodded, took his hand and he pinned her to the wall, kissing her gently. She forced her hands through his short black hair, holding his face to hers. He felt a smile on her lips as he pressed into them. She wondered what Joel was doing at that moment.
Joel was on the phone to Sally. "I can't stop, Sal." His tone was needy and persistant.
"I know just what you mean." She sighed. "I keep thinking about you, too."
"What can we do about it?" Joel smelt his shirt and smiled slightly as he reconised the scent of Sally.
"Well, I don't want to hurt Chris." She frowned to herself. "But..." Joel's eyes widened. He liked *but*. "I guess, if he didn't find out."
"We could see each other?" He interrupted before she could finnish.
"Yeah." She bit her bottom lip at the risk of Chris finding out. "Seven?"
"Seven." Joel confirmed. "Can't wait." He smiled and hung up, flopping onto his bed. He loved Laurri. My god, he loved Laurri. But.... then there was Sally. Sally was amazing for Joel. She healed him when Laurri had cut him, he wanted what he couldn't have. Oh well, tonight would be the last time, he was sure of it.
Sally was lying upside down off a swing, her hair touching the ground. She sat up and shook her head, asif to snap out of a trance when she heard Joel call her name. He ran to her and she stood up, stepping into his arms. He held her tight and took a deep breath in, smelling her hair. She rested her head against his neck, clinging to him with a smile. He took her hand and led her across the park and into a field behind it. It was dark now and the stars shone brightly in the sky above them, he sat with her in the middle of the field, looking up toward them. He stretched his arm behind her and rested it on her opposite shoulder. She turned to him slightly and slid both arms around him, holding him close to her. He lent down and brushed her lips with his. She closed her eyes and concentrated deeply on him, he used his other hand to cup her face. "Sally." He breathed as he tilted his head a little, to angle his kiss. He tasted sweet and she couldn't help but kiss him back. He let go of her face and moved his hands to her hips, she put both hands on his shoulders. They're kiss became more intense every second, he forced her backwards a little, making her fall back, they're lips never parting. She was forced to lye down by Joel's fierce embrace. He lay her down gently and put his hands on either side of her, propping himself only a few centimetres away from her body.
"Oh my god, Joel." She breathed in shock. He smiled in victory, Sally's phone rang.
"Ignore it." Joel ordered between kisses. She agreed and kissed him again, but then fumbling in her pocket for her phone.
"If I don't answer, it'll look suspitious." She hissed. Joel nodded and stopped kissing her, leaning back over to the origional place he had been sitting. "Hello?" She sounded impatient.
"Hi, err, Sal?" It was Chris.
"Shit" She whispered to Joel, her hand over the mouthpiece. "Chris" She pointed at the phone. "What is it Chris?"
"Yeah. Errm,.. Do you want to hang out?" Sally slapped her palm to her forehead.
"Great." She muttered sarcastically. "Not right now, Chris." She was imaptient, she had only one thing on her mind right now. It was not Chris.
"Oh." He sounded put out. "Ok." There was a pause of silence. "Bye Sal." She cut him off and lept back to Joel. He kissed her unenthusiasticly. She looked at him puzzled and kissed hm again, with feeling. He still barely retaliated.
"Joel?" She had never had a boring kiss with Joel before.
"I'm sorry, Sally." He shook his head, putting his hand to her face, gently caressing her. "I don't think I can do this." He moved his face closer to hers. "Chris is my best friend." He kissed her cheek. "Laurri is my girlfriend." He kissed the space between her cheek and lips. "But... then theres you." He whispered, his tone changing from apologetic to needy. He kissed her full on the lips but she stopped him this time.
"You're, right Joel."
"No. No I'm not." He smiled, kissing her again.
"JOEL. No. I love Chris, I'm sorry, and I know you love Laurri." She held him tight, and he held her. "I don't think we can do this to them." She shook her head. "Again." She added. He let her go. She tried to smile at him hopefully, but couldn't smile at the fact she would never be with Joel again. He nodded.
"Okay." Sally was about to stand up to leave when Joel stopped her. "But, please....." He took her hand and pulled her back to the floor. "One last kiss? Just to make it an official last kiss." Sally didn't hesitate. She threw her arms around his neck and forced her lips to his, he took her and made sure it would be a kiss to remember. All too soon it was over. "Bye Sally." He waved as he walked away, leaving her breathless on the ground. This would take a little getting over. She took out her phone.
"Chris? Yeah. I changed my mind."
Joel walked home in the dark on his own. Every now and then a streetlight would light his path, making his shiney black shoes glisten. His eyes where on the floor, knowing that was the last time he would kiss Sally made him sad, but the thought of losing Laurri and Chris made him equally as sad. He was cold, he had given his jumper to Sally earlier but he was fine. The cold only helped forget Sally. Laurri would be home soon, he couldn't wait! He hoped that whatever happened, she never found out about this.
"Hey. Chris." Sally walked to Chris and hugged him. He hugged her back, but with a puzzled look upon his face.
"No kiss?" He sounded concerned. She laughed slightly and kissed his cheek. He very obviously cleared his throught and pointed to his lips. Sally sighed and raised to her tiptoes to peck his lips. "Pathetic." He muttered under his breath.
"For god sakes." She chattered as she spun back round to face him, used his shoulders to lift her onto the balls of her feet and stuck her tongue into his mouth. He laughed as he grabbed her, kissing her violently. She left him, and brushed herself down. "There." She stated and smiled wide. Her point proven. She began to walk across the park, Chris ran to catch up with her.
"Wow." He laughed. She smiled smugly. "You have a strange taste on your lips tonight." He frowned. "A sweet taste." He confirmed, kissing her again to see. "What have you been doing Sally?" He sounded angry.
"Nothing." She answered too fast.
"Yes you have. What could possibly change the taste on your lips?" He asked himself. "Oh my god." He looked even angrier. "You kissed Joel again didn't you?" He took a step back. She shook her head.
"No, no I didn't."
"You did." He confirmed, noticing she had his favourite coat on. "I don't know what to say." He spun and fell to the floor. "You know how strongly I feel about you, Sally. How could you possibly do this to me?"
"I'm so unbelievably sorry, Chris. He just feels.... special." She frowned at her choice of words. "Not that you're not special." She corrected. "Joel is..... soft and sweet but strong!" She sat by him.
"He's my best friend Sally. He has a girlfriend. What where you doing?"
"Nothing really. I just kissed him." She kept her eyes on the floor.
"Once?" He questioned. He needed to know.
"Well....." there had been numerous kisses, she didn't know what to say."Not exactly"
"How many, Sally?" He was very concerned. "I need to know." He demanded.
"Well. I don't know." There had been too many times. "I'm so sorry." He shook his head in dissapointment. He stood up and began to walk away. Sally ran after him. "CHRIS." She yelled. He didn't retaliate. "I know this is hard to believe, right now." She had to jog to keep up with him. "but I love you more han anything in the whole world. More than Joel, more than my family." She stood infront of him to stop him. "I love you" she yelled. He did stop. "I love you." She whispered this time as she dropped her head to the floor and let herself fall into his chest. He sighed and wrapped his arms around her back. He had to give in.
Laurri slammed her suitcase down on her bed at home and picked up her phone. "Hello Joel." She used her receptionist voice. "I'm home." She smiled. He didn't sound very happy.
"Kay." He mumbled. "Do you want me to come over?" He was quiet and unenthusiastic.
"Great." She hung up the phone and smiled evilly, remembering Elliot. She would tell him about Elliot if he ever cheated again. Little did she know, he already had. She opened her case and took out the neatly packed shoes and placed them carefully under her bed. Very soon, the doorbell rang. She ran down the stairs and answered it. Joel just walked straight past her, into her house and up the stairs.
"Hi." He mumbled on his way past. She caught up with him in her room. "How was it?" He hadn't even hugged her.
"I'll tell you in a minute, first, wheres my hug?????" She stamped her foot. He nodded his head, stood up and hugged her. "Better. What about a kiss?" She grabbed his head and tried to kiss him, he just turned away. He wasn't in the mood to kiss anyone right now. If he didn't kiss her then she would get suspitious, and he wasn't about to let go of her. He put him arms around her and kissed her gently. She smiled. "Thats better!" She stated and shoved him back onto the bed. She started unpacking further when she paused. "I'm going to the bathroom." She smiled as she walked out the door. Joel stood up and began taking things out of her bag and placing them in neat piles, when he came across a t-shirt. He had never seen it before, it was too big for Laurri, it looked like a mans shirt. He studied it and noticed there was a tiny name written in neat handwriting on the labell in the collor. *Elliot Sanson*. Why would her shirt say that? What if it wasn't her shirt, then, who's shirt was it? Why did she have another guys shirt in her suitcase? He held it up and Laurri walked back in. She shook her head and she gasped, leaving the room quickly.
Laurri walked back into her room. It was five minutes since Joel had found the shirt, and he still had no idea what was going on. He was sat on her bed, holding Elliot's shirt, looking puzzled. She looked very pale walking to her bed, every step was torture, eventually, she reached him. She sat next to him on the bed and lent on his shoulder. "Who is Elliot, Laurri?" He spoke in a deep and calm voice. She took a deep breath.
"He is one of my new friends. I met him in New Zeland." She too tried to stay calm.
"A friend who likes to take his shirt off?" He asked sarcastically.
"Err.... yes." She confirmed. "I guess that is pretty unbelievable." He pushed her off his shoulder.
"What happened?" He was firm.
"Well...... Elliot didn't know I had you and... well, he,...." She couldn't speak properly. "Kissed me." She coughed quietly.
"He kissed you." Joel repeated. "Ok. Did you kiss him back?"
"Maybe. Just a few times."
"A FEW times?" He looked shocked. "How many is that?" He frowned.
"A... er.... alot."
"Great. Well, I wasn't going to say this but I kissed Sally again! HAH!" He laughed as he stood up and faced her. Her expression changed from smug to just plain hurt. "BUT.... we decided we couldn't let it happen again because of you." He shook his head and turned to walk out the room.
"Wait." Laurri stood up and put a hand on his shoulder. "Don't go. I'm so sorry for what I did." He turned and took her hand.
"Me too." He smiled and took her in his arms. She relaxed, knowing full well how much he loved her.
