[Warning: Sensitive Subjects and Cursing]
::The Next Day::
I took my first steps into the school with James and Oliver at my side. I fix the bottom of my dress and smile. I know. This wasn’t in the deal. But I might as well be a girl if I’m going to wear a dress. Right?
It was a draw.
Xander had used oil on his hands and I kept kicking his leg so he would lose. I had technically won but we decided to call it even. Not because I wanted to wear a dress.
But I wanted answers.
No, I needed answers.
And now I’ll get my questions answered today. It made me happy after being clueless for so long.
Oliver and James swung the doors open for me as I smiled. “Ohayo~!” I greeted as a crowd surrounded the entrance. They were waiting to see me in a dress. It felt good to be King.
I wave to all the students and flash a smile. I had on pink kitty ears, a long-sleeved dress that was loose at the sleeves, and white snow boots. I even had some makeup on with the help of the gang.
Everyone stood in shock at my look as I giggle to myself. James and Oliver were dressed like the yakuza. Black clothing with shady sunglasses but their hair was the same as always. With more help of my gang of course. They had met them last night.
Danny and Kent showered them with questions about my school life and James showered them with questions about the life as a part of the yakuza. It was all pretty entertaining to see.
We began our trek down the hall to my locker. The girls awed and the boys’ cheeks started to turn a pink hue. Then, Xander showed up. It completely ruined my happy mood. Xander and a few members of his squad stood by him as they walked in our direction.
Today, his hair was in a back ponytail with a few strands of hair falling down onto the left side of his face. He wore a black long-sleeved shirt, white jeans that were rolled up to his ankles, and a black sneakers with a black and white ankle bracelet. He reminded me of a star in vocaloid. Ugh. I hate when I have to admit his sense of style is ‘cool’. “Morning, princess.” Xander teased, sticking his tongue out to me.
“Mornin’.” I murmur, crossing my arms. “How are you this morning, huh?”
“I did my part of the deal. You do yours.”
Xander’s lip curled into a smug grin as he chuckled. “I knew you were going to say that.” He raised his hand to me and I hesitantly took it. He started to walk down the hall to the secluded part of school; under the staircase. I remove my hand from his as I back away to the wall. “Now, give me answers.”
“My, Reece is so controlling.” I roll my eyes and cross my arms.
“Let’s start with the session, huh?” Xander sighed, putting his hands behind his head. “Fine then. Why did you break up with me?” He raised a brow as he chuckled. “You should know quite well, yeah?”
“I’m asking the goddamn questions here. Now answer it.”
“You sound so desperate.”
…
It’s because I am, you ignorant fuck.
“You just left without an explanation. What do you expect me to think when that happens out of nowhere?”
“Hm. Touche.”
“Please…”
I can’t take anymore of him fucking around with my head. I felt myself tear up as I looked down. I can’t handle this any longer. I just want answers… Not to be toyed with.
“I left you because of a thing that happened a long time ago. I had a boyfriend back when I had my studies in America and he changed me into the person you met when we first started dating in middle school. I used to be a jerk and pushed people around..until he came along. I was in love with him until my parents urged me to come back to Japan during graduation.” I felt my heartbeat increase as I looked up in shock.
“W-Wait. You mean…hold on, what did the boy look like?”
“My memory is kind of hazy… But he had blonde hair and purple eyes I think.” My eyes widened as I stared at him in shock.
“That was me…” Xander’s eyes widened as well. “You…wait what?”
“I was in America for middle school. I was always surrounded by girls and it was annoying. Until I met this boy and grew an interest towards him… I wanted to be his friend and he didn’t want to at first.. But right now, you’re the one who dumped me at graduation…” Xander looked down in guilt.
“Do you realize everything I went through with that… I was so depressed that I started going to the yakuza…drinking and smoking. I even sold my body off on the streets.. It wasn’t pleasure at all..it was rape.” He stared at me, a guilty look in his eyes.
“Now, I meet the perfect guy for me in my home country and he leaves me without giving me answers. A repeat of fucking graduation!!“
“…” I fall onto the floor, hiding my face into my knees. I hear footsteps walk forward as my tears flow out. I feel my chin lift up as well as something soft brushing against my lips.
Xander…
I didn’t have the strength to push him away.
I didn’t have the strength for anything anymore.
“I’m sorry.. The reason why I broke up with you was to save you.. Mason could have killed you..”
…
Killed me.
That’s a laugh. If I could laugh anyway.
I start to chuckle softly as he pulls away, looking at me in confusion. “I love the fact.. That you think I’m weak.. When I have my own gang of yakuza…” He looks at me and sighs.
“I want to get rid of Mason. But I can’t do it… If we date again-” “Who said anything about us dating?”
I stood up and pushed him on the ground with my foot. A frown grew on my lips as I straddled his waist, him too afraid to even move. “You’re the one who broke my heart twice. Give me a reason to be with an ass like you again.”
“But Reece.. I still love you.”
“If you want me back, you better fucking show it. Not to mention that I have a boyfriend already. What made you think that I’d be putty in your hands?” I got off him as my foot was on his chest.
“I got my answer and you got your part of the deal. This deal is closed. You had the nerve to use that shit on me again, Xander.” I warned, moving my foot away and walking off. Before I could escape, he grabbed my arm and whipped me around, my back against the wall.
“Do you know how much I’ve put up with just to get here? To see you?”
“Well, obviously, you wasted your time. I’m done Xander. I’m sick of you pushing me around.”
“What the fuck is that supposed to mean, huh?!”
“You always treated me like a bunch of garbage. You were always wandering another way. I was right here in front of you when you couldn’t give me the time of day! Does that ring a bell?!”
“Shut up! The reason why is because Mason was on my ass everyday! You don’t know what it’s like to have a stalker!!”
“Oh?! Do you know me, Xander?!” I pushed him away and pinned him against the wall. “God! And you say you love me when you don’t know anything about me!! How is that love?!”
Xander grew silent as he sighed. “You’re right.. Will you at least help me get rid of Mason?”
“Get rid of him yourself, you pansy.” I end, walking off and sighing to myself. Can’t believe Xander and his smug ass.
::Lunch Time::
Oliver and James literally kept asking me questions about the talk with Xander.
“Yes!! I got my answer. Now shut up and let me eat my ramen!” I snap, turning the other way as they stare.
I look up and see Xander walk by alone. I stand up and glare at him. “The hell do you want?” I ask, crossing my arms.
“We need to talk. And I’m not taking no for an answer.”
“Well too bad. It’s a no.” His eyes narrow as he takes me and throw me over his shoulder.
“Hey! Let me down!” I continue to curse at him as he walks out of the cafeteria and back to the place where we last talked. He finally let me down as I slap him. “What is your problem with me anyway?” I murmur to myself.
Then he does the unthinkable. “What the?!”
He put his hand up my dress.
