"I can't-" "Please Kaylee" She hesitated for a while, playing with her fingers as she looked down at it. She did that for almost fifteen whole minutes before she finally spoke up again. "Okay", she agreed shortly. She had said she would do it anyways. "Thanks, Kaylee. And your Mom, that wasn't your fault, you know that right?", he asked calmly and slowly, trying not to say anything to offend her or make her angry and sad again. She looked up at him and gave him a facial expression which he translated as 'really?' "Well, it might have been your fault, a little bit. But she risked her life for both of you, she wanted you to live your life. You are still young, Kaylee. You shouldn't be doing this to yourself. You should live how the people our age do. It might be really hard to but you just have to try, Kaylee. Try", he said as he held her right hand again. Kaylee just nodded as she tried to fight the tears again. Everyone has been saying that to her all these years anyways. She
Kaylee rushed out of the stage and went backstage. She tried cleaning her clothes but it was a mess already. She was a mess already. Her hair was covered in paint, her white shirt is now stained with different colors and all these color combinations did not look good on her, at all. And in front of everyone, in front of everyone, that had happened. Who did this to her? Was it Vanessa? Why would Vanessa do this to her? She was still trying to fight back the tears when they all entered. Anna and Harry were in front. Vanessa walked behind them and Kaylee saw Kavinsky coming backstage as well. "I am so sorry, Kaylee. I pulled you into this. You did not want to do it but I forced you to and now this happened", Kavinsky rushed it all at once as he stood in front of Kaylee with an apologetic and pitiful look on his face. Kaylee hates that look. "No, no. It's not your fault", Kaylee said quickly too as the tears rolled down her cheeks. Anna walked towards her and held her in her arm.
Monday morning Kavinsky and Kaylee got to school quite too early than usual. Only a few students and teachers were already in school but surely, the janitor was around. He had to start cleaning before the students started coming into the school. "Can I talk to you?", Kavinsky asked coldly and the janitor turned around to look at him. "Hey Joe", Kaylee greeted as she waved her hand at him from beside Kavinsky and Joe just gave her a small smile, not replying to her greetings. "What is it, kid?", Joe asked instead, turning his head to face Kavinsky back. "Privately?", Kavinsky replied, more like a question but Joe nodded his head anyways like he was already used to things like this. They walked away from the hallway and into an empty class. "What can I do for you?", Joe asked impatiently taking a seat on one table there. "Why did you set up the paint trap?", Kavinsky asked, going straight to the point. He isn't willing to beat around the bush. "Wh- what trap?", Joe panicked. He
Kavinsky walked back to class and saw Kaylee sitting with Anna. It seemed like Kaylee had told Anna about it because it seemed to Kavinsky that Anna was comforting her. He walked towards them and Kaylee looked down at her fingers. "Please excuse us", Kavinsky said to Anna and Anna nodded in understanding. Anna stood up and Kavinsky sat down on the seat she sat on before he arrived. "It was because of you", Kaylee said immediately after he sat down. "I know", he replied with a frustrated sigh. "I broke up with her", Kavinsky said again in a very calm tone after some time. "What? Why?", Kaylee asked as she turned her head up sharply to look at him in surprise. "If it is because of me, you shouldn't have. I will be fine", Kaylee added quickly. "No, it's not because of you. I am tired of the relationship anyways and I never loved her", he said with a shrug. Kaylee stayed silent when she heard that. She just decided not to ask about it. "Tell me what I can do to make it up to
It was lunchtime at Seattle high school. Kaylee, Anna, Kavinsky, and Harry all sat around a table as they ate. "You have a strong head", Kaylee muttered to Kavinsky and he turned to look at her beside him. "What?!", he asked in disbelief. "Yes. I apologized before and you still won't talk to me", Kaylee whined with a pout like a baby. "Awn, you look cute right now", Kavinsky said and Anna cleared her throat weirdly. "Hey! That was not my intention", Kaylee quickly said as her cheeks turned red. "Alright, I forgive you", Kavinsky said with a grin. "Whatever", Kaylee muttered. "Are you angry now?", Kavinsky asked, turning his head to look at her. "Just whatever", Kaylee muttered again but all Kavinsky could think of is; 'She is soo cute' They all ate in silence after that and when they were done, they returned their trays before leaving for class when the bell rang. . . . The school was finally over and they all went home. Kaylee and Kavinsky's ride was as quiet as a gra
Kaylee walked into the indoor basketball court. Seems she was the last to arrive because all eyes fell on her, even the coach. Well, it wasn't her fault. She found it so hard to change her clothes as if she was doing it for the first time. "I am so sorry for coming late, sir", she said apologetically to the coach, walking towards the group of girls that still had their eyes on her. "Don't be late next time, get over here", Matthew, the coach said and Kaylee quickly hurried over. They all turned their eyes away from her after that time. She stood beside Anna like the others. It looked like the coach had something important to say, so the girls were surrounding him. "Okay, so I have huge news", the coach started and all the girls went so quiet. "We will be hosting the players of Winston high girls-only school, here in Seattle high", he continued when he was sure he had all of their attention. "Wow", someone commented immediately. "They would come prepared, that's for sure. No
Kaylee and Kavinsky walked into the football field as usual and started practicing. He tested her on a few things she had learned before and she did those perfectly. "So, now you have a competition", Kavinsky started firmly. "Yeah?", Kaylee replied. He was just saying what they were already aware of before. "These girls might be skilled and naturally everyone wants the ball for themselves". Kavinsky continued and Kaylee just paid attention to him like he was the boss that he is. "So, they would try to take the ball from you. When you jump up to throw the ball in the hoop or when you are trying to pass the ball to the other person, they would want to hijack the ball from you. They would take every single chance they get to have that ball and so will you guys", Kavinsky said and Kaylee nodded in confirmation. She had promised herself that she would take any chance she gets to at least place her hands on the ball they would be using on Saturday. She would at least try to score in
Friday morning; Kaylee woke up and went to the bathroom immediately. She went in front of the mirror and started brushing her teeth. The memories of yesterday came flooding in again and her face went red. She held both of her cheeks and smiled. 'Seriously, what's wrong with me?', she thought and shook her head. She quickly had her bath, the smile not intending to go away from her face any soon. Soon, she finished dressing up and went downstairs to have breakfast. Laura had just finished dressing up and she was coming out of her room, so she and Kaylee walked down the stairs together. They had breakfast and they all walked out of the house one after the other; Kaylee, Laura, and Mr. Blaine. Laura and Mr. Blaine got into the car and Kaylee just stared at them. "Wish you luck in school", Kaylee said to Laura and Laura's eyes went wide at Kaylee's words. "Safe journey, Dad", she said again to her father as well and he smiled back at her. He turned on the ignition of the car a
