The Painter.

Aleah's POV

The rest of the day went by in a blue.

Everyone from the group ignored Lucy & I.

Even Mike & Amber.

It hurt Lucy that Mike ignored her totally.

It was now end of the day & a total of five guys asked for my number.

We were heading to my car when Mike called Lucy to wait, but all she did was flip him off & run to our car.

Locking the door & burying her face in her hands.

Mike stopped me. "What's wrong with Lucy?"

I scoffed. "You're really going to play that card Mike? You completely ignored her so she has no reason to talk to you. You hurt her you bastard. Now don't speak to her until she ready to forgive you. Loose my number & bye Mike." I said & left him there standing dumbfounded.

When we were driving home Lucy was crying silently.

"Lucy don try. I would hug you but both hands on the steering wheel." She let out a small laugh.

"Thanks for telling him off Aleah. I don't know what I would've said if he stopped me."

"Anytime. I just wish we had all our classes together instead of two." She shrugged.

& we drove the rest of the way in silence.

Mike's POV

I watch as Aleah & Lucy driving off.

I just felt like someone just punched me in the face.

I went to punch Vic in the face but Amber stopped me & I broke down in tears.

The girl I who I was crying for I hurt her, the girl who I was crying for is broken, the girl I was crying for I loved.

"Hey calm down Mikey." Amber cooed in my ear.

"Don't call me that.. Just don't." I whispered.

"I'm sorry but if you didn't want to ignore her then why did you agree?"

"I was doing it for a brother okay? Where ever Lucy is, Aleah is, where ever Aleah is, Tony is. Wouldn't you find it hard to watch the one you care about be with someone else."

I heard her sigh deeply. "It does suck to see Tony be with Aleah, but I'm sucking it up. So will Vic."

I shook my head.

"Let's make her jealous. Let's make her realize how much she loves you."

Should I? No. "Okay."

Aleah's POV

I got up the next morning feeling refreshed.

I told Tony not to hold back so that's what I'm not going to do.

I should've took those numbers & all.

But I didn't, today's another day.

I got dressed into my outfit & did my hair & makeup with extra care.

When I was finished I ran to Lucy's room & check out her outfit.

"Oh girl you look nice." I said sitting on her bed.

"Thanks." She smiled & finished touching up her makeup.

"You ready?" I asked playing Katy Perry.

"Yeah I am let's go."

We were walking down the stairs.

"I'm driving." Lucy dibs.

I sighed "Alright."

When we got there the first hung I noticed was Amber holding Mikes hand, completely adoring him.

"What the fucks this?" Lucy said getting out & walking over to them.

I quickly followed.

"I didn't realize you move on so fast Michael." Lucy was already spitting out. "I can't believe I thought I actually loved you."

I wanted to kill Mike. Even though his lips played an evil smirk.

"Finally you talk to me." Wait I'm confused.

"ARE YOU SERIOUS?" Lucy shouted. "I can't belie-Nk you know what Mike, go fuck yourself I can't believe I ever seen my life being with you."

With that we walked away from Mike & Amber. I took Lucy to the bathroom. Cleaning her makeup & fixing it.

"Forget him Luc." She shrugged.

"It's kind of hard to forget some one you were in love with." She retorted & I flinched.

"Yeah I know what you mean." Her gaze softened.

"What do you mean?"

"It's nothing. It doesn't matter no more." I said not wanting to tell anyone.

Thankfully she dropped it & hugged me.


"Thanks for being there."

"Anytime Lucy. Remember we're sisters."

We went to class, as soon as I got there I was greeted by Tony.

"What Tony."

"I'm sorry I ignored you yesterday.."


"Sorry doesn't always fix things." I said.

"I know but forgive me."

I closed my eyes. "Alright." He came to hug me but I stopped him by holding out my hand.

"Just friends Tony."

He looked at my hand with no emotion. "Friends."

After that we spent the rest of the day together even Jaime joined us.

But not Vic, Mike or Amber tried to talk to us.

Lucy seemed happy after our talk & right now Jaime's giving her a piggy back ride to our car.

"Do you want one?" Tony asked. I nodded & jumped on his bak & we raced after them laughing.

Which came to a stop when we noticed Mike, Vic & Amber by my car glaring at us.

"What do you want?" Lucy said referring mostly to Mike.

"I came to apologize Lucy. I see spending the rest of my life with you. I want to protect you not hurt you Lucy. I love you."

"This is really cheesy." Tony whispered in my ear & I laughed.

"Hey shut the fuck up Tony." Mike said & he pulled Lucy in for a kiss.

"Get a room!" Hime shouted.

I closed my eyes.

This was wonderful. Lucy forgiven Mike. Finally.

Then I felt someone's lips to mine.
