HIGH SCHOOL ENEMY

SEVENTEEN

"Let me know princess." He kissed my cheek and cleaned up the roses and blew out the candles. He soon drove off, and I smiled. I walked back in, feeling a mixture of regret yet happiness.

I know I'd be hurt if I saw Joe at prom with someone else, but I was the one who told him to leave me alone.

The next morning I woke up to my phone buzzing. I answered it, and yawned before I spoke.

"Hello?" I groaned.

"Kylie, it's me, Joe." I immediately shot up in my bed.

"J-Joe, hey." I said calmly.

"Hey, Kylie. I just wanna meet up with you. I miss you, and I feel like we really need to talk."

"Joe I don't think that's a good i-

"Kylie please. Please. I just need to get a few things off of my chest. Meet me at the beach you and I went to after your birthday party in an hour. I hope to see your face." He hung up, causing my insides to turn. I was nervous to see what he wanted to talk about.

I put my phone on the charger and got up, walking to my bathroom. I showered, brushed my teeth, straightened my hair and walked to my closest.

I put on white skinny jeans and a black tank top with black sandals. I grabbed my keys and phone, walking downstairs.

"I'll be back mom, Joe wants to meet up." I told her and she smiled.

"I miss Joe!" Kyla squealed.

"I know bubba, maybe I can have him come over after." I said causing her to nod and kiss my cheek. I kissed my moms cheek and walked out of the door. I drove off, taking deep breaths in and out.

As I arrived fifteen minutes later, I saw him from a far standing there with his hands in his pocket. I got out and walked over to him. He smiled at me, and I couldn't help but to smile back at his beauiful face.

"I'm glad you came." He hugged me and I hugged him back.

"Me too." I whispered and stayed in his embrace. I finally pulled away, and he stared into my eyes.

"Can we walk along the beach?" He linked his hand in mine and I nodded. We began walking slowly, and he took a deep breath.

"You okay Joe? Something on your mind?" I looked at him as we continued walking. We came to a stop and he turned me around to face him.

"Yes, there is. The reason why I wanted you to come here was because, I'm just gonna go out and say it. I love you. I've never said that to anyone besides my mother and father. When I first saw you come here to our school, I tried everything to be closer to you, including trying to embarrass you which was very dumb of me. I realized that you're the girl I need to have a positive attitude around. Eva never did me like you, and the dumb ass like me, kept her after the night that you and I kissed. To me, that kiss was very magical and I wanna kiss your lips every single second of the day if you let me. Your beautiful long hair, your sassy attitude when someone tries to do you wrong, your beautiful smile and your deep dimples when someone makes you blush or laugh. When you told me that we couldn't talk anymore, not only did it hurt me but it motivated me even more to fight for you. You're the only girl I want, and I need you in my life Kylie. I want to ask you two questions. Number one, will you be my girlfriend? And second of all.. Turn around and see for yourself." He spoke. Tears fell down my cheeks right when he told me he loved me. I slowly turned around, and saw a sandcastle saying Prom?

I wiped my eyes and laughed, turning around. But I just remembered I already said yes to Randall. My hands began to shake and I cried harder.

"J-Joe, I need to tell you something."

"What is it?" He grabbed my hands and I took a deep breath.

"I, already said yes to Randy."His smile went away, and he slowly dropped my hands like it was poison.

"I'm so sorry. I would love to go with you but-

"But Randy must be better than me huh?" He interrupted.

"No, I just thought t-that since I told you to leave me alone, you wouldnt."

"Oh bullshit Kylie!" He screamed, causing me to jump. He kicked the sandcastle down and paced back and forth, soon stopping to face me.

"You know me well more than anyone else! You know I wanted you in my life. Yet you chose some stuck up asshole over me! I have never called you out of your name, I have not ever tried to control you! He doesn't even care about you Kylie! He thinks he can have you wrapped around his finger when his side girls are boring him out! You're making a big fucking mistake! You're too stupid to realize that at all! You never cared about me like I care about you now. I poured my heart out to you yet you still wanna go with him!"

"Joe stop please I-I-

"Shut up!" He screamed, making me jump and shake harder, tears falling down more.

"I get it, okay?!? I will never be enough. I can't believe I wasted my time on someone as selfish as you. Stay away from me from now on." He growled. I cried harder and he stared at me with anger. He quickly walked away and I sank to my knees and cried harder.

I lost him, for good and it's all my fault. Now that I sat here and cried my eyes out, I did realize something.

I didn't love Randall.

My heart belonged to Joe. I loved him.
