"Because, I've missed you."

I sighed, knowing that he was lying.

But I didn't say that.

"Oh God! Did you see that, Xandra?" Tyler said, dramatically.

"See what?" I asked, looking around.

"She just ate a fry from your boyfriend's tray." Tyler said, pointing an accusing finger at Kemma.

"He isn't her boyfriend. Not anymore." Kemma said, smiling at me.

Cole didn't do anything, as he scrolled down at his phone.

"I knew it. Xandra isn't the kind of person who dates. Isn't it?" Tyler said, smirking.

Cole looked up from his phone, at him.

"And you seem like a person who just doesn't know how to mind his own business." Cole said, as he stood up and left the cafeteria.

"That was rude." Tyler said, pouting a little.

"You deserved it." I said, walking away as well.

I noticed Cole standing near my locker, waiting for me.

"Hey?" I said, scarastically.

"What's he doing here?"

"I don't know."

"I already said, I've missed you, Xandra. "

I turned around to find Tyler standing close to me.

I stepped back, beside Cole.

"Just stay out of my business." Cole said, glaring at Tyler.

"So speaking the ugly truth didn't go well."

"No, when the truth came out from someone ugly, that was what didn't go well." I butted in.

"You think I'm ugly?" Tyler asked, serious.

"God has made no one ugly."

"Why t--"

"I don't know who the fuck made you though."

Tyler rolled his eyes.

I walked away, as Cole walked the other direction, leaving Tyler standing there.

"Where are you going?" I heard Tyler shout.

"Washroom." I shouted back.

"Ooh, I get it. Girl problems." He shouted back.

"Fuck off." I said, as I entered the washroom.

I washed my face with cold water, as I saw Bethany and Jessica entering the washroom.

"That was something." Bethany said, amused.

"Yeah. Something." I said, as I cleaned my face.

"So, how long have you known Tyler?" Bethany asked, interested.

"Do you have a crush on him?" I asked instead.

Bethany looked away.

"Listen. He isn't the one who falls in love. He uses and throws. You need to be careful." I said, trying to make her understand.

"I know he's a player. But...I feel drawn to him."

"Oh, well what about Jordan? I thought you liked him."

"He likes me. I don't." Bethany said, as she retouched her lip gloss.

"Oh."

"Hey Xandra, who's your date for the winter prom?" Jessica asked, changing the subject.

Winter prom?

"Yeah. It's this weekend. On Friday."

"I don't have a date. I'm going solo."

"I'm gonna ask Tyler out." Bethany said, as he placed her gloss back in her bag.

"I've got Brody." Jessica said, smiling.

"Oh shit, we are late." Bethany said, hurrying up.

"Let's go." I said, getting out of the bathroom.

Jessica, Bethany and I made our way to the chemistry class.

"Look who finally decided to grace us with thier presence." Mr. Harts said, scarastically.

"Sorry." Jessica mumbled under her breath.

"Why are you three late?" He asked.

"Girl problems." I said, without thinking.

From the corner of my eyes, I noticed Ryder chuckling out loudly, only stopping when  Tyler elbowed him.

"Who laughed?" Mr. Harts asked, as he turned to the class.

No one answered.

"If you aren't going to come out, then the whole class will get detention." He said, strictly.

I got an idea.

"Sir, I know who laughed." I said, when none of the kids said anything.

"Who?"

"Tyler Hudson."

Sir turned to look at Tyler who looked shocked.

James and Cole started laughing, as the whole class joined in.

I smiled.

"That's it. The whole class will get detention for disturbing my class."

A/N,

Filler chapter. Boring.

Just wanted to post today again.

How many of you ship Xandra with James?

Stay tuned.
