It's Ada(m) and Eve, not Adam and Steve

Chapter Four

Eve's POV

The class went quiet when Adam stormed out of the room. So, Jenna was right that something bad happened to him, it just wasn't a girlfriend, the people who hurt him were his parents. This has to be the most painful thing that could happen to you, but why? What has he done? What was so bad that his parents kicked him out of the house? I need to find out what happened, but I'm not even friends with him so he probably wouldn't tell me, this is pretty personal. I keep thinking about Adam for the rest of my lessons till lunch, hoping to meet him there. Somehow, I really want to know if he slept with Lisa. I sat down at the table we sat at yesterday, when I see him entering the room with a junior next to him. Wow so he's not just fucking seniors he's also all over the younger students? This probably means he did have had sex with Lisa. But why is this bothering me so much? I shouldn't even care about him or how many girls he fucked with. I should think about my girlfriend and fixing our relationship again. God I'm one pathetic girlfriend. I look back at Adam seeing him and that girl hugged goodbye before Adam made his way over to "our" table. I don't want to talk to him. I just stare at the table pretending not to notice him. His date with Lisa was just yesterday and he's already working on the next chick I don't know if he's just a player or if all the girls here are just sluts? "Hey Eve," he sat down. Damn I can't ignore him now. Where are Jenna and Isabel? I could just talk to them, but they're nowhere in sight. "Hey Adam." I stare down at my nasty cafeteria food I start poking in the food, I remember Adam telling me that the food is actually quite good here, but I don't even know what that was supposed to be. "Is something wrong? You're so quiet today?" "It's just.... not a good day I guess." I can't tell him that I don't approve of his lifestyle, I shouldn't interfere with his business. "Why? What was so bad about your day?" I can feel his eyes resting on me. Those deep electric blue eyes. I want to look up, take just one look into these eyes. But I know if I do, I'll tell him the truth, and I can't do that. "I don't know.... I just have a headache and I miss my friends from my old school, which is funny, because I have my closest friends here with me." "I'm sorry, but I'm sure there is a way you can stay in contact with them, right? And there not that far away, are they?" I looked up and smiled at him. "Yeah, we can skype, and there is Facebook, and stuff like that. My Parents even said we could go back to Seattle over Christmas break, visiting my grandparents and friends." He smiled back at me. "See so you see them in just a month or so." He thought about something to talk about, I can see it in his eyes, how he stared intensely at me trying to find something. "So, you moved here from Seattle?" I nodded. "Have you lived there your whole life?" "No, just the last two years. My Parents have some weird jobs and we have to move like every two years. I was born in Florida, Jacksonville I think, when I was shortly over a year we moved to Washington, then New York, Chicago, then some small town all over the Middle West until we moved to Seattle and now I'm here. Usually people first get their scholarships here and then the family moves so that the kid can go to this school. Well, for me it was more like my Parents told me we would move down here to San Francisco and I thought I just try to get a scholarship here. I told Isabell and Jenna since Isabel kinda lives with us and Jenna said her family wanted to move back to California. Something about too much rain and cold weather. We all got our acceptance letter before Thanksgiving break and here we are. How did you get your Scholarship?" He seemed interested in everything I told him until I asked that question. He turned his head scratching his neck, before he cleared his throat. "I... I was at the Basketball court in my hometown, someone forgot his Ball so I took it and just played a bit by myself. I... made a game out of it trying to throw the ball into the Basket from every possible angle and position on the court. I didn't realise that someone was watching me until Sarah... uh...Mrs. Knight asked me what was the farthest I could go and still get the Ball into the net. I just smirked at her took the ball went all the way to the line on the other side and threw the ball with as much strength I could, it went straight into the Basket. Then she told about all this here and well since I had nothing better to do I accepted her offer and here I am." Wow... so he's that good at Basketball? Yeah well, he's tall and clearly muscular. Somehow, I really want to see him in his Basketball jersey running around the court, throwing the ball into the net. I blinked my eyes rapidly to get myself back into reality. "Ok... your story is definitely more interesting." "Mmmh.... Where are your friends?" "Huh..." I looked around realising that Isabel and Jenna still aren't here. „Um I don't know ", I shrugged my shoulders. Usually they should be here by now. In that moment, they both entered the cafeteria. ".... I'm just saying I thought you changed. You have changed for over a year and now you just throw that away and go back to what you used to be like? I thought you learned something from our story but apparently you learned nothing. Please go on and throw away your life, but don't expect me to forgive you twice for the same thing." Instead of coming to our table Jenna turned right back and walked out of the cafeteria. Isabel just shrugged her shoulder and came over to me. "Hey Babe." She said as if yesterday never happened. I know I already forgave her, in my head, but I would still expect her to be a little guilty or at least to be sorry for...for everything. So I did what felt right I ignored her. "Babe? You still mad at me? Please forgive me. Babe I'm sorry, it's been two years I swear I changed. You are the only girl in my life. Please forgive me, I can't lose you." I turned my head, looking her into her deep forest green eyes. "I'll forgive you." I paused holding up my finger in front of her face. "But... this is the first and the only time. If I'll ever find out that you didn't tell me something that big, something like this that can change the way I see you, because it is something about your personality, about who you've been, and maybe might be again, so if I'll find out that you have more of these big secrets that you keep from me, then I swear, Isabel, I'll leave you the instant second that I find out about it, without giving you a chance to explain. So is there anything else I should know? Now is the last chance I'll give you to tell me." I saw her swallowing hard before she shook her head. "No love, there is nothing I'm keeping from you. You know me better than everyone else, and I thank you so much for forgiving me, I swear I'll not disappoint you again. I love you, Eve." Well, keeping this relationship a secret in front of Adam probably wouldn't have worked anyway. "Hmm... So why don't you start by telling me why you're are so late and why Jenna was so upset with you?" I just hope she tells me the truth, I mean we had said that we won't keep things from the other and that we won't lie. Because the truth might hurt, but finding out you've been lied to hurts a fucking lot more than that, so just tell me the truth. "That was a misunderstanding. You see I met this freshman girl in the hall, I bumped into her on my way here and knocked her down. All her books falling down and I helped her pick them up. Well than she asked me if I could help her get something out of the art closet, because it was on the top shelf and she was too short to reach it but her teacher didn't want to hear that. I agreed to help her, and Jenna saw us coming out of that closet and she saw how that girl hugged me before going back to her class. Jenna being her usual self, she just assumed that I fucked her in that closet, I tried to tell her I didn't do that, because I really didn't and well I guess you heard the rest." I can tell she told the truth, but I'm not sure if she'll always tell the truth, she already lied to me, I'll need some time to trust her again. "Thank you for being honest." I hug her. "So, will you go on a date with me tonight?" She whispered in my ear. "Yes; I will." We sat back in our chairs and Isabel turned herself to Adam. "So how was the date?" She asked him with a smirk on her face. God, I lost interest in that, if I said earlier today that I want to know that, I definitely don't want it anymore. "It was good, we went out and grabbed some food, took a nice walk in the park before going back to her house where we had sex. Just like I told you it's not that hard to get the gay girls." He said smirking right back at her. "And you think I'm going to believe you, is there any way you can prove you are telling the truce?" Isabel and Adam stared into each other's eyes. Electric blue to forest green. Before Adam can say something, the blue haired girl walked over to our desk. A black leather jacket hanging lazily over her right shoulder. "Hey A, you forgot your jacket at my place, must have fallen under the bed, here." She gave him his jacket back before leaning in a bit. "Oh, and thanks again, I really needed that yesterday." "It was my pleasure I enjoyed it just as much as you did." He smiled at her. She laughed setting her hand on his shoulder. "Oh, believe me, I know, I'll never forget that face of yours." She turned around. "Bye A." "Bye Lisa." He turned back to Isabel. "I didn't plan this but if that's not enough proof then I don't care, but thanks Isabel this has been the best night I had for a long time." He took his food tray and stood up. "I guess I'll see you guys tomorrow." He walked out of the cafeteria and my eyes followed his back till the door closed behind him. "Wow, he really did it? I wouldn't have slept with him." I looked back at her raising my eyebrow. "Babe, I'm sorry, I mean theoretically, you know since I'm gay..." I just started laughing, I know what she meant I just love toying with her. "Come on let's go to our next class." I said leaving the cafeteria with her.
