Keegan removes himself from our current position to the end of my car, Nathan glares at him and glances right on back to me. Panic strikes through me, I've just made out with Keegan and Nathan the one who was pointing his finger at me for being with him is the ice burg on top.

Nathan coughs again, "Sorry for intruding, I just wanted to talk to your girl." Nathan begins walking closer to me, I stand there frozen still leaning up against my car and Keegan is just standing there looking at the exchange of Nathan and me.

"Yeah sure man," Keegan speaks looking almost frightened, that Nathan wanted to speak with me. I shake my head at him; I didn't want to be left behind.

I feel so hurt, it's not like I want to be his girl but at least show some respect for a girl being ambushed by her ex. Let alone he was the one just shoving his tongue down my throat.

"Thanks, man," Nathan smiles, forcing Keegan to leave with a nod and then heading back into the school. "Josephine." Nathan coos my name.

I looked at him in disgust, what made him think that I would want to talk to him and let alone ask Keegan if it was okay to talk to me I'm my own person.

"Jo, don't look at me like that," Nathan speaks slowly, his voice calming drawing me to look at him. "I came here to apologize."

I wanted to abruptly laugh in his face, "Yeah," I egg him on more, "Anything else you go to say?" I look away from him again.

"Josephine, come on look at me. I'm truly sorry, okay." I turn to his face, not baring another stare into his blue eyes. "I didn't mean to explode everything on to you like that deserve it's wasn't fair, you deserve a better person in your life. Which I couldn't be, and I've moved on Joe. I truly did. But, there is something I need to tell you-."

"Good for you," I said interrupting him before squishing my face in disgust; I didn't want to hear any more of his shit he's put me through enough shit. "Can I go now?" I direct my eyes to the school.

"Oh yeah sorry, and hey do you want to come to join us? We have one more game to go; come on it'll be like old times again." Nathan nudges me forward, with his glistening smile.

What the fuck no, does he think a quick apology would fix our relationship? We don't have a relationship, to begin with, and personally, he did destroy my friendship with Nina and doesn't deserve a pat on the back or even a decent high five. Does he think that we will go back to normal?

I was diverted, in between choosing Keegan or choosing people who could laugh. I wanted some type of reassurance from someone but I knew I had to figure out what was wrong with Keegan and I or whatever happened to lead to such a kiss.

"I can't," I mutter, leaning away from my car, I didn't want another interruption nor did I want to apologize for interrupting him but he doesn't deserve it right now.

"Oh, Josephine," Nathan grips my arm, "I know you don't care, but you shouldn't trust Keegan." He lets go of my arm, before stuffing his hands into his blue jean pockets then turning and walking off to the door to the common room.

Nathan doesn't trust Keegan? The guy who cheated on me says I shouldn't trust a guy? How switched around is that I can't stand here and ponder what's going on between these two that carries so much beef. I needed to talk to Keegan, and it wasn't something I was going to take likely.

The snow had collected on my hair as I lighting brushed it off following the wet prints that led into the gym, my now feet frozen from the sudden snow and teeth clattering from the cold. I wrap myself around the bleachers and I look to see Keegan, sitting at the opposite end of the bleachers.

He looks up at me, his bare chest was now replaced with a black Nike jersey and a wicked smile graced upon his lips. A snicker escapes from his mouth, as his eyes take me in with every breath I take.

My voice comes out stern and shaky, "What are you laughing at?" I say, before placing my hand on my hip.

"You, look like a mess." He slowly stands up pacing himself towards me, my breath hitched at his sudden movement as he places his fingertips lightly against my forehead tucking the hair strand behind my ear.

I take at this moment as a sudden reach to his chest but not a playful one but a mean one, my punch felt every so reliving but it left him to a giggle.

"This isn't funny Keegan, you can't accept me to be making out with you and then leave me behind with Nathan?" Keegan's eyes dawn on me showing his glistening blue eyes, drenching me into them, "What's your problem, and I swear if you cut me off again with another-"

-Kiss, with a kiss but it wasn't something to go into detail with more like a teenage boy peck. "My problem is you speak too much," Keegan says stepping back to retrieve his basketball.

I think the problem here is that he doesn't speak enough; you can't just kiss someone and expect nothing out of it. I'm not a piñata that you take a swing out of, use it once then throw it out, "Why did you leave me back there with Nathan?" I ask Keegan, as he places his duffel bag along with his shoulder.

He turns to me, grabs my wrist and begins to trail me along behind him, "Because he's been wanting to talk to you for a while Josephine, it's about Nina."

I abruptly stop in my tracks, "I just talked to her before I came here-" I cut off my sentencing noticing that before I left tonight she was trying to say something to me but I left ignoring her. What was she trying to say to me?

"Well, did she tell you what's going on?" Keegan's eyes narrow in on me like I'm some lost child, he gripped my twist slightly before sliding his finger down into my hands causing me comfort.

His touch didn't feel like a new sensation, it felt comfortable like we've done this before. "She didn't," I shake my head, nodding in disbelief that something must have happened to her. "I didn't allow her too."

Slinking my head down, to the ground, Keegan gilts his hand in mind as we continue moving toward my car, "I'll explain in the car." He shuffles to the passenger side, waiting for me to unlock the door.

I finally turn the car on, allowing Keegan to enter the car, "Nice car, and seventy-eight?"

I nod my head, "Yeah, now can you please tell me about Nina?" I say practically begging Keegan for an answer.

"She hasn't been doing too well," He says rubbing his leg.

"Yeah, you already told me that," I answered before turning onto the main road, "Now tell me what's going on with Nina!" I holler at him, before averting my eyes to the road again.

"Fine, alright. Nina has been going to therapy, and the mental institution," Keegan breathes heavily, "Since the fight, she turns bulimic. I saw her coming out of my therapist office when I was there, and I was surprised to see her there. I told my therapist that I knew her and she wasn't afraid to let me know, Nathan has known for longer and he knew he couldn't talk to you so he came to me."

A red light flashed in front of me, which I didn't notice causing me to slam on my brakes jerking our bodies forward. "You're telling me that you didn't have the nerve to tell me?" The light turn's green causing my tires to spin before lunging forward, if they told me sooner I would've been there for her.

"It wasn't something to spring on someone Joey." He grabs onto the door handle, as I took a sharp turn to our apartment, and it all made sense she came to me to bring something up and I had ignored her because of my anger towards Keegan.

"Well, it would've been if she was talking to me tonight, and I brushed her off because of your stupid ass." I swatted my hand at his chest, "You should've grown the balls to tell me, and you've been going to a therapist?"

"Ow," He says, rubbing his chest.

"Yeah, ow and you'll be getting more than that." As we get into the parking lot and I immediately get out rushing towards the lobby doors, I couldn't get there fast enough.

I skipped the elevator and ran towards the stairs instead, they were taking too long and I wouldn't bother waiting for Keegan or the elevator shaft to open. I was moving too fast causing my foot to slip on the staircase, my knee banged against the case making me yelp in pain but I couldn't stop I needed to make sure Nina was okay.

I finally reach the floor and go running to her down; stopping to catch my breath I swung open the door. Seeing Nina hunched over the sink, her fingers inside her mouth as she was attempting to puke...
