Cheaters Never Prosper (pt.3)

(Ray POV)

As I walked into Gov…my head was spinning. Rave was the very first girl I ever loved, but she broke my heart so bad. I’m confused about why she acted like we were so close. I sat down in class, thinking mad hard. Damn. If she back…senior was about to get a lot more complicated.

 “Hi, and you are?” I hear Mr. Holmes, my teacher, say.

 I looked. Are. You. Serious?

 “Ashley.” She smiles.

 “Okay. Take the seat in front of Raquan.” Mr. Holmes says.

 I froze as Ash walks over.

 “Hey, Ray.” She smiles.

 I give her a small smile and she turns around. ****! Ex-girlfriend number 2 is back?! Seriously? Seriously? ****. My. Life.

I have never left class so fast. I mean, I was RUNNING. Damn. I needed to get out of here. Wayyy too much going through my mind. I ran into Tyler, literally.

 “Whoa, Ray. Chill, boy.” Tyler says, with a laugh. “Where you running to?”

 “Uhm..I…” I stuttered.

 “You okay?” She asks, looking worried.

 “I’m cool. Uh…Domi and I were suppose to meet after school, for the project. Can you tell her I can’t make it today?” I asked, in a rush.

 “Slow down, Ray. Yeah, I’ll tell her. What’s wrong?” Ty asks.

 “I’m fine. I’ll catch you later.” I said, then ran out the door. I cannot be in school right now. The two girls who shattered my heart, not broke…shattered, were back. TOGETHER. Along with the girl I think I’m falling in love with. What the **** was I suppose to do? I ran home, unlocking the door, and going to my room. I sat on my bed, putting my head in my hands. I heard my door opened, I looked up. Shxt! I forgot my dad was home.

 “Ray? What are you doing home?” He asks.

 “I…” Think fast, Ray. Think. “I…feel kinda sick and I’m dizzy..” I lie.

 Dad comes over and feeling my forehead. “You’re burning up. Relax and lay down.” Dad says.

 I do as told.

 “You might be catching something.” He says.

 No, I wasn’t catching anything. I was screwed.

(Nique POV)

Leaning on my locker after school, I waited for Ray. Where was he?

“There you are!” Ty runs up.

 “Hey.” I said. “What’s up?”

 “Ray told me to tell you that he can’t make it.” Ty says.

 My eyebrows furrowed. “Is he okay?”

 “He said he was. He looks scared out of mind, to me.” Ty says.

 I was suddenly worried. “A’ight. I’ll catch you later, Ty.”

 “’Kay.” We hug and I leave. I go to Ray’s house. His dad answers the door.

 “Hi, Mr. Randy. Is Ray home?” I asked.

 “Up in his room.” He says, letting me in.

 I jog up the stairs and to Ray’s room. He door was cracked, I heard voices. So, I stood there and listened.

 “You’re telling me that Ashley AND Raven are back?” Trey asks.

 “Yes. What the hell am I suppose to do?” Ray says. He sounds like he’s panicking. Who are Ashley and Raven?
