here any second.
"Don't worry!" She said cheerfully. "I'll explain and then everything will be back to normal." Man that sounded good. I hoped she was right
But of course, if everything DID go right, that would be too easy, wouldn't it?
Four seconds later I saw Arianne. However, the look on her face was something I would rather not have seen. She looked so in pain! Even from the slight distance I could see the tears budding in her eyes. I called out her name, that wonderful name, but she just turned around and started walking away. No, no, no, no! This was not going right at ALL!
I ran over to her, she looked miserable. I reached out and grabbed her hand. Thankfully, there weren't any people around to see this
She spun around and glared at me. "Leave me alone." She said through clenched teeth.
"Arianne what's wrong?" I asked trying to show the caring in my voice. I really did care; when I saw her like that it made me want to be the same way. My stomach was turning in anticipation. Was it something I did? "Don't ever touch me again." Wow. I could almost taste the venom in her voice.
"Don't cry, please. Tell me what's wrong?" I said. She wasn't acting like her normal pissed off self right now; Arianne was at an all time evil. There must REALLY be something wrong.
I was starting to get worried. She ripped her hand from mine and instantly I wanted it back there. She tried leaving but I wouldn't let her. I took about two steps and over took her. I placed my hands on her waist, turning her toward me gently.
Un-thinkable feelings went up my arm and I cursed myself for being such a pig. I tried to shake the immensely good feeling of my hands on her waist by trying look into her eyes. She finally looked up at me and instead of the warm, hazel eyes I was used to, I saw dark brown eyes full of hatred. This was not like her. Suddenly she replied.
"You're what's wrong." Arianne was seething right now, and I could tell that I did something really bad. Really, really bad. What did I do!!??!! The confusion must have shown on my face as clear as day, because she decided to tell me without any further encouragement. "The blonde, AGAIN!?"
Oh my Lord. How much more STUPID could I have been? I mean really? I smacked my face with my hand and closed my eyes. I let go of Arianne, reluctantly yes but it was for good reason. Now I understood. She had battled so hard within herself to give me a second chance and then she comes here and I'm laughing with that same stupid blonde! I HATE BLONDES!
When I opened my eyes Arianne was gone. Gone forever? Yeah, let's go with that one.

Chapter 5
Arianne
Three days later I was still distraught, crying on my bed. I couldn't seem to stop. The first day I had just resisted the tears, but after going to volleyball practice and being completely unable to perform, my coach had sent me back to my dorm with a warning. I needed to get focused or I wouldn't be playing. That would be a violation of my scholarship which, in turn, meant that I would have to leave Harvard.
I couldn't believe how un-lucky my life had turned out to be just because of a stupid guy! They really were the worst creatures on the face of the earth. This morning, my first class wasn't until the afternoon so I took this time to let out my sobs. I did have to admit, it felt great to let out all of that stress, emotion; pain. I was crying silently to myself when I heard a knock at my door.
Oh my gosh. He was NOT bothering me! I couldn't believe he had the nerve to actually show his face!
"Go away!" I shouted at him, crying all the harder.
"Arianne, it's Sophia."
Sophia? Who the heck was Sophia??? I sat up and wiped off my face as best as I could. I quickly blew my nose then bolted over to the door. No need to keep my visitor waiting even though I did NOT feel like seeing anyone
I opened the door and
