I had missed my history lessons due to my sick day so sitting next to Ian had slipped my mind. Well at least up until that point anyway.
    “So who’s this Kai guy I heard you talking about on the bus?”
    His question stunned me and I stopped what I was doing, my arm hovering mid-air with my pad as I turned to glare at him.
    “None of your business Ian,” I said, slightly annoyed by his assumption that he had the right to know what was going on in my life.
    “Wow I didn’t think you were that type of girl Rea, bit quick for you to move on isn’t it?” He smirked, knowing he was getting to me.
    “Like I said before Ian, it is none of your business,” I hissed, as Mr Baits had started to talk about something at the front of the room.
    “Fine, whatever, don’t tell me.” He shrugged nonchalantly as if he didn’t care what I was saying. “Just make sure I don’t see him around okay? Because I doubt it will end well for him, if you get what I’m saying.” His gaze had turned cold and I was instantly enraged by the fact he still thought he had any control or claim over me.
    “What the hell Ian? And as if you can talk about moving on quick. At least I waited until we had broken up, unlike you. And why should me moving on bother you anyway, you have Alesha, so let me get on with my life,” I whispered furiously, not wanting to draw attention to our fight as it would only start more gossip.
    He just shrugged in response, his eyes focused on the front of the class where Mr Baits had started to write something on the board, before saying. “Don’t tell me I didn’t warn you.”
    That history lesson couldn’t have ended soon enough. Ian and I had spent the rest of the lesson in an infuriated silence, and I couldn’t have left the room quicker if I had tried. Before Mr Baits had even finished his sentence, dismissing us, I was already out of my seat and hurrying towards the door. I had a free period next with all of my friends so I headed to our usual spot in the cafeteria to reluctantly to meet up with them.
    Sitting down besides them I knew Chloe had already filled them in on our conversation this morning.
    “So...spill. What’s this Kai guy like?” Chloe was almost bouncing out of her seat as she asked the question and the others all perked up a bit too at the sound of new, interesting gossip that didn’t involve Ian.
    “I’m really not in the mood guys, I just had to spend an hour sat next to Ian in history and he was being really weird, saying stuff like he better not see me with Kai. I don’t know why he’s bothering though, he moved on so why can’t I?”
    Everyone at the table looked slightly uneasy, like they were trying to cover something up.
    “Okay, what are you hiding?” I stared at them until Chloe swallowed her mouthful of food, before coughing guiltily.
    “You haven’t heard?”
    My blank stare must have answered the question for her as she continued speaking.
    “Alesha dumped him yesterday night, something to do with always whining about you or something along those lines. Anyway when she saw him pull you into that class the other day she kinda freaked. I must have forgotten to mention it to you.”
    Rendered speechless, I toyed with my bottle, spinning it around the table, as I tried to process what Chloe had just said and find a suitable reply.
    “Don’t waste your time with him Rea, he cheated remember and I hate to say this but he’s probably only talking to you because he thinks you will be easy to win back.”
    “How could you forget to tell me something like this Chlo? And don’t worry I don’t want that asshole back,” I said, slightly annoyed.
    “Sorry, it must have slipped my mind. It’s not important anyway, what is important though is, what’s Kai like?”
    Sighing I gave in, admitting to myself that there was no way out of the situation.
    They hung on my every word as I described what Kai and I spoke about, well some of it anyway, and told them what his
