465 Words
Isabelle stormed into her room and screamed.
Dante slapped her!
His own sister!
And for who?
Some woman who had to be given a name!
She put her hands in her hair and tugged at it, hot tears streaming down her cheeks.
She knew she wasn't wrong, she saw the way Anahi stared at Sebastian.
Her Sebastian.
The way she acted all shy and pretended to play victim when he touched her.
Isabelle was very much close to killing her with her bare hands.
Nobody was allowed to be that close to her Sebastian like that.
She alone loved him, nobody else could love him like she did.
She sat down and took a deep breath before lying down.
Sebastian was always one for mischief, she thought, smiling as she remembered the first day they'd met.
It was in the first grade. She remembered wearing a pink dress to school, her then blonde hair in pigtails. She sat in front and he sat at the back.
He and his friends would tug at her hair and throw paper at her when she wasn't looking. She would cry and he would laugh at her.
One day, when they were in the playground, he approached her and pulled her ribbons off.
She got up and ran after him.
"Give me my ribbons back!" she yelled.
He laughed and tied the ribbons on his arms.
"Look at me I'm Isabelle and I like pink even though it's rotten stink!" he chanted, dodging her hits. He waved his arms and struck a girly pose before running.
The other children laughed and she turned red in the face.
"I don't like pink!" she yelled.
"Yeah you do." said Enrique, Sebastian's friend, "you're a girly girl and only girly girls like pink."
More laughter followed and she could feel the tears brimming in her eyes.
"Awww she's gonna cry. What are you gonna do, tell your butlers on me? Or your nanny?" he asked.
"I don't have a nanny." she said, crossing her arms.
"I bet she's gonna tell her brother." piped Enrique.
"Big baby!" yelled Sebastian.
Other children joined in on the teasing, pushing her around until recess was over. She'd stayed on the swings, crying.
When she got home, she pulled a tantrum and made the servants redecorate her entire room, painting it blue.
The next day, she wore a blue dress and toughened up.
Sebastian still teased her, but she answered back. This amused Enrique and he stopped troubling her.
When Enrique moved in the 5th Grade, Sebastian was the saddest person.
After a few months he got over it and became same old Sebastian.
When they attended High School, he became the most popular boy in school, getting all the girls and still winning the teachers' favor.
