Chapter 5
"You fucking scumbag!"
The scream echoed across the open lot as Kelly stomped toward the target of her rage.
Kyle looked up and sighed, knowing that there was no way around this one and at least there wasn't an entire school for an audience--time to tackle this one head-on. "I'm a scumbag? That is rich coming from you, Kel."
"I dumped you, and you had the balls to go and fuck my sister? What kind of deviant are you?" Kelly closed the gap till she was looking up at the taller boy.
"I am not fucking your sister," Kyle said with a smirk. "Just her mouth."
The brash statement from the normally reserved Kyle stopped her tirade for a moment. "You did what?"
"I enjoyed what she offered. A whole hell of a lot more than I could say of you. She, apparently, has good taste." Kyle let the last word dangle with a bit of sarcasm, but it was cut off as Kelly's open palm slapped him. The sound faded off in the open space, but the pain certainly didn't. "What the fuck is wrong with you? We're through, and it's none of your business what I or your sister do."
Kelly just sputtered and turned redder, if that was possible. It was clear she was trying to come up with some comeback to take the wind out of Kyle's sails.
"Tongue-tied?" Kyle asked with a slightly mocking tone. "I guess that runs in the family." Kyle turned and walked away.
"You fucking asshole!" Kelly screamed and turned to walk the other way.
Kyle let the smile fade from his lips as he continued his walk home. This turned out differently than he wanted it to in the slightest. As much fun as it had gotten to be with Staci, Kyle was already trying to work out in his head how to ease out of that situation. All this did was stick him in deeper. Or did it? Maybe this would be enough to piss Staci off, and she'd break it off so he wouldn't have to. One could only hope.

"I'll be working late tonight," Kyle's mom called out to him as he walked in the door. "Production line was down again, and they are going to try and make up all of the backlog tonight."
"Oh, that is going to suck," Kyle said, dropping his backpack near the door. "Why do you have to pay for their equipment not running right?"
His mom laughed, "Welcome to work life. I might see you tomorrow before you leave for school, but I wouldn't count on it."
The phone rang, interrupting Kyle's reply.
"Oh yeah, Staci called for you. I bet that's her calling back. She's an insistent one, and I don't know how I feel about that."
"I'll be careful Mom. I know you worry. And I'll see you because tomorrow is Saturday, no school" Kyle picked up the phone and listened.
"Hello?" Staci's voice asked from the other end of the line.
Kyle's mom waved and mouthed the word 'Be careful' as she headed out the door.
"Hey, Stace," Kyle said, sitting down at the kitchen table.
"Oh, you're home. That's great. I had talked to your mom earlier, but I forgot to ask her to let you know I work tonight so if you wanted to stop by the station, you could."
Kyle remembered that Staci worked at a small two-pump gas station not too far away. It was a tiny mom-and-pop place that ran 24 hours and sold more in snacks and pop than it did gas. "Oh, I don't know if interrupting your work is the best idea," Kyle said, trying to figure out a way to avoid this one at least for the moment.
"It's always quiet on the late shift. And besides, I might just get 'tongue tied' if you're there," Staci said with a chuckle.
"You heard about that already?'
"Toni called while Kelly was still stomping away. She overheard the whole thing. She wanted to know what we were up to."
Kyle slammed his forehead into the table with a thud. This was getting worse, not better. "And what did you tell Toni? You know she isn't the most discreet person."
"Oh yeah, she's a total slut. She doesn't care who knows and loves to know that others are doing it too. I swear she just wants to know that she's not the only one with her legs in the air. Remember how happy she was when that junior cheerleader got pregnant?"
"Staci, this is not the time for Toni gossip stories. What did you tell her?"
"Oh, don't worry. I didn't downplay you at all. I told her just how tasty your dick really is."
Kyle slammed his forehead down onto the table a second time. Maybe it wasn't too late to become an exchange student. "Staci, why did you tell her that?"
"Because it's true. And I told her that she'd have to wait to find out for herself until you got bored of me. And I told her that I was going to keep you nice and interested."
"Oh, it's been interesting, alright," Kyle said, slowly raising his head up from the table. "But I don't think I should come to the station tonight."
