The Triplets' Fighter Luna by Kylie K

Fighter 19

When I got to school the next day, everyone was staring at me. I knew they were trying to see if I would reveal anything to them about the photo that they had received. Jasper showed me the message that went along with the photo. Our lovely Nova with an older man. I wonder what other secrets she has

It was just meant to imply that I was dating an older man and I knew that it was for the triplets sake that she did it. She probably truly believed it as well. But that doesn't make it real or right to send it to everyone at school.

I managed to ignore everyone and ever since I had gone after Izzy during volleyball, they all knew not to really say anything in case I went off at them as well.

I mean, if I am game enough to go off at Izzy, then the rest of them are fair game and a lot easier to scare.

But while I was at my locker I was quickly pulled out of the way and my locker door was slammed shut.

I turned to look at the guy who had grabbed my arm and I was looking into the beautiful and mesmerizing eyes of Tyler.

He held up his phone and showed me the photo.

"Yeah. I bet you were the first one she sent that to." I said.

"I thought we were getting along pretty well. Our hike through the forest, in the clearing. I really thought that we were getting along, getting closer. And then I get this photo." He said.

I stood there waiting for him to stop but all the while I was staring at him with no emotions on my face at all.

"Tyler. That's Logan. He's my mother's ex boyfriend." I said.

"What?" He asked, confused.

"He's only about 8 years older than me. A lot younger than my mother. But he came here to check up on me. He wanted to make sure that I'm alright. He knows what my mother is like but there is absolutely nothing going on with us. We became really good friends when he was dating my mother. He is one of the very few men that she's dated who I've actually liked." I explained.

"So, there's really nothing going on between you two?" He asked.

"Hell no. He's more like a father to me. Never mind the age gap. Maybe now that he's not dating my mother we might be friends. But I've never thought of him like that. Especially not while he was screwing my mother." I explicitly pointed out.

"Yeah. That makes sense. A guy that goes for both mother and daughter is a little sick." He
