Just Love Me Already

Decisions. (Kirstie's POV)

Mitch just said no. He said no! What on earth did I do to deserve this? I get up from the couch and grab my jacket and keys. I walk out the door and slam it on my way out. I'm not mad at him. I'm mad at myself. I'm not good enough am I? I start to cry and collapse next to my car. Random thoughts running through my head. I can't think. My head in my palms, I hear the door open. "Kirst?" Mitch says quietly. I don't answer. "I take back my answer. But I'm not giving you an answer yet. I need some time to think." I nod and wipe my eyes. "I know this is hard. I wasn't expecting that answer either." He chuckles trying to lighten things up. I stand up, unlock the door, and climb in to my car. I do all this without making any eye contact with Mitch. I can't breathe. I can't see. And my heart is beating in my ears. I drive away and I hit the steering wheel with my fist. I look back and see Mitch pacing with his hands on the sides of his head, messing up his hair. I think I already know his answer. And it's not going to be good.
