Devoting Love

Love Never Lasts

After I droped off Kayla, I  sped home, almost hitting a squarrel crossing the street. I  finally made it home in one piece, and I ran upstairs and took a shower. I got out and looked at the clock, I only had about an hour left to get ready. I  ran to my  closet, practically triped over my shoes and other crap that was  lying around in my room. I  finally found a dress with the price tag still hanging off of it. I took the tag off, trying not to rip the dress and put it on. I heard the doorbell ring, and I  ran down the stairs. I  saw my mom about to answere the door when I triped on the first step and fell flat on my  face. I  got up off the ground and slip on my black stud bow flats. I  was already clumsy so I  didn't want to  risk twisting my  ankle wearing heels. I  answered the door only to see Jake staring at me in awe.

"Wow! Umm are you....umm...ready to...umm...go?" He stutters trying to find the right words to say.

"Yeah, Jake, I am. You can stop staring at me you know that right?"

"Umm, sorry, your just so.....umm....beautiful!" still stuttering.

"Thank you." I  said blushing.

He led me to his car and I  still mangaged to ask where we were headed.

"It's a secret. Just wait and we'll get there." he says assuringly.

We ended up going to a romantic restaurant- if Olive Garden counts  as a romantic place.- we go inside and find a seat. We ordered our food and drinks while snacking on some bread sticks.

"I need to go to the bathroom, I'll be right back." I  said and walked to the restrooms. After finishing up with makeup, I head to my  table only to see Kimberly kissing Jake. All I  could do at this point is just stare. Then I  let out a little whine and ran home because I  didn't want anyone to see me cry. I  ran all the way home, thank God I  wore flats I thought, because I  would so be triping over my  feet every second if I wore heels. I  got home, ran up to my room, and slamed the door. I  changed into my PJs and fell asleep crying on my pillow.

The next morning my alarm went off singing the "Catalyst" by Linkin Park. My eyes were so red and puffy from crying all last night. I got up and put on my Disney Winnie the Pooh Eeyore Moody Raglan and my black skinny jeans and converse. I slipped on my Eyes Set to Kill hoodie on over my shirt. I decided to text Kayla and tell her that she needed to find another way to school. I walked downstairs and grabbed my  Poptart and headed out. Once I arrived, I saw Jake leaning up against his car. I got out of my truck  trying so hard to ignore him, but that didn't really help.

"Dude, Rachael, where were you last night? I've been looking all over for you? What happened?"

"What happened!" I spat. "Hmn, why don't you go and ask Kimberly? Maybe she will answere that question for you! " I managed to yell and hold back tears.

"What the hell are you talking about?" he asked with a worried and confued tune in his voice.

" You know good and well what I'm talking about, Jake! i saw you liplocking her last night at OUR table." still yelling and now having people looking at you.

"WHAT! No, no she was kissing me. Just let me explai-"

"NO, just don't, don't even," I said cutting him off.  I walked right into school.

I got to my locker and headed to fist period. All day I ignored Jake and apparently it seems to be working. He didn't even try to talk to me, not even during lunch, which was strange considering he always does. After school was over, I noticed his car wasn't there. "Did i do something wrong?" I asked yourself. "Maybe he was trying to tell the truth, it's just i never gave him a chance to explain himself." I got into my truck thinking about what happened and once I arrived at  home, I end up crying and found someone sitting at my doorstep.
