Regret, Chapter 13

~Raylynn P.O.V.~

I was just about to say goodnight when I felt a pair of lips on mine. My eyes widened and I stared into the green ones that were owned by Preston. I felt his soft lips on mine and then he pulled back, I would be lying if I said I felt sad when his warm lips left mine.

"Ray I am so sorry! I was just gonna kiss your cheek but then you turne-"

I cut him off and by laughing and I hugged him. I felt him wrap his arms back around me and pull back and kiss his cheek.

"Thanks for tonight Preston. I'm really happy now, and I feel lighter inside. So thanks and goodnight. I will see you tomorrow at school, and I want to surprise Radley with all of this so will you not tell him. I...I also want him to regret hurting me." I say and blush, starting into Preston's dark green eyes.

He nods, almost speechless and I laugh again and get out of his car and wave goodbye before stepping into my house. I walk up the stairs and open my mothers door and see Laine and my mother sleeping on the same bed. I felt bad that I was helped to get over part of the pain of our loss, but I also don't want my family to go threw what I did with preston. I knew my mom would break down, and my sister would snap and beat Preston up. I also knew they were getting over their own ways, so I just went to change and look in the mirror for a few minutes before falling asleep thinking about the kiss.

~Radley's P.O.V.~

I woke up in the morning and got ready for school. I do feel guilty that I yelled at Raylynn. I know how she felt about not being able to handle being around someone that you love when you shouldn't. Although I felt good with Paula, I had thought more of Raylynn lately, but I fought hard enough to be with Paula. It's not fair that I finally catch the girl of my dreams and then this other women comes along to steal my sanity... So I will stay with Paula, I earned to be happy with the girl I tried so hard to get. It would be better if Paula could have held tighter to my heart because to be honest I think another Bubblegum haired girl stole it. But I wont let Paula understand that yet, I will give her time so maybe she will steal it back before I go crazy. I went to Preston and he was smiling awkwardly the whole time he drove us to school. I was gonna ask him until he parked and ran up to this girl and grabbed her arm. I was annoyed that he just left me for this chick and it wasn't the one he confessed to just a day or two ago! I got out of the car and walked over to Preston and was gonna bitch him out until and saw who the girl really was.

~Raylynn's P.O.V.~

Earlier this morning I had to explain what happened last night to Laine and my mother. They were smiling and giggling the whole time, of course I skipped the part about father and the grieving. It seems the hassel of explaining was worth it because they were super happy and willing to do my hair and makeup this morning. I was now super thankful as I saw Preston's happy face and I had to refrain from hugging him. Because when I looked to his right I saw a very shocked and red faced Radley. I didn't blush back surprisingly, I only waved and smiled.

~Preston's P.O.V.~

I ran up to Raylynn after a long and anxious car ride. I wanted to see Radley's face so bad so when I finally saw Radley walk up to me and see Raylynn. It took all my power to not piss my pants laughing and kiss her infant of her. Yes, I really did want him to see she was gonna be mine and I didn't care if he was my little brother or not. I wanted to see him regret his choices.

~Radley's P.O.V.~

I looked at Raylynn and she had perfectly symmetrical eyeliner circling her light green eyes that popped out like a cats. I loved how her dark eyeshadow faded off to her dark eyebrows. Her long Bubblegum hair was now shaved on the sides and back with the top section longed and curled. It laid down on the left side of her face perfectly. The dark brown curled hair faded into a light blonde on the ends. Her lips were glossed with and a few shades pinked and darker then before. She wore black high waisted shorts with a periwinkle silk tank top. I couldn't stop the blush that crept onto my face. She was beautiful.

"Ray....." I could see in her eyes that she was still hurt a little from yesterday. "I'm sorry I said that b-"

"Raylynn! You look as radiant as you did yesterday maybe even more, I am happy that we could have that super fun date yesterday. I really hope we can go on another soon." I look at preston, and my heart drops slightly and I remember I have a girlfriend, I have Paula. What was I going to say? That I actually love her too? but...to be honest I do. and now I have to watch her be with my brother... what have I done... I have ruined my last chances. Because when they end up choosing Preston I know they chose happiness. And I have to live with knowing I wasn't her happiness. I look at Raylynn and could barely hold a straight face, but I think I was failing at it.

"Preston I think I will have to get back to you on that." I look at her and I see how miserable I look in the reflection I see in her eyes. But when I really look into her eyes I don't see the same emotion I always saw when she was looking at me all those times these past two years.

I may be confused and she isn't helping it right now, but I think she's trying to tell me it's not over. Oh god how I hope she's not completely lost, because it feels like she's just out of my reach looking the other way. Maybe if I call out to her louder then before she will come running back, and I can feel her warmth once again. And maybe thats what I was doing, I was calling out louder to her, because when I snap out of my thoughts I felt a her warmth again. But threw a pair of unfamiliar lips smashed against mine, and a soft face cupped between my hands. 

~Sorry I continuously switched point of views. I thought it could add suspense, but i don't know if it did. I know I don't have tons of readers, but for the ones that are still reading thanks. It means a lot to me!~~
