"Katy wait." She turns around and widens her eyes even more. She shakes her head and walkes away. I'm so confused.
Katy's P.O.V.
I run through the café teary eyed. I feel bad for doing that to John but I had to get out of there before anything happened.
"Katy wait" I heard John yell. I stopped and closed my eyes. He was making everything worse by yelling my name. I continued walking in hope he would stop calling me and just come.
I walked through the doors to the car. I tried to open the doors but they were locked. I looked over to the entrance of the café and saw the one person I was wishing I never saw again. Russell. He was walking towards me and I didn't know what to do. I turned around, so my back was facing him, thinking that, that was gonna make him stop.
"Shit" I mumbled. I closed my eyes tight, waiting for his arrival.
A couple seconds later I felt a pair of hands on my shoulders. I breathed in, preparing for the worst.
"Katy, are you ok?" I recognized the voice and opened my eyes.
"John?" I turned around surprised.
"Katy, are you okay?" John asked. I looked around for any sign of Russell, but I didn't see him.
"Uh, can we go?" I asked ever so quietly. I turned my head the look somewhere other than his questionable stare.
"No, Katy what's wrong?" He turned my head so that I was looking at him again. I froze, not knowing what to say. I didn't want him to know who I saw because he'll think I'm overreacting or something.
"Nothing, can we just go?" I pulled from his grip and walked to the passenger door.
"Damn" I whisper. "I'll be right back, I forgot my purse."
"Right." I barely heard him say. I sigh and walk into the café. When I walk in almost everyone stares at me like I'm a alien or something. I ignore it and walk to my table. I search for my purse and find it under the table. I grab it and walk out. As soon as I get out I see that John got in the car and turned it on.
I felt bad for not telling him but I just didn't want to. I kinda speed walk to the car and get in.
The whole car ride home was totally silent. Not a word was said. I couldn't shake the feeling that he was mad. I hated when he was mad.
We arrived home moments later, still in silence. He parked in the long driveway and we both got out. I walked to the door and, of course, I didn't have a key so I had to wait for John to unlock it like a child. He came walking up to me and pulled out his keys. I watched as he unlocked the locks as fast as possible. I didn't think much of it.
"Thank you" I said.
"Mmm" he hummed and walked in the opposite direction as me. I stopped walking and turned to him.
"Are you mad?" I asked.
"Nope" he popped the p. I knew he was by the way he was acting.
"John, I'm sorry." I said. I walked towards him a little.
"Oh, its totally fine" he said and followed it up with a sarcastic smile. I sighed.
"I know its not" I said quietly. I didn't want to argue but I have an idea that that's what's going to happen.
"Of course its not, Katy you can't just go running and NOT tell me what's wrong." He started to get louder.
"I know and I'm sorry." I say, still quietly.
"Katy, why do you do this? You always do this. You shut me out and I can never understand you. Please tell me why." He leans on the table next to him waiting for my answer.
"I don't know" I said. I looked down and silently begged for this to end.
"But you do. You do know. All I ever want to do is make you feel better but you never let me. You try to avoid it and keep it bottled up inside. That's not healthy." He lowers his voice a bit.
"Yeah," I clear my throat. "I know its not" I continue. He was right. I do bottle up all my feelings and I take it out on other people. He walked towards me and took my hands.
"Katy, I'm worried when you do that. I love you to much to see you like that."
"I know, and I'm sorry." I say and squeeze his hands.
"No you don't need to apologize you just need to not keep all your emotions inside, because one day your just gonna crack and neither of us will know what to do." All those words were right. One day I am gonna crack.
I noddedy head. He let go of my hands and pulled me in for a much needed hug. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he lifted me up, me wrapping my legs around his waist.
"I love you so much." He said.
"And I love you" I said back, squeezing him tighter.
