I looked at my phone to see it was 1:33 pm. I still hadn’t gotten out of bed. I just wanted to stay in here all day long. I called in sick to work and told Aunt Jody that I wasn’t feeling well but in reality I couldn’t face Danny or anyone as a matter of fact. I hated this. I didn’t know who I wanted to be with, they were both so amazing. I loved them both in a way. My phone buzzed, I was sure it was Katy or Lindsey so I didn’t bother answering but a couple minutes later I got another text. I picked up my phone to see a text from Danny and a text from Austin. Both saying similar things. “Heard you were sick. Are you okay?” I read Danny’s first, then opened Austin’s. “Are you okay? Katy told me you weren’t feeling well.” I ignored them both. I just rolled back into my sheets and fell back asleep. I just couldn’t deal with this right now.

“Kendall.” My aunt was shaking me awake. “What?” I mumbled from under my sheets. “It’s 5 o’clock!” She cried. That made me jump out bed. I couldn’t have slept until 5 o’clock. I was usually up before 11 even if I was up until 10. “Why didn’t you wake me sooner?!” I cried as a pulled on a new outfit. “I didn’t want to bother you.” She said innocently. I gave her a smug look as I put on some light makeup. Even though I wasn’t planning on going anywhere I still liked looking my best. Just in case. “I’m going to work now.” She said. I nodded as she left the room. I put my hair in a ponytail and headed downstairs and grabbed myself some left over pizza for dinner. I couldn’t believe how hungry I was. When I was done cleaning up my plate there was a knock at the patio door. As I walked over I could see who it was, Danny. “Hey. What are you doing here?” I asked as I opened the door. “You didn’t answer my text. I wanted to make sure you were ok.” He said. “Come in.” I said opening the door inviting him in.  He walked in a plopped down on one of the many couches in the living room. I took the seat next to him. “I’m sorry about yesterday.” He said after a moment of silence. “It’s fine.” I said smiling at him. He smiled back. “I miss you.” I blurted. I quickly put my head down, not wanting to meet his gaze. He slid over and put his hand over mine. I looked up to see his beautiful eyes staring into mine. I smiled as I thought he was about to kiss me, but instead he did something I didn’t expect. He started tickling me. I loved to be tickled. Most people hated it but it made me laugh and loosen up. I couldn’t manage to get anything out of my mouth just laughs. He was laughing too, probably at me, but it didn’t bother me. “Um am I interrupting something?” I Danny stopped tickling me and I looked up to see Austin. I quickly sat up and fixed my top that was now half way off showing a tiny piece of my bra. “No, Danny just came by to see how I was feeling.” I said, a little too quickly. “You don’t look sick.” He said coldly. “I should be going.” Danny said standing up. “See you later Kendall.” He said as he opened the patio door. I waved and turned back to Austin who didn’t look too happy. “Yeah I’m feeling a little better.” I admitted honestly. I was feeling a little better; I guess Danny had that effect on me. “What was that about?” He spat. Still not moving an inch. Just as I was about to say something he continued on. “I know you that you and Danny have history. I don’t want to have to compete over my girlfriend with her ex.” He said anger in his voice. I couldn’t blame him. It felt like this was happening all so soon. Even though Austin and I hadn’t been official for too long we have been “together.” Which is what hurt the post. “I—“I started but he cut me off. I had never seen him so angry, or disappointed or whatever. I couldn’t read him well. I just saw fury. “Do you still have feelings for him?” He quickly added. I lowered my head. “I don’t know.” I said. Though it was a lie, I did have feelings for Danny, many feelings. “Then I’m not fighting for your attention Kendall. I can’t.” As he was saying all this, I felt nothing. I didn’t feel hurt or upset like I did with Danny. I just felt, nothing.  “I don’t expect you to.” I managed to say before he could cut me off again. “Goodbye Kendall.” He came over to me and gave me a hug before taking off. It took me a while to digest what had just happened but at least now it was crystal clear to me who I wanted to be with, who I needed to be with.

“You’re going to want to stay in tonight folks! 80% chances of thunder storms!” I rolled my eyes. “Idiot.” It was already thunder storming outside. How could he not see that? I pulled on my University of California hoodie and headed out the patio door. I loved taking walks in the rain, even thunder storms. It was a great time for me to think, I usually thought more clearly too. I made it half way down the beach when an all too familiar voice filled my ears. “What are you doing out here?” I spun around to see Danny locking up The Crab. “I like to take walks in the rain.” I admitted. “It’s lightning.” He pointed out. Duhh. I shrugged my shoulders, I didn’t care. The lightning and thunder never bothered me. “Don’t matter to me.” I said. A cute smile formed across his lips. “I hope I didn’t screw things up with you and Austin today.” He admitted, acting a little shy. He was cute when he was shy. “You didn’t. He did.” I said. “Or I did, or whatever.” We held eye contact for a few seconds before he finally said something. “I’m sorry Ken—“He was cut off by my lips crashing into his. At first he was hesitant but he gave in and kissed me back. The kiss was passionate. Nothing like before, he was definitely holding back before. He was so sweet and gentle. “What was that for?” He asked when we finally broke apart. “I want you.” I whispered into his ear. He stroked my cheek then kissed me again with even more passion. I felt so safe in his strong arms. For the first time in a really long time I felt happy. I felt like I was invincible, like as long as I was with him nothing could happen to me. “You have to promise me one thing.” I said breaking away. “What?” He questioned, out of breath. “You have to promise to only have eyes for me. To only think about me and no other girls.” He laughed. Why was he laughing? “I’m serious!” I playfully punched his arm. “I’m laughing because ever since you got here I’ve only had eyes for you, no one else Kendall.” He pushed my hair behind my ear and kissed me again. I realized right here that there was no doubt in my mind that Danny was the person I was meant to be with and I couldn’t be any happier.
