It All Started With A Kiss (EDITING!)

Chapter Ten: Making Up

Enjoy<3

_____

My mind began to race when Reese said that we needed to talk. When the guy says we need to talk, doesn't that normally mean he wants to break up? I knew it was just too good to be true, but hey, what could I do? I did nothing wrong. If anything we were both in the wrong.

Could Reese really apologize about yesterday then break up with me today?

I really hope he didn't want to break up. I mean I don't love him yet. Ya, I am starting to fall for him. But I most definitely did not love him.

I had finally managed to look up from staring in my lap and bring myself to look at Reese. He seemed tired and exhausted. Had he been up all night? Subconsciously I brought my hand and touched the bruising eye. Reese winced and I instantly dropped my hand. Just looking at him I could tell that he was sorry. He just looked so... broken.

"Y-ya," I asked him. My voice cracked and I bit the inside of my cheek to keep the tears that had begun to build up in my eyes back.

"I don't know what was wrong me yesterday." I listened as he let out a deep sigh before continuing. "I don't even know what to began to say to you Alison. What I did to you was inexcusable."

"Da-"

"Just let me talk 'kay?" I nodded my head so he could continue. He was right, what he had done yesterday was so wrong on so many different levels. I had not told Claire what had happened yet. I knew she would be absolutely pissed when I told her. She worshiped the ground Reese walked, okay not so much now that we had started dating, but she definitely idolized him.

She would not let Reese live it down. I knew when I told her she would tell me to make him build monuments to get my trust back, if that was what he and I both wanted. I knew I wasn't going to forgive him so easily, well, or so I told myself.

"I know this is no excuse but I was just so stressed and annoyed yesterday. It wasn't you... it was all me."

Ah, now Reese was so using the cliché saying, 'it's not you, it's me'. I didn't say anything, I just let him continue. "It is just that Max really is sending me bad signals. I really don't trust him. He wants me to be his best man, and I don't want to ruin it, but Rainie is going to ask you to be her maid of honor. She is only asking you so that we can be together all night."

I didn't really know Rainie that well but it was sweet what she wanted to do. It was sweet but didn't she want one of her best friends to be her MOH? I guess I would talk to her about it later when she asks me, if she still asks me.

"It is just that Max gives me a really bad feeling, like I said before. He pissed me off that morning thinking that he could get away with bossing me around. Psh, ya right." Reese muttered something so low under his breath I couldn't catch what he said. I frowned. I wanted to know what he mumbled, but didn't ask.

"And then it didn't help when the two of you sat next to each other at lunch and then when you were acting weird right after lunch. I could tell there was more to it but I didn't ask. I figured you would tell me when you were ready."

He was right, I would tell him when I was ready. News flash, I don't think I would ever be ready to tell him what had happened. He would only think I was weird.

"Then before we left to go to the carnival Max said some things to me and so once again I was pissed. Then you called me an ass.. That was when I just snapped." Reese sighed before running a hand through his dark hair. He looked down at me and his blue eyes seemed to penetrate right through me. I looked down and fiddled with a loose string on my blouse.
