Unexpected Love

Chapter Six: I Want You...

Chapter Six:

As we walked in silence my mind began to wonder. Should I call him back and apologize, or maybe I should wait and see if he calls back. I was so confused; I didn’t know what was right or what was wrong. What was left or right, up or down, my mind is such a tangled mess right now and I have no one to blame but myself.

"Hello! Earth to Gabby!" Kyrie waved her hand in front of my face. "You ok girl?"

Blinking rapidly, I shook myself out of my thoughts, once I focused I turned to look at her, "What?"

"You ok?" She put a hand on my shoulder, concern evident in her tone and in her eyes.

As I stopped walking to answer her it seemed as if everything that was running through my mind overwhelmed me all at once and I just fell to the ground sobbing, it was like déjà vu because I did the same thing when I found out Cayden was gone. "No I'm not ok Ky, I just don't know what to think, or what to do! I'm so confused."

"Well Hun why don't you start from the beginning, about what happened back at the house before I came over. Maybe I can help you figure out whatever it is you’re trying to figure out."

"Well Cayden called me when I got home. We had a very long discussion that included a lot of yelling. I said some rude things to him that I shouldn't have said, but he said some mean things to!" I sobbed as I picked myself up from where I had fallen on the sidewalk and moved over to the curb to sit down.

Kyrie sat herself down beside me, "I'm pretty sure you didn't mean to say those mean things and neither did he. I don't know from personal experience but I'm sure it's extremely hard to talk to each other again after leaving things on unhappy terms and the fact that it's been a long time since you two have spoken to each other is a big part of it too.

Still crying I jumped up and started to pace. Not paying attention to where I was pacing I looked up and noticed I was in the middle of the road just as a ugly green SUV came barreling down the road towards me.

"Gabriella! Watch out!" Kyrie yelled as she started to run towards me. Her voice shook as she yelled. I’m sure she was as scared as I was right now. I couldn’t bring myself to move as I watched the car come closer to me. The car skidded to a stop just as I finally unfroze and was trying to jump out of the way. The driver jumped out after throwing it into park. I had to do a double take; it really was Bradin standing there in front of me. Well that's just great, I thought. I really need him to see me like this. It will just give him something else to make fun of me for.

His face was plastered with shock and rage as he ran over to me. "What the hell were you thinking Gabriella?" He grabbed my arms and started shaking me. "Are you that stupid? You could have been hurt! You’re lucky I saw you and slammed on the brakes."

“Well you shouldn’t have been speeding through the neighborhood to begin with!” I snapped back.

“You shouldn’t be standing in the middle of the road like an idiot either!” He snapped back just as angry as I was.

All I wanted was for him to stop shaking me and get away from me. I am not in the mood to deal with him yelling at me too. I was hit with a brilliant idea to get him away from me…Hopefully it works. Here goes nothing. Staring into his eyes I slowly shook my right arm out of his grasp and ran my finger along his jaw, "I need you..." I sighed as I trailed my finger down along his neck, "And I want you..." I continued as I put my hands on his hard chest, "To get out of my face!" I finished, pushing him as hard as I could, "I'm not in the mood for you to yell at me or shake the hell out of me right now. I wasn't paying attention, my bad. End of story."
