"Your heart's a mess
You won't admit to it
It makes no sense
But I'm desperate to connect
And you, you can't live like this." - Gotye

hi, it's been a long ass time.
here's the update that I tried to work on countless times but could never finish. it's pretty short and kind of a filler.

i guess before you read, you'd need a little reminder. so previously, jaiden and coral go to a party at logan's place, kris is there too and coral accidently ruins alicia's bag which causes a slight stir and jaiden's nowhere to be seen so kris takes coral to his house because her parents are away and shes locked out of her house. she falls asleep on the way over and in the morning, kris and coral get into a heated situation which comes to an abrupt stop when jaiden shows up to pick her up and from there, they first stop at delilahs so coral can freshen up and then they go to jaiden's parent's house.

anyways, the books very close to a thousand so thanks a billion and it may sound like im not as happy but trust me i am, ill use some other time to show my gratitude. thanks again and enjoy!

Chapter 20:

I took deep breaths and smiled like a fool, I still felt as if he was close.
Everything's going too fast, times jumping, flying.
After splashing my face with water and straightening myself up, I walked to the back door. I silently prayed he wasn't outside with everyone but a part of me hoped he was.

He was. the fire shifting in front of his image, his face wrapped in a orange highlight. Distorted. Just like the thought of him, it ached in my mind and throbbed in my veins.

Without realizing, me and Kris had gotten so close over the last three weeks or so. Did he think about me as much as I thought about him?

This is the same guy that drives my blood to a boiling point.

Without thinking twice, I stepped out. The conversation was low as I stared at my feet making my way back to the fire. I could feel the eyes on me. I was at the house for Jaiden and his family but that had lost all its meaning sometime. The fact at hand was, Kris was around. And when I'd go home, what Margaret made for dinner wouldn't matter. Kris and his closeness would only matter.

I sat down. Everything was as still as the silence cutting through the trees.

Everyone seemed to be in their own minds. No one speaking, every creak in the dirt, every branch breaking, echoed me.

I refrained myself from looking up at him but I couldn't help it, I looked up anyways and my heart skipped a beat, skipped a lot of beats. His hair stood and fell over his forehead slightly, jet black glaciers covering his forehead like the blanket of stars in the night sky just above us. It was beautiful, he was beautiful.

Kris

She looked like she just saw a ghost. I liked having that affect on her. If she hated me as much as she claimed too, why didn't she stop our little situation in the kitchen from playing out? This definitely made my night, having this over Jaiden. The one girl he valued, having her closer to me than to him.

There was unfamiliar warmth I felt around her, It wasn't the fire. It made me feel content and easy, I was amused.

She looked so anxious, it shook something in me but I didn't care. What was she worried about? It's not like Jaiden likes her anyways, he just needs to pass some time.
