I woke up but I wasn't in Tristen's arms. He was wrong there was no hope. Jake wanted me to love him but I could never love a man like that. I love Tristen to much to ever do that. The thing is where is Tristen. He should be resting because of his wound.
I got out of bed to look for him but to strong arms wrapped around my waist. "Where do you think you are going?" he whispered in my ear.
I turned around in his arms. I kissed his lips. I pushed him on the bed but before it got to far I pulled away. "You should be resting."
"You're such a tease." I crossed my arms over my chest and pouted like a little kid. "Come on babe don't be like that. I was just kidding." I looked away. "You know you're hot when you're mad." he whisper in my ear which sent shivers down my spine.
"You're so mean" I smiled. He only shook his head and kissed me.
He pulled away and said, "There has got to be a way out of here."
Again there is not hope. He thinks there is but I know for a fact that there is no hope. "Tristen?" he looked at me, "There is no hope anymore. Don't you get it. He always gets what he wants and what he wants is me. It is either I go with him or you and I will die. There is nothing we can do anymore. No hope Tristen no hope." I didn't even realize that I was crying. It was just to much for me now. I love Tristen with everything but Jake won't let me be happy. All he cares about is himself. It's going to suck when I die.
Tristen put his hands on my checks to try and calm me down. "There is hope Kyndall. No matter what you say there is hope. I promise you I will get you out of here. Even it my life depends on it. I will let no one take you away from me. I love you."
"I love you too." I kissed him and went back to sleep. Maybe there was hope or there wasn't. I wasn't sure anymore. I felt like I was being pulled two ways. One way towards hope. The other way towards no hope. I'm not free from Jake nor will I ever be. He finds me every time I hide from him. It's like he always knows my next move. We'll it is my turn to be one step ahead of him.
--------------------------------------------------
Looking around the room when I woke up was different. Like something was going to happen today. But I just couldn't put my finger on it. Was it going to happen later in the day or sooner. Whatever it is I hope it will mean Tristen and I get out of here. I didn't know what the future would be like between me and Tristen. Would he go back to his old ways after everything with Jake is down. Or would he actually keep his word and have a future with me. Everything is just so confusing that I can't even think straight anymore. I need some air.
I get out of bed making sure not to disturb Tristen. I walk over to the door and surprisingly nobody was guarding it. Whatever, so I just continued walking until I reached the front door. I was having a massive headache and I definitely needed some air to clear my thoughts. Walking outside was like a breath of fresh air. I saw a swinging chair. I walked over to it and sat down looking out in the distance. It was beautiful, trees surrounding a beautiful, frozen lake. The way the sun glistens off of the ice. I couldn't picture anything more beautiful. My thoughts were interrupted when I heard the door swing open. I looked over and there stood Jake staring at me. Jake was the last person I wanted to see today. Why didn't he just get the picture that I don't like him. He came over and sat down beside me. I ignored his appearance and continued looking at the gorgeous view. "Kyndall you know you can talk to me about anything right?"
"Yeah I know, but my told me to never talk to strangers."
"But we're not strangers Kyndall. We know each other very well actually."
"Really Jake we know each other so well. Then please tell me if I knew you so well then how come I didn't know you would take me here. Why would follow me everywhere I go. Crush my dreams when I think I'm free. You keep trying to break Tristen and I up. Can't you tell we are happy with each other. But most importantly why you beat me up all those years. Please tell me that Jake because I honestly don't know. I felt like it was a slap in the face because I actually thought I loved you. But you some how always prove me wrong. Please tell me how we know each other so well if I have no answers to those questions." I began crying because I just couldn't take it any longer. He touched my shoulder, "NO DON'T JAKE!"
With that I stood up. "If you don't believe me when I saw Tristen is not god for you why don't you go and look at your precious boyfriend."
"What do-"
"Just go look at your precious boyfriend. And if you finally believe me when I say Tristen is no good for you then you can leave. But when your heart is broken don't come crying to me." He walked away after saying that.
What does he mean. Is he saying Tristen is cheating on? This can't be true, I have to find this out myself. I am running up to my room and when I open the door I find something I never wanted to see. I see Tristen lying in bed with a girl straddling him. Her hands on his chest and they were about ready to kiss before I walked in. "So it's true isn't Tristen. You were cheating on me." I said before I ran out the door crying.
I couldn't believe that I was being lied to this whole time and I actually believed him. I believed him when he said he loved me. I believed every word he said to me. I can't believe this could actually be happening to me right now. First Jake now Tristen. I should have known Tristen wouldn't change. "I'm such an idiot."
"Kyndall you're not an idiot. I am."
I turned around and saw Tristen. He was the last person I wanted to see right now. "Go away Tristen I have nothing to saw to you."
"Kyndall please."
I stood up and turned my head towards him. "You know what sucks Tristen. Is actually falling for a guy I knew I wasn't right for. I fell anyway cause I thou thou were different. I thought you actually cared. I thought you were different Tristen, I actually thought that you were. Well I guess I thought wrong because my heart is broken. When you said you loved me did you actually mean or were you just playing around." I waited for him to answer. When he never answered I was so fed up with this act that I had to get away. "Here Tristen take back your 'promise ring' because I certainly don't need it. After everything that happened between us this is how it ends. I should have known you would never change. When we go back go school you won't see me ever again. I'm moving away from everything that has caused me pain. A fresh start is the only option I have to get away from you. And to actually think Jake was the bad guy in this situation but you were the one lying the whole time."
I turned around and started walking away. "Please Kyndall don't let it end like this."
I turned around one last time. "You have it all wrong Tristen. You are the one that is ending it like this." I turned back around and started walking. I didn't know where I was walking to but I knew I had to get away from everybody that has caused me pain. No matter how difficult it was for me I had to do it. A fresh start would make everything better for me. Well at least hope.
-----------------------------------------------------------
I arrive back at my house. It still looks the same even tho I haven't been here for a while. I packed everything I needed in my car. I had enough money to start a new life. Walking outside of my house with everything packed in the car I looked back at the house. The house that I grew up in. The house that I would no longer see any more. This all was because of one guy that I couldn't stand. I had to leave and get away from everything. Everything that has happened with Tristen, I just couldn't stand living with someone I knew would never change.
Driving down the street was hard because I lived on the same street as Tristen. Going by his house was probably the most horrible thing I ever had to do. When I was passing his house I saw him standing out on his from porch staring at me while I drive by. This situation is just to much for me. I had to start my new life and soon. Not living in this town anymore was the only option for me. I finally read a sign 'WELCOME TO CONNORVILLE.'
Wow I have been driving for 5 hours. New life here I come.
