Mr. And mrs. Daredevil

The rain washes away

I wake up to the sound of yelling. I walk out of room wearing just a bath robe. I walk down stairs to see Kyle screaming at Thomas. I go to the kitchen and grab an apple. I walk out to find Thomas staring at me.

"What do you want?" I tell at him.

"You know what I want." He tells me. My eyes widen and he laughs.

"Get away from me. I can still tell!" I threaten. I get up and run to my room.

I change into a white crop top, dark wash skinny jeans, and a leather jacket. I put on knee high combat boots. I tie my hair into a high ponytail and walk out of the house. I get into my car and just start driving. I drive until I reach the coast which is around 2 hours away from my house. I look up to see storm clouds but I get out and walk down to the Peer. I sit in the edge with my feet dangling over the edge. I just stare at the world under the water. The fish look up at nurse shark swimming by and scatter. I feel A drop of water and it starts to rain. I love the rain, you can just dance in it and nobody has to see it. I feel the downpour around me but I don't care. The water turns a murky black as I feel tears streaming down my face. I take off my jacket and sit on it so my butt or the leather doesn't get wet. I just sit there and cry. I feel my mascara from yesterday smearing down my face. I just look at the water and stare. I hear the fumble of thunder but I know I won't move. No force could move me from this spot. I've never been here before but I just feel special. I look down to find a fish staring at me. I laugh. I slump against the wooden post of the peer and just sit there.

After an hour or two the rain is still pouring around me. I hear footsteps pounding on the old boards of the peer behind me. I vaguely here them getting closer.

"Coal?" A male voice says.

I look up to find Boston not one of my brothers.

"Holy crap we were so worried about you. You didn't say anything to your brothers this morning. You have been gone for 7 hours. Kyle called me asking if I knew were you were. I didn't know but I said I'd help look. I was driving around and I saw your truck. I saw you at the end of the peer all slumped over. Coal I thought you were dead. What are you doing here?" He tells at me.

"I don't know what I'm doing here." I tell him.

Boston's point of view

"I dont know what I'm doing here." She tells me.

And for the first time I see the pain in her eyes. Her face is covered in tears, and she soaked cause of the rain. She has sat out here for so long but she's not even cold. But her body is slouched and you can see how lost her soul is. She doesn't look like the Coal I've come to know. This is the first time I see the real Coal. The one with fear and pain hidden in her eyes. 

I pick her up and carry her to my car. I place her in the passengers seat and wrap her in a blanket. I watch as her eyes turn from pained to guilty to full of sorrow. I pull up to her house she gets out. But she pauses and whispers,"Thank you."

Coals point of view

I walk into my house to find all my brothers minus kaleb and Thomas sitting in the living room. They all whip there heads towards me. They take in my appearance, my tear stained face, my rumpled clothes and my grief filled eyes.

Kyle comes over and wraps me in his arms. "I'm so so sorry." He whispers.

I think he knows what happened to me that night. I think he knows but he doesn't know what to do. So he just stands there and hugs me while the other boys go into the kitchen and make dinner. After a while he lets go and I go up to my room to change. I come down to find dinner later out on the table. Spaghetti and meatballs my favorite. We all sit down but Thomas still isn't here. I'm grateful for that.

"Where were you?" Have finally asks.

"I was thinking. I just got worked up so I just drove and ended up somewhere. I'm so so so sorry I made you guys worried I just knew I had to get away." I say.

"It's ok. We were worried sick. We saw Boston outside and basically grilled him until we realized he couldn't possibly know we're you were. But he said he would drive around and look." Kyle tells me.

"Well I'm ok. Just needed to clear my head." I tell them.

By that time we are done with eating so I clear the plates and go into the kitchen to do the dishes. The boys go do there own things. I wash rinse and dry, wash rinse and dry. The same process over and over. I'm almost done when I feel a hand on my waist. I look up to find Thomas smiling down at me. I forget the dishes entirely and punch him square in the jaw. If knocks him out so I finish the dishes and campy go upstairs and ask if I can sleep in Kyle's room tonight.
