The Boy in The Rain: A Dalton Rapattoni Fanfiction

Chapter 19

I was driving without a destination. I finally pulled into a parking lot because I could hardly see through the tears. I parked my car and just sat there crying. I took my phone from my purse. I had over twenty missed calls from him and what looked like fifty texts. I was getting them just holding my phone. I turned it off frustrated. I didn't care what he had to say, he kissed my sister and I would never be able to forgive him. It was at that moment I realized that I had no where to stay. Maya had just left for Ohio and Savannah was grounded. There was no way I was going to go home. I would kill my sister and if Dalton was still there it would break my heart even more to see him again. An idea popped into my head about where I could stay but I wasn't sure. Since it was better than my house I restarted my car and drove there. I parked my car in the driveway and dried my tears as best as I could but my eyes were still red and puffy. I was grateful that I had been too lazy to put mascara on or it would have been all over my face. I took my purse from the front seat and walked up to the front door. I rang the doorbell and waited. Cole opened his door and looked surprised to see me. He looked at my face and could immediately tell that something was wrong.

"What's wrong?" He asked. I couldn't hold it in anymore and began to cry again. He held his arms out for a hug. I hugged him and he smelt like soap, Cole and fruit loops.

"I broke up with Dalton because he was kissing my sister." I said as I ruined his shirt with my tears. "I know I'm kind of imposing but I was wondering if I could stay here for a while?" I asked hesitantly.

"Of course, you can stay here for as long as you need. Why don't you go put your car in the garage then come inside." I nodded and walked back to my car. He opened his garage and I drove in. I hopped out of the car and followed him into the house. He went into the kitchen and motioned for me to sit down.

"Are you going to be okay? Do you need to talk about it?" He sounded so concerned and I couldn't keep it all bottled up. There was no one else to talk to so I spilled the whole story.

"I accidently left my phone in my basement early this morning before I went to Maya's because she was leaving to go to Ohio. So after she drove away I went back to my house and I found Dalton kissing my sister. I grabbed my phone and broke up with him, and then I drove here." I said it all with one breath. I had to let it out and I felt good. It was the longest I had gone without crying in the past hour. He just sat there in silence probably pitying my horrible life.

"That sucks. He probably has a really good reason because he liked you a lot. I didn't think that he would ever do anything to hurt you. Have you talked to him yet?" He asked.

"No, he texted me a lot and called me but I just turned off my phone because I'm not ready to face him yet."

"Okay, well you're going to have to talk to him at some point, but you can stay here in the guest room." He said leading me up the stairs to his guest room. It was decorated very plain. The comforter on the bed was blue and the walls were white. There was one painting on the wall. I sat down on the bed.

"Okay well I've had a really long day and I'm really tired now so I'm going to go to bed now."

"Okay my room is just down the hall if you need anything."

"Thanks so much it's really nice of you."

"No problem." He said smiling before leaving the room and closing the door. I lay down on the bed and fell asleep thinking of what I was going to do.
