Chapter four: Jealous Of Ice Cream

I feel like my heart is in my throat as he moves closer to me. His eyes have that question in them as if asking if I want to do this. I don't move away, instead I move a little closer myself letting him know that I want this.

He's so close I can feel his own breath on my mouth.

"Should have stuck to cleaning cars." Says a familiar voice. Then before I know it a cold spray of water hits us and we spring back from each other. The water continues to drench us until Katie is satisfied.

I feel like I've just woken up from a dream, he was right there. So close!

I stare at her giggling at me, how is this funny?! How!

I just want to yell and scream at her for interrupting us. She knows how I feel about Brady and we could have kissed for freaking sake. How could she? She probably knew what was happening between us but she chose to ruin it with her cold water. So many emotions take hold inside of me; happiness that we nearly kissed meaning that he probably likes me back, anger because she interrupted before I got the chance to find out and sadness because it's so overwhelming. Not to mention I've never had a 'thing' with a boy before and for it to just slip through my fingers feels like I've lost him already.

I don't even want to look at Brady right now so I turn and run. With My hair whipping my face and tears being swept by the wind I don't look back. I run straight to the bus stop and wait impatiently while the bus makes it's way towards me. It soon comes to a stop and I quickly hop on.

"Wait Miss? You have to pay two dollars." The driver says as he holds his arm up stopping me from going any further.

Just great. I have my card but they don't take eftpos and I only have one dollar fifty in coins. Shit! I get off the bus and stand there a second deciding what to do. I hear someone calling my name so I bolt in the other direction. I wind my way through the different streets hoping to lose my trail. Once I'm positive I've lost them I stop and take a breather. I look around, all the shops are open but there's one shop I want to go to in particular; Rockey's Ice Cream Bar. It's the perfect place to drown in my emotions while feasting on delicious ice cream.

I go in and the wonderful smell of ice cream engulfs me. It's not very busy today, most of the booths are free meaning my regular one near the back. I go up to the counter and order a triple scoop of French vanilla with whipped cream and caramel sauce. It's the perfect solution for a confused heart.

I pay for it on my card and go sit down at the booth. The worn and loved booth seats deflate like a pillow as I sit my booty down. My tears are all dried up and I'm determined not to cry again. I'll just focus on my ice cream and try to not think about anything else.

But I can't help it, it's not something I can't forget about that easily.

Brady was about to kiss me for crying out loud! All my waiting was leading up to that moment and I feel as if he was ripped away from me. My stomach sinks at the thought. Not to mention running away probably made me look so stupid and childish. I bury my face in my hands and sob. What have I done?

The waitress brings my ice cream to my table and I sit there looking at it. I wonder what it's like to be ice cream? Knowing everybody loves you and not a care in the world. I think it's safe to say I'm jealous of ice cream.
