'I never pretended to care'

Johnny

Leaving that message with Mackenzie kind of gave me comfort, knowing that she knew how I felt.

I slipped away to the beach side, somewhere that gave me more comfort then anywhere.

Like a place to think.

To my surprise, Hayden was sat by the rocks upon my arrival.

'You okay?' I asked sitting beside him.

'Yeh' he mumbled.

'Just thinking?'

'Yeh'

He had a tone of confusion.
Not sad, or happy.
Almost emotionless.

His curly brown hair slightly blowing in the seas breeze.

"Annie is confusing me" he suddenly blurted.

"Why? what's she done?" I asked.

"No the feelings I have for her are confusing me"

My mouth created an 'o' shape in realisation.

"You like Annie Leblanc" I chuckled nudging his arm slightly.

He laughed.

"Yeh mate I do" he smiled.
"Why you out here"

"Apparently I don't care about my own baby momma" I explained.

"She going to go through emotions like that, she's a child with one inside her she wasn't planning, that's got to be rough" Hayden explained helping me see her side to the story.

"Thanks mate"

The waves splashed against the rocks and there was calm, complete calm. Almost tranquility. First time in forever had I felt a feeling so relaxing.

"I'm going to talk to her" I told Hayden before hopping up and tapping him on the back.

Upon my arrival back at the house, Mackenzie was at the door, tear stained.

She ran and hugged me. A warm living hug.

"I'm so sorry Johnny, I don't doubt you do care, I need you" she mumbled into my chest.

"It's okay, I'm sorry too" I murmured resting my head on hers.


It's a short one.
