glass touch

Chapter 20

That evening I try not to think of the events of today. Tomorrow I definetly I wount even be coming out of my room. If I do all of the same people might swarm me again just to tell me the same weird things they've been telling me. Today was my personal hell I don't want it to happen again.

Well there was one thing that I wouldn't mind happening again.

Aaron's kiss was still on my mind. It was something that just wouldn't go away no matter how much I tried to forget about it. The kisses he gave me had felt different than when other guys had kissed me, which was rarely. But even when I was kissed it felt short, sweet. It was nothing compared to this. Aaron's lips on my skin felt passionate and the feeling made my heart pound faster. But something about being kissed by him made me feel guilty as if his kiss was forbidden.

It was so much more than any other kiss.

His touch felt the exact same way. I want him to touch me: I cant get enough of it. But something about it makes me feel like I'm making a mistake. How could I be? Whenever I'm around Aaron no matter how much of a jerk he is I always feel content.... I always feel like everything is right with the world.

I wiped the thoughts from my mind. I didn't need all of the confusion right now, instead I pulled out my laptop and replied back to my dad and Paige, something I'd been procrastaniting about.

Subject: about my grades

Dad,

I noted that in your last email you wanted to know about how my grades are doing, that is indertminable right now classes just started. I'll mail you my report card once I get it or I'll give it to you when I come home for Thanksgiving.

Yes I will be home for Thanksgiving.

I just wanted to inform you about all this. I hope you feel a little more content after reading this. Please dad don't worry yourself so much you don't have to stress over me. I'm just fine If I wasn't I would tell you.

Love,

Caitlyn.

Subject: tons of detail for you....

Paige,

Just wait til you hear all of this,

These details are better than any details that have ever been give; even when Kate Montogomery was busted for giving blowjobs in the boy's bathrrom over at Burke.

First: there is this really hot guy that has been flirting with me. he's even asked me out on a date but all of my friends here have kept warning me about him. I mean he is the bad boy tue but all in all he's a nice guy at heart.

Second theres another guy.yes another guy I really like Cass the first guy I told you about but theres something about this guy that feels even deeper than what I feel for Cass... his name is Aaron. It's really stranfe. Every time I'm around him everything is a blur.i don't want to say im in love because this cant be love. He doesn't want anything to do with me.

Like at all.

I guess im just kind of confused. Icould use a little bit of advice? Could you help?

Sincerely

Caitlyn.

After that I was about to get to sleep but instead I decided that I needed to get something done. I still needed to choose a song for my dance on Friday, quickly I shuffled through my playlist on my computer. I wanted to do something romantic something that speaks to everyone watching even if my movements can't. I'm not looking forward to dancing. I'm petrified.but I have to dance, I'm using good music for it.

Then I freeze when I see the perfect song.

Speechless Memphis May Fire.

I've always loved that song.. it was perfect for something like this nad I know I have the album on disc.i can just bring the disc in on Friday and I know it'll sound better over a stero rather than my computer speakers.

I go to bed that night feeling a little more settled. The only thing that keeps me awake is the thought of Aaron but that only lasts for about an hour. I fall asleep before Claire is able to get back from having dinner with her parents.

When Monday finally arrives, I'm ecstatic. Sunday had been so boring. I'd been so afraid to comeout of my room the entire day,so there was nothing to do.all that happened to me on Sunday was getting free pizza from Claire. She'd ordered it for us.

When I got to second hour that day I'm feeling a little more refreshed. Today I'm ready to fence. For once I'm actually hoping Kieran or Vivian calls on me.

But suddenly my confindence is destroyed.

"you cant make me do this."

Aaron's voice floats over the crowd of students. I look to my left. The door to Kiearn'soffice is cracked open a little. I can faintly see too figures one standing up and one sitting down at the other side of Kieran's desk. Faintly two voices came though the door. I lean in a little and listen on the other side of the door so they cant see me.

"Oh but I can, Aaron I'm your teacher..." then he traialed off and said something I couldn't quite understand. "You may have a higher power over me....but that menas next to nothing here."

"You're going to pay for this. You know I'm trying to avoid her. I cant even tutor her Kirean. And when this all goes to hell you'll be the one to blame this time. Not me." Aaron spat.i've never heard him so angry but Kieran sounded equally unmerciful.

"That's not true. You're the one who's giving into your sweet, sweet Caitlyn. I'm just giving it a little push," I heard Kieran get up out of his seat, I was shocked at what I'd just heard and extremely confused.but when Kieran's voice began to come closer to the door I began to retreat. "You will continue your tutoring sessions..."
