Making It Last

Chapter Five

He stood there. Obviously completely oblivious to me, and stuck on her. I was shooked, and hurt, and over all bewildered. Reece Black a cheater? Wait no, he's not cheating, we aren't together, so he can sleep around with any slut he wants, fuck him and his games. Leia was unaware as well, she was talking to me, I think. But I couldn't hear anything, I was too mad. She then stopped and looked at me. "Carella?" I didn't say anything. She then shook me, "Carella, babe, what's wrong?" She then looked where I was looking and saw it. "Oh." Was all she said, I just nodded. In the moment of hurt, he looked over at me, and those blue eyes met my green ones. He looked at me and looked down at the bags he was holding for her. I somehow pulled my eyes away from his and walked away. Leia followed.

After my, maybe, fifth step I heard Leia say something and I turned around, and he was right behind me. I looked at him, and I could tell by the look on his face he could read the emotions coming off of me. He took a step closer, close enough to feel his body heat, and smell his expensive cologne. A spark shot through me, my body was saying I had already missed him but my mind said, slap him, or kick him right in the baby maker. "Carella, please just listen, that's all I ask." And all I really wanted was air, it was to hot and stuffy, he was to close and I felt dizzy. So I turned on my heal and walked the rest of the way to the doors. In my mind I knew that Reece Black has never gotten rejected, but I gave him two rejections in the time I've known him, and each time they seem to end the same, I walk away, without a look back and get in a car.

Leia was right behing me thank the lord. I didn't need to be sitting in a car with him not even a yard away from it. Leia jumped in, and I fired up my baby, and went home way past the speed limit. When we pulled up to my garage, Leia finally spoke. "Carella, I'm sorry." I nodded. I wasn't sure if I was sad or angry but one thing I knew for sure was my body missed him, we missed his heat and warmth, and happiness he usually brings. Wow, two days with a boy and I'm like this. I'm to fucked up for a normal life. "Carella, do you want me to go? I don't wanna like barge in on the alone time you may want." I fianlly spoke up, "yeah, I would like to be alone, I'm sorry." "No, I understand completely, I'm sorry for what went down, you deserve better than him honey. Don't waste tears on him, please." I smiled a little, "Leia my mascara is too fucking expensive for that." She giggled a little and got out. "That's my girl, I'll see ya tomorrow at school sweetie."

I was in my car for awhile, I watched Leia leave, and I watched the rain and the lighting through out the sky behind me. I didn't want to be alone, but I also didn't want her presence. I loved her to bits already, but I wanted his sadly enough. I refused to let any tears, whats-so-ever, fall. I finally got up out of my baby, and into the house. As I walked in the feeling of loneliness hit me hard as Hell. It was dark, and felt almost cold, I had only felt this one other time and that was when my parents left me alone for longer then the day. I threw my keys on the table, cringing at the sound of the impact, It was quiet, other then the sound of rain on my roof. I walked through my kitchen, with no hunger. I climbed my stairs and opened my door, and smelled something fimilar. Him.

He was here I swear to god he is. I walked around my room a little, seeing no sign of him. I then walked into my bathroom, nope no boy. And my closet had no hidden boy. I swear, I smell his cologne. God that sounds so fucking pathetic, but he's the only boy I know who wears it. I put my satchel on my bed and it bothered me, I swear I smell him. I then opened my curtains to see how bad it was raining. And I gasped as I looked at a drenched boy sitting on my couch, holding something that I couldn't see though the rain, it picked up a bit. I was so confused, and I opened one of the doors. "Reece, what the hell are you doing?" I half yelled. "I'm waiting." I was confused. "For what? Noah's Arch?" He smirked, even through the rain I could see it. "No, I'm waiting for you." "What?" He then got up, being completely drenched, and I stepped out, and regretted it as soon as I did it. He got so close to me, that I had to tilt my head up to look in his eyes. "Carella, I'm sorry." I looked down at his hand and saw he was holding the biggest bouquet I have ever seen, at least three to four dozen ruby red roses. I looked back up at him, "For what Reece?" "For not explaining earlier." He then placed his hand on my cheek, oh god no. I pushed my head into his palm, loving the warmth. He bent down, and kissed my cheek, "Please let me in and let me explain, I'm begging you Carella..." I couldn't let him go so soon, I let him in.
