Chapter 21

Quinn's p.o.v

We all sat down in a booth near the window, it began to drizzle although it was still early. "Hello, i'm Ashley and i'll be your waitress for today, can i help you with any drinks?" She asked nicely witha smile plastered on her face.

"yes i would love a strawberry and banana milkshake and i'm still figuring out what to order," Hunter cleared his throat. "and for you sir?" She asked vincent. " orange juice," was all he said. I looked at him, he didn't notice but i did, it was just a glance and after that kiss i just couldn't stop staring at his lips.

The lady looked at me while i was staring at him, Zamoria tapped my shoulder and i snapped out of it, Vincent noticed and he chuckled. I felt like  five year old girl who had a crush." just water," I said. "wow Quinn you are very boring, she'll get the same as me too!" hunter shouted.

I rolled my eyes," i will have lemonade," she nodded, "i'll be back with your drinks soon in the meantime please figure out what you would like to order," she smiled and walked away.

Hunter waited till she left, " so does that kiss mean you are going to get back together?"Hunter cheesed. "yes," Vincent says, "no," i replied. Both of us had different answers. 

"make up your mind!" Zamoria announced. "no," i sigh. "it's too much right now, but soon." i didn't face him, instead; i looked at my shivering legs who were getting ready to start tapping any second because i was getting nervous.

"so how was it?" Hunter looked at vincent who felt kinda down after i said that, but he should know better that anything. "how was what?" he asked. "how was the kiss?" hunter replied." it was unexpected." He looked down then slightly turned his head at me.

It was like 6th grade all over again. If i had the chance to run away right now, i would. "and?" Zamoria glared at him. "and passionate." He said, i knew he felt bad when i said that we weren't getting back together anytime soon, but when i was ready. Yet i have so many mixed emotions, between Ryan and Him  i just know i love-

"here are your drinks, are you ready to order?" she comes back handing us all of our drinks.  I started drinking my water."  i don't want anything, you guys can order." i quitely say, i felt this uncomfortable vibe around me and i wanted to get out of here.

All of the suddent my phone started ringing. I looked to see who it was and it was an unknown number. It could be Ryan!

"sorry guys i have to take this," i stepped out of the booth and went outside and answered the phone. "hello?" i say,  it was quiet. "hello, Quinn can you hear me?" i felt a big relief when i heard his voice knowing that he was still safe. "are you alright? has he bothered you? i heard about the school shooting! please tell me you aren't hurt." He sounded tired and worried."yeah i'm okay, it was scary but i'm still here. Alive." i smile warmly.

I can feel the warm sun hit my face giving me a comfort that i needed after the pressure i just been through, the rain was gone."thank God." He says, " i couldn't sleep these past two days, i couldn't get a hold of you," he says." yeah i know i shut my phone off. I'm thinking of going to paris, maybe to meet you and see how you are doing," i say. "really? why?" he asked me. "because....i kind of.....miss you." 

It felt weird to say that. I shouldn't have said that. But i needed someone, to comfort me. Not Vincent, Not zamoria, Not my mom or marceline; i needed to talk to him. This doesn't mean i choose him over Vincent, i just couldn't do that. " Quinn, do you have a gun pointed to your head or something?" he asked me. I laughed," no! i'm being serious, i just need the money." I say, I turn around to see the group sticking their his on the window and being nosey.

"i can send you some money," he says, "no, no, Ryan you have to be careful, you can't send me money with your phone, they'll track you." i said, he huffs through the phone. " i'll just work for it, i'm not in school anymore so-" "what happened?" he cut me off, " i'll tell you in paris. I'll tell you everything when i go see you." I say, "okay...I love you," he says and i pause.
