There's Nothing Wrong With Purple

Chapter 15

Kelly's POV

We stood there in silence for a moment as I registered what he had asked, I felt my heart break even more as looked at Donnie. He stared at me with hurt in his eyes which made me regret my words earlier. I turned my back to him and used my crutch to walk over to the other side of the room as I tried to fight back the tears.

"Kelly please talk to me. I hate seeing you like this."

Donnie's voice sounded broken but instead of feeling touched I felt anger build in my chest as remembered what April had told me.

"Why do you do that?"

I turned to face him,anger obvious in my voice.

"Do what?"

He asked.

"Why do you pretend to care about me?"

I asked almost yelling.

"Pretend? I'm not pretending."

He took a step towards me causing me to back up against the wall.

"Please stop lying to me Donnie. April told me the truth."

"What did she tell you?"

He took another step towards me, but this time I had no room to back up.

"It doesn't matter. All that matters is that I know the truth."

I said as a tear ran down my cheek. He stopped moving and just looked at me confused.

"What's the truth?"

He tilted his head to the side.

"I know I'm not your type."

Tears were pouring down in a steady stream.

"Not my type?"

He asked.
"I know I'm not smart enough for you, that I'm not pretty enough for you."

With each thing I said he took another step towards me, I did my best to ignore him.

"I know that you don't like girls who are tall, and I know you like red heads better."

He was now an inch from me with a stern look on his face. I stared up at him as I tried to stop my tears an be tough but my broken heart controlled my emotions more than my mind could.

"I know I'm just your rebound girl."

My breath caught in my throat, as he reached out his hand and gently placed it on my cheek. He used his thumb to wipe away some of my tears, I tried my best to avoid his eyes, but he held my face still so that I had to look him in the eyes. His big brown eyes stayed locked on mine

"April told you this?"

He asked. I nodded my head slowly before opening my mouth to talk again.

"Yes and she also informed me on how annoying I was and.."

I wasn't able to finish what I was saying.

Donnie smashed his lips into mine silencing me. At first I hesitated, but soon all my walls came crashing down and I melted into him. The kiss started as soft and gentle, but it soon turned passionate and hungry. I let go of my crutch letting it fall to the floor so that I could wrap my arms around his neck and pull him closer to me.

He pressed me against the wall and pressed his body against mine as our kiss deepened. He keep one hand on my cheek and one on my waist. Our kiss lasted for what seemed like forever, until we finally pulled away our. We were both struggling to catch our breath as we stared at each other. He brushed some of my hair out of my face and place a small kiss on my forehead.

"Kelly you are the smartest girl I've ever meet."

Donnie said, I opened my mouth to say something but he cut me off.

"You are beautiful, outstanding, and brave. There is nothing wrong with your height and I've always been more of a brunette kind of guy."

I shook my head as I tried to grasp what he was saying.

"But what about April?"

I asked. He chuckled and shook his head and layer his forehead against mine.

"At one time yes I did like April."

I felt my face drop as I looked away.

"Oh"

Donnie held my face in both of his hands and stared into my eyes as he wore a big smile on his face.

"But everything I felt towards April disappeared the moment I meet you. Since I laid eyes on you I've been falling for you. Everything about you captivates me and brings me joy. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I love you Kelly ."

I felt a huge smile spread across my face and a warmth spread through my chest as I placed my lip against his once again. The kiss didn't last as long as our first one, but it still had its own meaning. When we pulled away I reached up and began playing with bandana tails with a big smile I said.

"I love you too Donnie."
