Right Where You Are
Chapter 1: Late Night Thoughts
This is my first ever story. I'd really appreciate reviews, good or bad I don't mind! I hope you enjoy reading my story!
The street lamp shone through Andie's bedroom window. Turning sideways to look at the luminous digits of her clock, Andie saw that it was 3.20am. No matter how hard she tried she couldn't sleep. The events of last night were racing through her mind. Closing her eyes, Andie brought her fingers to her lips. Slowly and gently, she ran her finger tips across them. She could remember it so clearly; like it was happening again. Rarely in her life had Andie ever experienced true, perfect happiness. But then in that moment, she did. Although she hated to admit it, it was a real cliché moment, but it was her cliché moment. So; the annoying feeling of being a pathetic girl, completely under the control of a man; passed quickly.
It was Chase that broke the kiss. Andie could still feel the stab of pain through her heart at being separated from him. Her cheeks flushed as she remembered how she had whimpered aloud at the loss of contact. Andie closed her eyes, and thought about the look Chase had given her after the kiss. The intensity made a shiver run down her spine. Before anything could be said the crowd swallowed them up. The night passed so quickly. Andie had caught glimpses of Chase every so often; but they didn't speak again; she didn't even get a chance to say goodbye.
Sarah had turned up saying they had to go home and talk. At first, Andie was terrified. Her first thoughts were that Sarah was still sending her to Texas. But, instead Sarah just wanted to talk about everything, she wanted to know what was going on in Andie's life. They talked for hours. Andie couldn't remember ever feeling so at ease with Sarah. Everything was changing, getting better.
Again Andie closed her eyes and thought of Chase. What it felt like to be near him, to have him hold her. It was like coming home. After running for so long, Andie had found where she belonged. Chase was right, it was about being happy where you were.
Andie so badly needn't to see Chase . What did their kiss mean to him? Did he want more? Did he need more? Or was it just an impulse in the passion of the moment? Andie had seen some of the girls Chase had gone out with before she had come to MSA. Andie had thought at the time that's what made their relationship different. But now, she just felt like a stupid naïve idiot. The doubts from early came back full force; but now they clouded every good feeling and memory.
Andie cursed herself for being so ridiculous. It would be just like that time after Missy's party; they'd pretend nothing happened. It hadn't meant anything. She realised that now, she had just got caught up in the excitement of winning the streets. It was a celebration kiss. Andie told herself again and again, because, her and Chase they were just friends. That's all they ever would be. When Andie finally fell asleep, her last thought was: Chase and I are just friends, that's all we both want. So why the hell am I crying?
If you want me to write another chapter, review me and tell me what you think. I was going to do the next one from Chase's point of view!
