Kendall:
It was raining outside, Charlotte and I just got out of the theater and we were looking for somewhere to eat. It was past midnight, and there would be no place open. I saw Charlotte pull her coat over her head, and I did the same with mine. We were both laughing and starving at the same time. "You better not kiss me like in those cheesy movies, Schmidt." I smiled at her, only shaking my head. I knew she loved those cheesy, romantic movies, and her telling me not to kiss her in the rain only meant that I should. So, I picked her up in my arms, her hands placed at my shoulders, and her legs wrapped around my torso, I pulled into me closely and together our lips moved in sync, I felt her wet hands slowly cupped along my went jaw line. I almost forgot it was raining, when we parted I only smiled at her and she smiled back. "Are you hungry, my wet princess?" I asked. She only giggled at me, and nodded her head. "I know the perfect place." Charlotte jumped out of my arms and grabbed my hand, together we ran in the rain until we reached this 24 hour diner. A smiled spread across my lips and I pulled her in closer to me once we were inside. Gently, I kissed her lips letting it linger for a second, before I whisper to her, "I love you." She smiled at me, her big brown eyes sparkled when she said back to me, "I love you too, Kendall."
That was the first night I ever said I loved her. After that night, things changed between us. Having sex, changed into making love to each other, when I looked at her, I could see that same sparkle in her eyes from that night. It was as if, it was more than love that was shared between us. We have a bond that I've never been able to share with anyone else before. She was, different, special.
I heard the bell ding, and it brought me out of my day dreaming. Tears began to sting into my eyes. My emotions started to spin out of control. It was as if, I was able to travel back into time when she was still here, but now I'm back into the harsh reality that's life. The tears slowly rolled down my cheeks, hitting my hand. I didn't even bother to wipe them until I heard someone say to me, "Are you alright?"
Looking up, I saw a small girl. She had hair like chocolate, and eyes that reminded me of a cat. They were piercing green, that made me stumble back into my chair, "Yeah." Was the most I could mutter as I wiped the remaining tears from my face.
Lucy:
I've been into New York for only a couple of days. James, and I have been trying to find out more about the city. So far, one of my favorite places has been this 24 hour diner. It was around 8 in the morning. My classes wouldn't being for around another hour, so I thought it was safe to come here for a cup of coffee. When I walked into the diner, I heard a small ding and I smiled to myself. That ding reminded me of the diner back home. The further I walked into the diner, I saw was a little shocked by what I saw. There he was, the handsome stranger occupying the back booth. He had shaggy blonde hair, and sort of a large nose. I liked it. A small sparkle fell out of his left eye on to his cheek, slowly rolling down towards the ground. The closer I walked to him, the more handsome he got. I then saw that he was not what most women would find attractive, but that is what made him attractive. He was breath taking.
"Are you alright?" I asked the man.
"Yeah." Was all that he said to me as he began to wipe the tears away from his face, I sat down in row across from him, not convinced.
"You don't seem alright." I said to him, with only getting a shrug as a response. "Is there anything I can maybe do to make you feel better?" The next response was only a shake of the head. Defeated, I took a napkin that was sitting right next to him, and a pen out of my bag and wrote my number on to it.
"Well, ever need anyone to talk to, just give me a call." I place the napkin right next to his cup of tea, and stood back up from the booth. When my coffee was done, I left the diner wishing there could have been something to make him smile.
