A/N: Oh look, more updates! I am a writing machine recently. This one is Candace/Jeremy, because the random pairing generator I created using a number generator and my notebook says so. The word is "Rage" and I think I might have gone with a pretty typical usage of it, but whatever~ Please enjoy it, read it, review it, the circle of life continues.
Rage
They'd been sitting there for almost an hour, backs to each other. She was muttering something under her breath between her glances over her shoulder at him; every time he saw her looking his way, she'd snap back to staring out across the park.
Candace was cursing herself. How could she have let herself think he was cheating? Stupid, stupid, stupid! It wasn't her fault she was afraid of losing him. Besides, no matter what he said, Jeremy had been standing far too close to that girl. She wasn't going to give up so easily.
Jeremy turned around. "Look, Candace, I told you --"
"Hmph." She wasn't going to be having any of that. "I don't care what you say! You were FLIRTING with her! Just admit it..."
"Candace, please, don't...I wasn't flirting! Come on, you know how I feel about..."
Very quietly, Candace turned to face him. "Feel about what?"
"Well, you...how I feel about you."
Her resolve was weakening. "Tell me, then. Prove it."
Jeremy said the words, and her anger melted away.
