The Beginning and The End

Previously on The Beginning and The End:

He loosened his grip just a bit from me so I wouldn't suffocate but that lead me to start:
Punching, screaming and after a while crying, Cole felt that I was weak, that I could barely stand anymore, he held me a bit more gently and sighed with guilt. I fainted.

Now:


Part 4

The Truth

I woke up. I was in my room and fully clothed, I thought that it was all a dream of what happened in the Forest but it wasn't, I was still covered in mud, my hair was messed up and there was a note. The note said "Hey, if your awake and found my note well... here it is: I know that you think yesterday was just a simple nightmare but it wasn't, it was real. You were in the forest, I don't know why, I herd something and looked for it, I then found it, it was You. I gave you my leather jacket that's sitting on your chair next to your desk," I looked at it "and then I smelled blood, don't worry it wasn't human, it was deer's blood which doesn't make it any better for me to explain why I did what I did. I had to hold you tightly so you wouldn't run away again and hurt yourself, trust me I didn't want to but then you fainted and I knew where you lived cause my friend Luke gave me your address, don't hate him please, I know you're freaked out and think that this is some kind of a joke but I assure you it isn't and I'm sorry it happened to you I really am but we really need to talk, Cole." I was in shock. I really did think it was a nightmare and I thought I sleep walked into my garden or something but Cole was right, we needed to talk but I too scared and didn't want to. I woke up at about 6:30 in the morning and put my alarm clock to 7am and then went back to sleep. My alarm clock rang and I woke up, I noticed I left the note on my bed and I read it again then I looked back at my chair and the jacket was still there, I was freaked out even more however I ignored my emotions, ate 2 pieces of toast with strawberry jam, got dressed in some shorts that matched a cute but lose top. Then went to school.

Now this takes us back where me and Cole were talking outside in the lunch area.

"Nothing happened last night! Got it!? I don't know how I got there and...wait when I was in the Forest I was naked and when I woke up in my room I was clothed. Did you see me naked?!" I said the first part in a such a frustrated voice that some people started to look at me but said the second one more quietly.
"No, I swear I didn't I just put some random clothes that I found on your bed on and put them on you but I didn't look I swear" Cole sounded so truthful but I didn't believe him, I didn't want to.
"Just stop, OK? I want you out of my life! I want nothing to do with you just please leave me alone" I nearly had tears in my eyes when I said it but I didn't know why, was I scared, sad, I didn't know.
"OK, I'll leave you alone but first you need to promise you'll go somewhere with me, Friday maybe? And no it's not a date I just want to show you explain everything, there will be people there so you can scream if you want (small pause) OK now I get how that sounded and sorry if that just made you feel uncomfortable." I secretly laughed but Cole didn't hear, I smiled so he probably saw that.
"OK but...-Cole interrupts- "I'll leave you alone if you still want me to go, I promise".
I felt sad for how I told him off and grateful because I was scared of him and wanted him out of my life, but most of all happy that he didn't eat me and didn't suck all my blood out of me also he didn't leave me in that Forest so some animal could eat me alive because I have a feeling that if we ever did get into a fight, he would win. In addition I felt terrible because he did all those things and he only tried to help however all I did was push him away.

"It's a deal" I said.
"Guess it is" Cole said with a faint smile.
"I guess it is then" I said it with the exact the same faint smile.
"So Friday, right?" Cole asked me.
"Yeah" I replied.
"Should I pick you up? Or you pick me up? Or whatever works for you" This time I did laugh but a small laugh and he smiled.
"Erm...," I was still laughing a tiny bit but not the hilarious laugh just a tiny one "you can pick me up."
"OK." Cole replied.
There was a pause.
"Sorry, I'm going to be late for class...bye" I wasn't going to be but it felt awkward carrying this conversation on. So I left.
"Wait...you forgot your," he raises an eyebrow and studies it for a while "notebook..?.." As Cole said it, it sounded more as a question than a thing you would tell someone if they just left there stuff somewhere and you found it but it was too late I was gone.
"Katherine!" This time I herd him but I didn't dare turn around
