Shout out to Starkiller2, Guest, and Guest! Thank you so much for you're input!
Sorry I couldn't update sooner today. My sister got back today and she has been using the laptop all day!
And finally... The confrontation! Christian and Kate try to explain themselves. This one, I will admit I have been avoiding, a lot. I hope you like it!
Warning: Might be swearing.
Chapter 13: Complicated and Lying Tactics
Kate's point of view:
Well, I have been avoiding Christian all day. It's the end of the day, my last period. World History. Ugh.
Now, normally, this is one of my favorites classes. But, Christian is in my class and he sits behind me. Always tapping his foot on the metal part, were I usually put my books in. It makes a noise. It use to drive me mad, but now, I have gotten use to it.
Second lunch. I had that on green days, or 'A' days. He has first lunch both days. I have second lunch on green days and first lunch on gold days. It was almost over. I could always make it to the history complex where our room was in faster than him.
Bring!
I groaned. Lunch was over. Great, this day couldn't get much worse.
"Hey, Kate. Ready for our World History test today?" My friend asked me.
"What?!" I screeched. The world just hates me. I swear.
"Oh, well, it's on chapter 11 section 1-2."
"Damn it." I muttered.
"What was that?"
"Nothing. I will see you in class."
I groaned as I waled to class. I was thinking what I was going to say to Christian. He is perfect. I can't break him. Maybe dating him wouldn't be so bad. I mean I love everything about him. The way he acts. The way he flirts with me. The way he compliments me. The feeling I get around him when I am near him. When our arms touch or he touches me, I can feel the spark. It's electrifying. I love it. Wait, what? I love him? I love him. I love him! I am in love with Christian. I have to tell him! He, after all loves me too! I feel so relieved! Except the fact that I have a history test next period! Shit!
I was already there. I put my pack back in there. Got my book and walked back outside and sat down on the ground and started study like crazy.
"Kate!" Christian can running to me. His hair was messy. He had a dark tight tee-shirt on. I blushed at the thought. He had dark jeans on too. And no jacket. I wonder why.
"Christian!" I gasped. His eyes were blood shot and had purple underneath his beautiful sapphire eyes. I guessed I looked the same way.
"Oh, Christian." I looked so concerned, I bet. I walked up to him. I put my hand to his cheek. I started rubbing my thumb under his eye. He closed his eyes.
"Kate." He breathed. He leaned into my hand. His hand grabbed my hand, so it would stay there. He opened his eyes. We got lost in each others eyes.
"Kate, I need to tell you something." He breathed. He started to open his mouth.
Bring!
The bell scared both of us. We both jumped and rushed inside. We both swore under our breath.
Christian's point of view:
"Shit!" I needed to talk to her. Why is my luck horrible? Why? I need to talk to Kate about my confession and the kiss.
We both got to our seats. I got to see what what she was wearing. He hair was down. Yes, I like it down rather than having her have it up in ponytail. It is really soft. I have played with her hair before. When we have nothing to do in World History, I do. She had a dark navy blue tight tee-shirt on. It fit her nicely. Kate has a nice figure. And, I mean this in a nice friendly way. And when she wear those shirts. It flatters her. She has a swimmers body. She can get away with wearing things that fit her nicely and look good in it, without looking, you know, trying to hard to get attention. She has blue skinny jeans on. Which she looks nice in. Again, I am not a creeper for commenting on these things. She has a swimmers body. She can full off a lot of things. And she has long legs. Trust me, I have seen her swim. And, I have seen her in a dress. What, she is my best friend. Can't I admire her without with getting any presumptions? Of course not.
She never wears make up. Well, some times she does. But, she doesn't need to. She has nice smooth skin. What? I have felt her arms and face. Her jacket. Wait? Isn't that mine? Oh, this is awesome. She still has my jacket. I am not asking for it back though. I bet it smells like her. Her scent is so sweet. Like lavender. She is so pretty. No, beautiful.
Her eyes. I felt horrible. Her eyes were blood shot. They are like lightning storms. Like her personality. She always comes first. She never let some one come in the way of her dream. That is one of many things I admire about her. She never let anything get the way of her dream. Her way to get to the top. Kate is a straight arrow. I love her for that and hate it about her at the same time. She is so independent and and so insecure at the same time. She wouldn't want anyone taking care of her, thinking she was weak and vulnerable. And at the same time, wanting some one taking care of her, for everyone to accept her, and to have everyone like her.
We had to take the test now. I flew it pretty easily. Kate was having a more difficult time. But, she always beat me at tests.
We were all done with our test. Our teacher said we can talk. Since he has nothing left today in the lesson plan.
"Kate?" I whispered. She turned around to me. She was listening to music.
"What are you listening to?" I asked. She handed me one of her ear buds. I immediately recognized the song. "Complicated" by Avril Lavigne.
"It's a good song." I said with a soft smile. She turned her face away from me and tucked a piece of her hair behind her ear.
"Yeah, it's a good song for us." She said shyly.
"Kate, we need to talk."
"Yeah, I know."
"Kate, look at me." I said. She turned her face back at me. She was scared of getting hurt. I could tell. She she never let her emotions be shown, but when she did, you could read her like a book.
"You have been avoiding me for the past two weeks." I said.
"I know. I just couldn't face you." She said quietly.
"Kate, you can't avoiding me forever." I said with a humorless laugh.
"I know." She laughed humorlessly.
"Can we go back to things the way they use to be?" I said sadly.
"Yes, but see, what if we were more?" I said softly.
"I know. It could be nice." She said the same amount of sound as I said.
"We could be happy."
"We could be really happy."
"But, we don't know how to be like that."
"We could learn."
"We might fail."
"I would hate that."
"I could not stand to loose you as a friend." I said.
"Me neither." She said.
"Our friendship is to important to me."
"Me too."
"We always could wait on it?"
"We could."
"Just not now."
"Just not now." I said. We both frowned unconsciously. Then we both gave a fake smile.
"Great now that is straightened out. We can go back to things before." She said with a fake smile.
"Exactly." I said.
We didn't talk the rest of class. Occasionally, we would glance at the other and the other would just smile and one of us would smile back, depending on who it was.
I was thinking on what a big mistake I just made. I was think what was she thinking. That what we just did was a mistake? Or not? She looked like she had something important to say to me before. Great, another sleepless night wondering about Kate. Huh, I guess things were back to normal.
So, how was that? I know, so annoying that they didn't admit their feelings. They would be the perfect couple! Kate's last name was originally going to be Heat. But that would be too obviously, you know Heat and Storm? If you say were that is from, shout out in my next chapter.
I am going to write a few more one-shots and then get more back on the timeline. I am sorry, but writing one-shots is so much fun! Especially with these two characters!
Remember: read, rate, and review!
Tschrüs!
