Chapter 9- The Cold Shoulder
I spent the weekend visiting my mom and dad. I went to church, it seemed like ages ago since I been to one. I met up with some old friends and I spend a lot of time thinking of a way to make up to Rachel. I hated myself for doing that to her. I finally let myself think about the kiss. It was a great kiss, soft and wonderful.
I was saying good- bye to everyone the night I was leaving. Jamie's hugged me and whisper in my ear, " Don't let her get away. She's good for u."
I drove back to my apartment when it was 12:00 midnight. I thought it was late to call Rachel, so I thought I could talk to her at school tomorrow. I went to bed without taking my clothes off and fell to a nice sleep. I woke up as the alarm clock was ringing its head off. I was wide-awake and happy. I jumped off my bed and rushed to the bathroom and took a quick shower. I was very surprised when I found myself humming, which I haven't done in a long time.
I had a quick breakfast and rushed off to school early. I knew Rachel was at the bench reading a book. When I got there sure enough there she was reading a book. I came up to her slowly and said, " Hey, what you reading?"
She turned her head to me and gasped, " Landon!"
" That's my name, " I said with a goofy smile one my face. It felt like high school. She hurry and stood up from the bench the book still in her hand.
" What are you doing here? I thought we agreed not to see-"
I cut her off by rushing up and kissed her. It was a great kiss better then last time, she dropped her book and put her arms around me. It lasted about a minute until she realized what was happening.
" What are you doing?" She said as she pushed me backward.
" The day you told me off was the day I thought things through. The things you said to me were true, I have to move on. With advice from a good friend and someone special I realized I was an idiot. I want to move on, I want to move on with you." I stepped up to her again and kissed her. But then she backed away and looked at me.
" How do I know all this is true? How do I know you are ready to move on?"
" I-"
" You hurted me so much at the cemetery that day. You really loved Jamie and I don't know if it's true that you're ready for this. How do I know? I don't want to get hurt and it seems like I will if I be with you." There were tears in her eyes.
" I'm sorry Landon. I- we can't do this." Like that she picked up her things and walked way from me.
The next couple of days, no matter how much I tried to talk to Rachel, she ignored me. I did everything I could but nothing helped. Then one day I saw he kissed another guy at school. I just thought to myself, ' is it really over? Have I really lost her? Nice work Landon, you really done it this time.'
