Hoagie's View

I heard a knock on the door and raised my eyebrow. My mom got to her feet to answer it. I had a weird feeling as I put down my book.

"Mom, I'll get it." I said, the knot in my stomach becoming tighter.

"Okay, hun. Don't be out too long.. it's pouring rain!" She said, returning to the kitchen. I nodded, and walked to the front door. My hand trembled on the door knob as I opened it.

"Hey Hoagie! Check out my new ride!" Said.. Tommy. I smacked my forehead.

"God, Tommy! Don't scare me like that!" I yelled, rubbing my face. He raised his eyebrow.

"Well I just came by to say hi! I'll be back around dinner time. Me and Amy have a date unlike you! Heheheh..See ya bro." He said, pulling his hood over his head again, then running to his car and getting in.

"Yeah.. Lucky you. The girl I love loves someone else.." I said softly to myself. I watched him backout and wave. I raised my eyebrow but waved back anyway. I then shut the door.

"Who was it!?" My mom called from the kitchen. I sighed.

"Just Tommy. He said he'd be out with Amy for a while and would be back for dinner." I said, leaning up against the door, then walking slowly away from the door.

"Well he shouldn't be out in the rain like that.." Said my mom. Suddenly, my thoughts of Tommy and his car were interrupted by another knock.

"I bet you Tommy forgot his money.. Psh." I said with a grin, as I pulled open the door. To my surprise, I saw Kuki. She was soaking wet and looked troubled. Kuki grinned and threw her arms around me.

"K-Kuki.." I said, returning the hug tightly. After awhile of standing out in the rain in a hug, we pulled apart just enough to still loosely cling to each other.

"Hey ma? I'll be back later.. I have a date with the rain." I said, and slammed the door shut. Kuki laughed as my heart warmed. She leaned in until our lips connected. It was awesome. My first, real kiss. Once we finished our little scene, she leaned her forehead up against mine and was smiling. I could tell she had been wanting to for sometime now.

"What about Wally?" I asked, gently. Kuki frowned gently but shrugged.

"He's.. He's the past. That's all I can say. But he deserves someone who can make him smile." She said softly. "But, I know he'll be much happier with me happy..." I nodded.

"Yeah.." It was all I could say. All of those years of yearning to hold her close.. Tell her all his long awaited secrets.. Someone he could trust.

"Thanks." She said out of no where. I was confused.

"For what? For helping destroy your relationship with Wally?" Kuki nuzzled her nose with mine and laughed her normal girly giggle.

"No, silly.. You helped me fly.."

Abby's view.

I watched as the rain poured. I was sitting inside Wally and Kuki's apartment still. I don't know why. Maybe to see if the mom could pick up a mess and make everything clean again. I heard the door open and bang against the wall.

"Wally!? You're soaking wet!" I said, flying to my feet and walking to him. I rubbed his shoulder gently. He looked upset and angry.. It wasn't like all of the other times. It was different. I grabbed his cold and shaking hands in mine.

"Wally.. Listen to me.. You don't want to be unhappy, do you? You know that if you and Kuki stayed together, happiness would have never made it!" I tried to say to make him feel anybetter. Wally looked down to our hands, his eyes filled with so much sorrow.. To my surprise, I felt a few tears leave my own eyes. Who did I have? No one. He smiled lightly and wiped my tears away.

"Thanks." He said, gently. Wally pulled me into a warm, but wet hug. I didn't hesitate one minute. I threw my arms around his neck, holding his close.

"Are you gonna be okay?" I asked gently as we pulled away. He shrugged.

"Don't know.. Kuki was the love of my life. And now she's with my best friend whom I've known forever.. But I don't want everyone to be unhappy because of me." Wally said, shutting the door and sitting down on the couch. I followed him over, sitting down next to him.

"No.. No. Don't think of this as your fault. I know Kuki loved and still does love you. She always will. Sometimes, we just have to accept the truth, no matter how much it burns.. I had too.." I said, glancing away. It was true. Wally had always been that guy I blushed around. Was it love? I'm not sure. But I sure do hope it can turn into that. Wally's face fell then put an arm around my shoulders.

"I'm glad your here, though. I love Kuki and I always will. But can you help me get over all of this? He asked.

"Of course.." I said, leaning my head against his shoulder.

It's kind of short, I guess. But I have at least one more chapter I'd like to finish it off with! Thanks for all the reviews and I hope this chapter was a little better then the last one. This wasn't really the ending I had in my mind but close enough
