Chapter 10

"It's not?" She asked confused yet embarrassed. "No." He chuckled. "Then what is it?" She asked. "Like I said before, just a thank you dinner, nothing serious." He explained. "Whatever." She spat and started to walk off. "Whoa wait, you don't think I like you do you?" He asked stopping her. "I don't know, maybe not LIKE me but I do expect you to respect me, after all you wouldn't be here if it wasn't for me." She explained. Randy nodded. "And do you respect me?" She asked. "I dunno." He shrugged. Kelly sighed, "Look." She said pointing behind Randy. Randy turned around and saw that girl kissing some other guy against a wall. "So?" He said. "Do you respect her?" She asked. "I dunno." He said confused, what the hell is she on about? He thought. "Well do you just see her as a piece of ass then?" She asked. "What?" He said. "Look I'm glad you don't see me as that. I'm glad that you see me as a bitch and not eye candy." She explained. "Well then that's good then." He said. "Yes, thank you for the dinner Randy, I'm leaving now so goodbye." She said and started to walk off again. "Bye." He said quietly.

She opened the door of her car and hopped inside and went to shut the door when Randy stopped her. "Wait." He said. "What?" She asked. "You didn't answer my question probably, do you think I like you?" He asked. "No!" She shouted. Randy nodded his head. "Do you like me?" He asked. "Randy can you just drop it please?" She sighed. "No tell me, I wanna know!" He said. Kelly breathed deeply. "I don't know." She said quietly. Randy smiled, now she was the one being defenseless. "Why does it matter?" She said whimpering. "What?" He asked. "What does it matter what I think of you, you don't think much of me." She explained. "That's not true." He said. "All you think of me is fat, slut, pig, disgusting." She said with tears in her eyes. "Kelly…" Randy said leaning out to touch her. "Don't touch me!" She yelled. "Look at you Randy; you can have anybody you want. Unlike me who isn't actually god's gift to men." She said with tears rolling down her cheeks. "Kelly that's not true." Randy sighed. "You don't know what its like to meet someone you like, and to have them blow you off. They don't take you seriously and they make a big joke out of you!" She cried. Randy felt like something hard had hit him in the stomach. Usually he would just walk away, but he couldn't. Here was this girl that was dishing out her feelings and out of all people she was doing it to him. "Kelly…" He said. "I promised my mother that I would meet a guy and we'd fall in love, I promised that I would give Matthew the best education available. And mostly I promised to her that I'd be happy but none of it is true." She cried. Randy pulled her out of the car and pulled her into a hug. "Shhhh, its ok Kelly, don't cry." He said rubbing her back. "Well it's a bit late for that." She said quietly. "Yeah it is." He chuckled. Randy thought for a second. To hell with it, its not gonna cause any harm he thought; and bent down and gave her a light kiss on the lips. Kelly froze; he didn't just kiss me did he? She thought. "Kelly I want this night to end happy for you, not sad ok?" He said. "Ok, can I show you something?" She asked. "Sure." He said. She hopped back into the car. "Get in." She said to him. He walked around and hopped into her car. She turned the engine on and drove out of the parking lot. "Where are we going?" He asked. "Not far from here, don't worry." She said. "I'm not worrying." He chuckled. Kelly looked at him and gave a small chuckle too.

After about 5 minutes down the road. Kelly turned down a little road then stopped the car. "And?" Randy asked. "Come on, I'll leave the headlights on so we can see." She explained and hopped out of the car. Randy followed her. "Just up this hill here." She said pointing. Randy just nodded. He followed her from behind while walking up the hill.

When they reached the top he looked around and a bench and grass, not much else. Then he looked ahead and saw a good view of the town below. "Wow." He said. Kelly smiled and sat down on the grass and laid down. "What are you doing?" He asked her. "I didn't take you up here to see the town; I bought you here to look above the town." She said looking up at the sky. Randy looked up and saw all the stars. "I've seen stars before." He said. "Just sit down ya nimrod!" She giggled. "What ya called me?" He chuckled. "A nimrod." She giggled. Randy laughed and laid down next to her. "I used to come here about a few months after my parents died. I looked up in the sky to see if I could see them looking down and watching me and Matthew." She explained. "Really?" He asked looking at her, she didn't look upset, she looked like she was concentrating. "Yeah, I look to see if the stars resemble their faces, and sometimes they do." She explained. "Oh ok." Randy replied. "I don't visit their graves a lot. I think that it's a sad place. That's why I came here as I think it's a lot happier." She explained. "Yeah." He replied. Kelly looked at him and smiled. She was glad that he was putting in an effort for her even though this probably sounded crazy to him what she used to do. This is defiantly a different side of him she thought. He looked at her and smiled. You could tell that she loved her parents and was really trying to make her best in this world he thought. They just stared at each other for a few seconds. "Wow, there are a lot of stars tonight." Randy said looking away, breaking the tension. Kelly looked at him then burst out laughing. "What's so funny?" He asked leaning over her. "Durrrr Captain Obvious." She giggled then stopped as she saw him leaning over her, his face inches away from hers. She looked into his eyes, and then looked away. He smiled looking into her green eyes. He looked down at her body and ran his hand down her stomach; Kelly gasped and looked at him. He leaned down and kissed her on the lips. Running his tongue along her lips to the corners, urging her to open her mouth. She did and he plunged his tongue into her mouth, exploring it. He ran his hands up and down her body again and stopped on one of her breasts. He massaged it through the material. He stopped kissing her and looked at her. "Can I take you somewhere now please?" He asked in a husky voice. Kelly bit her lip only needing to guess once where abouts he wanted to take her. "Ok." She replied.
