When the Sun Comes Out At Night
Chapter 3: I Can't Stand the Rain
By: Stargazer-Lillies
Author's note: I'm updating! I finally saw the last episode of Tru Calling, ever! (I'm so sad) I do not own Tru Calling. Blah Blah Blah……….. I promise I won't use 'scoffed' in this chapter, my mental thesaurus was not working…
Rating: T…whatever that means
Jack stood outside Richard Davies' office. (A/N: A-HA! His name is Richard!) He couldn't believe what he had just told, well not told- ordered him to do. Seduce Tru? What was this guy on? I mean, let's say Tru actually gave into him…which was to a disturbing degree unlikely…Jack didn't think he could keep himself from getting emotionally involved. Tru and Jack had a connection. Tru was the only person in the world who could understand what he was going through. He couldn't deny she was beautiful…and he couldn't deny that she was intelligent…and most of all he couldn't deny that wait a second… he totally had a thing for her…
Meanwhile…
Tru walked home from the restaurant. It had begun to rain, and once again the weather was pathetic fallacy. She couldn't think. She had tried so hard to clear her head, to stop it from spinning, from going over what Jensen had said, what Davis had said, even what Jack had said… but she still couldn't comprehend that what they were saying was true- that Jensen was meant to die.
The rain poured harder and her clothes and hair began to soak. She didn't seem to care much though as her mind was on other things. It was then that she realized she was walking by her father's building. Her father- not the greatest in the world. All her life she had wished he'd be there for her, but he never came. Now he was off with his new family- living the life she never got to.
A figure was sitting on the bench getting soaked as well. He seemed to be lost in thought and as she moved closer she recognized who it was. Jack.
"Jack?" She asked, completely puzzled as to why he was huddled outside her father's building in the rain. "Why are you here?" He broke out of his thoughts.
"Tru?" He asked with a lost tone in his voice.
"Harassing my family members again?" She asked, her mind swirling.
"What?" He asked her, looking confused
"This is my father's office building" She explained, accusatory.
"Oh." Jack said staring at her with those same lost eyes. "I didn't know." Tru gave him a puzzled look.
"Are you sure you're Jack?" She asked, the rain still pouring over them, as she sat down beside him on the bench. He looked down at the ground. "You look…lost." He looked up at her again.
"I could say the same thing about you." Jack said, leaning back on the bench and turning his head to face her.
"Well…" she started. "I've been thinking… and I know you're all wrong about Jensen."
"All?" He asked, regaining his smirk. "Who agrees with me?" Tru said nothing, but frowned.
"Davis, eh?" He said. "You know the world's gone crazy when that guy agrees with me, don't you?"
"Davis doesn't agree with you, Jack." Tru said smugly. "He doesn't believe in killing."
"I told you, I'm not a killer…" He started.
"Oh, don't tell me you've forgotten about Luke…" She said, a dark look in her eyes. Jack's smile faded, and he stood up.
"I do what I have to do, Tru. That's all there is." He began to walk away and Tru yelled at him.
"You're not God, Jack, so stop kidding yourself." She slumped into the bench. She couldn't help noticing how sad he looked walking away. His hands were tucked in his pockets and he was drenched to the bone. She would never understand him. Not even if she had her whole life to.
Jack trenched through the rain, eyes fixed on the puddles on the ground. She hated him--- she truly hated him, and he didn't think that even his bedroom skills could convince her otherwise…
He walked into his apartment a while later, and the rain stopped. The clouds parted and there was the sun. It seems the rain as only meant for him… maybe Tru was right… maybe even God knew he was a killer…
A/N: Awww… it seems sad now, but it'll turn out… coming up… a rewind day! Ooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhh…
Will Jack's heart be broken? OR
Will Tru realize her Tru feelings?
(I'm so lame…I know…)
