My Unimportant But Still Kinda Important Notices: First of all, I would like to say; I HATE MOSQUITOES! They are stupid, and annoying and…….. Ok, now that that's over with, I'm sorry that this has taken me a longish time to update, but I have been…um…er…how do I put this…well, to get to the point, I have been extremely lazy lately. Also I have had dance…and I am really sore…and…and… and I will stop making excuses now.
Chapter Eleven:
I stopped for a moment, the crickets were chirping away, then I repeated, "Besides, how can I be in love with William when I am in," I stopped to try to think of way out of this, "like with you." I told Kered with uncertainness, but not showing it.
Kered raised an eyebrow, "You are in like with me?" He said with the same uncertainness only he was letting it show.
"Yeah, you know," I paused, "when you really care about someone." Think Ren, think! There is a way out of this, just start talking. I was now rambling,"Because you can't be in like with two people, or you cant be in love with one person and be in like with another person. You can't really care about someone, and be in love with someone at the same time. It just doesn't work. And besides, how can I love William? It is William. The man you cannot take a hint that someone does not like him. I mean I know that he used to like when we were kids and I guess he still does, but he has to let it go. How many times do I have to let him know that I don't like him?" The crickets were still chirping, only louder now.
"And the crickets!" I continued to ramble, "Will they just shut up? I mean most animals or bugs would just give it a rest and go to sleep, but NO. They need to stay up all night and continue to annoy everyone with their chirping. I mean why can't just go to sleep? And to think that that chirping is a mating call. Who in the right mind would answer to that? How are female crickets attracted to that? I mean, Kered do you go around making weird chirping sound s hoping that I will fall in llllliike with you? And how do they even chirp? I never quite understood that. You hear that they rub their antennae together. You hear they rub their legs together. Which is it?"
His eyebrow was still raised, "Okay, Ren, I am in like with you too."
"Good, you know I am glad that we cleared this up. Now you know that you like me and that I like you. Okay, so where are we going now?" I said to him trying to end the conversation as fast as I could.
Kered replied, "Well, I am not quite sure where we are going but, it is pretty late, maybe we should just sleep tonight and figure everything else out tomorrow."
"Okay, sleep sounds good. I am going to go back to camp," I said getting up from the rock I had been sitting on, "I'll see you tomorrow morning then."
"Yah, I am just going to sit here for a while, okay?" Kered replied to me looking up from the rock that he had been sitting on.
I looked back at him at him and replied, "Yes, I will see you later then."
"Bye Ren," Kered said to me as I was walking out.
I waved good-bye to him; not wanting to say another word, seeing where talking a lot had gotten me tonight.
When I was walking back the night didn't seem that peaceful or tranquil anymore. The crickets weren't chirping, I no longer heard the flowing water, the only thing that was the same was the big silvery full moon that lit my path on the way back to the camp.
I got back to camp, and to my surprise, William was not sitting there. Which was totally not like him. If he had been like how he had been when we were younger, he would be sitting by the fire waiting for me to get back. He had actually left. All of his things were gone. It was actually a good feeling, like a weight lifted off of my shoulder, but now there was a new much heavier weight to take its place.
I sat down by the fire, and just stared at the burning flames that were going away. How could you do that? You have done some pretty stupid things in your life, Ren, but this, THIS, wins the blue ribbon. You can't just go around almost saying things like that. And in like with him? How much stupider can you get? He probably thinks you are crazy now. I mean, and how could you forget about--. Suddenly I remembered something that hadn't crossed my mind in days, maybe even weeks.
Right then everything seemed to be dead silent after that like the world knew what I had just thought of again.
Kered's POV:I sat by the small creek and watched Ren walk off. What had happened? I am so confused. In like with me? Crickets? Where did all of that come from? More importantly; what the hell did it mean? Well I guess she did tell me, but I don't think that that was the actual story. Maybe she wanted to hide that she is still in love with her fiancé. I mean it is perfectly logical. Yeah, that's it, she is still in love with her fiancé.
I yawned, noticing that I was tired, and got up and started to walk back to camp. I looked up at the big silvery full moon, which was lighting the pathway. I was always told that the full moon brought good luck maybe it will, I could really use some good luck right about now. Everything was silent when I walked back to camp. There were not any crickets or even the leaves moving on the trees. It was just silence.
I got back to camp and Ren was sitting by the fire. She just looked up at me, her eyes were watery when she said, "If you knew who killed Raul, you would tell me, wouldn't you?"
I am now going to put the reviews at the end of my chapters because it is easier for me……………… just though you might want to know. Oh, yeah, I thought of what I thought was a really cool story last night, but I am not sure if I should post the first chapter now or later. I don't know; let me now what you think I should do.
Ok, my lovely REVIEWERS………WHO REVIEWED! (hint hint to everyone who doesn't review) ¡Gracias gente quien revista!
Cokefizz-and-chocolate: Hello you! The show started a couple lines up. Hoped you liked, the next chapter will be posted when I get around to it. (Which hopefully will be soon)
Aernhna: Well we don't know for sure if Ren is in love with him, really she never said who she is in llllloooo with. And yes she will start to want to find out who killed Raul, but that is all I am going to tell you.
Mistyqueen: Thanks :o)
Ardelis Mercy: I'm glad you like my story. Yours was really really good too. Keep reading!
Metaphorical: Hey! Glad you like my story! I have a lot of fun writing Ren because she is hilarious. (In my opinion) Sorry it has been taking me a little while to update but besides all the stuff I had said earlier school is starting soon too. :o( I hope you like this chapter, I wasn't really quite sure if I liked it but I think it turned out pretty good.
I just realized that my chapters are kinda short. Well you learn something new every day. I will try to make them longer.
Hasta la vista:o)
