The next morning I woke up with that familar headache. The same headache that I use to get every morning, but for the past coupld of weeks, I'd had a break from it. I was the same headache that HE use to manage to give me every mornig, but I didn' want to think of i as him given it to me. I mean, I hadn't had it in so long maybe it wasn't him who gave me the headaches. I wasn't really prepared to have a headache the same morning of my last day at PCA. I got up took and asprin and looked at the clock. It was already twelve. I really wasn't plannin on doin to much anyway, but I mean I still felt like I shouldn't be wakin up at twelve. I don't know why I felt like that thought becuase I didn't mind sleepin late.
I looked outside to see that it was pretty gloomy outside. It looked like it might rain later, so I put on a pair of faded jeans, a brown tanktop, a white jacket, and a white pair of K-Swiss. The jacket had brown writin "Unpredictable" on the back.
I walked outside, and just like I had thought, it was a little chilly. I didn't know how I was gonna get use to the cool weather in Paris, but I'm sure that I could figure it out.
I spent most of the day makin sure that I had everything packed and sayin my goodbyes. My cab to leave got there around 7:00pm. Zoey, Nicole, Sawyer, Chase, Michael, and Ruth all helped me load my stuff into the cab. I gave them all hugs. I was tryin not to cry becuase I didn't want them to either, but I couldn't h elp it. I did't really think that leaving would turn out to be this hard, but it really was. None of the guys creid, but every single one of the girls that I had said bye to that day did. I'mnot sayin that I did want one of the guys to cry, but it would have been...I don't know.
I got in the cab and looked out the back to see six of my best friends in the world that I was about to leave behind.
"So...where do we need to go young lady?" the cab driver questioned me.
"Do you think if I pay you an extra 15 that you could...um...drive me to the beach and wait for aboutu 20 minutes?" I quesitoned him.
"It's on the house tonight." he told me.
I was gonna say thank you, but I was too busy thinking baout every little moent that I had ever had at PCA:
"And you are?" I questioned Zoey.
"My name is Zoey, and this is Nicole, we're you're new roomates." she told me. I looked at her discutstedly.
Man I had really had all kinds of things happen to me here.
"Here's your stop ms. I'll just wait here, take as long as you need." he told me.
I got out of the car and walked to my spot. Once I got there, I looked out at the ocean. The sun was pretty much already down, but I didn't care. I was just great to be there. I knew that that was gonna be the last time for a long time that I was just gonna be albe to be out there.
"Logan! There's no way that I got the closest match to Logan!" I told Nicole, Zoey, Chase, and Sawyer.
"Just face it...we're goin together." he told me as he appeard behind me.
I laughed as I remebered last year when we had to take that dumb date match list. And me and him turned out to be the closets match, so we had to go the the dance together.
"Do you wanna amke out?" he questioned me.
"Sure." I told him as i leaned in to kiss him. Then I suddenly stomped on his foot.
"Dana!" he yelled as he chased after me.
I couldn't belive that it had really een that long. Time goes by so fast.
"The time that I've spent with you today has...actually been kinda nice." I told Logan.
"You know I've had a nice time today too." he responded.
"Wait...did we just have a moment?" I questioned him.
Suddenly just memories turned in to thinkin about Logan.
"Are you okay?" he questioned me as he sat down next to me. My lip was bleeding from where I had gotten hit at
"Umm...yeah I just feel a little stupid that's all." I commented.
"You don't need to feel stupid, you didn't kwo that he was liek that. Shit I didn't even know that he was like that." he told me. I laughed a little bit.
"Did you light all of these candles?" I questioned him as I wiped my lip on my black tank-top.
"Yeah. I had a feeling that you would come down her, but I was thinking that you would come down here be yourself," he answered me truthfully.
"Thank you." I said.
"Don't thank me, I just did the right thing." he told me.
We had had so many things that happened in the past few weeks.
"OMG, Logan we have to get back to PCA." I suddenly said.
"Why?" he quesitoned me.
"We have basketball practice in twenty minutes." I explained.
"Aww man, I forgot." he told me. He rolled down the window, and let Frank now where we were goin. "Do you even have your basketball stuff to change into with you?" he asked me.
"Nope." I answered.
"Yeah, me neither. We'll drop you off first, and then I'll meet you there I guess."
"That's cool." I told him.
Then I suddenly started to think about the day in the locker room.
"Dana?" he yelled as he walked in. There weren't any showers runnin or anything like that.
"Logan is that you?" I questioned him as I came arond the corner.
"Yup." he responded. I had changed into a a burnt orange tank top and a blue jean skirt with burnt orange designs on the back pockets; I had on burnt orange flip-flops also. My hair was wet, and I smelt really good, so you could tell that I had just had a shower.
"What are you doin in her?" I asked as I brushed my hair.
"This isn't gonna as easy as I was thinkin is it?" he questioned. I looked at him puzzled. "You and nick." he explained.
My thoughts were interupted by the booming of the thunder. It was gonna rain just like I had thought. I closed my eyes and took another deep breath then I hurried back to the cab, and luckily forme, he was still there just like he had siad that he would be.
"I was hopin that you would make it back before it started to rain." he told me. I just sat in the car, and he began to drive me to the airport. When I got there, my dad was there. He helped my unload everything, and he actually carreid most of my stuff. Me and my dad really weren't all that close, but if he wanted to carry my bags, I wasn't gonna object.
We cashed in my ticket, and I sat in the room watiing for them to start boarding the plane. There was a loud crash of thunder, and then it began to rain. To tell you the truth, I was a little nervous about flyin in the rain, but I figured that it would be alright Plus, I had flown i nthe rain more than one time before. I yawned and took my hair down for no particular reason.
"Anyone ready for flight 722 should begin boarding." the said over the intercom.
I stould up, handed the lady my ticket, and walked. I had already did the whole luggage thing. I put my hood up when I had to walk out side.
"Sir you need to get back into the terminal now if you do not have a ticket."
" Dana...Dana wait don't go!" I heard a familar voice yell at me.
"Sir I'm gonna have to call the security." the guy told Logan. It was rainin terrible, and we were standin right in the middle of it.
"Don't go Dana!" Logan yelled as he walked twords me. I just stould there frozen. "You can't leave me like this. I'm sorry!" he told me.
"I..." I tried to say something, but I was so confused.
"Shut up...dont' say nothin...I hope I'm not to late. You can't leave. I love you! What am I suppose to do without you here?" he questioend me. "I'm sorry for anything that I've ever done to you that hurt you." he told me as he took off my hood. We were both soakin wet by now.
"What are you talkin about don't go? I have to go!" I explaiend.
"No you don't. You only think that you have to go." he told me as he looked at me. His eyes were diffrent than I had ever seen in my life. They were...full of love and wonder. It was weird, but it also intriged me even more.
"Yeah I do Logan. This is the chance of my life."
"Sir I'm gonna have to excort you off of the premissis." the officer said as he grabbed Logan by the arm. I just watched. Logan didn't fight him or anything, he just looked at me with hurt.
"Wait!" I hollard loudly after them.
"Mam, he just broke the law." the officer told me.
"I understand that, but please let me finish talkin to him." I pleaded. The officer let go of Logan.
I ran over to him and jumped in his arms. He twirled me around and hugged me tightly as if he would never let me go. Once he finally let go, we just stared at eachother. Then all of the sudden he pressed his lips to mine as if he'd been wantin to do that forever. I ddin't hold back either. I mean, I really did want him, but I had to go. I must say that my kiss in the rain had been better than I had ever thought that it would be, but it was also so sad!
"So does that mean that you're gonna stay?" he questioned me once we seperated.
"I...I can't." I told him.
"Alright that's long enough." the officer told him as he grabbed logan again.
"Yes you can." Logan told me as the cop took him to the car.
"I can't" I told him as I headed to the plane. Once I climbed one of the stairs and looked back at Logan in the cop car. I swear I saw him shead a tear, but since it was rainin, I couldn't quite tell for sure. I borded the plaine and took my seat. The cop drove away with Logan in the car. I just watched out of my window. I felt horrible. He wasn't just suppose to show up like that. Why was I blaming this all on him. I couldn't go through with it! I wasn't goin anywhere!
I got out of my seat.
"Mam, we need you to take you're seat, we are gettin ready to close the doors." one of the flight attendants told me.
"I'm not goni anywhere except out of here!" I told them as I ran out of the plane. I was already soakin wet from standin out in the rain, but I didn't care. I wasn't even worried about my stuff that was on the plane! All I wanted was to find Logan.
"Wait! Wait! Don't take him yet!" I yelled as I chased after the cop car. "shit." i said to myself once I realized that I couldn't rearlly be heard by the cop, and that there wasn't anyway that he was stoppin for me.
I ran back through the terminal and all of the way back to the front of the airport in hopes that they would bring him that way. Waitin there in the rain for what seemed to be hours, and really was gonly a couple of minutes, the cop drove by.
"Wait wait!" I yelled as I stould in front of the car. "Don't go yet...please!" I continued to yell.
The officer rolled down his window. "Mam...can I help you?" he questioned me.
"Please let him go!"
"I'm afriad that I can't do that mam." he explained.
"He didn't really do anything wrong, he just wanted to talk to me, that's all" I informed him.
"You're right, but we still have to contact his parents."
"I'll do that! Watch me right now!" I told him as I pulled out my phone and dailed Logan's home number. "Hi...Mrs.Reece, Logan was arrested tryin to talk to me, and I think that you should know." I said outloud. That was all that I said before I hung up the phone. I looked in the back seat to see Logan just smiling at me.
"Alright, but if anyone hears about this, I'm toast, you just remeber that!" the officer told me as he let Logan out of the car.
Right when Logan was set free, I gave him a hug.
"I"m sorry...I'm so sorry...I didn't mean too..."
"Just shut up!" he told me as he kissed me. "I knew you wouldn't ever leave me like that." he said. I couldn't belive how much trust he had put into me.
"I thought...I ...thought that i could, but I was wrong. I love you too." I told him. At that moment, it didn't even fase me that I had sait that. I really ment it. He knew it just as well as I did. He kissed me again, and just smiled at me. I smiled back, and everything was all good again. I had finally got my kiss in the rain. My fairy tale ending. This is how every girl wishes that it would or could end for them. Unfortunatly moments like this don't last a lifetime like people want you to belive. That's only the way that it happens in movies. Unfortunatly for me, I live in the real world. I thought that Paris was out of the question now, but I guess I'm only 16 and major life decisions ike this one, isn't just my choice.
