The day went by slow in his eyes. He just waited around his house and read over what he was planning for that night about a million times to make sure it was perfect. He wasn't going to lose her forever. He glanced at the clock several times and groaned. He got up and headed to her house not wanting to wait until that night. He walked up to her house and pounded on her door.
The door opened and her mother appeared. "Hi, Bradin."
"Hi. Um, where is she?"
"Who? Lacey?"
"No," he said, "Kay Mae."
"She's in her room. She's getting ready for a game. Did you need to her something?"
"I...I need to see her for a second."
She stood aside and let him in. He went up to Kay's room and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" he heard.
"B...Bradin."
The door opened and she appeared wearing her softball uniform.
"Man, you're gorgeous," he said.
"What's up?" she asked.
"Why didn't you tell me you had a game today?" he asked.
She shrugged. "Didn't think you'd want to go or care," she said.
"And, what made you think that?" he asked.
"The way you were acting earlier. You just seemed as if you could careless about anything that had nothing to do with what was going on between you and me."
"Kay!" her mother yelled.
"I have to go. Still on for tonight?"
He smiled and walked away.
She sat in the stands watching her younger sister pitch in her game. She didn't even know why she went to support her. She took the one thing she's wanted for a long time. She would make sure that she never got him.
Night came quickly after that moment. She awaited on the beach for him to show. She left a party for her team just to meet him and hopefully talk things through with him. She waited nearly half an hour before she decided to leave when he never showed up. She sighed knowing it was too good to be true. She turned to walk to the party when Lacey and Bradin caught her eye. Then, she saw Lacey run up to her and push her.
"You took him from me!" she yelled.
"What are you talking about?" Kay asked.
"Because of you, I'm not happy!"
Rage filled Kay up once those words came from her sister's mouth. Kay lunged forwards and knocked Lacey onto the ground. Lacey kicked Kay in the stomach causing her to fall to her side and off of Lacey.
"How could you do this to me?" Lacey yelled as she smacked Kay.
Someone came and grabbed Lacey. They took her away from Kay before she hurt her even more. They all peered up and saw Bradin's friend, Johnny with his family behind him. Kay's softball team and mother ran up as Bradin helped Kay up.
"How could you!" Lacey yelled.
Kay looked up and glared at her older sister.
"All you care is about yourself. You couldn't even let me be happy just this once. The day we left, you told me to move on because you knew I would be miserable. When dad died, you didn't even consider to see how I was taking it. You love to see me miserable. I cried every night. I cried myself to sleep because of what I did to him. I cried myself to sleep knowing that I couldn't tell him what was in my heart. We found him here. Here, of all places, one of the places he has never even wanted to come to."
Tears formed in Kay's eyes as she continued to tell Lacey what she has done.
"I love him. I love him more than my own life. Why did I push him away? You. You. You. All because of you. He was with you nearly every time I saw him. The man holding you back from me right now and our father both showed me that I was making the biggest mistake of my life by not telling Bradin the truth and by making you happy before myself. They even showed me how much I hurt him. I hurt him more than I thought. I try to make things right and you go ans ruin it."
Kay lowered her and breathed feeling pain in her stomach. She looked back up at her sister.
"Take him if you want. But, I doubt he wants you."
After that, Kay walked away with people clapping. Bradin just looked at Lacey shaking his head.
