Love Fight
Chapter 6
Dylan
The clock flashed, it was 7:25pm. Dylan was 25 minutes late for his hockey game. Dylan quickly jumped out of the full sized bed and threw his clothes on. He was out of door in 20 minutes still half sleeping. As he walked across the street he closed his eyes for a split second. Just at that second two cars came down the street going both ways. His hearing picked up loud shouts of people and his eyes opened slowly. The cars swerved to miss him. Out of the corner of his eye he caught sight of a girl. The girl was running up to him. Who was it? When she finally came up to him he recognized her. It was Ellie.
"What were you thinking???? Are you okay????!! Dumb Ass" Ellie was mad.
Ellie started to walk away. Dylan stayed still. Why I am not going after her? Why did I nearly just kill myself? If I want to catch up with her I should get up now. He got up and went running after him. He felt weighed down by his lacrosse equipment but that didn't matter. He could care less if he fell off or if it banged him the face. All he wanted to do was catch up with Ellie and explain to her why he rejected her that one rainy night.
It seemed like it had gotten darker, he wondered what time it was. His coach would be angry at the star player for missing the game.
Dylan was now near another old run down 7 eleven. Gosh there sure are a lot of 7 elevens around here. Probably for the fat guys who want to get drunk, he thought as he passed the store. He stopped and looked around. Ellie was nowhere in sight. He looked again and saw her talking to a lady. The lady looked really old and had torn clothes on. At her feet was a jar which held a couple of pennies. She felt his glanced and looked back. She started to run again. The old lady went back to begging for pennies. Dylan was fed up with his equipment that was strangling him. He threw it all on the hard cement for someone else to have or sell. Ellie was running in an alley that was full of clothes hanging window to window and building that looked liked people lived in them.
I must be in a poor area, he thought. Why would Ellie take me here?
Dylan had finally gotten Ellie. She had nowhere to go. There were surrounding buildings all around her. She panicked, it was noticeable.
"Ellie, please just let me talk to you," Dylan said to her. He was twenty feet away from where she stood. Ellie looked at him with full focus.
Dylan started explained, "The reason why what happened at the party happened was because I think I'm gay,"
The last two words took Ellie on a surprise and she nearly fainted. She had fallen in love with a guy that was gay. This was her worst nightmare.
