6. More Spilled Tears

The title is foreboding. Sorry :(

Throwing on a pair of skinnies with a longline crop top under my leather jacker and flats, I got in my car after loading up my purse with the necessities. On my way there I found myself strangely nervous but brushed it off and turned up the radio so I couldn't focus on anything else. I pulled up to the little movie theater in the town right outside of Forks and waited.

I waited for a half an hour in my car then the rain started to come down. I grabbed the umbrella from the back seat and stepped out in case I hadn't seen Jared to in and he was waiting for me- even though our date was supposed to have started twenty minutes ago. I was positive I hadn't seen him go in.
I waited outside of the theater for about twenty more minutes when I became furious. He had clearly set up this fake date to get back at me for kissing him. I shouldn't have kissed him that was just stupid of me to assume that he finally felt something for me. I had walked stupidly into his plan being naive and oblivious.

I reached into my purse to call him and give him a piece of my mind but found that I had left my phone at home on the charger.

Angrily I ran through the rain and got back inside my car to drive away.

Halfway through Forks, my car decided to hate me as well by breaking down. I punched the steering wheel angrily and sat there in my broken down car on the side of the road for a little bit but I got cold quickly because I'd forgone a rain coat for an umbrella. I dug through the back seat of the car only to find nothing of use to me for my new plan of walking home. I flipped down one of the seats to see what was in the trunk. I thankfully found a pair of rain boots but they were just a little bit too small however they would have to make due. I jammed my feet in them and opened the door to open my umbrella, grabbed my purse then locked the car and set out walking.

As I walked I froze. The wind was whipping and cars driving by were constantly splashing me as they whizzed by. I longed to take the short cut through the woods where I'd be a little more protected from the rain, the wind, and the cars but now that I knew about Jared I wanted to stay as far away from the woods as possible. So instead I kept going on the frigid road praying that my family would come back early from Port Angeles and pick me up. Or anyone of my friends would come to pick me up just sensing that I needed help. That of course didn't happen so I trudged all the way to the entrance into La Push.

I didn't live far and I knew the path that connects the entrance to my neighborhood well. It didn't stray too far from the road but was significantly shorter. At this point I was drenched to the bone. My arms didn't want to hold the umbrella up anymore, my toes were being pinched by the shoes, and I was shaking from the cold. I just wanted to stop. I looked at my watch and saw that it was almost 7:30. I got furious at Jared and kept going.

I finally made it home shortly after eight. I immediately boiled some water and ran upstairs for a nice warm shower. I heard the kettle go off so I stepped out of the shower and wrapped myself in a towel leaving my hair dripping a little. I walked briskly down the stairs to shut off the stove. I grabbed my favorite mug and filled it up with the steaming water then walked off to the pantry for the hot chocolate mix. As I was stirring the mix in, someone knocked on the door.

"I'm coming!" I called but couldn't figure out who it was since all my friends and family would have just walked in.

Completely forgetting I was in nothing but a towel, I swung the door open only to see Jared Cameron standing there looking very sheepish. As soon as he saw it was me, in a towel, he quickly averted his gaze.

"Jared." I said angrily.

"Kim, wait! Please let me explain." Jared begged as I slammed the door shut and locked it.

"No!" I yelled.

"I called you to tell you something came up. I couldn't go. Sam wouldn't let me." he yelled as I walked up the stairs and his voice got softer and softer the further away from it I got. Once in my room I got dressed and turned on my iPod in order to block him out more.

Jared's a tool.
