Chapter 14: Oak Tree
I loved Cry... I loved Cry! Oh god... As I realised this, I felt myself freeze. I felt Cry stop moving as well and he asked me something but I was only vaguely aware of what he was saying.
"Bree, are you okay...?"
I had to get out of here. I... I had to think!
"Bree?"
I had to get out of here! Now! I turned and ran. I heard Cry and the others call after me but I ignored them and carried on running. I ran though the small streets until I found the small park area I had visited this morning. There was also a large oak tree just behind it. I ran over to it and leant up against it, trying to catch my breath; but my heart was still beating very fast. Too many mixed up emotions!
I sighed and slumped down to the ground and buried my face in my hands. I couldn't handle this! This was all so much easier when I was on my own! But... But Cry has given me so much these last couple months! Friendship, happiness, hope, faith, my family... Love...
There was no way in denying it! I loved Cry! I could either be a woman about it and confront him and tell him how I feel or hide away and wait for Glitcher's to come and find me. Am I really that much of a chicken? Yep. I'm as bad as KfC. Oh god, I miss KFC! Never thought I'd say that! Yep and this is what happens when I'm all confused; my brain turns into a tornado of thoughts and mixed emotions.
"Bree?"
I yelped and jumped to my feet. I looked around and saw Cry standing not too far away. I sighed and looked down, trying to flatten out my dress which was crumpled up a little bit.
"H-hey..." I muttered.
"Bree, why did you run off?" Cry asked taking a step towards me.
"I, I..." I tried to explain but faltered and looked down.
"Bree, come on... You can tell me." Cry said with a half hearted grin.
"But at the same time I can't!" I snapped looking up at him.
"Why not?!" Cry said beginning to get annoyed.
"Because...!" I couldn't think of anything.
"Because what?!" Cry snapped.
"Because...! Because I like someone and I'm scared to lose them!" I shouted.
Cry faltered and stared at me, shocked. "You...you like someone?"
"Yes! And I can't tell him how I feel because I'm scared he might reject me and if he's killed in action by a Glitcher or a human being, I... I don't know what I'll do!" I shouted.
"So do you have any idea how selfish you're being?" Cry said calmly looking at me.
"What?!" I said confused.
"You're becoming distant from your friends and holding out on them! And whoever this guy is, he deserves to know! You may think your doing the right thing but your not! That person deserves to know!" Cry shouted.
"It's not that simple Cry!" I snarled at him. "And you're one to talk! You hide away all the time behind a mask!"
We both froze as I said that. I covered my mouth with my hand and I stared at Cry shocked. I watched as his jaw set into a rigid shape and a grimace then formed on his lips. I can't believe I said that...
"Cry, I- I didn't mea-" I began to say but he cut me off.
"No. You did mean it. Well how about this? Ill go back to hiding behind my mask while you go and make out with Ken!" Cry said and turned and began to walk off.
Wait... What?! He thought I liked Ken?! I met him a couple days ago when we first arrived while Jund was still in the infirmary! We had talked for a bit and I had given him a uh when he led me to my brother and sister but that was it! Oh Cry, you daft twat!
"Cry!" I called him but he carried on walking. "CRY!"
"WHAT?!" He shouted turning back around.
"You think I like Ken?!" I scoffed.
"Well...you do, don't you?" Cry said still with an angry expression on his face.
He stood there breathing deeply as he tried to control his anger and frustration. He ran a hand through his dark brown hair, causing the curls to become more messy. I couldn't help but notice how nice he looked tonight. He was wearing the usual faded jeans and green hoodie he always wore. He had dressed up nicely; wearing a white dress shirt untucked and dark - almost black - trousers. He still had his mask on but I could still see his mouth - it was pulled into a straight line as he stood there angrily.
"No I don't." I said.
"Well, who then?" He snapped.
I sighed. Here goes nothing I guess.
"Cry... I like you!" I said.
"What...?" He said quietly.
"I always have! Ever since I first met you back in St Petersburg months ago. This sounds seriously cheesy but I don't give a shit anymore! I don't like Ken, I hardly know him for gods sake! It's you I like Cry...!" I sighed and looked up at Cry who was still standing a bit away.
He stared at me for a moment before he quickly advanced towards me. I took a step back confused as he got rid of the distance between us and he cupped my face with both of his hands...
Then he leant down and kissed me.
I froze but then I relaxed as his lips met mine and I began to kiss him back. I wrapped my arms around his neck and I felt his hands leave my face and he placed them on my waist. I smiled and closed my eyes. The kiss began to grow more passionate and I felt us back up and till my back hit the oak tree gently. We kissed for a while a longer before we broke apart to be able to breathe once again. We stood there panting, our foreheads touching and we still were wrapped in each others embrace.
After I caught my breath back, I looked up at Cry and he looked at me; then we both let out a laugh and just stood there smiling for a moment, looking at each other. He leant down and kissed my forehead, then both of my cheeks and then my lips once again and I couldn't help but smile.
"Yeah!"
Wait. I didn't say anything, neither did Cry. Who the hell was watching us? We both turned and looked. Standing at the bottom of the tiny hill we was on, was none other than freaking Russ and Jund!
"You f*ckers!" Cry laughed and began to walk towards them quickly.
"Run Jund, run!" Russ shouted and they began to run away.
"Hey! I'm still injured!" Jund said, limping after Russ.
"Every man for himself!" Russ called back.
"Coward!" Jund shouted back but Ke out a girlish squeal as Cry grabbed him in a head lock and noogied him.
I laughed and walked down the hill quickly to reach them.
"Lets all head back." I smiled.
And we all did after Russ walked back to us to help Jund walk. As we walked along, I felt Cry's hand slip ton my own and he grinned at me. I couldn't help but smile and give his hand a squeeze. And he squeezed my hand back.

I love you guys... :3
