HI!
I kind of fixed my computer about five minutes ago, so ya. It's all better now. XD XD ;) ^-^
Well, I've been up for over 24 hours trying to type up all the chapters that I need/want to, but it's been hard; I had to re-type this chapter like, four times and it's STILL not the way I want it, but at this point I'm really pissed off and I just want to go to freaking bed. Well, that and I haven't eaten in a long time either, so I might be starving myself just to get this chapter out. Nah, I'm kidding. I'm not that hungry. XD XD

The rain poured down on to my head, drenching me harder and faster. The thunder rumbled again, and I made it to the car, where I quickly flung the door open, and leaped in, slamming the door behind me. The rain was coming down in torrents again, and pounding against the windows of the car.
Maya Cale was laughing at me, her dark eyes a light with fun. Her dark, soot black hair was held back in a hair band the color of salmon, and her tanned skin shone healthily, like some sort of on going ball of energy.
Maya had to have been my best friend–and I had been her's–since the start of our lives. We had done everything together; we had been through all the grades together, we had went to our first horror movie together, we had been to our first high school dance together, and we had even been through sex education together, in which case, we had been the ones to laugh through most of it and pass notes through it.
She kept laughing, but the laughter died down a few seconds later. "Okay who the hell was hot stuff over there?" Maya asked, her eyes bright and wide.
I tucked my limp curls behind my ears. Questions bubbled to my lips, but only one snuck out. "Don't you have a boyfriend?" I replied hotly, raising my eyebrows at her.
"I do, but that doesn't mean I can't look," Maya replied, tossing her hair behind her shoulders before she quickly threw the car in reverse, and then stomped on the gas pedal. I clutched on to the door frame for support as we pulled out of the parking lot at an insane speed.
"Still," I said, shaking my head and smiling.
Then I let my mind wander. I mean, I had left him there, but why would he have gone to the gas station? For gas, I hope, but the station wasn't open for another twenty minutes, so he could be standing out in the rain for a long time . . . without a shirt . . . probably freezing his tail bone off. My heart lurched, and I could barely breath, or think of anything else.
"Wait, Maya, go back." The words were out of my mouth before I could stop them.
"What?" Maya looked at me as if I was going crazy. Her black eyebrows furrowed, and she was shaking her head. "I ain't going back."
Again, I found myself thinking of a freezing Jacob. His eyes would look cold, like frozen ice cream,and he would be drenched in rain, and it would be dripping off of him in rivers and it would be my fault that he was freezing because I had taken his shirt. . . .
I sighed, knowing that I had one last thing to say to her. "I'll introduce you to hot stuff."
Maya eyes brightened instantly, and she was turning the steering wheel frantically, and I burst out laughing as she was grinning. I could almost hear the water spraying away from the tires, and the gray sleets of rain where blinding, and I had no clue how Maya was actually able to see through the wind shield. Suddenly, we jerked to a stop, and I almost went flying into the dash.
"Go get him. Now." Maya's reply was short before she went and started to fluff in her hair in the rear view mirror.
I rolled my eyes, laughed, and then opened the door and swung it open. The cool air blasted me, and made me shiver again. It had gotten colder, and deep in my heart, I felt really horrible. What if Jacob was frozen to death?
I quickly got out, and I was greeted by a bucket of rain of my head and a loud crack of thunder. I grumbled some cusses under my breath and I could feel the coolness echoing through my body at a very fast rate. I gulped and went running through the misty, watery world, so fast that I barely knew where I was going.
It was still pouring buckets as I reached my destination, which was the door where I had left Jacob. He was still there, looking as glorious as he had before. His hair was flopping into his eyes because of the water, and every so often he would toss his head to the side to get the hair out of his eyes. His russet skin was gleaming, and he just looked . . . beautiful.
He must have heard my approach; he whipped his head in my direction and he grinned at me, like I was the best thing he had ever seen. The water dripped off of my curls and into my eyes, which made me wipe the water away.
Jacob looked around, his face going from happy to concerned. "What are you still doing out? You're going to get sick."
I smiled, shivering again as another clash of thunder rumbled through the air. The wind blew, making my cheeks sting with the cold. "I'm fine," I told him. "But what about you? Are you okay?"
Jacob raised an eyebrow. "As good as can be expected." He motioned with one hand to the rain.
I nodded, and then I looked away, biting my bottom lip. I wasn't sure how to word what I was about to ask. I mean, he would probably think I was some sort of creeper or something, and that would just not be good. My stomach clenched into a fist as I looked up at him, getting lost in his wonderfully good looks.
"Didn't you friend come and pick you up? You should go back to her," he said, his voice kinder then before. "I don't mind getting rained on."
I sighed out, "But, well, you'll be alone. And cold."
"I won't be cold," Jacob said, shaking his head. His smile was mischievous. "I have a really good temperature tolerance. I'll just be cool, if anything. But, ya, I guess I'll be alone." His voice was curious.
"Exactly. Which is why I came back for you."
Hehehe.
