Author's Note:
I understand this chapter is really short but I didn't feel the need to make it long because I said everything I needed in this chapter. It's also quite serious but meh you'll live I guess.
review please :)
Some time later when everything died down the Principal managed to get hold of all of us. She told us to go and see her first thing in the morning to collect our prizes. This was something she could have actually told us in the morning when we came to school. Everyone started to pour out of the auditorium and home. Melody congratulated me and I her. She then walked off with her parents. Rosa, Lysander, Violette and Leigh also congratulated me before getting into Leigh's car. They had a double date planned or something. I wasn't listening properly. My sister and Nathaniel got a ride for my auntie who was clapping like a seal when she came out. She said that 'we simply must have a meal to celebrate'. I thanked her and before I realised she was driving off, without me... Walking it was for me. I saw a familiar red-head walk past me so I ran up to him. We had yet to talk.
"You are not getting a ride off me so don't even bother." He said coldly, not even looking at me.
"I don't want a ride. I just think you should stop being so childish and not ignore me." I replied walking along side him.
"I'm the childish one? You ran away after a kiss that meant nothing... You've behaved like a child. Constantly avoiding me and running away every time we're alone."
"That kiss may have meant nothing to you Castiel but to me it meant a lot! You don't get it do you? You don't understand what you did..."
"No I don't understand what I did. Explain it to me go on..."
"You took something from me! Something that I won't ever get back and now your saying it was meaningless! Well it wasn't to me!"
"You're talking like I raped you and took your virginity!" He laughed.
"You know what you took? You took my first kiss! That's why it didn't mean nothing to me. I wanted it to be special but you made sure that it wasn't!"
"Oh... I didn't know..."
"Yeah oh." I said and started walking away from him. I just wanted to have a normal conversation with him for once and explain why I was being moody but no, of course that wasn't going to happen, this is Castiel we're talking about.
"Scarlett I-I'm So-"
"Forget it Castiel." I had enough. I was over it...kind of.
"No I'm serious. I'm-"
I stopped in my tracks and turned around. I was furious with him. How dare he? I walked towards him. I was ready to hit him but that wouldn't exactly help. I settled on shouting.
"Castiel! Just stop! I don't need your pity. That's why I didn't tell you. Now if you excuse me I have a long way home." I said
"Get on." He said.
"What?"
"Get on." He said pointing to a black and red Harley Davidson standing behind him."The least I could do is give you a lift."
I looked at the motorbike in terror. I hated motorbikes. I couldn't deal with them. I thought they were unsafe, very unsafe in fact. There was no particular reason other than that it didn't make sense to could something so heavy move on two wheels without falling to the side.
"Aww is Rapunzel scared of Bullet?" I looked at him and laughed.
"Wait... you named your motorbike Bullet? Wow Castiel." I said laughing.
"Bullet is an awesome name for a Harley Davidson. Just like demon is an awesome name for a German Shepherd." He said. I laughed again.
"Who in the right mind would name their dog Demon." I said and looked at him. He just stared at me in dissaprovement.
"... you. Who else. Of course you named your dog Demon after all your bike is called Bullet." I looked at him slightly mockingly before he pulled me towards the bike. I spoke to myself more than him when I said that. I was so stupid. It was obvious. He got on and looked at me.
"Well get on. Unless you want to stand here for who knows how long." I reluctantly got on the back of the bike. His hands grabbed my arms and made them wrap around his waist. I could feel the leather of his jacket on my bare arms and even though he wore a shirt I could feel his toned abs through it. I blushed slightly at how close we were.
"Wait. Before we go. Here." He said taking off his jacket and passing it to me. I looked at him."Well go on put it on. You're a girl, you get cold easier." I unwrapped my arms and put his jacket on. It was like a mini radiator around me. I snuggled it before wrapping my arms around Castiel again.
We rode in silence. Nothing needed to be said. The night sky was beautiful and the trees around us added to it. Castiel in front, me at the back. The night sky and the wind in my hair. It was like a cliché from a movie. I despise clichés but I didn't mind this one. He drove me right outside my house. I got off the bike and walked towards my house. We said goodnight and Castiel said that I 'owe him one'. Now this part I can't be certain because it is such a unbelieveable thing but I'm sure Castiel smiled. A real smile, not one of his usual smirks. I walked back in to see my sister waiting on the couch. Well, waiting... she was asleep under a blanket. I locked the door and went up to my room. Only when i got there, I realised...
Castiel never asked for his jacket back...
