His lips were soft on mine. He kissed me passionately and I kissed him back. He held me close to him tightly. We broke away from our kiss and he said “That’s what I needed to tell you.” he smiled. “Wow, I wasn’t ready for that. Thank you.” I replied. “For what?” he asked. “For showing me what you needed to tell me.” I blushed and thought, ‘So he does like me…He just kissed me!’ And that’s when I chose Justin over Cody. “I really like you Lacie and I wanted to tell you for the longest time, but I couldn’t find the words.” he explained. “I wanted to tell you that I liked you too, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it.” I said. “It’s ok.” he replied. “I need to go see what Cody wants, but I’ll be back in a little bit.” he frowned and said “Alright.” in disappointment. He gave me a sweet kiss on the cheek and I started walking towards the California Café.
I got there exactly at two despite my little encounter with Justin. I saw cody sitting at a table drinking some water. I walked to the entrance and made my over to him. “Hey cutie.” he said once he saw me. I blushed and said “Hey.” I sat in the chair across from him. “So what do you want to talk about?” I asked. “How anout that kiss last night and the fact that I like you.” he answered. “Um, what about it?” I questioned. “Well did you like it and will you be girlfriend?” I froze and tried to think of a way to break the news to him about Justin. “Um, last night you kind of caught me off guard. I did like the kiss, but I’m sort of seeing someone else at the moment.” I explained. “Justin…” was all he said. His face was full of disappointment and anger. He got up from his chair and walked out of the café. I got a bad feeling that he was going to do something to Justin so I called him.
The phone rang only once and Justin immediately pick up. “Hey, Lace. What happened?” he asked. “Well, he asked me to be his girlfriend. I told him that I was already seeing someone. He looked really mad and said your name then left. Please watch out for him. I don’t want you to get hurt.” I said. “Are you implying that I cant take him?’ he said. I laughed and said, “No, I just care about you, that’s all. Well I’m going to go to my house, get dressed, and then heading down to the beach. Meet me?” I asked. “Definably.” he replied. “Ok, bye.” and we hung up. I walked out of the café and headed towards home.
I then saw a familiar car in front of me, a black mustang, but I couldn’t remember who’s car it was. I thought a little harder and remembered that it was Cody’s. I stared at the car wondering where he was going and I noticed that he was turning around, but why? As he started speeding towards me, I started to get nervous. His car is almost next to me so I moved closer and closer to the store buildings on the side of the round as I could be so that he couldn’t get any closer to me than he already was. He stopped at the curb beside me, wound down the window and said, “Get in.” “I’m fine walking.” I replied and started walking faster. “I said get in!” he yelled back. “I said no! You don’t take rejection very well, do you?” I yelled back and kept walking.
I didn’t look back but I heard a car door open. Once I heard that I started running. I could heard foot steps behind me. It’s a good thing that I’m not far from home. I felt a hand on my shoulder and the force of his hand was strong and brought me to the ground. He stood above me angrily. “What do you want?” I asked.
