(this is one of my stories. Enjoy! 4laugh )


I sat on the steps. Thinking about everything we went through. We went through it together. But we never would have guessed that distance would come between us. Him and his unsuccesful band trying to pull it along and me staying at home. I do love him and care for him but it just felt different. Somehow different. I don't know how long I had sat on the stairs but I suddenly heard someone call out my name.
"Rain?"
I quickly looked up to see Frank standing there on the street.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
I nodded and got up to clean off my butt.
"Waiting for someone?" he kept pushing for answers.
"Nope"
We stood uncomfortably infront of eachother in the biggest, most uncomfortable silence there could be.
"Well, I'm going to the coffee shop...wanna come?" Frank slowly blurted out.
"Sure"
I could get away from this house. It's not exactly doing any good on me.


We entered the smokey coffee shop where soon I was eaten up by so many noises and sounds. There were so many college kids here, labtops clicking away, people on cell phones. Frank led me towards a booth all the way in the back.
"So what would you like you cutie?" he joked.
I couldn't help but blush and I hoped it didn't show.
"One Mocha Frappucino..doesn't matter what flavor." I told him.
He left and as soon as he did he returned with two cold coffee's.
Everytime I took a sip he would steal a glance at me and everytime he did I'd blush.
"We haven't hung out like this in a while." he commented.
"I know. I've sorta missed it."
"Yeah same here. So how are you and Jerad going."
I swallowed. Should I tell him the truth. Or should I lie and say everything's alright. I don't know how well I could lie to him.
"I'm guessing not as well as it could be?" he pushed.
"No, he's leaving me so much now. I don't know where he's going. It's his stupid band and we never do the things we used to." I spilled but the moment I shut my mouth I wanted to take it back. He doesn't want to hear this.
"Do the things you used to? Like what?" he kept asking.
"Do things...you know... like this. Just simply go out. Be together" I reluctantly answered. Unsure if he really wanted to know.
"Stuff like that happens and"
"You don't know why or when"
"It just does"
We finished eachother's lines. I guess he went through the same thing I did. He sort of smiled and it made me melt all over. His black chin length hair sort of curled at the end. His dark eyes shining out at me. His thin lips slightly curled. I looked down feeling myself flush. I shouldn't be feeling this way. Me and Jerad could still work things out. Suddenly I saw his hand reach out to mine.
"Everything will work out" he promised.
Then the awkward silence came over us again. I now felt myself sweat. Should I saw something. What could I say? Oh my god I'm so stupid. I should say something.
"May I have this dance?" he joked around again.
"What? Here?!" I said shocked at the slightly serious tone in his voice. "You're joking right?"
"Nope" he answered.
He grabbed both my hands and pulled me off of the seat. I felt his arm hug my waist and pull me closer to his chest. We began traveling through the isles and near tables. Near the college kids who looked up at us only to smirk and continue what they were doing. We got some dirty glances from the older residents of the coffee shop. And most people were more than annoyed. I felt embarrassed as I looked at all the faces staring at us, that's when Frank held my face up to his. I felt a warm, flood rush through me as I stared up into his warm face. I noticed how close I was to him. Chest against chest. I felt I could melt into him any time now. Or release bursts of rainbows where we touched. My dream land with prince charming who was slightly on the rough side was suddenly interrupted by a phone ringing. It was exactly like on of those commercials in movie theatre's. I could almost hear the "Please turn all cell phone's off" announcement anytime soon.
"Ummm...I think you'r pants are ringing" Frank whispered.
"Oops" I grabbed for my cell and answered only to discover the exact person I didn't want to talk to was calling me. It was...
