fingers into his, and a smile grew on his face as I did, a slight blush creeping on mine, but I recovered quickly. We all didn’t want to eat, so Rye and Elle got up to order us all Mcflurries.
“So, I saw you appreciating my dress over there.” I smiled.
“Yup, it’s really hot on you.” He said, smiling.
“You want to know something?” I asked.
“Yeah, I want to know everything.” He said, charming as always.
“Your jeans look hot on you.” I said, and we started laughing. Then they came back with our Mcflurries and then left without the keys, subtly wanting their own time alone and giving us some at the same time.
“So, what have you been up to?” I asked.
“Nothing really, just babysitting and practicing the guitar. What about you?” He asked looking curiously at me. Score! He plays guitar.
“Just practicing the vocals, and cheering of course. Drama is doing Glee, so I am practicing that, I’m trying out for Rachel or Quinn. I can’t decide, Rachel gets more solos and is one of the biggest parts, but Quinn is more like me personally, but she gets prego and I’m not sure I want to play that.” I said.
“Well, you’re always the star of my show, so I think you should go for Rachel.” He said, sweet as ever.
“Thanks, maybe I will.” I said, looking intently at him.
“You should, there’s an away game this Friday, are you coming?” He asked, looking at my eyes.
“Of course, our cheerleading squad has to go to every game, silly.” I teased him.
“Right, well I hope I can make a touchdown for you.” He said smiling.
“Well with that attitude you never will. You have to know you can.” I said, my cheering and winning tactics coming in. I’m a winner, never a loser.
“Ok, then I will make a touchdown for you, and we will win.” He said, smiling at my encouragement.
“Good job, you’re a quick learner.” I said, leaning in as he did and then being my playful self took a side dive and kissed his cheek, then laughed.
“You totally just tricked me! I’m so going to get you for that.” He said laughing. Reaching towards me, about to grab me. I was faster though, so I grabbed the keys and ran to the car, him chasing after me as I hopped into the driver’ seat.
“No fair, you totally cheated.” He said taking the keys from me.
“No I didn’t. Nobody said there were rules, and what do you think you’re doing? I’m driving, no way are you driving my new mustang, you are too reckless for that.” I said, taking the keys back. Girls were staring at me with jealousy, ironically Not like That by Ashley Tisdale was playing.
“Yes, I am. I want to drive super-fast. I promise not to be reckless with your new car.” He said, against my will, I knew that he wouldn’t wreck my car so I gave him the keys. “Thanks, ready to go?” He asked, as I scooted over and he hopped in.
“Totally.” Then he sped out, and got on the highway, going at least 80 miles an hour. “Jake! Slow down.” I said laughing at the expression of excitement on his face.
“No way! This car is better than my mustang, mine is only last year’s model.” He said laughing with me.
“Fine, but I’ll be aggravated if I have to explain burnt tires to my mom.” I said.
“Ok, I’ll slow down towards your driveway.” He said, making a compromise that I didn’t exactly agree to, but did anyway, my mom wouldn’t notice anyway. Before I knew it we were at my house, I kissed him goodbye and then he gave me my keys, then he took the keys to his car and left.
I walked in and walked up to my room. I texted all the girls and filled them in, then I of course had to say no to another football player on Facebook. Then I took a shower and got ready for a movie, to fall asleep to it. I put on Letters to Juliet, a very nice story to fall asleep to.
The next day I woke up and went to wake Elle up, and ask how her date went. I knocked on her door before entering, it was a privacy thing we had.
“Come in.” She groaned, and I walked in while she buried her face in her pillow, she must have gone to bed late.
“Good morning sleepy head. Thanks for yesterday, when did Rye leave anyway.” I said, and heard her inhale sharply. How sweet she’s worried about him, ew that’s gross, I hate committed relationships.
“He went home at like one in the morning. I’ve got to call him, and make sure he’s ok.” She said grabbing her phone. She dialed his number as I stood there. He’s hers, but I need to make sure he’s ok, for her right? Right.
“Hi. I’m Elle, why do you have Rye’s phone exactly?” She asked, sounding worried. They must have responded because she said, “I’ll be there as soon as I can, so, see you in fifteen minutes.” Then she hung up, shaking and as pale as a ghost.
Chapter 6: The accident that almost broke Elle’s heart
“What’s going on? You’re as pale as a ghost.” I asked concerned.
“Rye got…” her voice broke to tears. “... he got hit on his way home last night and he has a concussion. He’s unconscious and I have to go.” She said tears running down her face. I hugged her as tight as I could, because even though he wasn’t mine it hurt to know that. Why did this hurt so much? He isn’t mine and he won’t be. He loves Elle, not me, and I am dating Jake. I am so in trouble. I need to get my feelings straight.
I went to change, and then Jake and Jake’s mom drove us to the hospital. Elle hurried to his room and we decided to give them some time, so we just walked up the stairs while she ran. Jake hugged me, and comforted me.
“Jake, he’s unconscious; he will wake up won’t he?” I asked looking up with what I knew were tearing eyes.
“Of course, Aqua, he’ll wake up I promise.” He said, pulling me closer.
“Thanks.” I whispered in his ear before reaching up to kiss his cheek.
Then we got to the room, when Elle looked like she could take it I went inside.
“He’ll wake up Elle, because he has to.” I said, trying to sound sure. This isn’t fair, it shouldn’t hurt, he isn’t mine. He will wake up though, even if I have to slap him, that’s horrible but I know that I would do anything to get him up, for Elle. Right? Right.
“I know. He promised me I wouldn’t be left alone. Help me talk to him please.” She didn’t ask she begged. We talked to him for ten minutes, and so the others waited outside, being as patient as they could.
“Yeah Rye we are all here for you, and we are all waiting for you to wake up and smile.” I said, and he squeezed Elle’s hand. She leaned down and whispered something, most likely some I love you things.
“I love you, wake up, please.” I mumbled. OH MY GOD! Did I just say that? I hope she didn’t hear me. I’m dating Jake, not him and I can’t care about him, what am I doing? I needed to stop before I hurt myself, he wasn’t for me, he didn’t like me he liked Elle, Elle. That thought stung my eyes but I knew it was true. His eyelids fluttered, and we could see his eyes again. He smiled at Elle and she said what I wanted to. “I love you” she said it with passion and relief. I need to stop thinking about him, I am going to leave as soon as I can, I don’t want to hurt anyone, including myself.
“I love you to, Elle.” He said to her, which hurt and now the tears stopped streaming from me. This fight is over; I’m not going to have him. He belongs to Elle. Then they kissed, and he wiped the tears from her face.
“Elle, why are you crying?” He said as she broke away.
“You scared me to death. Next time, you ask for someone to give you a ride. I can’t believe I did this to you. If I hadn’t kept you so long you wouldn’t have gotten hurt. I am so sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt you, I didn’t. I really didn’t.” She said, tears falling from her eyes. He started to respond, but a shrill voice interrupted him.
“So it’s your fault! Get out of here and just get out all of you. If it weren’t for you, Rye would be at home okay!” She shouted at us, which made Elle cry harder. Rye pulled her closer, and hugged her tighter comforting her. Who the hell does she think she is? Just because I don’t mind Elle having him, doesn’t mean that I’m not peeved at this lady, besides she’s yelling at me to and that isn’t going to fly with me.
“Don’t yell at her mom. She didn’t know this would happen. Can’t you tell she’s upset about it? It will already take her months to forgive herself without you shouting at her, and making it worse!” He shouted at his mom, starting to comfort Elle again. Then he slowly released her as she became calmer and his mom stared at them.
“So you woke up for her, even though I’ve been here all day.” His mom said with jealousy.
“I didn’t do it on purpose. I just heard her, but yes, I was glad to see her face when I woke up, even if it was tear stained.” He said surely looking at Elle and nodding towards his mom.
“I see, well I’ll come by later. I have a meeting to attend and a party to plan.” She said gathering herself like she was excusing herself from a meeting. She had golden blonde hair streaked with grey, and she had a small pointy noise. A few minutes later we had to step out so that the doctors could check some stuff on him. Then we all walked back in smiling and teasing him about his accident.
“Geez dude you freaked us out.” Jake said giving Rye a pat on the shoulder. Rye just smiled and shrugged. We all talked to him for an hour while Elle stood in the corner watching us.
“Well Jake, we’ve got to get going, but we have time to drop the girls off if you want.” Tania, Jake’s mom, said as she stood and stretched. Elle came out of her corner, and not looking like she wanted to leave.
“Aqua you can go with them, I want to stay for a while.” She said looking at Rye. I bit my lip, I didn’t want to leave, but I left anyway. As we walked out to Jake’s car I saw Rye’s mom opening her car door, it was a Ferrari, and she was opening it with a tissue.
“A little prissy for this neighborhood and possibly a little too flashy to. Don’t you guys think?” I asked them a little louder than necessary. Jake and his mom played along, revenge is sweet.
“Yeah, definitely.” They agreed a little too loudly. It worked, we said it too loud for her to ignore, because she looked up and glared.
“Is there a problem with your car?” I asked, smiling as if I didn’t say a thing.
“Not at all.” She said a bit angry.
“Have a
