I DareYou.
Chapter
Four
I smiled, clearly
satisfied I made him blush. We ended up going to this small diner
on the corner of a street. I've never actually been there
before, even though I drove past it every day. He opened the
door, and the bells jingled.
"After you," he said in a strange accent, and
stepped aside, holding the door for me.
"Why thank you," I said in the same accent, and walked
in.
"Two," I said to the waitress, and she led us to a
table for two next to the window. She asked what we wanted to
drink, and we both wanted a coffee. She smiled, and said
she'd be back in a minute to take our order, leaving us
alone.
"Thank you," I said to Jace after she was gone.
"For what?" Jace asked. I shrugged.
"Everything. Giving me ride last night. Taking me out to
breakfast. It's just...I've never even talked to you
before, and you're being so nice to me," I said. He ran
a hand through his shaggy hair.
"Yeah, well, I saw that you needed a ride. I couldn't
just let you go with Dustin, he was completley wasted. And after
hanging out with you last night, I realized I kind of like
you," he shyly said. I could feel the heat rising in my
cheeks again, but I quicky composed myself.
"Well Jace," I started, leaning forward, "I kind
of like you too," I whispered. For a second, I thought for
sure he was going to lean forward to close the distance
between us until our lips touched, but the waitress came back to
take our order, snapping us back to reality. We both
violently blushed, and I felt terribly guilty.
Dustin. How could I have forgotten Dustin? I'm the worst
girlfriend ever. We ate our breakfast in silence, and when we
were done, he drove me home in silence too. As we pulled
up my driveway, he cut the engine, and we sat there for
a few minutes. Finally, I got out without a word. To my
suprise, he followed me.
"Jace, please just leave," I said. Jace
looked frustrated, and fiercley grabbed my shoulders, forcing me
to face him.
"Look Scarlett, I really do like you. I know you're with
Dustin, but...I don't know. I know you don't
know me, but I've known you since elementary. I just
want you know, that I always thought you were beautiful. Even
back then," he said, and released my shoulders, leaving
me there speachless. I stared as he got into his druck, and drove
off.
I felt empty. Why? I barley knew him.
But you like him, a voice in the back of my mind, that I
recognized as my own, whispered.
Crap.
