Confused

[Lola_La_Fringe7]

Jackie was sitting on the bank of the river holding her knees to her chest.  She was curled up in a ball and her head was spinning.  The trees seemed to point sideways as so many faces flew through her mind, some sweet and some horrible.  Some she felt afraid of and some she longed to see. 

Her memories flashed back to the dreams she'd had over the past days.  The same person.  He was everywhere and she couldn't get him out of her head.  He could tear her life apart or complete it and he had no idea.  But she was to afraid to tell him. 

She grabbed a fistful of her blonde hair and tugged, frustrated. A tiny tear rolled down her face and she flicked it away wondering what emotion it could be from. She stopped and jumped up at a noise in the forest.

Nate was walking around and was just planning on thinking..about everything. And then he noticed a figure, he paused taking a step back when he realized who it was. He didnt want to disturb her but then he stepped on twig that layed crookedly on the ground, making a loud crack noise. His eyes turned wide and he smiled at her. He walked over to her, figuring that she already knew he was there,"Hey," he said softly. Sitting by her and then he finally looked at her directly. He asked even more softly,"Whats a matter?"

Jackie almost jumped again when she saw who it was. She let go of he hair she had tangled between her fingers and half smiled back. "Hey." She said softly, then she looked up at him, immediately turning her gaze away again. She slid her toes into the freezing water, pausing for a moment. "Everything." She replied, confusion layering her voice in every syllable.

Nate looked at her with concerned eyes,"Thats harsh. What is exactly "everything" mean?" he asked softly and serenly.

[Lola_La_Fringe7]

"Everything is my entire world, every person I know. Something is wrong between me and everyone." SHe replied, still gazing at the water as if it were showing her a movie.

[nate]

Nate moved closer to her, keeping her comfort,"Do you want to talk," he asked softly as he looked at her.

[Lola_La_Fringe7]

"I-I don't know..." Jackie said softly keeping her eyes on the ground.  "I have no idea what to talk about." SHe admitted, finally looking up and almost smiling.

[nate]

Nate  smiled shyly at her,"Its alright, ill just stay here with you until you are ready to leave."

[Lola_La_Fringe7]

Jackie stared at the ground, but suddenly looked up. "Do you like me or not?" She asked. "I need to know because I don't want to be hurt anymore." She added slowly and softly.

[nate]

Nate looked up in surprise and then his gaze softened,"I like you, i promise," he said softly. He wanted her and he knew i but he was too scared to tell her.

[Lola_La_Fringe7]

"Thank you." Jackie said leaning over on his shoulder. "That clears a lot up. And you know, I like you too. A lot." She said blushing and looking at the ground again.

[nate]

Nate kissed her softly on her cheek,"Yeah? Well thats good cause i really like you alot too."

[Lola_La_Fringe7]

"Good." Jackie said smiling almost smugly. Her cheek burned hot where he kissed her, but it wasn't at all unpleasant. "That'd really suck if you didn't." She said almost laughing, but wincing as she thought of it.

[nate]

Nate shook his head, noticing her wince,"No thatd be impossible," he said softly.

[Lola_La_Fringe7]

Jackie looked down at the ground. "It wasn't impossible a week ago." She muttered to herself, but felt stupid when she realized she said it out loud.
