Fishing (Tori)

[Tori]

I stared off into the distance and Jace scooted closer to me again. He brushed my hair from my face and tucked it behind my ear. He wiped the tears from my face. I guess I didn't do a very good job of hiding it. "You don't need to cry. It wasn't your fault and, although it is sad it is still fate. No matter how bad things sometimes seem you just have to remember that everything has a reason. This storm happened for a reason, her dying happened for a reason, I happened for a reason. Everything has a purpose."

A reason? I suppose. But it didn't seem like it at the time. It still doesn't. Why would it happen? He put his arm around my again, and I pulled closerto him. I need comort, I hadn't talked about this more than once. I never let it go. I laid my head on his shoulder and let the tears fall. I hoped he wouldn't mind they were landing on his shoulder. "I definitely don't think you're annoying. You are smart, caring, musical, beautiful. Any person would be lucky to know you and I am taking advantage of this storm by doing just that."

Beautiful? I smiled. Uh-huh, sure. Most people don't even like to look at me. "Thank you." I whisper. It was a little muffled from my being upset. Storm was really nice, and he didn't seem at all like he hated me. Maybe I'll get a real friend by the end of this day. I smiled to myself. Pulling my hands up to my face I wiped my tears away. "Sorry about your shirt." I half laughed. I pulled his jacket closer to my body as the wind started to pick up. "So, erm, anything interesting happen in your life?"

"No, nothing ever seems to happen to me .... I might be ignoring what has happened to me but the way I see it is never look back. Always look ahead. Keep moving. I always say that it is better to keep going forward than to look backwards and start a fight. I know it is sometimes really hard to do but ... it is worth it."

Storm allowed her to cuddle closer to him, not worrying about the teardrops. He smiled to himself and said, "You know, if you think about it, I'm weirder than you think you are. I don't allow myself to feel upset and you just let it all out. In ways, you are a better person than me." He moved his arm from around her shoulders to around her waist as they sat there. He waited for a reply.

[[SORRY I HAVE NOT BEEN REPLYING FOR SO LONG]]

"No, nothing ever seems to happen to me .... I might be ignoring what has happened to me but the way I see it is never look back. Always look ahead. Keep moving. I always say that it is better to keep going forward than to look backwards and start a fight. I know it is sometimes really hard to do but ... it is worth it." He spoke the words strongly, and I liked to listen to his voice.

He continued. "You know, if you think about it, I'm weirder than you think you are. I don't allow myself to feel upset and you just let it all out. In ways, you are a better person than me." His hand moved rom my shoulder to my waist, and pulled me a bit closer. Me? A better person? I smiled. He seemed like a pretty good person to me.

"So, how come I haven't really seen you around before?" I returned to me rambling self. "I mean I prettymuch walk around everywhere, and I don't think I've ever really seen you anywhere. Not school, or my the docks, or anywhere really. Why?"

[rizzo13]

"Well ..... I don't know ...... I guess we just never noticed each other until now. Do you wish we hadn't met or are you OK with meeting?" Storm smiled as he moved his face closer to her's. He looked into her eyes for an answer but found none so he waited for her to say something.

Storm leaned forward just the slightest bit and made their lips touch. He then scooted back again and smiled. "Was that OK?" He moved his hand from her waist to her hand and he slid his into hers. He then squeezed her gently as he looked into her eyes, waiting for an answer.

"Well ..... I don't know ...... I guess we just never noticed each other until now. Do you wish we hadn't met or are you ok with meeting?" He moved his face closer to mine, and just stared into my eyes. I don't think I've ever seen something with such an intense stare and such brilliant green eyes. The rain, the sound of the thunder, everything seemed to disappear. I think or the first time, I couldn't find something to say.

I opened my mouth a little,"um..I..well, of course I'm glad." I closed my eyes and smiled at him. Suddenly his lips were pressed again mine. I think I stopped breathing. I open my eyes, and he scotted back slighty. "Was that okay?" He removed his hand from around my wait and placed it on my hand and squeezed. He was searching my ace for answers, I could tell.

I opened my mouth to say something, but nothing came out and I abrutly closed it. His blond hair was blowing slight in the wind ((I can't remember if he has hair that could blow in the wind or not. ))

"Yes." I whispered, blushing intensly,"That was fine." I wondered what Gabby would think of this.[/blockquote][/size]

(lolz)

You seem ..... nervous or something. Are you sure you're OK?" Storm fidgeted with her hand as he once again began to search her face for some kind of sign as to what she was thinking or feeling. She wasn't showing any emotion so he leaned forward and brushed the hair from behind her eyes and then leaned back again, choosing not to kiss her.

Storm waited for her to say something as he sat there, his eyes pressed in a stare as cold as rock. His eyes pierced into hers, waiting arrogantly for an answer. Her face was like a ball of wool. Emotionless. He sat there, his blond hair slightly flying in the wind (lol), waiting for her to say something that might make him happy or might make him angry. Either answer was an answer and that was all he needed.

"You seem ..... nervous or something. Are you sure you're OK?" he whispered. I smiled, as he played nervously with my hand. He leaned close again and pushed my hair away from my face. Then he backed off.

His stare was instense and I could tell he was trying to read my thoughts. Good thing he couldn't. Does this mean he likes me? Should I say something about what just happened? I wonder when it's going to stop raining. Is he going to kiss me again? Does he really like me?

I smiled at him. "I'm fine. Really." I squeezed his hand or reasurrence. "It's just been a long time since I've talked with anyone, even long since I thought of anyone in this way. I'm not really sure how this happened, but you've gotten meto completely open up. Which is weird for me to say, and I'm rambling again aren't I?" I shut my mouth blushing, and looked down at my knees.

Storm smiled as she began to talk so much and fast that she began to sound like someone who mixed beer and coffee and then drank 27 glasses. He knew it sounded cheesy but he said to her, his face now inches from hers, "You talk too much," before leaning into her lips once again. He moved his right arm to her waist and he moved his left to her lower back, running it up and down.

Storm thought about what she had said. She had said that she hadn't felt this way in a long time. So she liked him. That was a good sign. It wouldn't be a good thing to be making out with someone who hardly knew him. He seemed as though he had told her his life story in about 2 hours. It was so amazing and it was so .......... destined.

"You talk too much," he laughed. Then Storm leaned in touching his lips to mine. He placed his hands on my waist and lower back. Our kissing intensified. It's amazing what can happened in such a short time. It seemed to be raining less, and I wondered if the storm was over. I suprised I had survived the entire thing without being extremely frightened.

Storm and I broke apart. I'm most certain my face was a deep red. I smiled and looked away. I guess he does like me. I turned toward him again when I thought my face had returned to its normal colour. "Should we be heading back now?" I asked wondering what time it was. It was deffinately dark now and the only light was the moon. My hunger was returning and I wondered what my mother made for dinner. I turned to Storm for his answer.

"Okay. As long as I get to see you again soon," he said smiling. He took her hand and pulled her up with him as he stood. He looked up into the clouds and could see that the storm was over and wasn't returning any time soon. He led her back to the district, smiling. He couldn't wait to be with her again. He couldn't wait to feel what he did when they kissed. He just hoped he could wait.
