I Ran Away and Now I'm Here

[gogojojo331]

"where are you going?" He said groggliy

 

[iMeisaki]

"I gotta go see that Lady about the house and then I gotta go at my parents, I'll be back in a few days." She came over to kiss him. "I love you." Then she went back and started walking down the street towards the cafe.

 

[gogojojo331]

"I-" He sighed. She ran fast...faster than him...so he couldnt say anything to change her mind.

 

[iMeisaki]

Soon she was at the cafe. "Are you Miss Mullholland?" The woman asked. "Yes I am, but you can call me Rayes." She sat down at the small table. "I'm Lisa Towne. Now, you have $1,500?" She asked. "Yes I do, but I'll be getting more money shortly. Could that be enough?" Rayes asked. "Well..the owners wanted $2,000 if anyone was going to put a payment for that house..If you had that extra $500, we could've done a deal now but I can give you two days. If you have that money in the next two days, the house is yours. Another person is looking for that house." She said. "Oh..I'll have to see, could I call you if I had that money? Because I'll be gone for a few days and won't be back until Saturday. It's Monday so would there be anyway I could call you and you could hold that house down?" She asked. "I don't know, I'd have to ask the owners of the house.."


She answered. Rayes sighed. "Okay..Thank you for your time.." Rayes got up to go by the coffee bar. "You don't look so happy, let me get you coffee, it's the least I could do." She said. "Sure. Thanks.." Rayes went back to the seat and started drinking her coffee. "Well, I have to go deal with different houses. Have a nice day." The woman left and went to her car. Rayes just sighed and sipped her coffee. Things weren't going well...

He sat, and looked at the t.v, This was it....she was leaving him..

 

[iMeisaki]

Rayes was bored sitting at the table. It was empty and she hated being alone. She thought to herself that maybe Leland could come with her. Or maybe that would be too much to ask for. She finished her coffee and got up. Then she started walking back to his house just to ask. She sighed.

 

[gogojojo331]

He looked at the TV.

 

[iMeisaki]

She walked up to the stairs and looked at the door. Then, she knocked the door.

 

[gogojojo331]

He came, with a sleeveless t-Shirt.

 

[iMeisaki]

Once the door opened she looked down at her backpack. "The house was a bust...But I can't go to my parents alone.." She said trying to ask him to come with her.

 

[gogojojo331]

"I can go..." he said, going to get the keys.

 

[iMeisaki]

She waited at the door still looking down with her hands behind her back. "I just want to let you know not to let my mo- her get to you with her crazy talk.." She said.

 

[gogojojo331]

He nodded, and moved over to get some snacks and pills

 

[iMeisaki]

She patiently waited for him. She honestly didn't know how she felt. She didn't want to go to her parents but she had to but she also didn't want to endanger Leland. She stood at the doorway still waiting as her mind was racing with thoughts.

 

[gogojojo331]

"You wanna stay here instead?" He asked.

 

[iMeisaki]

She wrapped her arms around his waist and hugged him. "I can't, I have to go or else I don't get anything and I need this money.. I'm sorry for everything." She was blaming herself for everything that happened. She didn't cry but she was upset. Her head was on his chest and she closed her eyes hoping that this was a dream and not reality.

 

[gogojojo331]

"I..." He said, trying to find the words

 

[iMeisaki]

She didn't let go of him and kept her eyes closed.

 

[gogojojo331]

He was speechless....

 

[iMeisaki]

She heard his heart beating. "I love you so much Leland. I just want you to be happy and safe. But I feel like I'm messing all of that up." She started to get upset.

 

[gogojojo331]

"I...." He said losing words. "I feel the same way...."

 

[iMeisaki]

She buried her face in his chest not knowing what to say. She was afraid that he didn't know what to do or if he really felt the same about her.

 

[gogojojo331]

"I Love you.." He said

 

[iMeisaki]

She started to cry, she couldn't control her emotions anymore. She was upset that she could be hurting Leland but she felt better by what he said.

 

[gogojojo331]

He held back crying, feeling the same.
