Last episode, Rebecca fell asleep in Kevin's arms. Kevin was suspicous about the crying. Now, continuing the story...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Rebecca's POV)
My eyes slowly opened but I mostly saw darkness. Was it still nighttime? I saw a light shining through the very bottom of a window. Where was I? I sat up to look around but didn't recognize any of the furniture in the room. Suddenly, last night came into my head. Everything from the dream to Kevin's reassuring words. I was in Kevin's room so where was Kevin?
I didn't notice the sound of running water until it stopped. Possibly the shower. I heard a curtain open and faint footsteps coming from a door that I assumed led to the bathroom. I heard someone walk around and the door opened to reveal a fully dressed Kevin with semi-wet hair.
He saw me and quickly walked over to sit next to me and grabbed my hands. "Are you okay?" he asked worriedly. He lifted his hand and touched my face. I just sat there in complete shock and felt my cheeks burn under his warm touch. He caught himself and quickly dropped his hand, clearly embarrassed. He went back to simply holding my hands.
"Um... yeah. I'm fine." I quietly said after a few seconds of awkward silence. "I didn't think you'd wake up this early. Maybe you should sleep some more," Kevin suggested. "Why? How late is it?" I asked. "Um... 7:42." "That's not that early. Although I do feel pretty tired."
"I can imagine that. Especially after all the crying." Unlike last night, his words hurt. It sounded like I was weak or something. I looked down and felt the tears form in my eyes. Not only from his words but also because of the dream. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean for it to come out like that. I just- I meant that-" He sighed. "It's alright," I said in a terrible, cracking voice.
We were silent until Kevin blurted out, "I feel like such an idiot." I looked up and wiped away the tears that still had not fallen. "No, it's okay." Another eternal silence. "Hey Rebecca, that suitcase that you had yesterday... is that all your clothes?" Ugh. It's like he was psychic or something. "Uh, yeah it is. I really need to go to a mall or something cause I only have like five outfits."
We both laughed. "So how about we go to the mall? Saturday's the best day to go," Kevin informed me. I giggled and said, "Sure. Let me just go back to my room and change." "Yeah of course." I got out of the bed and saw him smile, looking me up and down. "What?" I asked. I looked down and saw my clothes. I was still only in short shorts and a tank top. My cheeks went red in half a second. I was so embarrassed! Especially in front of Kevin!
"Oh my gosh. How embarrassing!" I said out loud. I heard him laugh. "I think you look really cute," Kevin told me. I blushed even more. Kevin thought I looked cute! Scratch that, really cute! "I better go before everyone sees me in this outfit," I shyly said. "Don't worry. It's Saturday morning. Everyone's probably still asleep. Just come back here when you're ready." I nodded and ran out the door.
I ran through the hallways to the stairs, being careful not to run into anybody. I hurriedly opened my room door and closed it. Safe! I grabbed some jeans and a top and went to go change in the bathroom. I looked in the mirror and practically screamed. I looked hideous! How could Kevin think I look cute?! I changed, did my make-up, and straightened my hair.
I looked into the mirror again and still felt like I could use some improvement. "This is as good as I'll ever get," I whispered to myself. I grabbed my purse and walked out of my dorm. I ran to the stairs and flung the door open, making contact with someone's face on the other side. Papers flew into the air and a body rolled down the stairs, stopping at the little platform. It was a guy.
I immediately ran to him and got down next to him. "I am so sorry. I didn't mean to hit you," I said. "Well maybe next time, you should--" He looked up and stopped his angry rant. He was staring at me, just like Kevin did. "Never mind. It's okay," he said, as if he were hypnotized. What was with this guy? I mean, he was really cute and all, but what's up with the staring?
"Oh, well, let me get you your papers." I stood up and started to retrieve them. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw him quickly recover and help me pick up his papers. "By the way, I'm Xander Matthews." (AN: the X sounds like a Z. it's like 'Zander.')I grinned. "Rebecca Turner," I responded. When we had picked them all up, I said, "Well, that's all of them. Sorry about that. Bye." I ran past him and down the stairs. I heard him yell "Bye" from above me.
