“You what?” Will shouted.
Caitlin was taken aback by Will’s burst of anger. “When I was at Eric’s, he kissed me,” she
said meekly.
She knew that this moment was going to happen, but Caitlin didn’t
realize Will was going to fly off the handle.
After school on Tuesday, Caitlin worked up the nerve to ask Will to go
riding with her. She decided it was
best that she told him alone. Caitlin
had felt guilty when Will became excited at the idea.
“Yeah! Great. I mean, I never
get to see you anymore,” Will exclaimed and kissed her on the cheek.
“And why were you at Eric’s again?” Will asked through clenched teeth.
Caitlin looked up at Will as he glared at her. “I went to apologize for accusing him of
something. Something you did,” she
exclaimed angrily.
“What?” Will shouted, doing a double take. “Why were you apologizing for me?”
“Because you started the fight last Wednesday and I yelled at for
starting it.”
Will shook his head. “And now
you’re going to blame me for the fight?” he asked in disbelief.
“Will, Nikki saw the whole thing!” Caitlin replied in irritation. “You shoved Eric into his locker.”
Will rolled his eyes and waved his hand in the air, dismissing the
so-called testimony. “Whatever,” he
retorted. “This still doesn’t tell me
how you got from that to sucking face with the loser!”
Caitlin swallowed hard -- back to the real problem. “I…I,” she stuttered, “It just happened.”
She tried to explain it to Will, but it really wasn’t clear in her own
head what had really happened. She had
been apologizing and all of the sudden Eric was kissing her. “I’m sorry,” she offered lamely.
“Sorry doesn’t cut it,” Will spat.
Caitlin watched as he turned his back on her, his whole body tensing in
anger.
“It didn’t mean anything,” she denied.
“It just happened. I’ve told
Eric that it was a mistake.”
Caitlin walked over to Will, putting her hand on his shoulder.
Will shrugged her hand off his shoulder and turned around. His eyes were clouded and angry. “And I’m sure he believes that,” Will accused.
“I thought we were solid Caitlin.”
“We are,” Caitlin exclaimed quickly. “It was just a kiss.”
Caitlin knew it was wrong to kiss Eric, but it wasn’t like she was dating
the guy.
“I can’t talk about it,” Will grimaced. “Just…just don’t talk to me.”
Caitlin closed her eyes as Will mounted Sinbad and rode away.
What was wrong with her?
Soooo? How’s it going so far? I think this turn of events will have some pretty
drastic consequences…don’t you? ;o)
