Feelings Of Growing Up

"But we're glad you came to stay Claudia at least someone has some adventure.

"I have adventure Sandra."

There was a knock on the door Sandra ran to the door and three guys in Mask ran inside soaked. Sandra closed the door saying "You guys are so dumb"

They removed the mask to reveal Sandra's boyfriend Don and Nikki's boyfriend Ron and some other guy and Don who Claudia hated the most came over to her "Three sexy babes, but anyway Claudia this is our friend Rick."

"I told you that I wasn't looking for anyone right now."

She got up and he pushed her back down where she sat and Nikki came over "Why not?

"I'm just not, I'm going to my room."

She got up again and was about to go upstairs and Don grabbed her arm roughly and she pulled from his grip as she said "Don't put your hands on me again."

"Who the hell do you think you are you think you are too go for him."

Sandra jumped in "Leave her alone okay." as Claudia said "You brought him here you do him then." He grabbed her arm again tighter than time and she pulled away and slapped him as hard as she could "Don't ever put your damn hands on me again" she yelled as she started up the stairs and her door slammed.

Don rubbed the place in which she had slapped him as he said "What the hell is her problem?"

"She has been acting that way every since she came back from Florida but don't worry about it" Sandra said as she pulled him up the stairs and Nikki did the same for her boyfriend.

Claudia hated Don she wish she would have done more than just slapped him once she got in her room. She really wished she would not have come back to California in the first place. She decided not to get back into that as she her journal and turned on some music to try and calm herself down. After a while she heard a small knock on her door and then her cousin Sandra entered and she walked over and sat on the bed next to her.

"I am sorry about what he did to you Claudia he just has a very bad temper"

"I don't care Sandra he needs to learn to keep his damn hands to himself...I should have killed him...I hate him...I should have stayed back home with..." she let her sentence trail off as Sandra placed her hand on her back.

"I know I am sorry...You have ben acting werid every since you left and came back. Is it that guy?"

Claudia looked over at her "It's not just any guy Sandra he is the man I love...I have loved him since I was 15 you know."

"Well you can't just sit her and be sad forever...it's plenty of other guys out here"

"Like Don" Claudia said still mad about the whole sitution and Sandra stood up about to walk out the room "I am sorry Sandra I did not mean it like that"

"It's okay. Call me if you need anything okay"

She nodded 'okay' as Sandra walked out the room softly closing the door behind herself.

Claudia decided it had been a very long day and decided to go to sleep. She was just about to drift off when she heard a knock on the door downstairs. It was raining out very badly and storming and like always she knew no one else would go to the door so she got up and raced downstirs. She looked out the peep hole and saw who it was she quickly opned the door and they stood there staring at each other a long while and then he said "Are you going to invite me in?"

"Um yeah" she said realizing they had been standing there staring a while as she helped him bring his bags in "Come in"

And he did so and she removed the glasses from his eyes just to make sure that it was really him and he said "You surprised to see me?"

"Yeah" she said growing a little nervous "What are you doing here?"

She started up the stairs and he followed her into her bedroom which was very colorful from what he could tell and he said "Nice room"

She sat on the bed looking at the floor and he took his jacket off and placed it in the nearby chair as she said "What are you doing here?"

"I forgot to tell you something before you left when you came home a couple of months ago"

"What! You could have told me anything you had to say over the phone you talked to me almost everyday and you could have told me that-"

Before she could finish he kissed her and she decided this time she was not going to let the chance of kissing him past her by so she kissed him back after what seemed like forever they pulled apart and he said "I forgot to tell you that I didn't want you to leave I want you to come back home so that we can be together"

"Oh really" she said turning from him as she said "Why should I come home and be with you? What made you all of a sudden want to be with me?"

"What do you mean?" he said getting pissed that she was making this harder than it was already was.

"Tell me what made you realized that you wanted to be with you?"

"Well if you must know" he said grabbed her hand "I thought about ...When you left right after you left...that day you ...that week that you-"

She laughed a little "Don't worry about it okay...you can tell me later when you get your words together and ready okay...you can tell me later" she laughed again and kissed him as she said "I am glad that you came ...I hate it here"

"What about your boyfriend and the modeling and how fun it was and all that stuff you told me."

"It doesn't matter anymore...we are together and that's all that matters now okay" he nodded 'okay' and she hugged him and kissed him again she was really happy that he decided to come back if hadn't she would have eventually anyway she thought.
