Chapter 12
I walked to Molly and Katie's room and plopped on the bed. I sighed and wondered why my life was filled with hurt, pain, and love. I was used to the hurt and pain but I was still getting used to love. I just lay in bed for 10 minutes and finally get up. I go to the swimming pool room and just sit there as I watch the blue lights hit the chlorine filled water. I sigh again. I stuck my feet in the hot tub and just day dreamed. I don't remember what I dreamt about but I know that I was happy. I heard my name and came back to cold hearted reality. Kadin was walking towards me smiling and waving. I smiled and waved back and once he reached me he sat down next to me and stuck his feet in the hot tub as well.
"How come you didn't come outside?" He said and I looked away.
"It was too cold" I said lying to him.
"...Liv?.... Are you ok?" he asked trying to look in my eyes.
I moved so he couldn't see my face. He's a very sweet person but I don't know if he'll be able to understand my hurt and anger. Love really is the most hurtful thing I've felt even everything from my past wasn't as harsh as love. I longed to tell Kadin how I felt but I don't want to hurt him or myself. He's like water, soothing and calm and I'm like fire, deadly, fierce, and full of hatred. Even though he calmed me and helped me, I could really hurt him without meaning to. I don't want him to get burned.
I still didn't answer him and I could tell he was hurt. My heart broke to pieces as I shut him out.
"......just what's been going on lately" I lied well sorta.
I did mean it but I was more trying to hide away from Kadin. He's already seen a side of me that I never wanted to show him. He heard and saw me fighting with Jessica and I know that now he knows that I can be dangerous at times. I've tried to hide it because I don't want to end up like my parents. Those awful people who raised me and gave me scars and bruises both mentally and physically. I sighed and looked down.
He put his hand over me and pulled me closer. Since there was a gap between us when he tried to pull me closer and I ended up laying my head on his lap. He messed with my hair a bit and twirled it with his fingers. I smiled as I watched the water bubble from the gushers.
"thanks" I whisper.
"for what?" he said now letting go of my hair and bending over to look at me.
"for being here for me and for being you" I said looking at him.
"you know what makes me a good friend?" he asked me.
"because you know how to make people feel better?" I guessed.
"Nope....because I know how to get people to cool off" he said.
I got confused for a second and looked at him. He just smiled at me.
"Kadin. Don't You Dare!" I told him starting to move away from him but it was too late.
He pushed me into the hot tub and when I came back up he just smiled at me. I grabbed his arm and pulled him in too. He resurfaced and wiped his eyes. Once he was able to see again we just laughed at each other. We splashed each other with the water and smiled. He then got out and grabbed towels after a while of us fooling around. He helped me out and handed me a towel and we dried ourselves as best as we could. We were freezing now as we stood there still wet with our normal clothes on. My teeth chattered and we headed back to the hallways with all the rooms.
"Hey Liv do you wanna just hang out in my room?" Kadin asked and I nodded.
When we walked inside the room Allen and Katie weren't there so I guessed that they were going to dinner. Kadin stood by the bed and I grabbed the thing I had left in here before.
"Here. I forgot to give it back and if I didn't give it back soon it might get "lost" in my closet." I said and he knew what I meant.
He took it and setted it on the bed. We both were still wet and I didn't know why I didn't go and get changed before I came in here. Kadin grabbed some clothes from one of his suitcases.
"..uh.. Ima change in the bathroom.." he said as he went in and closed the door.
"ok.. ima get my clothes from Kate's room and change there and I'll be right back." I said and left his room.
I got changed and grabbed my phone from by the TV and slipped it into my black sweat pant pockets. I'm glad I didn't have it when Kadin threw me into the hot tub. I smiled. He really did know how to cool people down and calm them. I laughed to myself and headed to Kadin's room again. I opened the door and he was sitting on his bed on his phone. I sat next to him and plopped down backwards. He smiled at me, looking up from his phone and setting it on the little desk by the bed. He then plopped down like I did and we laughed.
We stared at each other for a moment and I felt myself getting butterflies in my stomach. His phone buzzed and He sat up again. My phone went buzz as well and we both checked our phones. Katie texted me and said that her and Allen were already at dinner at a restaurant down the street if anyone wanted to join. I guessed that Kadin also got the same invite. Katie texted me the location. I recognized the name of the restaurant.
"Ooh I heard that they have amazing chicken wings" I said remembering when I would only ever go to that restaurant before I met Katie.
"Who told you that?" Kadin asked looking over at me.
"My stomach and that's a very good source" I said and he smiled.
"Ok then let's go" he said getting up and pulling his sweater over his short sleeve shirt.
We walked out of the room and we headed to Katie's room so I could grab a sweater as well. I grabbed my usual big blue hoodie and I slipped it over my head. Kadin was standing in front of the door waiting for me. I tripped over my own foot and tripped into him. We just stood there for a moment as I was leaning so close to him as he stared into my eyes. We leaned our heads a little closer and I could feel butterflies again.
"How come you didn't come outside?" He said and I looked away.
