I’m Sorry...

a picture of me and my old boyfriend fell out of my bag and a look of sadness and almost disappointment fell on Jacob's face. I felt horrible but I had already said that I would bandage him up, so I had to keep my promise, so I said,

"Ok so do you want to sit on those rocks over in that cave while I bandage you up."

Jacob gave me a blank stare until he muttered out,

"Sure."

Mind you this whole conversation was watched by both his mom and sister. As Jacob began to walk over to the cave Sky said,

"Um, Penny and I are going to go for a walk and look for other survivors."

You could tell that Penny didn't want to go because she came right out and shouted,

"I don't want to go I want to stay and watch Jacy try not to cry!"

To this neither Jacob nor his mother were very happy because they both gave her the be quiet look because she shut up real quick. After that Sky quickly dragged Penny away leaving Jacob and I in the cave. I decided that had to be the one to break the silence,

"So it's your left arm right?"

To this Jacob said,

"Yeah"

After a few minutes of thinking and bandaging I decided that this is going to be awkward anyway you look at, so I decided to bite the bullet.

"Are you okay? Please tell me what happened and it's not what you think it is…"

Jacob now had that look that you have when you are trying not to cry but everything inside you is saying come on just cry until he broke the silence by saying,

"Who's that in that picture?"

Why was I not surprised? I thought to myself, I let out one of those I don't really want to say it kind of sighs but finally began to let my whole story spill out,

"Well that's my whole story he left me in tears in the very cafe we got together. Not only had he lied to me about loving me and not wanting to leave me, but he had already been seeing another girl some dainty, little French girl."

Everytime I told the story I always broke down into tears of both sadness and anger two of the most opposite emotions a person can have; this time was no different, I had just finished my story in tears and was hoping Jacob wouldn't see my tears of both sadness and anger. I also would assume that he would think I was such a loser who has had one boyfriend in her life and couldn't even keep him. As I was beginning to lose myself in thought when I was interrupted by the tear filled voice of Jacob,

"I am so sorry Rayne you didn't deserve that at all. You are so pretty and smart any guy, if he was smart enough ,would kill for you. And I know y-you probably aren't into weird, cowardly guys like me but I swear I would do a-anything to prove I was worthy of being y-yours…"
