"I'm sure you can remember.. if you take a moment to think about it," he said, bringing his head up to meet her eyes with his.

Tawni searched his face for a moment, feeling obliged to do what he asked. She thought back to that time, after they'd come in from the rain... When her lightbulb flared, she went right back to being skeptical. "Then why in the hell would..." The bar. His insane puking. As she put pieces together, her face crumpled so she let her head fall in defeat, her shoulders shaking.

He stepped towards her, wanting to comfort her, but hesitated, not sure if she would want him near her. "Everyone makes mistakes," he mumbled. "You should know that.."

Guilt.
That's what he was making her feel--guilty. But not just that, there was truth in what he said as well. "I do...we all do it..." She looked up at him and tried cracking a smile but it came out like a grimace. "I guess you're right..." she mumbled.

He took three long strides and was at the other side of the kitchen, standing in front her. "Smile for me Tawni," he whispered, his eyes watching hers. "One smile will make a hell of a difference."

She laughed quietly and was surprised to feel her face was wet. Tawni beamed at him, even though it was broken and tears were cascading down her face. "What idiot told you that?" She knew she was contradicting herself.

"The beautiful one right in front of me," he said, reaching over and carefully wiping at the tears that rolled down her cheeks.

Not giving it another thought, Tawni wrapped her arms around him, her body still shuddering as she cried.

Kyle's eyes widened in surprise as she did this. He had expected her to yell and hit him, but this was a lot easier than he had thought. Relaxing a little, he did the same, wrapping his arms around her middle and pulling her close to him. "I'm sorry Tawni," he whispered in her ear, closing his eyes tight. "More sorry than you'll ever know."

After a while, she pulled away to look up at him, searching his face and trying to read the expression there. "I am too...in advance, I guess."

He looked at her in confusion. "In advance? What could you possibly mean by that?"

Tawni shrugged, laughing a little. "I dunno...just anything I might end up doing that's really stupid on my part."

He sighed, wiping at her tear staind cheeks once more. "Then I'll apologize in advance too."

She smiled again, this time coming out like it should. "K." She looked out the window, seeing that it was still raining out there, then checked the time. "You can stay here if you don't wanna walk back, y'know."

He also smiled a little, eyes folloowing her gaze and looking out the window. "That's probably a good idea."

Tawni smirked. "Course it is, came out of my mouth, didn't it?"

"Yeah yeah," he mumbled, taking a step back and sighing heavily. "So... you forgive me.. right?"

She took a deep breath, then smiled brightly. "Yeah. I do."

He looked at her in surprise for a long moment. He had no idea it would have been so easy, he figured she would make him beg or something. "Good, very good," he sighed in relief.

Tawni had to laugh and placed both her hands on the side of his face. "Silly Kyle. It's not like you knew what you were doing, right?" She stopped talking for a moment, pausing to narrow her eyes. "Right?"

He quickly nodded in agreement. "No idea at all," he said.

"Well then, ok." She shrugged, even though the pain in her heart refused to go away. She tried not to let it show on the outside, smiling at him.

He smiled back and did the same, holding her face in his hands. "I love you Tawni," he reminded her.

"I love you too?" she responded, her tone of voice making it come out like a question.

He noticed the tone difference, but didn't waver on the outside. On the inside felt a strange anger build up, an anger towards himself. Not just that, but hurt and pain that she was no longer sure that she loved him.
And it was all his fault.
Once realising this, he couldn't stop his face from crumbling. His hands began to shake uncontroably.

Catching her tone of voice, Tawni clenched her hands into fists, cursing every possible word in her mind. She looked down for a minute, then back up to see Kyle looking crestfallen. She froze. She'd never seen him look like this--ever. Her eyes traveled to his hands, then back up to his face.
"Kyle?"

He didn't speak, didn't even look at her. Closing his eyes, he brought a shaky hand up to run it down his face; an old habbit of his when he was frusterated. He took a step awake from her and sighed heavily, letting it come out rough and uneven. "Yes?" he finally asked.

Thinking better of what she was going to say, she shook her head and grabbed her checkered blue and red hoodie, heading for the door. "Never mind", she muttered. She stepped around him and opened the door.

"Where are you going?" he asked, slowly turning to look at her.

Tawni stopped short, standing in her doorway for a second to pull the hoodie on. Once she zipped it up, she answered him truthfully. "I don't know." All she knew was there was an agonizing pain starting to form in her chest and she needed to get out. She ran out.
