(62) Who's At The Door?

I love your guys' reactions to Daniel and Sharon. XD Just to torment y'all, this is a short chapter! :P And remember, these last chapters are going to be single updates! X)

Chapter 62

Three o’clock came and went and I sat on the couch, waiting for Caleb to get here. He was a senior, and he had gotten his licence as soon as he had turned old enough. He had a job and he bought himself a car.

So, it wouldn’t take much longer until he got here.

Just as I thought that, there was a knock on the door. I got up and ran to the door and flung it open with a smile.

That smile faded as soon as I laid eyes on the person in front of me.

“D-D-Daniel!” I squeaked.

He looked grim as he stared at me. “Desiree, what you saw-”

“No! Leave!” I said quickly. I didn’t want him to see me weak.

“Dez-”

“Go!” I pointed the opposite way.

“It’s not what you say Desiree! Come on, if you think about it, how many times did I call her a bitch?” He stressed. He looked genuinely serious.

But I couldn’t believe him. Not after what I saw.

“Desiree? Who’s at the door?” Daddy’s voice sounded from down the hall.

“Get out of here Daniel. Our cover is blown. We’re no longer acting like we’re togeth-”

“Desiree! I want us to be real-”

“GO AWAY!” I yelled.

“Desiree!” He pleaded. He looked like he was about to cry. Suddenly, his arm snaked around my waist and pulled me into a bone-crushing embrace. “Desiree. Desiree!” He chanted my name passionately next to my ear.

Within his warm arms, I found myself overwhelmed with my feelings for him. The love and anger mixed together inside made me stiff. I wanted to push him away, but at the same time, I didn’t.

Come on Dez, he was with you ex best friend. And you still want to be in his arms? How pathetic. My practical mind spat at me.

Even as the tears fell down my face, I pushed him away. “Go ... away.” I said, hiding my face in my hands.

I didn’t look up, but after a short pause, I could hear him walk away. And once I heard them fade away, my legs fell from under me and I crumpled to the floor with a huge sob.

“Desiree!” Daddy exclaimed as he came into the living room and saw me.

“Dez?Was that Dan...” I heard a completely different male voice say, but when I looked up through blurred eyes, his sentence trailed off. Even as I looked at Caleb, I couldn’t control the sobs that wracked my body, nor the huge hot tears that fell from my eyes like rain.

“Desiree, what? Who was that other guy?” Daddy’s question only made me cry harder. Why? Why did he have to be with Sharon?

I threw myself into Daddy’s arms and sobbed. “I love him Daddy. I really really love him!”

~~~

So...who do you want Desiree to be with?

a. Daniel?

b. Robin?

c. Caleb?

I already know most of you guys want DD(Dez+Dan) I was wondering if there was someone out there who want her to get with someone else.
