You'd Think You'd Understand.. (A Princeton Story)

::She's Just Stubborn::

::Ellanae's P.O.V::

We just sat there in complete silence till my cries got softer.

“You okay?” He asked, 

I nodded my head,

“You sure?”

I nodded my head again.

“Okay, I’ll leave it alone if you don’t want to talk about it.”

I slightly smiled to myself and sighed.

Why couldn’t ray be this understanding?

I just lay in his arms for a while longer,

I felt..

Comfortable.

::Jacob’s P.O.V::

Ellanae seemed to calm down as I rocked her.

I don’t know why I pulled her into a hug, but she needed one.

I still want to know why she’s crying, but I’m enjoying the feeling or her in my arms.

I’m the one that caused her almost all the pain she’s going through,

Her in my arms, I feel like nobody can hurt her.

Eventually, her cries got softer and we just lay there.

She wiped her eyes a couple more times and got up.

“Sorry,” She said looking down.

“It’s okay, you good now?”

She nodded her head.

We got into work right after.

I did manage to get a smile out of her after what seemed to be hours.

I checked my phone, 5:34pm.

“Uh, what time is it?” She asked, 

“Its after half past five,”

“Oh, I gotta get home…”

“Oh, okay.”

 I watched as she packed up her things.

When she was done she got up and slung her bag over her shoulder.

She looked down at me and smiled.

“I’ll see you tomorrow, same time,”

“Yeah,”

“Bye Jacob.” She smiled

“Bye Ellanae.” I smiled back.

She gave me one last smile before she walked out my room.

I smiled to myself and picked up the remote.

I was about to turn the TV on when she ran back in my room and gave me a hug and kissed me on my cheek.

“Thank you,” she whispered in my ear,

My mind was completely fuzzed right now and I opened my mouth to say something but no words came out.

I couldn't find the right words to say so I just nodded my head.

She giggled at my facial expression and waved at me again then walked out.

I lay back and smiled to myself

“Didn’t expect that did you?”

I jumped and almost bounced my head back on the wall.

“What the hell Carrie?!”
