Cocky

The only sound that could be heard through out the room was the ticking of the clock, and the racing beat of my heart. Everyone was looking back and forth between Nathan and I. Some scared, others thankful that someone finally stood up to him, but all of them were surprised.

I was only staring at Nathan. I had said my piece, and I wasn't about to leave after what I just said. I insulted him in many different ways, while making very good points. So it was only fair that he have his turn. But it looked like his turn would be beating me up.

Nathan was staring at me with no longer brown eyes. Instead they were midnight black, hiding all emotion. But I didn't need to look into his eyes to know that he was pissed. His clenched fists, and tense figure said it all. The only movement that he made was wiggling his jaw side to side. His gaze was burning me alive, if looks could kill I'd be six feet under right now.

There was about three feet of space between us, which he could close in one stride if he wanted to. But he stayed where he was, and I knew that he wasn't going to respond to my rant. Not yet anyway, I mean I had taken him completely by surprise. Thinking back to his cocky act before I went off on him made me want to laugh. But instead I did something much, much worse.

I quickly grabbed my stuff, not being able to stand another minute in this room with all eyes on me. I grabbed my notebook, and threw my bag over my shoulder. Still feeling all eyes on me, I started walking towards the door. But just as I was passing Nathan, I looked up into his black eyes, and put as much concern as I could fake into my face.

"What!? No cocky smirk?" But soon after I got the words out, my face couldn't hold the fake concern any longer, and a full smile took over my face. Then with a wink, I walked out the door and didn't look back.

"Kyle I'm home!" I shouted as I slammed the door. "And your not here. Awesome." I sighed. I really wanted to tell someone about my burn on Nathan. Even though everyone probably heard about it already anyway. I still want to tell someone.

DJ! Wait I'm mad at him. "GAHH!" I screamed as I shook my fist at the sky. "Why must everyone piss me off and make me mad at them!?"

Giving up on life, I grab my fourwheeler keys and ran out the back. I was so set on wanting to race my life complications away, that I decided to leave my helmet and my phone.

I wanted to relax, and soak in the feeling of my win surrounded by nature. All by myself. I dont need to talk to DJ. I don't need to talk to anyone.

"I'm fine with being lonely." I shouted as I raced down the dirt paths. Great, now I convinced the world around me. I just need to convince myself.

I have been riding around on my track for the last two hours, and DJ hasnt shown up. This isn't like him at all. Not once since I met him, has DJ ever not raced with me. And okay, I guess I'll admit the I was hoping that I wouldn't be alone right now. I kind of was thinking that this would draw DJ to come outside without me having to call him. Seeing as how I am still a little pissed at him, I hoped this would help me not eat my words.

Now I'm laying here on our rock, getting myself all worked up again. I've been out here for hours letting off steam. I know Kyle is probably back at the house worried about where I'm at, but he can wait.

Getting up off the rocks, I hop back on my four-wheeler. One more lap won't hurt, then I'll head back and get something to eat.

Starting up my four-wheeler and racing in top hear towards the track, I can't help but feel like I'm missing something.

As fly around the track my mind seems to stay distracted. And you know what they say about clearing your head before you end up dead. Well...My head wasn't clear, and as I jumped the last triple. I hadn't been focusing on my speed, seeing as i was jumping for distance and not height. I not only jumped the triple, but I jumped completely off the track, and landed in the pond. Slamming my head on the handle bars, knocking myself out as the ATV and I both started sinking.

I know y'all it's been a while but I plan on updating another chapter here soon. Sorry for the wait.
