Snippet #2492245

Jessica cringed in pain as she stayed there, feeling the pressure slowly rise off of her but quickly return, causing her eyes to open when she felt a wet, warm towel press to her nose. Boy, she felt bad. She’d been acting so childish and even hurt Darrin; but she couldn’t just let these thoughts run rampant. Perhaps she’ll go out tonight with some friends and talk to them about it.
"What was that about? You are really starting to make me think you're out to get me."
She only looked at him, giving him a nervous smile and half laugh to match his before he left once more. Jessica hugged her knees a little, feeling the pang of guilt for how she was acting- of course, this was going hand in hand with whatever thoughts still lingered. She gave a tired sigh before Darrin returned, startling her a little bit when he took her hand.
"You still haven't told me.."

His voice caused Jess to look over at him, his facial expressing not helping his conflicting feelings. With a sigh, Jessica pulled her hand away from his, placing it upon the not bruised spot on her forehead.
“I’m sorry,” She began, not wanting to show her face as she buried it into her knees. “I don’t mean to be acting weird- it’s just I have a lot of…” Her voice trailed off, looking up at him as if he was the source of the problem- which in terms, he kind of was. “Conflicting emotions…” She chose her words carefully, forming them with her tongue before actually saying them.
Jessica quickly looked at him thought before putting her hands up. “It isn’t your fault; it’s my fault for not controlling my hor- thoughts, yeah, my thoughts.” She quickly caught herself before leaning back slightly, looking at him with a vague smile.
