Suprise Catalina attn: Renton

[Catalina Corinthos]

Catalina was meeting Renton outside of the school. She was not sure if he wanted to drive or if she should follow him in her own car. She had dropped her books off and only kept the ones she would need that night. She had said good bye earlier to Colby. She glanced down at her ring and could not stop the smile from spreading across her face. She was just so happy, she had no idea she ever could be this happy.

Sitting on the bench she put her books next to her and then put on sunglasses as she waited for Renton to come outside. She checked her phone to see if she had any messages and did not. She was so lost in thought she did not see him come out at first and she gave him a smile when she noticed him over her. "Hey sorry was a bit loust in thought" she said with a laugh and a a smile.

"I remembered you wanted to show me a suprise" she said standing upa nd getting her books. "I did not know if you wanted me to ride with you or if it would be easier if I drove my own car and followed you. What do you think?" she asked him. She was very curious of what he wanted to show her becaue she genuinly had no idea what it could be.

Renton smiled when he saw Cat waiting on the bench for him. He took a deep breath and sighed. She looked beautiful in the afternoon sun. She was glowing and Renton couldn't get over how that is so, but he was happy to see such a beautiful thing. He then walked over to her and then stands over her. "Hey Cat!" he said with a smile.

Renton stood there listening to her, and then smiled wide and chuckled a bit. "Actually I thought maybe you would like to go for a ride in it!" he said, he then offered his hand to Cat. "Come on its in the parking lot!" he said. He gently took her hand into his and lead her to the parking lot, and there you can see this fully restored 1954 Jaguar XK120. It was black on the out and red on the in. The car was cared for very well and it looked like it just came off the show floor of car dealer ship.

"Well what do you think?" he asked. "you like it?" He turned to her and then smiled. "So you still wanna go for a ride?" He asked as he then open the door for her and waited for her to answer.

Catalina let him lead her to the parking lot. When she saw the car she gasped and smiled at him. "Renton it is beautiful" she said to him with a smile on her face. "You did this yourself?" she asked him. She has never known anyone that has fully restored a car themselves before. "I can tell you put so much love and hardwork in it" she told him honestly as she turned to face him again. "I think I just met your true love here" she said to him teasingly.

When she opened the door she looked at the interior up close. It all looked so good, he was definatly good with cars. "I would love to go for a ride" she said. She was sure Colby would love this car if he ever saw it. And then well forget any conversation between the guys other then about the car. Just thinking of it made her laugh to herself. "Where are we going to drive to?" she asked him. She was stlll amazed he did this himself so much hard work and dedication went into this project which was so clear. And the smile on his face said how much he loved his car, it is good to see him have a passion, a plan, come to fruitation. "How long have you been working on it? A year right? It seems like you had to work on it costantly which shows how much it is your passion."

Renton smiled, he opened the door for her and help her into the car. "you'll see!" he said with that charming smile of his. He then toss his book back into the trunk of the car and jumps into the driver seat and started up the car. The car purred like a kitten, and he took off out of the parking lot with Cat next to him.

20 to 30 minutes later they arrived at a quiet abandon beach area. The waves crashing and the seagulls and birds chirping trying to fight for their hunger. And The sun half way from the harizon. Renton parked the car by a small building that is no longer in used. He then gotten out and came around Cat's side and helped her out. He gently took her hand into his and lead her with him for a small walk. "Listen Cat, there's something or should I say theres a lot of things I want to tell you!" he said gently as they took a stroll towards the beach for a while.

"Since I met you, yes I admit when I first saw you I thought you were hot and sexy and sweet looking person, but then when I saw you the second time, I realized there was something else about you. Fear, loneliness... and broken!" he said quietly as he softly squeezed her hand into his to show her that he cared. "But once I finally manage to have you alone to find out what was going on, I saw so many quailties and beautiful things through your fear...!" He contuied. "Then for a while even though you were still trying to move on with your live and put away the past, I started to notice you were becoming more and more stonger, beautiful and you always so smart!" he said as he admire that so much about her.

Later it started to get dark, he walked her back to the car and before letting her in, he turned her to face him letting her back rest against the car. "Cat... since we've became friends, and stuff I started to fall deeply in to you!" he said taking a deep breath. "then when Colby came back into your life, I felt lost and as if I never had you at all, which" he chuckled a bit. "Of course I never had you who am I kidding heh." he said and then takes a deep breath and exhale. "Every time I see you, you light up my world and I can't live with you. if I can't have you more than a friend then I rather have you as a friend than nothing at all in my life. I will always be there when ever you need me Cat for anything at all!" he whispers as he leaned his forehead against hers. Took both her hands into his gently and raised them up to his lips and kissed both hands.

"Forgive me Cat, but I can't hold it any longer, I have fallen deeply in love with you in a short time, and I might never forgive myself for this... " Renton stopped for a minute thinking trying to figure out his next move, will it be right or wrong and regretful. His mind was screaming in his head. ( "Just do it already just do it kiss her damn it! whats the worse going to happen get hit?" ) Renton closed his eyes trying to shut the screaming in his mind. ( "Kiss her! Kiss her!! Kiss her damn it!!" ) Renton looks deep with in Cat's eyes. ("You moron KISS HER!!!") finally Renton finally gave up ignoring his screaming thoughts, and takes a deep breath. "Forgive me...!" he gently said as he then leaned and kissed her deeply but gently with out giving her time to say anything. His right hand cradly and caress her cheek as he deepens the kiss passonately. his left hand around her waist and pulled her gently into the kiss. After along moment of that passonate deep kiss he gave her he then broke free and stood there waiting for her response. He wasn't sure what will happen next. will she slap him and hate him. will she embrace another kiss. what.

Cat listened to Renton the whole time and it hurt her to hear this. If she was not with Colby she would of ended up with him but she loved Colby and only Colby. When he kissed her she was very suprised, it was like she was frozen and she could not even move a muscle. She blinked when he pulled back and she felt tears flood her eyes. "Oh Renton" she said softly and looked down. When she looked back up at him she knew pain filled her eyes. "I had a feeling you cared for me that way" she said. She slipped out from under his arms and wrapped her arms around herself, it was suddnely cold.

What she had to say next she knew would break his heart. "Renton I am in love with Colby. He.. he asked me to marry him after everything that happened with Quenten. I said yes and we are going to married soon, like this year soon" she said to him. Holding up her hand so he could see the ring and know she was not just making up some excuse to tell him no or hurt him on purpose. "I am sorry Renton if it was not for Colby I would be with you but with him in my life I can't I am sorry. I love you as a friend and a friend only" she said. A few tears slipped down her cheeks unbiden, and against her will, she did not want to cry right now.

When he was silent she looked at him not saying a word. Then she finally spoke again. "I am sorry Renton" she said again just as softly. "I never wanted to hurt you but I can't lie to you about my feelings for you and for Colby. Please still say we can be friends?" she asked pleadingly. When he did speak she swallowed hard, "I will give you a minute" she said before walking over to a rock and sitting down.

Renton stood there quietly as he now stared at the spot where Cat was standing before him and no longer there, she left him for a few minutes to let the news sink in. He felt his heart ripped from his chest and it was gone. Renton slightly moved slowly against his car for support as if his lungs gave out. Now he realized he had made the biggest mistake of his life. He should've not said anything at all about how he felt and what he just did. He took a deep breath and exhale, he should've just showed Cat the car and end it there.

But Renton did say he wanted her as friend than nothing at all, he made that promise and broken it. Now he felt more like a dipshit than ever. Renton is the kind of guy no matter how much pain your in he never cries, but this pain it nearly made a bit of tears sneaked from his eyes and trickled down his cheeks. When he suddenly felt the streak of downs he quickly wiped them away before they left of some sort of stains. he sniffed and then started to breath and getting it together, getting a grip of things now. He then glared at the air. He was now angery. Not to Cat, not to Colby, but Quenten for one reason it wasn't for Quenten in Cat's life at all, he took Colby away from Cat after he raped her. he cause Colby to leave her. But he was also angry with himself. For letting him fall for Cat, for thinking he may had a chance to be in Cat's life more than friends, but he was wrong.

Finally when he got a grip of himself he then turned to see Cat and then saw her texting, Renton closed his eyes feeling more ashamed. He figured she must be texting Colby right now telling him what just happened. Go figure he sighed he deserved it to get his ass kicked to a bloody plup. Renton looked down at the sand, as he dugged his hands into the pocket of his jeans. He then walked over as he kept his gazed at the beach. As he stood by the rock that Cat sat on. "Look um... I'm sorry for my actions, I was an idoit and I should have not done what I just did. Listen I'm happy for you both and I hope you have a wonderful life together. You two derserved the best and happiness. I'm happy it's Colby and not...." he slowly stopped as he trailed off.

"Anyway's Colby is a great and lucky guy. Acutally no not lucky... very blessed!" Renton meant it. "I made a promise Cat, no matter what we will always be friends, and I'll always be there for you when ever you need me!" Renton said keeping it together and not letting his voice crack. "I love you too... as a friend." He said finally accepting the reality and the fact that their friendship is more important than any other kind of relationships out there. "Ah, I wish you both the very best and I hope the wedding is very beautiful. I wish i could be there to see you two finally become one!" he said quietly in a whisper and he meant it as well. He then took a deep breath and exhale. He figured now that Cat has texted Colby he was on his way to get Cat and Renton should leave before he makes the situtation worse than it is now.

"I guess Colby is coming to get ya, so I guess I'll leave you now. Listen, I understand what I have done and I'm sorry and I promise it will never happen again. In fact if you never want me around or see me again I understand completely I'll stay away if you wished!" Renton gave his word of honor as a friend. "Well I guess I'll be seeing you around or when things have settled down and stuff!" he said gently. He didn't bother to touch her he didnt want to make things worse so he turned away slowly and started to walk back to his car. This time he didnt jump into the car like he usually does, he got in normal way and started up the car and the car sadly purred but not as good as it did earlier.

Soon he pulled away from the lot leaving Cat on the rock, he didnt want to leave her there alone but he couldn't face Colby right now. It wasn't the time, or place. Soon Renton and his car was silently gone as if he was never there in the first place. After a while Renton was on the road heading back to his apt. As he drove through the long way. Tears began to streak down his cheeks quietly as he drove home. He then finally got home he drove the car into the garage and closed the door behind. He walked into his empty quietly apt. He didn't bother to turn on the lights, he just came through the kitchen and took off his jacket and let it drop to the floor with out any kind of emotions. As he walks passed through the kitchen he maked a short stop at one of the cabinets, he opened it and grabbed for a glass. Then he reached further into the cabinet and tapped on the back as it was hallow and then slightly felt for a hole, he put the finger in and pulled it out and it revealed, a large bottle of vodka. He pulled it out and looked at it for a moment and realized it was his best friend right now.

He takes the bottle and glass with him as he slowly dragged himself to the couch, he sat down and sat the glass onto the small coffee table in front of him. He popped the cap off from the bottle and started to poor himself a healthy serving of vodka and from then on he started to drink all night, to the point to where he was numb and started to feel he was no longer there just a shell filling up on poison.
