She had a few things to say to him. First: "You are SO stupid!" More than Kennedy, and Peyton never thought that'd be possible. "Burning the diary. What if she had other things written on it? Like, 'Don't be so stupid, Seth.' Hmm?!" She'd never destroy a seer's diary. It could give her the advantage over situations.
Peyton's fingers wrapped themselves around the necklace in her pocket unknowingly. She had soooo much to tell him. She didn't know where to begin. "And I can't believe you'd hurt John. He's...lovely. The best brother and..." The thought of him hurting both saddened and angered her. She could feel the tears threatening to spill over. She cover her eyes with her palms, shaking her head. "I can't believe you," she whispered, her arms falling at her sides, and added, "I liked you...a lot."
Her chest hurt. It wasn't like chest pains, but as if she'd been hit with a bludger on her chest. Her throat felt blocked and she couldn't find the right words to express herself. What she really wanted to do was open the window and throw Seth out of it along with his neat stuff.
Gosh. Why didn't she bring her bat with her?
Getting a hold of herself, Peyton glared up at Seth. "You're foul, you know that?" And her hand flew in the air, connecting with his cheek. She wanted to do much more than that, but something held her back. Peyton reached into her pocket and took out the necklace and let it fall to the ground.
Giving him a terribly disappointed look, instead of an angry one, Peyton turned, opened the door and left. Thor followed, hissing before exiting.
She liked him?! Really liked him?!
"I really like you too. That's why I couldn't go through with Jesuit's dark scheme, or even mine for that matter." Seth felt like what was left of his heart, was completely shattered.
It was the right thing to do. Telling the truth.
Seth rubbed his cheek that was now red and had Peyton's tiny hand printed on it. His tears spilled down like a waterfall.
"I'm sorry" He whispered.
Watching her leave was awful, seeing the disappointment in her face was the worst.
Punching the door, he let out a tiny bit of his frustrations. But right now he was so devastated he really wanted to do some damage on anyone! He was better off alone...after all he's always been alone. Now with more reason.
