Synopsis:
It was complicated, it was
also just the beginning.
A decision.
A simple choice.
There is always that one
moment in life where things could have been different. That one moment where you
could have chosen a path that would lead you down a certain road.
A different life.
It was easier to pretend that
we were still best friends, and that she was my girl and I was her boy.
Pretending was better than
knowing the truth...
I. Ruined. Us.
I had her.
I lost her.
I love her.
All I did was complicate us.
Excerpt:
I just couldn’t stay mad at him.
He made it absolutely impossible for me not to laugh and he knew
it, too. Which only made it worse. It was like adding fuel to the fire, making
it bigger and wider with each flare of gasoline. When I saw that he didn’t turn
down my street and kept riding in the direction of our abandoned house, I
smiled.
There was no helping that either.
The times that he chose to be with me over the boys warmed my
heart, especially when he preferred me to surfing.
We parked our bikes behind the house and ran up the stairs. Over
the last few months we had turned it into our own little paradise, bringing
blankets and pillows to throw on the floor, candles for when it got dark, and
sometimes Lucas would even bring in wood from outside to turn on the fireplace.
We had magazines, board games, snacks and water. Everything we needed was
there.
I loved it.
He handed me a bottled water to drink and then I passed it back
to him so he could, too. I laid down on the blankets and pillows and beheld the
vaulted ceilings with a content sigh.
“Whatcha’ thinkin’ about over there?” he questioned, sitting
down facing me.
“How much I love this place.”
“Good.”
“I want to get married here.”
“What?” he chuckled.
“You heard me. I want to have my engagement party here and I
want to get married here. And then I want to buy this house and raise a family
here,” I firmly stated.
“Aren’t you a little young to think about stuff like that?”
“No. I think about stuff like that all the time.”
“Oh yeah?”
“Mmm hmm…”
“Who you marrying?”
I immediately held his amused gaze. “What?” It was my turn to
say.
“You heard me,” he replied, throwing my own words back at me.
“Who you marrying?”
“Oh…” I breathed out. “I don’t know.”
He raised his eyebrow but didn’t call me out on my lie. “Don’t
you think that maybe you should experience things first?”
“How do you know I haven’t?” I provoked, wanting to wipe the
smug look off his face.
“Because I know.”
“Whatever.” I looked away.
“You want to know how I know?”
I kept my stare on the tray ceilings, swallowing the saliva that
had pooled in my mouth, and hoping that it would calm the fluttering feeling I
had suddenly formed in my belly. I shrugged because I couldn’t speak; it would
giveaway how I felt.
“I know because I would remember it, just like I remember our
first experience. The same one that’s hanging around your neck.”
My heart pounded with each word that fell from his mouth.
“Do you want me to?”
“Do I want you to what?” I replied, already knowing what he
meant but needing to hear him say it.
“Do you want me to kiss you?” He paused to let his words sink
in. “Really kiss you?”
My mouth parted and my chest rose and descended with each breath
I took. I found myself nodding before I gave it anymore thought, ignoring the
voice in the back of my mind that screamed at me that this was a bad idea. He
bent forward and rested on his hands and knees, his face, his lips, coming
toward me and making me tightly shut my eyes.
Waiting.
A million thoughts went through my head, but the moment I felt
his lips on mine they were all gone in an instant…
Nothing else mattered at that moment.
