I pulled up outside Ariana's house, all the lights were off. I ran out and threw the door open. My heart was beating loudly in my ears. I felt as though life itself was standing still, nothing else mattered but Ariana. I could hear shuffling from up in her room. I began to walk up the stairs noticing that Jenny hadn't followed me. I didn't bother to question why. Without any more hesitation I walked into Ariana's room. She sat in the corner her knees pulled to her best. I fell down beside her and brushed a hair from her face.
"Ariana sweetie what's wrong?" She sat there quietly not answering me, "Ariana." I said her name again more softly. She once again ignored me. I sat there silently for what seemed like hours. I moved to sit across from her leaning against her bed frame. The time seemed to fly by slowly.
"Kelsey ended it..." Her voice was barley a whisper. If it weren't for the silence I never would have heard her. Her voice was broken and raspy the sadness evident. I didn't know what to say because truthfully, there was no words I could say. I couldn't make the sadness and pain stop there were no magic words to was it all away. Instead I sat there silently looking at her. She looked up her beautiful brown eyes filled with pain and sadness. A piece of hair fell in her face. I reached out my hand and brushed it away. She closed her eyes slowly as my hand traced her cheek. I slowly moved in closer , she brought her knees down. I moved my body to the space between her legs. Gently I grabbed her chin and brought her lips to mine. I paused briefly waiting for her to pull away or tell me to fuck off. She didnt, I felt her warm breath against my lips. My lips crashed into hers. Her arms wrapped around my neck pulling me in closer. I knew it was wrong I never should have kissed her but I didn't know what else to do, I hated watching her be sad. I guess in the moment kissing her seemed so right. It felt so right. I ran my hand through her hair deepening the kiss. This was all that mattered at the moment. Everything else in the world just faded away time itself seemed to stand still. I pulled away reluctantly.
"Sorry,.." I muttered looking down. Ariana smiled at me softly while pulling my face up to meet hers.
"Don't apologize for something you wanted and got." I pulled her in for a hug. We sat there for a bit before there was a light knocking on the door. We both turned to see Jenny standing there. She was wearing a oversized hoodie and sweats, she must have gone home and changed. She was holding a bag of stuff in one of her hands. She held it up and smiled at us.
"Movie night? All nighter?" Ariana chuckled. I couldn't help but smile I knew she was still hurting but hearing her laugh made me feel a bit better about it all. I stood up holding a hand out for Ariana. She grabbed it and we followed Jenny down the stairs into the kitchen. Jenny began emptying the bag. It was filled with junk foods of all sorts including a tub of ice cream and a bunch of different mindless movies. We all squeezed onto the couch and began watching a movie.
Halfway through the third movie Jenny had dosed off to sleep. I noticed Ariana was still very off. It pained me to know that she was hurting and there wasn't a single goddaamn thing I could do to stop this pain or to stop the sadness she was feeling. I know most people wouldn't understand the way I act with Ariana. No one could ever understand how I feel for her how much I ached to make her happy how much I wish I could stop all the pain and hurt. A thought crossed my mind, it wasn't going to fix the sadness forever but it would for a bit even just briefly. I grabbed Ariana's phone and wrote down a number. Going into the next room I dialled the number. The person on the other end was slightly confused but didn't question me. Within seconds the house was filling with people but not your average everyday people you'd expect in your house at ten at night.
