Narrator's pov

"You're kidding me" Fallon scoffed

"No sir, I wish I was" Ember shrugged

"What the fuck"

"I know-"

"How the fuck!"

"I know-"

"I'm going to get a knife and a fork and feed this bitch to a cult" Fallon narrowed his eyes, making the girl chuckle

Ember placed her hand on the coffee shop door, pushing it wide open for Fallon to enter first

"That's a little far, don't you think?"

"Girly really out here with a man and making out with you in a park. I think that's too far" Fallon explained

Ember knew the boy was right, there were questions she had that needed answers but the thought of those answers pierced a knife into her heart. The truth was needed but the truth would hurt

She had no clue what happened yesterday in the park. One second her lips were touching hers then the next there was a man saying he belonged to the girl she was crushing on

Don't even get started on that kiss. She had only experienced that feeling once in her lifetime and that was only yesterday. There was never a time when she had kissed someone and felt butterflies take over her system at such an intense state that it made her lose all control of her body

And those lips. God those lips she couldn't keep her eyes off, tasted exactly as she expected. Such softness to her, like a hug from a cloud. The feeling in her stomach made her feel like she had fallen off that cloud and was tumbling down to earth with nothing but her smile, yet she felt safe in that moment

Because she knew she was wanted

How could one experience such a kiss that left her breathless, then experience such pain ten seconds later?

Even rejection would have been better, but to find out that the person she was falling for had a boyfriend was just too painful

But she didn't show it. Her smile was as fake as my reasons to be alive but she kept herself together

Something she was trained to do at a young age. As doctors, her parents thought her how to limit her emotions and control them so people couldn't pick her apart. Maybe they thought they were grooming her to be a doctor, but they left her broken in ways they wouldn't know

Now she went on with her life with pain inside and a smile on her face that no one would know was actually a crumbling person, ready to fall apart at the slightest touch

"I can't explain it. It was just-"

"Just nothing. Don't make excuses for anyone Ember" Fallon mumbled, sliding his hands into his pockets to lift his wallet

"I'm not, I'm just sayi-"

"Nuh uh hunny, that's what we not finna do. Stop. Making. Excuses. People hurt you and you always try to rationalize their actions" Falling said, pulling out a few bills and placing it on the counter

"Two milk coffees please" He smiled, The girl couldn't help but raise a brow at the boy

"What?" he chuckled

"Look at you, spending money on me"

"You deserve to be spoiled" He smiled

"Oh lucky me, daddy's buying me a three dollar coffee, I wonder what I could do to repay him" Ember pouted slightly making the boy laugh
