Luv Me!

The Confession

Later we found that night and a cooler weather surrounded us when we dragged ourselves out of the ocean and onto the sand. We laid there on the sand and looked up to the waning moon.

"The moon is so beautiful." I exclaimed.

"You're beautiful." Hector corrected me with that ever so sweet smile, pushing my curly hair from my forehead.

"No." I recorrected him. "You're beautiful."

"Drew, do you love me?" He asked. He looked into my eyes and waited for an answer.

I didn't know what to say. We just hung out one day, today. Ok so I always said how much I "love" Jay Park, and C.A.P, and Ryan Potter, and Key, and Minho and everyone I've ever said I did. But that "love" is different. I haven't even met them. What was I suppose to say? I didn't want to say I didn't. He looked at me wanting me to say yes. He NEEDED me to say yes. And I kind of did love him as much as I crushed on him and hung out with him today. How could I say no?

"Hector," I started and his eyes lit up to his name. "I--" I raised my hand up to feel his chest under my palm, to feel his heart beat while I said it, but suddenly a hand grabbed my wrist.

"Get up!"

I was pulled from off the floor and dragged away from Hector, who jumped up angrily.

"Hey!" He called.

Whoever was holding my wrist was wearing a hood so I couldn't see who was dragging me, but I was scared. Hector caught up to us and pulled the guys hand from my wrist which kinda hurt but, when free, I dove into the safety of Hector's chest and arms. This hooded guy turned around and pulled the hood off.

"Kai?" I asked with a bit of disgust.

"Let him go!" He demanded and pulled me away from him again, pushing my Hector into the sand

I tugged trying to break away from him but he held onto me and the sand made it easier for him to drag me to the street next to a surf shop.

"Kai! Let go, you're hurting me!" I yelled.

He jerked me and slammed me into the wall so I was facing him while he pinned me to it.

"I thought you liked ME!" he yelled back. I could see tears in his eyes and his voice sounded hoarse like it does when you've been crying for a while. His eyes were red and puffy too.

"What?" I looked over at Hector. He was bounding towards us like an angry bull. "Who told you that?" I asked nervously, not wanting to tell him the whole truth of how I felt about him in front of Hector.

Hector grabbed Kai by the shoulder, pulled him away, and socked him in the face. I gasped when he fell to the ground on his elbows. He sat up along his spine on the ground with fresh blood puring down from his nose and bust in his lower lip. The blood mixed with tears that ran down his cheeks.

"Come on." Hector grabbed my hand and led me away. "Are you ok?" He asked rubbing my back. I nodded.

"Drew!" Kai sobbed. "Drew, I love you!" He yelled, his voice drowned in his frustrated sadness. "I'm sorry I didn't say so before. Please come back!" He pleaded. "Please!" His voice got farther as we quickly put distance between us. It was a confession I wanted to hear when I liked him but it was too late now.

"Hector." I choked awkwardly, knowing I was saying this at a weird time. He looked at me and we slowed down. "I love you." I said.

"I love you too." He replied and then he gave me what I've been waiting for, for the whole time I've been crushing on him, what I've been waiting for all day. My first kiss. Something I promised to give to the one I love. A promise I thought I promised to Kai. I kissed his soft lips and held him closer to me. Hector is the one I love now. Sorry Kai...
