The tears become too much, the weight of his heartbreak hanging around my neck. I feel Jayce’s arms wrap around my body, holding me to my feet. “He loved you, he deserved to know.” Yes he did.


Jayce’s face comes to my neck, his hold on me precious as I nestle into the side of his face. My tears stop as I look at him - it was always him.


My arms are taken and I'm spun into the hold I need so desperately in this moment. I can feel hundreds of eyes on us, peering out from the hall but they don't matter to me anymore.


“I love you Lee.”


“I love you Jayce.”


Without hesitation I feel him pull my lips to his, they meet and all feeling of being cold and wet are gone. I feel only him, his lips, his tongue, his touch on my body. I can hear the distant gasps as the rumours start to fly but it means nothing to us in this moment.

We can't hide who we are anymore, this is us.


************************ 


We can't go back in there right now, we need to be alone and we both know one place in this school where no-one will bother us.

Jayce smiles as he takes my hand, our kiss in the rain finally ending. We step back towards the hall, Jayce pulling me through the crowd as water still runs off us into puddles on the floor. Brie catches my eye as we run through and she is the smile in a sea of shock.


We run out of the room giggling at the shock we've left behind us, down the hallway before coming to my favourite door in this place and jumping inside. Jayce pushes me in before I have time to say anything and I take in the sight of the familiar supply closet.


Jayce’s hands grab hold of my thighs and pull me up so I'm wrapped around him.


“No going back now.” He smirks before his lips smash into mine.


My heart flutters as I realise by now everyone in that room will know that I, Aleah Davies am completely and utterly in love with Jayce Thompson... and we don't give a fuck what any of them think about it.


His tongue wrestles mine but we both can't stop smiling through the kiss, nothing could ruin this moment...


*BANG! BANG! BANG!*


Jayce slams his hand over my mouth to stop my screams as my blood runs cold. He lowers me gently back to the floor and places his finger on his lip to stop me asking what he sees in my eyes I was about to.


We both already know what it was as the howls of terror follow.


Gunshots.
