I'm outside Marcus' house.
I've been waiting for him for half an hour.
I saw his car and I got really really happy.
He was a little bit confused.
He didn't expect me.
He got out of the car and I hugged him tightly.
Marcus: Hey you.
I didn't say anything.
I just continued to hug him tightly.
Marcus: I saw your calls but I was busy. Sorry.
Me: No, I am sorry.
He sighed.
He looked at my red eyes.
Marcus: Have you been crying?
Me: It was a rough, really rough day.
Marcus: Come inside.
We went inside his small apartment.
Even though it wasn't spacious, it's cozy. And it feels like home.
He was ready to ask me what happened, but I started to explain everything by myself.
Me: I went school, everyone thinks that I cheated on Jackson and I did actually 'cause I kissed you. Kylie told everyone I chose you over her, that I'm a hoe, that I'm a bad person-
I was crying.
Me: That I'm a bad friend and I am actually. And then me and Kylie argued and we're officially enemies from now on.
I stopped talking.
Marcus didn't even manage to take off his jacket.
Marcus: Are you finished?
Am I?
What about the "moving to another country" thing?
Me: Yes. That's it. And also my parents don't give a fuck about me. For real.
Marcus came closer and hugged me.
Marcus: Life's not that easy, huh?
Me: I'm a bad person. I didn't even ask you how your first day was.
Marcus: Let's have a shower together, baby. And we'll discuss everything.
I smiled.
Marcus and I haven't had sex yet. We're just showering together, touching eachother and sleeping together sometimes 'cause my parents are leaving me alone for days and I don't want to stay home.
We had a warm shower.
I liked his body.
I liked watching him.
I do want to move on but we've never discussed about this. I don't know if we should or we just wait for this to happen.
He was kissing my lips, my neck, my skin.
I really enjoy his lips touching my body.
Marcus: Life's not hard forever. I know you're being through some bad shit, but remember that power is the strength you get when you have no strength yet. You're a strong person when you stand up even though there are no hopes left.
Me: Everything is fucked up. My family, my friends... I have nothing.
Marcus: You have me.
He was right.
I have him.
I have a person who loves me.
Who cares about me.
Me: What if this between us is temporary?
Marcus: I think you've asked a similar questions in the past. Now, I'm going to answer with honesty.
I smiled.
Marcus: Do you love me?
Me: That's a question. Not an answer.
I smirked and so did he.
Marcus: Answer me. Do you love me?
Me: Yeah, I do. Is that something new?
Marcus: How long will this love last?
Me: Um.. I'm confused. I don't know what we're doing right now.
Marcus: We're keeping promises. So answer me. How long will your love last?
I was shy and happy at the same time.
Me: Forever.
Marcus: How long is forever?
Me: Um, till we fucking die?
We both smiled.
Marcus: No. Forever is till there's no oxygen left on earth. Till the sun dies. Till the galaxy is gone. Untill there's no more sky, stars and planets. That's forever. And that's how long our love will last.
Me: Damn it.
There were so many tears in my eyes.
Me: You really mean it?
Marcus: I do. And that's a promise. I want to spend the of my life with you.
He wiped my tears.
The fact that I was leaving the country broke my heart.
Me: So... Forever?
Marcus: Forever.
We kissed each other with more passion. He was stroking every part of my naked body. That was the most beautiful memory I've created with him.
I love him.
I freaking love him.
And I can't leave him... Although I will soon.
We were now on his bed. He was ready to get dressed.
Me: Don't.
He looked at me.
Marcus: What?
I wrapped my arms around his neck.
Me: Marcus.
Marcus: What?
I started kissing his lips.
Me: I want you to make me yours.
I kissed his neck and his chest.
He didn't say anything.
He understood.
We lay on the bed. He came on top of me and smile.
Marcus: I'm fucking in love with you.
Me: Show me then.
That was special.
He made it look special.
I know we were meant to be.
But I didn't know if we were meant to last.
Now I know.
Nothing is stronger than our love.
Nothing can split us.
Almost...
