I woke up with my legs wrap around Cara’s. My head was on her chest. My arm on top of her stomach. I feel the butterfly on my stomach. I’ve never felt this good with anyone before. Like ever. Especially, not with a girl. I feel comfortable; it feels like home in her arms. I want to stay like this forever, with her.
I closed my eyes and drifted to sleep once again.
I woke up (once again) feeling cold. I open my eyes, and Cara was not there anymore. She’s not cuddling with me anymore. I feel sad, like something’s missing but I do not know what.
I stare blankly at the ceiling, trying to understand what I was feeling. I feel empty. I want to feel that feeling again when I am with Cara.
Suddenly, I heard my hotel door open.
I sit on my bed and look who is it at the door, it was Cara. I jumped off the bed and hurried to her.
I hugged her, pretty tight.
“oh! Looks like someone missed me already!” she exclaimed.
I didn’t respond, I just kept on hugging her.
“Hey! Let’s continue this later. Eat first. You are a pretty good sleeper!” she said with a laugh.
I released her from the hug and kissed her cheeks.
awwwww. Did I just make her blush? Smile creeps across my face.
I think she wasn’t expecting that.
“We’re even now!” I said lively. Still smiling.
I made my way to the couch and sit, Cara followed and put down the pizza on the small table in front of us.
“Eat then we can continue.” She said.
“Why don’t we start now while eating?” I said smirking. I put my legs across her lap and grab some pizza and started eating.
She eyed me. “What?” I asked.
“What are we?” she asked.
I am left speechless with her question. Yeah right. What are we? One minute we hangout, the second we cuddle; now I’m being all this flirty. I don’t know. I don’t have any idea. I am sure I haven’t felt something like this before with anyone but I am not so sure about this.
“I don’t know.” I replied.
“You don’t know Kendall, really? Really?!” She exclaimed. I am a bit shocked by her tone.
“Friends. We’re friends.” I answered; I regretted that once I said it, I was really hoping it to be more than that. But I can’t.
All my life I know I want boys or guys, but with her, I don’t know what is wrong with my fvcking stomach.
If this becomes more than friends, I can’t take it all. I don’t know what my family would think of me. I love my family and I don’t want to put them thru this issue.
“Friends don’t cuddle. Friends don’t flirt with each other. Get your facts right Kendall.” she release herself from me. Stood up and was on her way to the door.
I stood up, run in front of her, blocking her way out. I hold onto her arms. I look her in the eye and tears started to fall without me knowing. I sob.
“Cara, please don’t do this. You are the only person that makes me feel this way. I love your hug, I love the way you laugh, I love your simplicity, and you make me feel things I haven’t felt before. I am not sure what this is. But please, don’t go until I know what this is. I know it’s hard for you, but it is hard for me too. “
“Stop crying babe. I won’t. I won’t leave. Just please stop crying, I don’t want to see you like this.” She wiped my cheeks with her thumb, and I was caught up in the moment.
I slowly walk to her; I wrapped my arms around her and pull her tightly against me. I kiss her.
