I sat in the same spot I had been in since I came home from school Friday, not having the motivation to do anything except watch TV and feel bad for myself. I was an idiot, and I knew that. I was an idiot for giving up the letters, for giving up any chance I might have had at love, for giving up Olivia. But the deed was done, and u could not take it back.
The past three days had been the worst days of my life. I had no where to put my sadness, no where to place all the words in my head. So they stayed inside me, unwelcome but unmoving.
I was staring lifelessly at the ground, and if anyone was watching me they would assume I was mesmerized by the floorboards.
But I wasn't looking at the floor. I was looking back at the past two weeks, thinking of the different things I could've done, how I could've managed to have Olivia sitting next to me right now.
I had almost drifted off into another fitful slumber when there was a knock at the door. I considered not answering and letting sleep overtake me, but the knocker was incessant.
I reluctantly stood up and walked over to the front door, running my fingers through my hair to wake myself up. I unlocked the door and opened it without bothering to check who was there. I assumed it was a package from my grandparents or something else of the sort. But when I saw who it was my eyes widened.
"Ashton... um, h-hi." Olivia, who was standing on my doorstep, said to me.
"Hi, uh, hello Olivia." My eyes filled with tears that threatened to spill over, but I wouldn't let them. I couldn't let them obscure my vision when I Olivia was standing right in front of me, when I had the opportunity to see her perfections and her flaws so closely, the opportunity to tell her everything I had kept bottled up.
Olivia looked up into my eyes. In her eyes I saw everything that I needed to see; there was hope, beauty, nervousness, and most importantly love, a love that I had hoped was reflected in my eyes.
We stared at each other endlessly. I was falling into her bright oceans, and there wasn't anything else I wanted to do.
I stepped outside of my house and closed the door behind me. I was one step away from being close enough to her to feel her breath on me. Olivia took that step before I could.
We never broke eye contact. When she smiled at me, I smiled back. I knew my smile showed her everything I didn't say. Our eyes stayed as connected as our hearts were in that moment. They stayed connected as I put my hands on her cheek and lowered my face to hers. Our eye contact wasn't broken until I closed my eyes and pressed my lips to her full, pink ones.
It was a soft and hesitant kiss that didn't last longer than a few seconds. But it was beautiful. It held the promise of something as pure as a blooming flower.
When our lips broke contact our eyes connected one again. I took her hand in mine and led her over to a spot under a large tree in my front yard.
We sat on the grass in the midst of wildflowers, just siting next to each other, not so close that we were touching, but we still felt as one because our connected hands made us part of each other.
I could only look at her as she looked at the ground, wondering how this had happened. How she had known it was me, how our hands fit together perfectly, how lucky I was to be sitting next to the love of my life.
I took my eyes away from her and focused my gaze on the patch of daisies to my left. I plucked several from the ground and attempted to intertwine them.
After I failed for the third time, I threw them on the ground in defeat. I heard a chuckle come from Olivia's mouth.
She picked up the daisies I had strewn across the grass in front of us and effortlessly tied them together.
"You seemed to be having trouble." She softly said with a smile, before handing me the chain of daisies.
"Yeah, um, it was really difficult. But you make it look really easy." I complained. Olivia only laughed at me again.
I set the daisies on top of her long blonde hair, where they looked beautiful but paled in comparison to her radiance.
"Now I look like a princess." Olivia giggled.
"You already looked like a princess."
