Making it out alive

Chapter 9

Nicks POV:

I walked with my arms around Justin's hip as he made his way to the boarding area of the air port. He had one arm around my shoulder and the other holding his packed suitcase.

"Flight 38: Now boarding" The loud speaker announced. Justin looked down at me and his eyes met mine. I never knew what color his eyes were, sometimes they were brown, and other times they were green, as of now, they were a murky brown that shun in contrast to his black shirt that tightened around his muscles.

My face slowly turned into a frown as I thought about him leaving. I know I'm not the nicest person around and usually am pissed off, but I could still be upset about one of my closest and only friends leaving.

"Nick, you know I don't have to go..." Justin said trailing off as he looked at me.

"Justin, you really think I would stop you from going to UNC: Chapel Hill which has been your dream school since before you could talk, just so you could stay and go to community college with me? I think not." He chuckled and looked down at me.

"Nick before I go I want you to know something..."

"That you are madly in love with me and want to kiss me in the rain?" I said jokingly.

"Yes." He said with a series face. I stopped mid-laugh.

"You're kidding right? Ha-ha, Justin made a funny." I said waiting to see his series face crack into his goofy grin and tell me I'm the most gullible person ever.

"Nick, I've been in love with you for years, but was always too scared to tell you. When I thought I lost you after you got stabbed... I don't even want to think about that again, but I can't live without you."

"Justin..." I said trying to stop him, but he interrupted me.

"Did you know I kissed you when you were in the hospital and wouldn't wake up? Well, I guess you wouldn't know that, but I did, and it was amazing, and I can't stop thinking about it, and I want to do it again with you actually knowing though" he said rambling. I tried catching up with everything he was saying.

"Wait..." I said still confused, but once again, without letting me finish, Justin brought his lips down to mine. Immediately I felt an electric current spread through my body. It started at my stomach then just spread everywhere from there reaching all the way to my toes. Justin had his hands on my hips pulling me closer pressing his lips hard on my waiting for a reaction. I closed my eyes and reached my hands up to his neck allowing my lips to flow with his. He licked my bottom lips asking for entrance and I obliged. I can't believe I've never kissed anyone before, well, according to Justin I had kissed him, but that didn't count, I wasn't awake. I slowly raised my hands to his head tussling his hair and pulling him closer, pressing my lips harder on his more passionately. I heard him moan and felt his chest rumble against mine. We split apart for a second to catch our breath.

"That's it, I'm not leaving you" Justin said to me in a husky voice. I laughed then looked him in the eye.

"I don't think so bud." I said laughing.

"Flight 38: Last chance for boarding" The voice said again. Justin looked at me dread filling his eyes.

"How 'bout one for the road?" He said hopefully looking down at me. I laughed then went on my tippy toes to reach his lips. He deepened the kiss immediately and I felt a similar shock to before. He pushed me back against a wall still moving his lips with mine. It was an electric feeling, yet how come the only thing I could think of, was a certain boys beautiful pair of green eyes, even after that boy held a gun to my face, I tried blocking out my thoughts, with no avail.
