Young Love

Everything's fallen apart part 2

-Simon?!

The boy's gaze was fixed on me so intensely, that I felt pain. At least three different emotions flashed across his face. Confusion, sadness, and finally anger. However, he said nothing. He gave us one last look, and turned back, not paying attention to anything, anymore.

-Fuck. I whispered.

Go back, inside! I pleaded, Stella.

-But, Wille... She began.

-I said, go back inside! I snapped.

Damn, it was too harsh. I realized it too late, though.

-Stella...

The girl didn't stop. 

-Shit! I muttered.

I had to find Simon! He couldn't be far, so I ran after him. The air was thick and heavy. But my feet didn't seem to touch the ground at all.

-Simon! I called.

Simon!

Hey, wait!

Stop it, please!

Please, I'm begging you, Simon!

I stopped running. I was staring at his back, waiting for his reaction. 

-So I guess the whole lecture about me supposedly cheating doesn't apply to you. He muttered, without facing me.

-What? What are you saying for fuck sake? I raised my voice, trying to catch my breath.

-You made me feel horrible, coz someone kissed me out of my will, then you just do what? Are you trying to find a rebound or...? He turned around. If looks could kill I would be dead.

-Simon, stop it, please! I whimpered.

Stella and I are nothing, you know that!

I mean, we're friends, but we wouldn't do anything more. You've gotta believe me. I added.

She was comforting me, and I liked it, coz she doesn't ask me these questions about you, and...

We were just having fun like literally, we were dancing to some childhood songs. I... Don't know, I felt like she understands me, we... 

My chest was moving up and down, super fast. My vision began to get blurry...

-You okay? I mean can you breathe? Simon approached me, suddenly concerned.

-Yes. I hissed.

After a few seconds, I felt better.

-I'm sorry, but I can't take this anymore. Why would I believe you? Simon started to walk away, again.

-Simon, I am in love with you! I yelled, with a little bit of desperation.

Suddenly, time stopped.

-What? The boy turned to look at me, raising his eyebrow.

-I am in love with you, Simon. I assured him.

That's probably why I was so... lonely and, sad and, desperate when I saw you with Kenji. I just felt betrayed, coz he told me he won't do anything to mess up our relationship, and then all of this happened... And I just...

The boy wrapped his arms around my waist and shut my mouth, pressing his swollen lips on mine. He pulled me even closer to him, even though it seemed impossible. I did not remain passive. I tried to taste every millimeter of his lips. There was something aggressive, and animalistic about it, but we both felt safe. His fingers tugged at the strands of my hair. I wanted so much to feel his skin, I started to run my hands over his back, rubbing his skin. I pulled away slightly just to kiss him, right behind his earlobe. Simon put his head in the crook of my neck. Our heavy breaths were mixing now, creating a whole.
