Chapter 12
Heera's pov
When we got back to the car I was feeling so guilty for how I acted up there.
It was so awkward in the car,nobody was making a move to start a conversation and the tension was so thick almost suffocating by itself.
So I turned on the radio and left it to play at a lower volume just incase I was oversteping again.
Honestly I can be so stupid sometimes.
So how did I even think that acting like that was ok.
I took us out there so we could relax and we were doing so well but I just had to go and ruin it.
'Stupid!stupid!I mentally continued to scold myself.
I was so lost in my head I didn't even notice us pulling up in my driveway
I felt a hand link in mine and squeeze abit.
"You know you can always talk to me right,"he smiled gently at me.
"I know Gray,I'm sorry I ruined out day.
"You didn't ruin anything H,it's ok to be vulnerable sometimes,I'll see you in school tomorrow.
"Do you wanna come in for a bit." I found myself asking .
I really wasnt ready to be by myself tonight.
"If you're sure.
Of course,I want to make it up to you.
" you don't have to make up for anything but I'll join you for a while .he answered like the sweet guy he was.
I opened the door and let him in.
" I've been meaning to ask.where are your parents.I've noticed you're always alone whenever I drop you off.
I felt all the blood drain from my face.
I wasn't really ready to let him know now much of a broken home I have.
"Uuum,on a business trip,they'll be back
I felt the guilt quietly creep in again
He's been nothing but honest with me and how I'm lying to him
It was so hard to talk about my mum and my fathers abandonment was still fresh in my mind.
I'm sure if I began talking I was going to just break down and I'm too tired for that.
"Do you want anything to drink?"
'Water will be fine thanks,'
Okey,make yourself comfortable,I'll be back in a second."
I quickly went upstairs to change before coming back down
I went to the kitchen and filled up a glass with water and picked up some chips before joining him in the living room.
"Here you are,I handed him the water and settle down next to him
So wanna watch a movie or something?"
'Sure thing,I'm down."
I picked the remote and looked up a movie that wouldn't take along time knowing he needed to go back home soon,sigh,if only.
I found 'the fault in our stars' on one of the channels and settled on that one
I absolutely love this movie even if it breaks my heart every time I watch it
It hurts so bad you can literally feel your heart break with every scene.
But in the end don't we all crave for love like that.
Even if it was short lived but at least you get a taste of what loving and being loved back with the same intensity feels like.
Once it started I curled up next to.Miles knowing that I'm gonna need alot of comforting for this particular one.
Before I knew it I was crying my heart out,literally balling because of a movie.
Miles was sniffing next to me.I was glad to see that at least i wasn't the only one who was affected.
It was beautiful and so sad at the same time and my emotions were everywhere
Miles pulled me in for a hug and just held me while I continued to cry as I listened to the eulogies,
I stayed there until the credits rolled up.
I look up to find Miles already looking at me
"Hey it's ok,its just a movie,I promise they're all ok.
He continued to rub circles on my back till I was finally calm.
I decided I needed something to cheer me up so I put on 'How I met your mother' and went to order pizza for dinner.
We sat down and continued to watch as we waited for my order to arrive.
The way I was laughing you couldn't believe I was just crying so hard a few minutes ago,well such is life.
No matter how much it breaks my heart ,life will always go on unfortunately.
I heard the doorbell and our food was here
We ate in silence and continued to watch episode after episode till we couldn't anymore cause we were totally spent.
'I have to go home Heera,I heard him say as he stood up to leave
I tried to hide the disappointment from my voice at his leaving but I knew he needed to go home,we had school in the morning.
"It's ok,I'll see you tomorrow in school." I said hugging him as he left.
I stood on the porch till the light from his car faded.
I went back in to continue with my show before going to bed.
Well at least it ended well.
