The 2 sides of love chapter 1 Avellana

Avellana

June 18
(continued)

As the day started to wind down and the sun begin to set, We found ourselves on a bench near the exit. We both knew it was time to part ways soon, but neither of us wanted the day to end. A comfortable silence settled between us spoke a million words, and we exchanged knowing glances, as if reading each other's minds. It was time for her to leave. As we said our goodbyes she gave me a hug and it was a warm one. I put my arms around her for the first time and it felt right. As she turned around and walked away, I had this gut feeling, unable to suppress this feelings any longer, I reached out and gently put my arm on her shoulder. She turned around and there was a strand of hair in face so I brushed the hair away from her glowing face. With a soft smile, she confessed, "You know, I didn't agree to this date just as friends." Her hazel eyes twinkled like the stars in a dark black night, delight. I took a deep breath, my heart racing, and admitted, "I didn't either." In that moment, the atmosphere between us changed.

The tension was palpable, and our connection was charged with unspoken emotions. Without a second thought, we closed the distance between us, I put my hands on her waist grabbed her tight as she laughed and looked at me with half closed eyes. Then it happened, I don't know why it happened but I guess we both felt it. Our lips getting closing, meeting in a tender, heartfelt kiss. Time seemed to stand still around us, as we shared this unexpected moment together. My hands going down her hips grabbing her closer to me and her putting her arms around my neck. Our bodies the closest they've been. I didn't want this moment to end and I hope she felt the same way. We must have been at it for a solid 5 minutes because when we finally pulled away, we were both breathless and had the same smile. I laughed softly and asked, "Well, what are we? Just friends? Or anymore then that?" Her laughter mingled with my, her hazel eyes still locked onto my eyes. "Maybe yes, maybe no. We'll see." With the feelings no longer hidden.

June 19
It was some of the best sleep I had in awhile if not the best sleep I've had. As I got up out of bed I remembered how I felt on the car ride back home. I remember sitting in the car on the way back home, my mind was a whirlwind of emotions. The sense of us just kissing lingered within my thoughts, like a sweet melody playing in the background. I couldn't help but replay the moment over and over, each time feeling a mix of exhilaration and uncertainty. The road ahead seemed to stretched out, but my focus was far from the passing scenery. I found myself lost in introspection, trying to decipher this feeling. The warmth of her lips against my lips still sent a shiver down my spine.

I wondered if she felt the same magnetic pull I felt, or if the kiss had been a spontaneous moment for her. My heart alternated between racing with excitement and fluttering with nervousness. I had always cherished the way she would just care about me like no one else did, and now this unexpected twist had added a layer of complexity to this feeling I had. I couldn't help but wonder where this newfound connection might lead me, lead us. As the car hummed along, My mind wandered through a cascade of thoughts. Replaying the conversations from yesterday, our shared laughter, and the way her hazel eyes had held a gaze so effortlessly.

I found myself once again smiling, my heart swelling with the prospect of what future might hold. At the same time, a cloud of uncertainty lingered. Like the same cloud that followed me everywhere I went. The cloud that would rain upon me. The rain which followed me to the paradise that had been. This feeling again made me question myself, what if this would affect this friendship we had? What if the kiss had been a mistake? As much as he I felt drawn to her, I also knew that our bond as friends was precious. I hoped that whatever came next, we could navigate it together, with open hearts and honest communication. As I making breakfast I looked outside the kitchen and I remembered how yesterday night I was coming back from seeing her. Me parking the car in the parking lot, Sitting down for a moment, taking a deep breath and allowing my thoughts to finally settle in.

I knew that this journey had just begun, and I was ready to embrace whatever twists and turns laid ahead. As I ate breakfast I looked at my phone and sure enough there it was. "Good morning, I hope you slept good because I did. I can't stop thinking about the way you grabbed my waist when we kissed I miss your lips" "Oh really?" I said. "Your all I want and no one else I know things are probably moving fast but every since we talked at that party I've always thought you were cute and I wanted to tell you but I had no way of saying it without blushing" "well now it's your chance to say" as I laughed while I wrote it. "I like you a lot". I read that and I wanted to say the same thing but I was stuck with questioning where we stood. "But where do we stand? What are we? Are we friends? Are we even friends? Are we more than friends?"
