Lucia- Celeste Brooks Saturday 10:15 pm
We sat in the drive way of her home in her car. Every now and then I couldn't help but glance at her.
I noticed her clenched jaw and her nose that would twitch.
She was angry.
And she had every right to be, but in this moment I couldn't help but want her to come to me. I didn't want her quiet like this. I want her to cry as she clings onto me, If that's what she wanted of course.
I looked over to her again but this time my eyes lingered for a bit before I spoke, "Ryan?"
She didn't answer, she didn't even move. So I tried again, " Ryan talk to me"
If I had to get on my hands and knees and beg I would, She doesn't know how important it is to me for her to be okay.
"what do you want me to say Celeste ?" she questioned me with hurt laced between each word she spoke.
She finally made eye contact which made my stomach immediately drop. All of a sudden I could barely from words. I could even feel a bit of sweat from on my forehead, "what are you thinking?" I finally managed to muster up the courage to speak to speak to her.
" I couldn't tell you if I wanted to baby." she admitted with a small smile forming on her face.
I reached over the arm rest and grabbed one of her hands. "that's fine, what do you want to do now?"
"Can we just sit here for a bit, just like this please?" she begged staring into my soul with those eyes.
" Of course." I answered almost instantly.
We sat in the same position for the next 15 minutes, although my wrist was burning from the uncomfortable position I wouldn't dare move.
I was going over what i would say to comfort her in my head about one hundred times. While we were sitting in that silence I prayed that she wasn't thinking about anything that would cause us to stop talking.
I wouldn't be angry at her for choosing her best friend over me I man I would chose Harley and Evelyn over her in a heart beat but still, that would hurt so bad.
Even though we have only know each other for such a short period she has made a serious dent in my life.
I cant help but smile at the thought of her. She just has that affect on people, and its suck a shame that she has to feel the way she does right now. if I could find a way to transfer her pain to I would do it.
