I walked up to the sink and turned the water on. The sound of the water calmed me down. I stretched my hands out into a bowl like stance under the rushing water. It felt relieving; The water running through my fingers, it reminded me that I was still alive. I lifted the captured water from my hands to my face. I looked up into the mirror above the sink.
Why can't I just tell her?
Drops of water fell from my face and onto my uniform.
"Look at you el-" I was cut off. The restroom door slammed open with a loud crash against the wall.
"What the hell" I said under my breath. A girl came in sobbing her ass off. She didn't seem to notice me standing there;She walked into one of the stalls. I waited a couple of minutes before she stopped. I tried my best to quietly turn the soothing water off.
"Hello?" She sniffled. I was startled by the familiar voice that greeted my ears, I still couldn't make out who it was do to the fact that she just finished crying.
"Um h-hi there."
"You heard all of that didn't you?"
"Yea um pretty much"
She unlocked the stall gently. I gulped. I was scared to see what face was about to be revealed to me.
"Hi" her fragile voice bounced off the walls. My heart fell out my ass. It was her. She looked beautiful, even when she cried.Around her eyes were all blotchy from the eye make up that was ruined, but her eyes saved how bad it looked. Her eyes were blue. Really light blue with a little green and yellow flecks around her pupils. Her hair was dirty blonde and reached half way down her back. Her name was Skye.
"What, um ar-are you okay?" She said.
"Yea um sorry."
What the fuck is wrong with me ughrr.
An awkward silence surrounded us. I couldn't stop looking at her. She's so pretty. I awkwardly walked into one of the the stalls to get some tissue for her. As I walked out I found myself standing directly in front of her,so little space between us.
"I got some, uh tissue for your make up." I stuttered.
"..."
She didn't say a word, I guess she was giving me the honor to clean it off for her. I smiled sheepishly as I lifted my hand up to her cheek. She suddenly reached up and grabbed my hand.
"I got it from here"
I felt my heart race rapidly. When she touched me I felt different. I felt like holding her in my arms. I wanted to hug her and tell her it was gonna be okay. I wanted her to touch my hand again, more likely hold it.
