Theo takes you home, says his farewell and when he tries to kiss you good night you dodge him and give him a hug in return he looks confused and a bit sad but turns around is on his way.

You go to your bed room and pass out once you hit your bed.
__________________________________

Your phones continuous buzzing is what wakes you, a string of messages followed all from Theo ranging from good mornings, questions of you slept well, and asking if you'd like to catch a bite at the cafe again. You agree but you don't really dress up, you don't want to give him the wrong idea; plus your hangover doesn't help.

You agree thinking that this couldn't hurt if you tried, Theo picked you up roses in hand, of course Frank was over with your dad. He looked a bit shocked or sad maybe ? It was hard to tell. Theo and you got to the cafe and he went on about how it's " light in food for more conversation" but nothing about this made you want to talk more and Theo filled the silence once again.

" you know I was thinking about taking an internship in San Antonio and I know it's a little early for this but I really like you, and I like us; and the drive from San Antonio isn't all that bad maybe even could take a train or something on the weekends."
He rambled as he does when he's nervous

Is he really talking about this ?

maybe it was your expression because not to long later Theo dropped it. " look I know we re-met on wrong level I don't know what I was on that night, but I assure you that'll never happen again okay ?, I promise; and I know I jumped right in right now but I like you, I like us" he was sentimental, genuine but you couldn't for reasons he wouldn't understand.

" I don't know, let's just see where we go yeah?" You sigh out.  God could you have been more of a bitch? All the light drained from his eyes " oh..., no yeah okay I get it " he paused " well best get going I gotta do some things back home". he paused again as he stood behind the chair " you gonna need a ride back home or ? " he stutters god of course he was upset and didn't want you in his car " oh no it's fine, thank you " you mumble. He smiled a faded smile then turned and left.

You text Frank to asking to pick you up and he does no questions asked, of course he'll pick you up. Once in his faded pick up he asks angrily " what that piece of shit do now ?" Looking out the window you watched as buildings passed and the how the traffic lights flashed from green to yellow to red. Water begins to race down the glass. It started raining ? In the middle of summer.

Your eyes become foggy, why ?, why couldn't you do it ?, why couldn't you move on from your nothingness with Frank. Your sobs slipped past your lips and Frank looked at you alerted immediately. He quickly pulled to the side of the empty road throwing his truck in park, unbuckling himself and getting out the car running to your side. His hands pulled your face up to look it over, but your head turned to the side before he turned it to him again. Your sobs grew louder and tears gushed out harder, his thumbs wiped them away as they came. When you looked at him, his face looked desperate his eyes wide trying to see your wound as if it was physical.

When your eyes met he pulled you in, his arms wrapping tightly around your back; your face settles in his neck " why am I like this ?" One of his hands comes up to stroke your hair softly before he whispers. " why are you like what sweetheart ?" You bite your lip trying to stop the words from spewing out, but Frank doesn't give up " hmm what is it sweet girl " just like that the flood fates were open " why can't I like him, he's so... so my age, and he wants me so why ?" Frank is quiet for some time then
" so why what ?"  You choke back another sob

" so why can't I want him the way I want you "

You bawl your fist full of his now soaked jacket and lean into him. " get back in the truck Frank you're gonna get sick" you hiccup. He doesn't move just hugs you tighter and moves to nuzzle in your neck " god hun you really don't know ?"  You try to pull back but he's holding you against him " know what- " he cuts you off.

" it's you sweetheart, you're the little princess running around in my head, there was never anyone else; I'm sorry you thought it was real and I that I didn't try harder to show you it wasn't. God I'm sorry I -... I just thought a boy your age would be better for you ." He paused drawing in a large breath " I ... I don't want you with anyone else, I want to be the only one to see you and know everything about you "

His grip loose and you pull back a bit to look at him tears streaking down his face. " Frank " you grab his hands and he looks at you

" it's only ever been you too "

You cup his face and kiss him breaking it only to breathe and whisper.

"This is our little secret"
