7 minutes in heaven

(In case you didn't know the game. Two people are selected to go into a closet or other dark enclosed space and do whatever they like for seven minutes. It is common for the participants to kiss or make out, but they may instead choose to talk, or simply do nothing at all and wait for the time to expire.)

You really weren't excited for this party because you broke up with your ex a month ago over text and blocked him. But your friends insisted you go!

At the party someone suggested to play 7 minutes in heaven, you had to spin the bottle and whoever it landed on was the person you had to go in the closet with.

Mason wasn't going to participate in this stupid game,or so he thought until he saw you sit in the circle with others. At that moment he muttered something under his breath and sat down right in front of you.

~~~

The game begun and I spun the bottle without a second thought but froze when it pointed at me and my ex. He looked me up and down, my cheeks turned red. He put his tongue onto his inner
cheek and looked away.

"I'm not doing this! " I said, grabbing the bottle again to respin but becca takes it away.

Everyone groaned and booed me,

"If you're not going with him then spin again the bottle. But whoever it lands on, you're going without saying a word" Miguel informed, trying to hold in his laughter looking at my face.

"Alright."

Mason stood up, looking not bothered at all, Becca and some random guy pushed me and mason into the closet by force and closed it.

awkward.

The closet was really small, our bodies were almost touching.

"we don't have to" I cleared immediately.

He took a step closer and his face expression dropped,

"Whats wrong with you, Bee-"

"Mason no don't call me that," i cut him off, remembering he used that nickname when we dated.

"why would you do me like this ? You always try to avoid me and now you can't, i need an explanation, i at least need closure. Please. Why?"

I looked down,trying not to face him. He cupped my face with his hands and made me look at him.

"Bee, why did you ghost me ?"

I pushed him away gently and sighed.

"Mason, i can't. It's nothing. It just happened I-"

"Stop lying." he placed his hands firmly on my waist. I jumped.

I got taken aback by that. I took his hands gently and pushed them off of me. He really wants an answer and even though Its hard for me to say it, i need to, he needs closure right ?

"Alright. Mason," I paused, and looked up to him.

"Say it"

"I- i cant."

"For fucks sakes fucking say it."

"Mason i was falling in love." My voice trembled. His gaze softened

"What ?"

"Yea. I was falling for you.. head over heels and it scared me to my core, the intensity of those emotions terrified me, i mean, i didn't know how to handle them. I know it sounds silly but.."

"Why didn't you just tell me? I would've understood. I- I mean, i wish you had trusted me enough to share that, it would've been better than ghosting me out of the blue."

"Mason," I took his hand ,"I know and I regret not being honest with you, fear can make us do crazy things i guess, right ?"

I waited for an answer, he refused to meet my eyes.

"Mason ?" He let go of my hand,

"I can't help but feel hurt that you didn't say anything. We could have had something amazing if you had just been honest with me. I was falling in love with you too. I still love you."

My heart dropped hearing those words. Like a relief..Or a slap in the face.

He looked up at me, his puppy eyes and sad face broke my heart.

"Be honest with me, do you still love me bee ? It's only been a month. I know deep down you haven't moved on yet, right ?"

I pause for a moment, this is a lot.

" No, I haven't moved on either. I feel ashamed for not being honest about it earlier. It's hard to admit, but my feelings for you are still there, and I regret not addressing them soo-"

I couldn't finish because soon his lips were pressing against mine effusively. I start making out with him rough, expressing all the lost time we had in the kiss.
He pulls back, and cups my face in his hands, his breathing is shaking, he looks deep in my eyes.

" you don't know how long I have been waiting and dreaming about this."

I kiss him, His hands go straight down my lower back, pulling me closer to him even though the space was already small. He backed me against the door to prevent the others from opening it. I mean, no one was really going to, we still had 5 minutes left.
