Forget me not (Connor Stoll)

Drew

 Connor's Pov

That was perfect.

Everything about it just felt right, like life was always meant to feel that way.

We woke up early that morning, around 5 Am.

Actually, we didn't wake up, we WERE woken up by Travis's obnoxious laughter.

He was standing infront of us, laughing his ass off, a hand on his stomach, and the other pointing at us.

"OH MY GODS, YOU TWO ARE SOOOO IN TROUBLE" he yells, still laughing.

"Travis, it's not what it looks like you perv" says Lily, also chuckling, but her face was red with embarrassment.

"Trav, I swear, if you SNITCH on us.." I jump up to my feet and fake punch him right in his forehead, making him back off a bit in shock.

After I hugged him too, I mean like I had to thank him, this had all been his plan after all.

"Ok, well I'm going to leave you guys to it, bye bye lovebirds" says Travis over his shoulder, and he immediately darted off, probably to tell Percy and Sherman.

"Hey" I say softly, turning my head around to Lily, smiling at her.

She looked surreal this morning; her hair slightly messy from sleeping outside, forget me nots sprouting at her feet, and her beautiful warm smile that had always reminded me of morning dew.

"Hey", she says right back, holding my hand and giving it a light squeeze.

My heart melted.

No, like I actually think it did.

"I love you" I mutter under my breath.

Worst idea ever.

"What-what did you say" says Lily, turning towards me abruptly.

"I-I, I said I love you Lily" 

I watched her eyes turn back to her usual cold expression, her smile gone.

"Connor, what in the Hades" she continues, "What do you mean, YOU LOVE ME? All we did was fall asleep close to each other, you're moving WAY too fast. I have more important things to deal with. Plus, I really don't think we would be a good couple, I considered you more of a fling".

Wow.

With the same speed my heart had melted, it just broke as well.

What in the actual fuck.

"Lily what the fuck, what do you mean you considered me a fucking fling?" I yell back, my eyes are starting to sting with tears, my voice breaking already.

I was ready to give her the world already.

Maybe I really was childish, and was moving too fast, but I truly love her, why is she rejecting me already.

"You heard me Stoll, fuck off" she yells back at me, right in my face.

Her eyes are stone cold, not even a hint of tears.

All I can see in them is fury, they looked a different type of brown, like burnt wood brown, not the usual dark honey color.

Had I really messed up THAT bad?

"Ok" I say, getting up and leaving, dragging my feet on the ground, stomping on all the flowers I could see, tears running down my cheeks, my eyes burning like never before.
