I don't even wanna fuck;
I just like you.

"I'm scared." She gets the words out so meekly like a bullied child. "Of what?" He questions. His lips were so soothing as if they just belonged there. They did. The temperature was just right, like she was goldilocks finding the porridge.

Why? "Because when I'm with you, I feel like I'm overstepping what the universe wants me to have." The confusion doesn't fade away from his face, but she doesn't mind it. She doesn't mind the way he looks at her so desperately.

Makes her feel wanted by a man who she doesn't even know still wants her. "You treat me like shit, Michael. You don't treat people you love like shit." The boy swallows. "Fuck, you know that's not true. My father loved me, but he didn't treat me. l was God."

He's bitter. Your eyes widened at the very thought of him treating you like this because he's bitter. You weren't his father; you were nothing like his father. He was nothing like his father, either. "You're not your father. Fuck, you're really nothing like him. Please." Her voice almost desperate.

It's the one truth he knows he can trust. He's nothing like that man. Nothing like the man who made him. I sighed. "Fuck, Kaiser, I've never just discarded you like that." He scoffs a bit. She was right. "I don't get to treat you like this either. I know. I swear I know."

Whatever explanation he tries to let escape his mouth stays stuck in there as if it Hayes the thought of you forgiving him. "I'm scared." Nikita's eyes widen. He's scared? She's praying to whatever being there may be that it's not of her. It can't be.

No. She won't even think about it. "Scared that if there's no need for you to keep chasing me, you'll just get bored and leave." A low chuckle escapes from her lips. He tenses up.

Scared isn't the best word, really. It fits the situation, his feels, but it doesn't fit him. Michael Kaiser doesn't get scared. He doesn't get scared over losing a girl like he's desperate. But shit, he is. He doesn't want her to know how uncontrollably into her he is.

"You know, I don't think I'd wait years just to leave you. Seems like a waste of time." He gulps. He's never really actually thought past it. He's always just hid behind the thoughts that his brain ruthlessly shoves towards him.

He doesn't even acknowledge the fact that she would rather be ripped off the face of the Earth than have to live in one without him. "I mean, there can only be so many reasons I'd do that." She sounds like she's confident: she can act. She can't. She can't pretend her eyes aren't watery.

And he can't pretend he doesn't see the water in them. He really can't fake it. There's no way in this world he could look at her and turn his head. So, he doesn't. He has her face in his hands, and he smiles. The sight is enough for her tears to instantly soak up.

Like an angel finally getting the opportunity of ascending back into the heavens. She can't help but lean in dangerously close. Just a closer view, that is all.

But there is nothing stopping them from themselves. Nothing but the slowly closing space between their lips. His eyes on hers, and her eyes roaming every inch of that face of his. She knows she should jump into things recklessly. She doesn't know how she'd ever be able to hold herself back if she even tasted it once.

Still, her face got closer. Close enough to brush against his lips, close enough to feel that spark of electricity that could either make or break everything. Close enought to realise that it's too close.

Far enough to fully observe his unreadable expression. He wants to kiss her. He can't imagine doing anything else after that sort of thing. He looks at her. "Do you want me to?" She doesn't answer before nodding slightly. He doesn't hesitate.

He doesn't even blink before his lips crash violently into hers. It feels like they describe it in fiction, only better. It's like dancing on electricity. It's like burning in flames that are so painfully enticing. It's like reaching an undiscovered high.

It's like falling in love.
