It Was Love: Complete

Chapter 8

OH GOD! I'm too over-joyed to say anything. Yokav and I are friends. No more fighting, cussing, screwing with each other. We promise each other that we would always protect each other, and...I don't know. Tonight he told me he wanted to take me somewhere, somewhere where he would get peace and happiness. He didn't really tell me anymore than that. But who cares, at lease he would be with me. I know that I might be over-reacting like a psycho, but somewhere in my heart; I have a feeling for Yokav, not because he looked like Alec, but he's like him. In his heart, he's very loving, kind, and caring, just liked he was long ago, when he was just a innocent person, who lost his beloved family.

I dressed in something simple for Yokav! I didn't really want to over dress myself by wearing dresses or wearing heavy makeup. I simply wore my dark, blue,jeans and a red blouse. My hair was down, my ears were covered by my mothers hoop earing and I ate a minty gum, so in case, Yokav and I would, you know, exchange our kisses again. I heard the car beep from outside, and knew that it had to Yokav. " Okay, this is it!" I told myself in the mirror. Quickly, before heading out, I change my slippers to sneakers, and then when outside.

Yokav was standing, using his phone! Wow does he look gorgeous in that loose red shirt. He looked up and smiled. " You look pretty," he complimented me while opening the passengers door. I tried to hide my blush, but, it already was exposed.

" Thank you," I cooed, " and you look great too."

" Thanks!" Our drive was silent, Neither did Yokav and I said anything to each other, until we arrived at this beautiful foresty area.

" I want you to close your eyes, it's a surprise!," he told me.

" Why? Will you ditch me here, at the count of ten?" I joked, stupidly.

" Yeah, I will, now shut your eyes!"

" Okay?" I first got out of his car, and closed my eyes. " Your not leaving me, right Yokav?" I asked, feeling a little hesitant. Suddenly, I felt, his warm hands, held with mines. He led me through the forest, since I could feel the branches on my bare arms, and we stopped.

" You can open your eyes now," Yokav said, letting go. The moon was right in front of me, the only night in the dark sky, shining like a beautiful light shine, twinkling in its moonlight night. There were millions of stars, reflected from the clean, icing blue lake, reminding me a forest feeling so enchanted.

" It's....lt's beautiful, magnificent, anything that would mean beautiful, Yokav! It's amazing!"

"My father would take me here, with my little sister, and teach us how to fish, in a lake every Saturday. Later, when it would be close to night fall, my mother would come with my little baby brother, and serve us s'mores for dinner. The moon would always shine like this, every night, rain or shine, summer or winter. It will never break your trust!"

" And I can see why!" I walked closer to him, held his waist and laid my head on his chest. I can hear his heart beat, beating fast, sending peace to my ears. He didn't push me away, but placed his hands around my waist. " I love you Yokav...." Oh shit. Did I just say that out loud to him! I'm such an IDIOT! And that's how everything F'd Up. Yokav shifted his body away from me, more like a soft shove. " I'm sorry Yokav, I...I just wasn't thinking."

" DO YOU REALLY THINK, IT'S THE RIGHT TIME TO DO THIS?" He yelled. " Nobia, just because I accepted you to be my friend, remains a friend. Do you understand that? Just A Friend! Your nothing else, but that!"

" Then what about our kiss, you think that did not mean anything?"

" No, it does not! It's just two lips crashed with each other, mixing saliva, " He pointed out, " Please Nobia. Just...just focus in your job. That's it! After that, you go back to the U.S, I stay here. We live our lives!"

" How can you say that," I whispered back, letting go of my tears, letting my heart break.

" That's how it's going to work between us! You just want to be with me, because I look like Alec, Right Nobia. Well, it's not going to happen!"

" WHAT THE FUCK DOES ALEC HAVE TO DO WITH HIS? STOP INVOLVING HIM WITH OUR LIVES," I cried, " He's gone, he's with God. But that, doesn't mean I can't fall in love again, Yokav!"

" We should Leave now!" He walked away from me, ending this discussion with his silence. No! I wasn't going to let him get away from this. He's hiding something! I grabbed him by the shoulders, and SLAP! I felt the vibration of pain, on to my cheek, feeling the numbness. Yokav eyes widen, guilty of what he had just done to me. " Nobia..I'm,"

" It's..It's okay Yokav," I forced myself to smile, " It's ...." I ran away, into the forest.

" NOBIA WAIT," He called out for me. I can hear his foot steps from behind, and I just kept on running.

" YOKAV, JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!" I yelled. Carefully, I jumped over a pile of snakes, but over bad luck, I slid down on wet mud, which felt like a slide, shunned from Yokav's eyes, as he ran across, looking for me. " YOKAV!!" I screamed for him. My back was sliding down, maybe sixty miles per hour, over sharp rocks, which probably would scar my back for life. Finally the slide ended, with a throw, in the lake, with me!
