ASTRID.
I was sitting outside on my porch at 4 am in the morning. I was hurt. Alone. I didn't know what to feel right now. I felt....empty.
Kai was my very first crush. And he was treating me like shit. I thought he was starting to acknowledge me for the first time. But my gullible self fell for his charm, and now look at me. I can't even sleep. I didn't know what his problem. I called the only two people who would know what to do. They were over in more than 5 min. I wanted to cry but it all came out as anger. People in the neighborhood must think I need mental help. I mean, what you say to a girl on a porch, in freezing weather in just shorts a tank top and socks, that's screaming a a lot of bullshit?
"Hey girl" I hear Sarah's voice and I look up, and see her and Jane standing in front of me. They brought me coffee, but I declined, and Jane drank it. I haven't eaten for 2 days, but I wasn't hungry. I was just sad. I started screaming again, so they took me inside. I tried to calm down, but I just had to break something.
I yelled, kicked the wall, and then ran upstairs. I look to my window, then look away again. I kept it closed since that night. I changed, packed my sport bag, and then I went back downstairs. I was wearing my Nikes, a tight top with a built in sports bra, and 3-quarter leggings. I had my hair tied up in a ponytail. I took my bag into the kitchen and opened the freezer. I took out the 6 frozen water bottles I always have, and then I took out 3 water bottles that was unfreezed but ice cold out of he fridge. I went to the living room to see Sarah and Jane watching a movie.
"Hey guys. I'm going out. Don't wait up. You guys can leave if you want to" I say, and then I run out the door, and go to my car. I arrived at the gym, and went straight to the boxing bags. I was well known here. I have anger management issues. There was this really hot guy that helps me train. His name is Adam.I made my way over to my favorite bag, and wrapped my hands in bandages. I didn't like the gloves. I was old school. It fucked up my knuckles sometimes yes, but noting serious I haven't seen before. I was just about to start fucking up the bag with my fist, when I heard that voice. I turned around to see Adam stand there, and we greeted, but he left me after that. He always knew when I needed my time alone.
I put in my earphones, and blasted some Maroon 5. I punched the bag with all my strength, all that anger and rage giving me an adrenaline rush. I was starting to sweat, and my hands ached, but I couldn't feel them, with the swelling. I drank some water and then continued. I started pulling out my tricks I learned it kick-boxing, and I kicked it as hard as I could. My anger didn't stop. I was going full rage now, and the stuffing in the bag was going soft. I was angry, but I felt the tears stream down my face. I felt a hand on my shoulder, and I turned and nearly hit the person, but I stopped. Well maybe I should've punched him. I look into his eyes, and the tears come even more.
"Hey, its ok" That soft voice I loved to hear felt like it was piercing my heart.
"Don't touch me" I say and rip away from Kai. He looked hurt. I tried to wipe my tears with my hands, but when I press hard on them they hurt. I let out a yelp. He looked worried instantly. I tried to unwrap the bandages but it was useless. I felt a soft hand touching my wrist, and it slid down to my hand, and started unwrapping the bandages. I sniffed, and I could feel him glance at me, every 5 seconds. When he was done he lifted my hand to his lips, and placed a soft kiss on the top of it. I looked up at him in shock, and cried again.
"What am I to you? A toy?" I ask and he looks confused.
"What do you mean?" He asks.
"You hurt me, and now you are being all nice and caring again. I mean you ignored me for a whole week, and now you do this to me again" I say, and he smirks.
"I had to. You don't know what you do to me" He says, and then he comes closer, but I keep babbling so I didn't notice.
"You are so confusing. You can't do that to a girl I mean I thought we were friends, but clearly not. And now you come with your charm again, and then you think all will be fine, and its not. Its not fine. It hurts like hell ok? And you wouldn't know cause you never felt like this. But this is what you do isn't it? You act all nice, and then I fall for it, and then you just hurt me and then you do it again, I mean who does that? You are a sick, mean twisted-" I was cut off by his arm sliding around my waist, and his chest pressed up against mine, and his, and his forehead against mine, and I was looking in his eyes with shock. I felt his hot breath against my lips.
"You don't know what you do to me, ok? You make me crazy. And I didn't know what to do, so I just hid from you. But I know what I want, and that's you. I really like you Astrid, and I hope you can forgive me for acting so dumb?" He asks, I couldn't talk. He laughed.
"I thought you hated me" I say.
"I could never hate you" And then he kisses my cheek, and just holds me, while I calm down. Well at least I know how he feels about me.
