"Now class!" The ear shattering screech of Mrs. Bakers voice stabbed Kylie's ears as she zones out. Kylie could think of a hundred better things to be doing that learning about the mundane activities of Odysseus.
She wanted to be with her husband! She wanted to feel the warmth of his body pressed up against hers as they lay on the couch together. She wanted to pleasure of just laying her eyes on him once through out the 45 minute class period.
Kylie and Trent only have 2 class periods throughout the day. Algebra and P.E.
It hurts them to not be together. It's almost like they have a unnatural pull to be together. Both Kylie and Trent hate when couples in school are all over each other and practically dry humping in the hallways so they decided to not be like those couples.
They sneak small kisses and hugs every once and a while but they limit it to that.
As soon as school ended, Trent was already waiting for Kylie at her locker. Just seeing him always puts a smile on her face and they walk out of school hand in hand.
Only breaking their grips on each others hands for a moment to get into the car, they rejoin and drive home.
"Do you ever think what would happen if we never met?" Trent asked out of the blue breaking the comfortable silence, shattering Kylie's train of thought. Kylie could never properly function when Trent spoke. It was as if, his voice was a key to a big door in her brain that let all knowledge spill out.
"David would still be here, I would probably be dead. My mom would probably be dead. Molly would probably be dead." She whispered sadly. She hadn't seen Molly in such a long time. Since before she left. She knew that this wasn't far from the truth.
Trent squeezed her hand protectively and reassuringly.
"Then let's thank God we met babe." Trent says momentarily taking his eyes off the road to catch Kylie's eyes in his.
She could see the utter truth and vulnerability laced under his normally confident façade.
She made sure to offer a small smile and nod back to him before his eyes looked back towards the road.
Kylie never really thought about what would have happened if her and Trent had never met. She honestly never wanted to think of the alternative. If Trent had never pulled Kylie into the janitors and tore her whole façade in two. He immediately saw through her. What was normally opaque to any normal person, was transparent to Trent.
To others her problems we hidden behind a brick wall. To Trent, hidden by a window.
He found the window into her soul. She doesn't know how he did it.
"How did you know?" Kylie asked in a slight whisper, barely audible.
"Know what?"
"Know about everything. David, me, my family. I hid it so goddamn well." She said her mind racing at a thousand miles an hour. "You said it was because I winced when someone bumped me but I know that isn't true."
Trent's faces went pale and his knuckles cracked and tightened about the steering wheel. He was visibly upset.
"I once walked into a classroom once and you were in there applying makeup to a bruise on your cheek. That was my first clue. Then when you were bumped into and you winced, I knew."
"So you didn't just assume?"
"No. Not exactly.."
"Oh." She said semi disappointed.
"Are you mad?" He asked carefully examining her face for emotion.
"No. I-i just thought you figured it out by yourself. Like we had that connection from the start."
"We did. Even though you didn't know me, you still listened to my advice and ran away with me! Look what happened out of that! Our love is out connection. I don't know how long you've felt it but I felt it as soon as I grabbed you into that closet. It hurt me so bad to see you with James but I know he was what was right for you at the time." Even without looking, Kylie could sense the tears welling up in his eyes. She too had tears prickling over.
She (more like her body) chose for this moment for her to sneeze twice. Her sneezes, powerful but also dainty at the same time. Two high pitched sneezes rang out making Trent laugh and the sadness dissipated as the both laugh at the funny and awkward timing of the sneezes.
