That Predicted Love Story (Princeton Fanfic)

Chapter 7

I heard someone knock on my door. It sounded faint and thought over. I stayed in my room for a little thinking twice as whether or not I should answer it. I heard a sigh behind it and I knew who it belonged to. As I got up to answer the door, something came rushing in. I felt faint and alive at the same time. 'What does he want?' That's all I kept asking myself. Would I be able to control my tears?

I opened the door in time cus he was just about to go. It was Prince, I was right. At first we stood there in utter silence. None of us would dare speak. He paced my room then sat on the desk chair. As he spun on the chair, I felt me getting hot. He stopped spinning and stared at me. I don't know what I was thinking or if I was even thinking at that stage, but I just let it all out. My eyes betrayed me. I couldn't help it. Knowing the guy that I was crazy about was in the same room as me, after what happened, killed me.

He ran towards me and let me fall into his arms. I couldn't stop, I wouldn't. Not until I knew that we could do this again or even forget the things he told me them days. He still didn't say anything. He kept silenced.  I let my hands play with his curls.i felt calmer. I liked how he knew I had to think and vent alone. But, it wasn't silence for long. I had calmed down and the sniffles reduced. He pushed my body away from his gently. Our eyes met once more and it seemed less hurt. It seemed, happy. He was going to say something, but he couldn't bring himself to say it. He took a big breath, as if to indicate what he was about to say wasn't going to be easy. I didn't care what it was, because in that moment, I was having a conversation with his eyes.

"Eh, errm. I don't know how to say this. I don't even know if you feel the same way. But, I still like you.'

As soon as he said that last sentence, I woke up. What did he say? Did he really say that? My heart was beating uber fast. Not cus I was shocked and surprised, but because I was happy and relieved to know that he hadn't forgotten me yet. A smile spread across my face. I felt so crazy and in love. I couldn't help it. This was a feeling that I've read about and seen in movies and others, but now, in this moment, feeling that same way, it isn't cheesy and sickening after all. It's the best thing imaginable. I had to tell him how I felt. I had to tell him I felt the same way and, and. I gotta stop smiling. "Really? That's great cus I like you too!" I could hear my voice going high and happy and my face always smiling and just looking awake and a like a new person.

"Haha. Look, errm, am sorry that I didn't fight for what we had. I should've fought and what you mean to me is way different from what the band mean to me. I don't go sleep thinking about them, I don't wake up and wonder how they slept. I don't ever wanna be away from you and if that means leaving the band, then I'll do it."

Was he crazy? Is he crazy? But who am I to stop him? He basically said he would exchange fame for me! I don't wanna be an obstacle in the crazy train. Does he really sleep with thoughts of me? I didn't know what I was thinking. I didn't know why I was still there near him, letting him control my emotions and wrap a string around it and claim it and pull on my heart. All I knew was I liked being there, I liked knowing that there was a guy who wasn't afraid to tell me the truth.

Am I  crazy?

I smiled. I just smiled, cus there was nothing else I can do besides float and be accepted in heaven. He held my hands and the conversation with his eyes continued. They weren't hurt anymore. The mystery that I was trying so hard to unfold, opened to me and revealed itself. You couldn't ask for a better gift. He smiled too. He finally joined my world. As he bit his bottom lip, I could taste the juice that was inside it. I wanted to. He leaned forward and so did I. I kept on smiling. I couldn't stop. The roller coaster was going to start again and this time, I prepared for ride, the screams, the end.

If we wanted it to end.
