Junior Year .

12

As I was walking home with tears in my eyes I realized that , this happened for a reason . We broke up for a reason .
I walked into the house . No one was around so I figured they left . I went up to my room and laid on my bed trying to understand what happened and why ?
" God please , just show me a sign . I need to know why he broke up with me " I said aloud . As I put my head down waiting for a sign I heard my phone ring I picked up my phone and it was Dylan . At first , I didn't really pay attention to the call so I just texted him telling him I would call him later , but then I realized...
That's my sign . He wants me to be with  Dylan , but I love him I don't want to move on . You know what I'm going to do is just wait for him like he is
waiting for me . I called Dylan back .
Dylan: I'm glad you called back , I need to talk to you abou-
Me: what do you want ? 
Dylan : I wanted to talk about us ...
Me: There isn't an us to talk about .
Dylan: Can I just stop by and talk to you . Please ? I won't stay long .
Me: okay , I'll see you later
I hung up .

*10 minutes later*
I heard the door bell ring . I ran downstairs and opened it.
" hey beautiful " Dylan said
" Hi " I said gesturing him to come inside .
" Do you want something to drink " I asked waking to the kitchen
" yeah just my usual " he said smiling sitting down at the island .
I reached in the fridge and got the orange juice and poured it in 2 cups . I stood up across from him .
" so what did you want to talk about " I asked
" well , I wanted to know why we broke up " he said . I looked around trying to make up an excuse , but I didn't have one . I guess I was stuck up in this fantasy about Dave and I, I wasn't paying attention to the real world . I guess maybe Dylan and I are meant to be , but not now . I need time , I need time to think about everything . Just lead him on , then tell him you aren't ready to get back together . No, don't do that . Ill figure something out just tell him you don't know it was the accident okay ? Okay ...

" I didn't know what I was thinking the accident just got to me " I said looking down . " So what now ? Do we get back together ? try again ? " he asked grabbing my hand softly . " I guess we could try again , but we can start as friends ."  I said pulling my hand away ." Okay I can do that , and we have a project due next Monday in Mrs. Knott's class ." he said " Wait , you arent in that class and my partner is -" " me " he said cutting me off . " Since when ?" I said bewilderedly " Since Monday, when I joined the class " he said smiling " but how , you did terrible on the assessment test " I said walking to sit down next to him . " True , but I requested a retake at the beginning of the year because our schedule was so off and I didn't know if I would be able to hang out with the one I love ." " I aced it ." he added " Well we have a project due lets get to it !" I said running upstairs . " He slow down !" he said following me . I dashed through the door landing on my bed, with in the 2 seconds of me laying on my bed Dylan dashed through rapidly tripping on one of my heals landing on me . Our faces were unbelievably close for a moment it felt like old times . All the memories of us chasing through my mind , I just got stuck in the moment . He leaned in for a kiss . Still in the moment I leaned in too. His lips were soft and vulnerable ,but after 5 seconds I realized , it was too fast we were going too fast . I moved away in a fright. "  I'm sorry that shouldn't of happened , I was just caught up- " I cut him off . "  In the moment ? I know me too , lets just work on this project " I said going to my desk to get my writing utensils . " Okay so what is this project about , exactly ? " I asked sitting down on the floor " Um , we just have to show the before and after effects of dead raccoon ." He said " I never got to dissect it , I remember we had a chance to look at it but I never I dissected it . " I said laying down on my stomach . " we'll do the before and I'll do some of the after but I need to get more information tomorrow . " he said
"okay " I said

* 30 mins later *

We walked downstairs . I opened the door " Thank you for letting me come over , I can finally sleep tonight " he chuckled " You're welcome , see you tomorrow ? " I asked " Yeah "
We hugged . I felt something, nothing big but something ( not his penis , chemistry ) " Bye " he said leaning in for a kiss . " Not yet " I said turning my head " Some day just not now ."
