"You smell just like vanilla, you taste like butter cream. You're filling up my senses with empty calories."

He came back for me. 

He apologized and told me it was all a mistake. 

Of course, I was still young and foolish so I believed him. 

He seemed... different though.

I didn't know if it was just the fact he now smelled like vanilla every once in awhile, despite us not having anything vanilla scented in our house, or if it was just me. 

We were walking down the street one day, his hand loosely in mine, when someone called me a name I refuse to repeat and he... 

..didn't do a damn thing. 

I nudged him and he glanced up from his phone with a confused look on his face. 

He asked what was wrong and I just sighed and told him to forget it. 

I couldn't shake the feeling of emptiness that consumed me.
