Sienna locks eyes with me, one hand on the wheel, one fiddling with the volume dial, turning the music down.
"I know this one field, a little ways out from the city. Quite exquisite, I don't know much about here. But, when I first moved to New York I drove by and had to get out. The stars were so beautiful. It was hard to leave." She smiles, keeping her eyes on the road. The sun sets a few minutes later, the sky looking tye-dyed in swirling shades of purple and orange.
We arrive at the field and I know it's the one because it feels like magic roaring through the car once we arrive. My blood bubbling and my cheeks flushing I look at her and my eyes droop instinctively to her lips.
She moves over and cups my cheek. Before I can debate kissing her, my whole body gravitates to her. I don't even know her; but for some reason it feels as if we've been together for centuries.
Our lips fit together so perfectly and butterflies rupture through my body in overwhelming waves of bliss. I couldn't pull away if I tried, after a while she pulls away herself and laughs softly.
"Quite the kisser, are you?" She teases.
I blush harder and bite my lip gently, a nervous habit. "This place is really gorgeous," I reply, glancing out the window.
"It's not the only things that's gorgeous here, love." She coaxes me.
I smile and take her hand. I want to know her, I want to learn her wants, her needs. I've known her for a day and she's already been treating me better then Luna had. Ever.
"I don't know what it is, but I want to know everything about you," I voice my thoughts, almost as if to myself. My index finger traces her lips as I talk.
She smiles,"I feel the same way."
She drives me back home and just before I open the car door she grabs my sleeve, "wait!" She pauses,"here's my number." She kisses my cheek gently and drives off, leaving me feeling as if I'm floating.
I enter my apartment, searching for the light switch and before I can find it there's a hand already there.
"Where the hell have you been Belle? I've been worried sick!" Luna's voice echoes through the apartment and I feel as small as one could possibly feel.
"With a friend." I state dully, knowing that's not a good enough answer.
"Who? You just moved here you don't know anyone," she says slowly, and I know she's right. I don't know anyone. . . other than Sienna, and I wish she was here. What am I saying? I don't even know her. You want to know her. . . My conscious adds.
I want happiness, that's all, I just, I want to be happy. No matter what, it feels like I'm running from someone, somebody. I hate it. I'm constantly choking on my own throat and searching for an escape.
I return to reality and look at Luna dead in the eyes and my lips form such a hard line they throb. A sudden thought hits me. I don't want her here.
"Get the fuck out of my apartment before I call security. I'm fed up with your bullshit Luna!" My lungs fill with anger.
She takes several steps away from me, looking taken aback, and grabs her bag, fleeing the room like she wished she hadn't come. I can only assume she's shocked that for once I haven't been my forgiving self, after all she's put me through I'm not the same girl I was.
I pull my phone out and text Sienna.
Me: Hey. This is Belle Rose.
Her: You don't wait the three days huh?
Me: I was going to but then I remembered I wasn't classy. . .
Her: That's alright. I'm not classy either.
Me: Well why don't we fix that? Meet me at the StarBucks by my apartment?
Her: Wouldn't miss it.
Me: See you then.
I put my phone down feeling horrible, why did Luna have to always get in the way of things?
The door flies open revealing Luna's dark form in the corridor.
"How did you get in?" I shout.
"I had a key from when Emma lived here," she whispers.
"I love you, Belle. I'm sorry for everything. Please don't be mad," she says quickly in what sounds like one breath.
"I think you need to leave." My voice is quiet, full of pain full of anything except joy.
"Okay." She turns to leave once more, I grab her shoulder. She turns around with hopeful eyes.
"I want my key back," I snap, holding my hand out, she hesitates and drops it in my hand.
"Good-Bye Belle." Her voice cracks as the words leave her lips like a death sentence. She closes the door and it's like a string of yarn clips with the closing of the it.
"Bye Luna," I mumble to myself knowing she's too far gone to hear.
I think we just broke up.
