The Talk

Scott's POV
I stand frozen in complete shock.
"We need to talk." Kirstie says, looking through the little crack in the door.
I sigh before letting her in. She was right..I still wasn't sure of the story, I'm just not so sure that I wanted to hear it. But I guess I had no choice.
I sit on the couch, Kirstie sitting in a lazy boy across from me.

"Why are you here, Kirstin?"

I've never called her that before..it felt odd to say.

"I came here to talk, and that's what I intend to do." She simply replied.

"Okay..." I waited for her to continue.

"Mitch came onto me..I tried to loosen my lips from his but..I couldn't." She replied.
She sounded honest, but I didn't know if she was lying..I've been told the same thing before.

"Oh please, that's pathetic.." I pause, "Honestly, what are you trying to prove right now?" I asked, burying my face in my hands.

"Oh..well I'm sorry that I love you!" She snapped out of her calm state of mind.

"And you think I don't?!" I spat, standing up from my seat. "God dammit, Kirstin!!" I cupped my hands around her face. "Ever since I landed in Texas I've tried so hard to fall out of love with you, and it just isn't working!" I cried.

I loosened my grip on her, allowing her to speak.

"Okay so you don't believe me?!" She yells, "I'm sorry that you can't trust your girlfriend!"

Kirstie's POV
I feel so infuriated and confused!
It just hurts that he doesn't believe me..
The room went silent for about 2 minutes until Scott spoke up again.

"You know..I'm starting to see why Jeremy left!" He protests, "Sometimes it would just be easier if we never even met!!" He screams furiously, sending an echo throughout the house.

My eyes watered and my lips curved into a straight line, pressed together to stop the tears from flowing.
How could he say such a thing.

"Kirst I'm-

"Still think I don't care about you?" I asked, hurt by what he had said. "Here," I paused, pulling an envelope out of my purse that read, '❤️Scott❤️'
"Take this, although you don't deserve it." I smiled sarcastically, tears streaming down my face.

And with that, I ran out of his house and drove away to my Mom and Dad's house. I think I could use some advice right now.

Scott's POV
I tried to catch her before she left, but it was too late. I felt crushed..I still don't know if I believe her if I'm being perfectly blunt with myself..but I still love her, and what I had said..was terribly wrong.
I lost my train of thought when I remembered the envelope she had handed me before she stormed out.
I open it hesitantly, afraid of what could be inside.
I unfold the sheets of paper to find song lyrics with sheet music. The top of the paper said 'Water' which I was guessing was the name of the song.
I started to read the lyrics

It's 10 past 2, still up thinking of you
If I showed you all I really want to
Would you stay, dare to push me away
I just can't return anymore

Timid heart, hide my scars
Make me stronger

I can't take this any longer
I need, I need you like water

I soon began to cry, letting out all my emotions. This song is beautiful. I then continued reading, letting tears drop onto the page

It's on the tip of my tongue
I'm not asking for much
Just your love and not another
Cause your embrace keeps me warmer
Could I tell you this time
How I wish you were mine

My voice cracks, I wait for it to pass
Heart beats fast for words I can't take back
And so I pray I don't drive you away Cause I'm scared of what I have to tell you

*chorus repeats*

I'll take you higher, take you high
I can make you come alive
Open your eyes, change your mind
I'll take you higher, take you high

*chorus repeats*

How I wish you were mine
How I wish you were mine
How I wish you were mine

I couldn't put into words how breathless I was after reading what Kirstie had written for me. It made we feel special..loved.
