Sinematic(Devin Sola)

20

I lie in my bed that I haven't slept in for months. It feels so good to be back in something familiar. The familiar scent of my cat, Asher, and myself buried in its plum colored sheets. I've had these sheets for so long it's unbelievable. Dahlia is curled up in my arms her fur causing me to be warm and cozy.

 We dropped Devin off at his home, that he happens to be living with Kylie in. I can tell you that I've already cried over it. I've cried so much these past few days it's ridiculous. I just want to stop honestly. 

I roll over in my bed, closing my eyes just as my phone rings. I sigh annoyed at the fact that I was just going to let sleep take over my body.

Dev: Can you send me your address?

I furrow my eyebrow slightly, it hasn't been that long since we dropped him off, maybe two hours. 

Me: Are u going 2 come over? its 299 w taurus rd. 

I send back as a reply and lay my phone down, letting my eyes fall shut again. This time hopefully I can fall asleep. The blank space my eyelids show from covering my eyes send me into sleep. 

There's a loud knock on my door, but just one instead of multiple. 

"Yeah?" I croak out. 

"Someone is here for you." My mother's voice rings through my door. 

"Can you let them in?" I ask her, I hear her sigh outside of my door, but I don't care. 

I curl back up into my blanket that was wrapped up inside of. I hear my door open and a soft laugh come out of the person. I know the person is Devin however, only because I faintly remember a text saying he was coming over. I peek through my blanket to look at him, my eyes the only thing peeking through. 

"Hi." He whispers and kicks his shoes off. 

"I'm not home."I whisper back causing him to smile. 

"Where are you then?" He whispers back walking over to my bed and kneeling down in front of me so we're eye to eye. 

"Space." I say, a smile growing on my face. 

"Yeah? Is it fun?" He asks causing me to giggle slightly. 

"Very fun, would you like to come?"I ask. 

"I'd love too." with those words leaving his mouth I unroll myself from the blankets and scoot over so he can lay down. 

He rolls onto the bed almost rolling on top of me causing me to squeak a bit. I change the direction and start rolling on him, half my body sprawled across his. I giggle as he smiles at me doing so. I wrap the blanket around us and lay my head on him. 

"Space is nice." He whispers causing me to smile. 

"Yeah, it's better with you here. It was kind of lonely being the only one here." I reply looking up at him. 

He gives me a toothy grin making me smile, his smile just being contagious. 

I end up wrapping my arms around his neck, still laying on top of him, but our eyes at each other's level. 

"So, would you like to know what happened when I went home?" He asks me after I get situated. 

"Yes?" I whisper, a bit skeptical. 

"Well...

I walk through the door, just getting dropped off by Alex and her mom. Alex is so much different around her mom, it's weird, maybe she was just tired. I sit my few bags by the door, not bothering to walk all the way to my room to put them in. I kick my shoes off and walk over to the couch. I sit down, hearing feet pad down the hallway. 

"Devin?" A voice asks. 

"Yeah, I'm here." I reply, knowing the voice belongs to Kylie. 

"What are you doing home? I thought you weren't coming home for a few more days? How did you get here?" she asks me a bunch of questions causing me to sigh a bit. 

"Tour ended earlier than planned, we had some issues with someone that was with us and she needed hospital care so we canceled the rest of the tour. Chris wasn't happy with me either so. I got a ride home." I say staring ahead, realizing that I already almost spilt the beans. 

"Why's Chris mad at you?" She asks sitting beside me on the couch, her face filled with confusion. 

"Well,"I sigh a bit and look at her, "I kissed his girlfriend." Her eyes go wide. 

"What?" Is all she says. 

"I cheated on you." i look away, feeling ashamed of myself for not just breaking up with her before I got involved with Alex. 

"W-with Chris's g-girlfriend?" She sutters, confusion and hurt laced through her words. 

"Yes." I whisper. 

"You cheated on me, with Chris's girlfriend, so he canceled the tour?" She says obviously getting upset. 

"Pretty much yeah, when he found out he screamed at her and she hit her head and almost bled to death so we had to take her to the hospital." I reply, saddened thinking about what had happened, how hurt she was. 

"Do you- Do you not love me?" She whispers out causing me to close my eyes, tears rising up in my eyes a bit. 

I shake my head in a no manner causing a loud sob to come out of her causing a tear to slide down my cheek. I feel so terrible for hurting her this way, I didn't want to but it's the only way I can be happy.

"Just leave." She whispers out, her voice very shaky. I nod and stand, another eruption of a sob escaping her causing me to quickly walk towards the door, another tear escaping my eye socket. 

I'm so horrible for this. I should stay and console her but I can't because it will give her false hope. I grab my bags I left by the door, sliding on my shoes and going to my car. 

".. And then I texted you." He finishes telling me about what happened in the couple of hours I wasn't with him. 

"I'm sorry you felt that way." I look away from his eyes, tears rising to mine. 

"Please don't get sad, Alexis." He whispers causing me to look back at him. "I don't want to see you sad anymore, I want that giggling princess that was just in my arms." I smile lightly at his words, them seeming to be like they were in a movie. 

"There's that gorgeous smile." He whispers pressing his lips to my nose, a bigger smile rising on my face. 

"ALEX!" My door slams open and Asher screams my name, entering my room.
