We stayed up for most of the night just chatting and giggling like two school children. When I said it felt like we'd been friends all our lives, I didn't realize how scary it was. We're practically the same person with only a few exceptions.
"Phil.. It's almost 11, I have to go," I say with a smile and surprised eyes. He giggles back at me and checks his phone. He squints at the brightness and then throws it back onto the bed. "So it is," He says with a sigh "I can walk you back if you want?".
"Oh no I wouldn't want you to get in trouble," I say quickly, waving my hands. Before I know it he grabs my wrists and pulls them down. He leans in closer to me and I feel myself going red with anticipation; I'm glad It's dark in here. What is he doing? "Listen, if I can sneak off into protected private grounds for three years and not get caught, I'm sure I can walk you down a few hallways," He says. I can feel his breath against my face sending shivers down my spine and making every hair on my body stand up. "And besides, If they can snore that loud," He gestures over to PJ and Chris, who are in the same position after 5 hours. "And not get caught.." he looks at me with one eyebrow raised, and a mischievous grin across his face. I let out a small laugh and shake my head. I whisper an okay which signals Phil to jump up. I follow along and get up as well.
He goes over to the door and slowly unlocks it before stepping out and waving me towards him. we step out and look around before seeing that the coast was clear. We start walking down the first hallway when Phil starts to talk. "PJ and Chris are perfect together aren't they? Like the way they fit together not only mentally but physically. It's like the universe put them together on purpose!" He says with enormous wonder in his voice. I can't help but stare at him and question to myself, has he found that person? Meant for him and no on else? If he has, why are they not here now? I shake the thoughts out of my head when he begins again. "I'm kind of envious of it to be honest, like I look at them and wish i had a Chris to my PJ," at this moment we both look at each other in the eye. At this moment I forget anything I was thinking at the time and get lost in every detail of his face. We stop but only shortly as we see a torch light on the floor that seems to be coming closer to us.
Phil grabs my hand and drags me back down the corridor to a closet we had passed. I feel his put his arm around me and pulls me into it roughly, so that I am against the door. I can't see anything but I know that we can't get any closer; our bodies are touching and our breaths are mixed together. His hand is on the bottom of my back and I can feel myself getting hot, with this being my first experience of being this close to an attractive boy. I put my hands on his arm and his chest, not really knowing what to do with them. We're out of breathe so that doesn't make this situation any better.. If anything it makes it way hotter. I really want to close the gap, but I know it would be weird for him because we've only know each other for 12 hours, maybe even less! But as my eyes adjust I can see him moving closer (which isn't hard because there is such little place) until our noses are touching and then he just lingers, brushing his lips ever so gently over mine, but not enough to call it a kiss though. I grip his shirt with one hand and let out a small gasp until I feel his hand move from my back to the door.. He opens it.
We tumble out making far too much noise then we should, considering we were just trying to hide. "Don't worry, he said," I say "We won't get caught, he said,". I look at Phil to which he just replies by rolling his eyes. I'm slightly annoyed with him teasing me like that, it was obvious how much I wanted him to kiss me, how much I needed his lips against mine but he dismissed that. The rest of the way we don't speak and the silence grows between us making it feel incredibly awkward. We get to my dorm and when I open the door, it smells like usual but there's no one here, the room is still, lacking in life; luckily as well, I'm not sure I trust my roommate. I step in and turn to face Phil, who is standing there not really knowing what to do with himself. He put his hand in his pockets and rocks on his heels.
"You err.. You better get back.. You don't want to get caught again," I say trying to make things less awkward then they already are but this fails as he doesn't reply straight away. He just nods and turns away. I'm about to close the door when I hear a "Hey Dan?" from the other side of the semi-closed door. I open the door again only to see that same Phil in the forest; the one that has a suggestive look and the shimmering eyes. "If I didn't know any better," he says "I would've thought you wanted to kiss me," he says and winks at me. And with that.. He was gone, down the gloomy hallways. I shut the door, trying to process what just happened. He knew I wanted him to kiss me so.. was he doing it just to get a reaction? Was it not as intimate to me as it was to him? More importantly.. Did he want to kiss me?
A/N; Hi so just a short chapter because I thought a lot happened in this alone and it didn't need anything else added to it! Hope you enjoy! Also I write on my laptop so sorry to any phone reader for the super long paragraphs.
