We met the next day,The day after tomorrow and every day. I'd told him all about myself. He'd listen to me so patiently. Sometimes I'd burst into tears while telling him about my stories and he'd come forward and wipe my tears.
Everytime he touched me I felt chills all over my body. The chills left me startled but at the same time the touch also felt like home.
It's Wierd you know. When the deep connection happens, you can say by the way you feel when he touches you or by the way he looks at you. Because everytime he looked at me I felt like the most beautiful girl on the earth.
He used to do everything that'd make me smile. He was a perfect friend. He'd give me as much happiness as possible and just like how a magician puts in feathers inside a cap and pulls out beautiful flowers from it, he'd put in my sorrows in his cap and pull out bunch of happiness. He was my magician, my Lucas.
And I knew I was falling for him. For that smile that always shined in front of me. Those legs that moved in the funniest dance steps to make me laugh. Those hands that would hold on to mine while walking so that I didn't feel like a loner. He was a dream come true. An angel dressed in human skeleton and muscles. And I was falling for him.
One day we reached school early. so we were just sitting in the lawn. It had been 2 years since we had known each other. We were living our sweet sixteen. But the school had not changed a bit. The same lawn, the same color of the building.
Suddenly he pulled my hand and
I said "what's the matter? " He said " I wanna take you somewhere. Come with me" and I followed him.
In about about a minute or two we were in front of the dance room. He led me in. I was looking at him not knowing what to do there.
He looked at my eyes and said " I want you to dance for me." Till then I'd danced for him a lot of times but everytime I did that, I felt a bit nervous if he'd like it.
So I looked back into his eyes and nodded. And then he said "let's make it different today. Why don't you teach me?"
"You mean. I'm supposed to hold you, feel those chills and still dance?" I thought to myself. But in reality I just laughed.
"Hey! That's rude. I am not that bad. Try me." He said with a smirk.
"Not that bad eh? OK then your music..come on join in." I said. He turned on the casette player. A romantic song played and he moved towards me.
I kept his hands on my waist ( God! That was intimating) and I put mine on his shoulders. Then I asked him to take a step back and then take a step forward. He complied and he was correct. He wasn't that bad. We continued those steps. But with him, those steps were heaven. I was feeling soo happy. All I ever loved was there. Him, dance and us.
What more could I ask for ?I said to myself.
And I looked at those brown eyes. The brown eyes that had brought spark in my darkest nights and as I was lost in his eyes I felt his hands tighten around my waist and suddenly his grip got better and he pulled me closer.
Just a kiss on your lips in the moonlight.
The background music was teasing us I swear!
There it was. Him, me and just some molecules of oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen and some other gases in between us.
He was staring deep into my eyes and my eyes were diving deep into his, Trying to fathom the depth of his heart through his eyes. And as we both were lost into each other ,our lips came together. His against mine.
A sudden warmth travelled through my spine and suddenly my hands were supporting his back as he held my face and kissed my lips.
There we had it. Our first kiss. And as we opened our eyes,We didn't say a word. There was nothing to say anyways. Our eyes and lips had done the talking. We just giggled.
And from then. Everything was same but everything was different too.
