Bought At An Auction

What are we

We sat down at our table and talked for a while, getting to know each other I actually felt relaxed. After dinner, we headed to the mall.

"Max I don't want to get anything and if you're going to buy me stuff go to a good will or something cheap" I say. Watching him clench his fist.

"Amelia it's my money and I want you to feel special okay so let me do this pick out some things for me please" he pleads looking me in the eye. I sigh walking over to the first store in the mall after a while I started trying in clothing and doing weird poses as I would walk out. I was actually having fun and I think Max seems happy as well. After a while of shopping I got 14 tops, 14 bottoms, 4 dresses, a bunch of undergarments and 16 pairs of shoes. We walked to the car, placing the bags in. I should thank him so he doesn't see me as greedy or anything grabbing Max's hands, I looked him in the eye.

"I had fun, thanks for taking me out of the apartment," I said smiling. We stood there for a while as I felt his hand reach up cupping my cheek. My heart skipped warmth flooding through me. His eyes were full of an emotion I couldn't comprehend. We leaned towards each other and we were about to kiss. I can't believe what's going on. Closing my eyes I relaxed his smell intoxicating. I should not want to he bought me but part of me was falling and falling hard.

"Yo I know you" some guy yelled behind us. I watched as Max blinks a bit and pushed me away. It stuns me, my heart was beating so fast and I kept seeing his face so close to mine. Oh my, I can feel my face getting warm. Slowly I realized my surroundings and Max was already in the car, slowly I open the door and got in. The drive home was so awkward making my nerves go crazy. Using my shaky hand I turn on the radio. One of my favorite songs came on Lost Boy by Ruth B. I softly sang to it and got more into it, putting my heart into every word. When the song was over, we pull into the garage and walk over to the elevator.

"Amelia meet me um up there I forgot something" he mumbles running off. Oh great now he hates me and it wasn't even my fault he tried to kiss me. Standing in the elevator I watched him sit on the hood his car with his hands in his hair. As I got to the apartment I struggled carrying my bags to my room. Jumping onto the bed belly first. I felt my heart being crushed was he gonna sell me away? No he wouldn't do that. Maybe I should just leave. I cause him so much trouble and money I feel like a burden. Picking up the biggest bag I have I started throwing things into it. The question is where will I go. Will he even let me leave after all he paid for me. I finished packing turing to open my bedroom door to Max looking as if he was about to knock. "Amelia I'm sorry..... wait what are you doing" he questions. Quickly I look down at the bag.

"I feel like such a burden that maybe I should just leave. I know you bought me and all but everything's just better without me in the picture" I said tears swelling in my eyes. Why am I so upset my family doesn't want me and the man who bought me and acted so nice doesn't want me either. I wasn't even going to say goodbye. I was just going to leave this just makes it harder. I felt his hand softly grab mine and pull me into an embrace.

"Amelia everything's better with you my art is better, I sleep better, you make me laugh, and smile more than I ever have. I guess what I'm trying to say is well I don't want you to leave. In fact I don't want you to ever leave and after this year you're free to stay I don't mind because well I don't even understand my own feelings I mean I thought of you as my sister but maybe...." I didn't let him finish before I crashed my lips into his. My stomach turned what was I doing he is definitely going to push me away. I just everything he said made my heart burn. I feel him cup my cheek the kiss starting slow but soon it grew more deep and passionate. In fact I couldn't breath slowly. I pushed him away hugging his chest. Hiding my red hot face. This was my first kiss what have I done. He kissed me back though so does that mean. "Just promise you won't leave me" he said in my ear. My heart skipped and I slowly nodded my head into his chest.
