Pure Soul

Part 4

Darkness... Black is all you see. You turn right, then left. You look up and down. Still black... You struggle to stay calm and decide to move a bit, when suddenly...
"Y/N... i love you so much",- he whispers...
"Andy?",- you whisper,- "Andy!!"
"Stay... Stay with me...",- he says.
"Andy! Im here!",- you shout.
"Please dont leave",- he cries.
"Andy please where are you?",- you panic tears in your eyes.
"Y/N. Im sorry",- he whispers again.
You dont hear him any more. With a hopeless voice you shout his name.
"ANDY!!"...
You open your eyes and jump from your bed...
You look around, sigh, try to calm down...
"It was a dream... Just a dream...",- you whisper.
You look at your clock. 6 am.
You decide to  take a hot bath instead of shower so you turn the water on, throw a bathbomb in the water and lay down in it. The blue color of the water makes you feel comfortable. You close your eyes and imagine those baby blue eyes, that perfect smile... Why did he say "im sorry" in your dream? What does it mean? Whatever it is you decide to ignore it right now. Its monday, it means you can finally see Andy. You take your phone and text Kelly.
-"Will he come today?"
-"IDK. He promised right?"
-"Not school. Just meeting"
-"Then youll see him today"
-"Yeah. Will u come over? Dad has a night shift wont be back until 9"
-"Ok"
-"U have the keys. Im taking a bath".
---
Kelly comes over. You two decide what to wear amd weather to wear Andys scarf or not. What if somebody recognizes it? And what if he doesnt want anybody to? So you just put it in your bag. You decide to wear blue jeans, grey converse and a sweater with white, grey and black stripes.
You reach school and... Yeah... He did not come...
The whole day at school without him seemed pretty rough.
Finally. The last lesson is over. You and Kelly pack your bags and get ready to go out when suddenly Miriam crosses your way.
Oh god, no... The most popular bitch at school. Everybody dreams about getting in her pants. But not everybody has the opportunity. Only the most popular ones.
"Hey guys",- she smiles. Typical her. Smiling but biting with every single look and word.
"Hey",- you and Kelly say at the same time.
"Aww, Y/N, are you alright? I heard some guys from our school attacked you. Oh, so good Andy was there to save you. Im so lucky to have someone like him by my side",- she says with a bitchy smile. You just stare at her, and Kelly stares at you.
"What do you mean?",- finally Kelly asks.
"Oh. You didnt know?",- says Miriam,- "he asked me to be his girlfriend few days ago. By the way",- she comes closer,- " he is a perfection in bed".
You cant take it any more. You push Miriam and run away. Kelly runs after you. You get out of school and continue running. When you finally cant run any more you start to jog and turn your head to see if Kelly is after you. But suddenly you bump into someone.
Ashley..
"Woah. Hey",- he says surprised,- "why are you running are you okay?". He seems worried. Just then Andy and Kelly join you at the same time. You and Kelly are breathless. Andy and Ashley just stare at you with confused looks.
Finally Kelly looks at Ashley and smiles.
"Oh. Ash. I mean. Ashley. Hey",- she looks funny right now.
"Hey. Kelly right",- he smiles back.
"Yup",- she says.
"Okay",- Ashley giggles,- "yeah you can call me Ash its what everybody does. So why were you running?"
And again they both have the same confused looks. Andy looks you in the eyes. You notice he is worried. You struggle not to let tears come down your eyes.
You just open your backpack, take out his scarf and hand it to him.
"Your scarf. Hope you enjoyed your time with your grandma",- you say without looking at him.
"Thanks",- he says and slowly takes it in his hands. Kelly and Ash look at you wondering how to respond.
"We have to go Kel",- you look at her.
"Hey wait",- Ash speaks,- "we actually wanted to go to the beach. Buy ice creams maybe. Will you... join us?".
You look at Kelly. You know she likes him.
"You go. I have things to do",- you smile.
"Not good, but if you want to. Andy?",- Ash looks at Andy but he still has his eyes on you.
"I will walk Y/N home",- he nearly whispers in his deep voice. It makes you shiver.
"Okay. See you later guys",- Ash speaks again, looks at Andy with a serious look and leaves with Kelly. You stay alone together.
"I will go home alone dont worry",- you look down and try to walk away when he takes your hand and says.
"Y/N, what happened?"
You avoid his eyes as you dont want him to see your eyes wet.
"What are you doing to me?",- you unwillingly whisper.
He comes closer and takes your face in his hands.
"I think the same you are doing to me. I cant stop thinking about you",- he whispers again.
You finally look at him. He sees your tears and wipes them away. You let your foreheads touch and speak quietly.
"Can i ask you?".
"Yeah..",- he says.
"Promise to be honest",- you say looking him in the eyes.
"I promise",- he whispers. You want to touch his lips, feel his breath on your neck....
"Did you ask Miriam to be your girlfriend?",- you speak quietly and he pulls away a little.
"What?",- he whispers.
"You want me to repeat?",- you stay calm
"No..",- he says,- "i did not".
Seems like he is telling the truth. Okay..
"Did you sleep with her?",- you ask without hesitation carefully examining his eyes.
Silence... He looks disappointed..
"Yeah",- he says looking away.
Thats it. Thats enough. You are ready to run away again. But you are too weak to just take and run away from him. Tears run down your cheeks.
You turn away.
This time he says not looking at you.

"That was before the night in front of your house Y/N, i swear. I was drunk and that was just one night stand. I dont know what happened to me but i think... I... Y/N, i...",- you look at each other. You really hope he is telling the truth, but how can you trust him? What if you are his one night stand too? You dont want to have those thoughts. You feel that you are deeply in love with him. Ever since the first day you met him.
"Andy, i....",- you try to speak but he cuts you off.
"Give me a chance, Y/N, please. I dont wanna lose you",- he takes your face in his hands again.
Well.... what can you do? Nothing but surrender yourself to him.
You touch his cheek. So warm. You lean closer, feel his breath on your cheeks. Your lips just touch his and you see him closing his eyes waiting for you to do that again. You dont close your eyes, you just touch his lips with your fingers. They are so soft. He doesnt open his eyes. You have your other hand on his chest and you feel his heart beating fast. But your heart beats faster.
You finally close your eyes and kiss him.
You lose yourself in that kiss. He wraps his strong arms around you tightly like he never wants to let you go.
When you finally pull away he looks at you again and whispers
"You are mine. I will protect you until my last breath you hear me?"
You just nod and bury your face in his neck.
