I opened my eyes only to find myself atop the girl I knew to be Amethyst; my neighbor, my friend, my crush. My body had accidentally pinned her down onto her roof. My hands were pressed out and in between her waist and arms, my butt sat just past her torso onto the beginning of her legs, but worst of all, or was it best of all, my face was practically implanted into her chest. The skin on my cheek rubbed against the cotton texture of her loose, grey t-shirt. I could tell she was wearing nothing underneath the coverage. It felt....pleasing.
As I noticed my position, I sat up, looked her in the eyes, blinked, then jerked my self backwards. My butt landed on the roof that belonged to me. Heat got to my face and I knew I was cherry red. Beat read. Eternal flame red. I shook the thought of my appearance away and arrived back at reality. I was balancing on my hands and arms which barely held me up from their shaking. For some reason I just stared at her as she sat up and stared back at me. Everything from that instant on was new. I couldn't see, I couldn't move, I couldn't breathe. I was... frozen.
Amethyst heavily breathed out as if she too, had been holding her breath. This snapped me back again, because I seemed to be zoning out a lot. I scrambled back wards on my hands. Back towards my window. Turning around I never took my eyes off her.
"Where-?" Amethyst managed to say.
"I-i go. I gotta go." Were my last words as I very much struggled to get through my window, close it, and shut the blinds. After that, I sunk down. Down to the floor.
Embarrassment.
Anxiety.
Confusion.
And worst of all:
Love.
