I laid in my bed trying to figure out a way of fixing the mess I had just made.
I hoped nobody would come in because I just wanted some time alone.
My arm began to sting from where I had been picking it.

I must have drawn blood without realising...

The room was silent.

Shockingly silent.

I was usually pretty dumb when it came to my surroundings but I knew for certain someone was watching me.

You: "Carl??"

His name echoed through the room then plummeted to nothing.
I became excruciatingly conscious.

You: "If someone's here just.. just come out."

I didn't know if I was just being paranoid or there was someone there but I certainly felt very uneasy.

???: "Sorry I didn't know anyone was here..."

I whipped my head around.
Although it was dark in the room I could clearly make out the figure.

You: "Enid, could... could I talk to you?"

She walked over to me and sat on my bed.

Enid: "I want to be honest with you."
You: "Okay..."

She pushed her hair back and cleared her throat.

Enid: "When I asked if you and Carl were dating I wasn't *cough* I wasn't asking for Ron."

Wait did she like me?

You: "Who were you asking for?"
Enid: "M... myself"

SHE LIKES ME BACK!?

You: "But... but why??"
Enid: "Please promise you won't tell anyone, I don't know what I would do if people found out."

She... I don't mind if we kept it a secret.

Enid: "I was thinking of asking out..."

Before I knew what I was saying I burst out all my inner thoughts.

You: "It's okay! I... I like you back and, and I know it won't be easy but I wouldn't mind taking that risk..."

She looked at me with a fallen expression then she fiddled with the ends of her hair trying to look anywhere but my face.

Enid: "He really loves you, you know."
You: "Wh... what do you mean?"

I was glad she changed the subjects and annoyed all at the same time.

Enid: "Yanno, Grimes... C... Carl"
You: "I know, I mean yeah I guess he does... but, but I really have no feelings for him and... and maybe once I've worked everything out we can be together I just... I just well whenever you are ready..."
Enid: "Look I don't want to be rude or anything. I just don't like you in that way.."

Oh...

I felt my entire body crush together all at once the little hope I had was pulled from me quicker than it was given.
It's not her fault.

Enid: "[Y/N], I didn't mean it in that way... I... maybe sometime in the future it could work... us but not right now I hardly know myself so having someone else would quiet literally break me..."

I grasped some air to stop myself for falling to the floor.
Adrenaline ran through my body.
I flung myself at Enid and pulled her body towards mine she felt a little awkward at first but as I loosened my grip she strengthened hers.

You: "I don't want you to do anything you aren't ready for but... I just like you... a lot..."

I felt her smile against my shoulder as we reluctantly let go of each other.
I could have hugged her all day but instead I just stared at her in the dark.

Enid: "Lets do it..."

I must have shown how taken aback I was by this comment because she began explaining hers immediately.

Enid: "I guess as the saying goes. It's now or never right? If not today then when, we are all dying slowly so... so erm... [Y/N] would you like to give this a try?"

I sprang towards her once again.
However, this time I didn't connect our bodies, it was our lips and it felt so much better than I ever imagined.

She brushed her hands through my hair and kissed me passionately.

I pulled away slowly cherishing every breath we shared.
I pushed back the hair covering her ear and leaded towards it.

You: "I could think of nothing better..."
