The Moon and Her Sun

Twelve: Dreams Can Come True

As we got to the party we walk into this house. Some people are already outside just to hang out. Guess the party is getting intense. We all walk inside standing by the door to check out at who's here.

I look around to see who is here. So far it's just a pool of unfamiliar faces. I wonder if there is any who goes to our school. Like at all parties, there are four types of people at this party.

The people who talk shit about other people that are at the party. The people who are making out like there's no tomorrow. The group that dances like there is no tomorrow. And then there's my group, where we don't have a clue at what we are doing so we just stand there.

We all still stand by the door, until two jocks come in pushing us towards the people who are dancing. Carla gets pulled into the crowd. She just dances along with them. She mouths to me "Oh my god."

I mouth back "I know. I'm a go get a drink."

I stray away from Ciro and Carla who are dancing with the group of people. I walk to the kitchen and once I get there just see what there is to drink.

My choices are alcohol, soda, or water. Well, I don't want to get drunk so no alcohol for me. Nor do I have a sweet tooth for some soda. After all, I guess I will be drinking water.

I grab a red cup so everyone thinks that I'm drinking alcohol. I grab a bottle of water and pour it into the red cup. As I'm pouring the water I hear a voice. "You're not fooling anyone you know." I turn my head around to see the spawn of satan along with her demons by her side.

"So what I don't care," I say back to her. I give her that "Bitch Face" so she would just leave me the hell alone. Like always Justine had something to say back.
"Oh, honey turns out you do care. Or else you wouldn't be pouring water into a red cup." As Justine finishes her sentence I hear her Demon, Christene, say "Yeah."

I decide to clap back by starting to attack Christene. "It's sad that you have to say something, Christene, in order to prove that you're just as bad as Justine." I give her a smirk after I'm done. I know that I got to her when her face goes all sad.

The other demon, Aaliyah, decides to comfort her. "It's okay it doesn't matter what she says. She's a nobody."

I roll my eyes at how pathetic they are. Trying to comfort and support each other when the whole school knows that they all don't like each other.

"Aaliyah is right." Justine says to me "You will never be something."

I shrug my shoulder. I then see Ciro come towards me, feeling excited at what I'm going to do next. Once he finally reaches me I say "Hey babe." I then grab his face lightly and kiss him in front of Justine, Christene, and Aaliyah.

As I kiss Ciro I assume their faces are in aww. It feels nice to kiss Ciro, Either Ciro is a good kisser or I am. I then pull back, Ciro then gets to my side and I cling on to him."I may not be something to you, Justine." I say "But I will always be something to him."

I smile at her and kiss him on the cheek. Justine furious, and like the little baby that she is walks away along with her minions. Ciro then faces me. "Wow, today's a first for the both of us huh?"

"Yeah, whatever," I say. He then pours himself a drink, of alcohol, and takes me to a room.

***

As we get into the room, Ciro closes the door and locks it. The room is very dark and the bed looks like a full size. The closet has nothing inside of it.

"I can't believe what you did." Ciro says "The fact that you stood up for Justine was incredible."

"Thanks, I don't know what just got into me. It was exhilarating." I laugh out of the fact that I was a different person from when I stood up for myself.

Ciro then walks up to me a kisses me. He grabs my chin which lifts up my head. As he kisses me I feel this adrenaline rush.

It was something that I have been craving forever since I laid my eyes on him. He lightly pushes me onto the bed and gets on top of me.

He kisses me again. This time with a little for passion. It feels that he just wants to be a part of me. That without me, he is nothing, and I like that feeling.

Ciro then pulls away and takes off his shirt. As he does so I see his body. Surprisingly he has abs and sits up and pull him in to kiss me once again.

As I'm kissing him it feels more electric. I forget about the world. Forget about Justine. Forget about my family. Forget about the fact that I'm dying. All I can focus my mind on is that I am with Ciro. That he is mine and I am his.

Ciro pulls away and starts to kiss my neck. And it feels so good. He was so vulnerable, yet careful when kissing my neck. I grab his hair and pull him up so he can kiss me.

We turn over and are on our sides. Ciro grabs me so I can be closer to him. He then moves his hands to my lower back and puts his hands under me.

The feel of his hands touching my skin feels as if I was being touched by an angel. We then turn over, still kissing, and this time it on top of him. He then takes off my shirt and everything starts coming back to me.

I pull away and I get scared. Ciro is now touching by my stomach. He then sees my button that I have on my stomach in order for me to eat. Shit stupid cancer.

I'm nervous at this point that I'm literally shaking while on top of him. As he finishes looking at my button "Why'd you stop?" he asks.

"What do you mean 'why'd I stop?" I ask him.

"Yeah why?" he asks seeming like it was a simple question he could have ever asked me.

I then know why I stopped kissing him and tell him. "Cause you took off my shirt."

Ok" he shrugs "And?"

"And you saw my button I thought you would want to stop. I thought it was too much for you."

"Are you kidding me? That button is part of you. And I love every part of who are. Button or no button I will always love you."

I don't know why, but what he said got to me. All the time that I've had cancer and this button I thought no one would love me for who I am. That someone would freak out once they have seen what I had underneath.

All of a sudden I cry. I get off of him and start bursting into tears. At this point, I feel like I look crazy. "Why are you crying," Ciro asks.

"It's just I thought no one would ever love me when they say that they've seen my button," I say Can this night get any worse than it already is.

That was until I hear sirens coming from far away and then everything changes, including the mood I and Ciro were in. Carla barges in "Come on we have to go. Cops are on their way."

Then I remember when Carla barges into the room that I have my shirt off.
