AN:Was I missed? I told you guys I would update last night but I got home and fell asleep then tonight I had to babysit my future nephew 💀 I hope you guys enjoy it! 💕
"I love you," he says
But love
Love is like a game of Roulette
It spins the barrel round and round
Hoping it gets a chance to spit rounds
It doesn't care the target
It would be happy piercing through anything
To see a look of pure agony
Fuels the evil that rides through its vein
Its ability to kill can't be tame
So what should she say?
Her temperature rise when he looks at her
She st-stutters over he- her words
Losing control of herself.
Nothing has felt like this before
So she says
I
Love you too.
And just like that love has chosen its next victim
Click! Bang!
Her eyes closed shut thinking her fate was chosen
But her she' breathing
And it's him lying in his own lies
Because love is roulette
And the bullet isn't a gamble"
Silence occupied the small space after the soft voice spoke her heart. Sparsely, the sounds snapping grew louder. The girl slowly opened her eyes to see the crowd commending her for her bravery on open mic night stage. Her heels clicked against the staircase as she walked down. The smell of marijuana invaded her nostrils causing her body to fiend for a smoke. In the corner of the club, she watched a small fire illuminate off the lighter as a man bought the blunt to his lips. She slowly walked over, gently grabbing it from his hands and inhaling the smoke. Her muscles instantly relaxed and her mind drifted off into another world. The vibrations from her back pocket caused her to come back to reality, handing over her high, she quickly answering the phone. The thought of looking at the caller id slipping her mind.
"Hello?" Y/N tries to talk over the soft melody of Lauryn Hill's voice playing in the background.
"Can we talk?," The familiarity of the person on the other end cause Y/N to roll her eyes. She held the phone in her hand examining the contact name before pressing her fingers against the red end button. The phone went right in the comfort of her back pocket.
The beat of the next song caused Y/N to sway her hips and nodded her beat with the rhythm. The scenery caused her to clear head and live in the moment before having to step back into reality of a dead relationship.
The hands of a mysterious man gripped her waist helping her to move to the sultry music. "Trouble in paradise?" The coolness of his breathe sent a chill down her spine, cooling down her neck that was heated from his touch. A soft smile spread across her lips as her hand reach behind her and caressed his neck. "I guess you can say that."
-
Her laughter bounced off the walls of the busy Waffle House waiting for his many jokes to stop. The loud laughter dwindled into giggles. His bright brown eyes stared at her smile, taking in her beauty.
"What?" Y/N turned away to block him from viewing her red tinted cheeks.
"It's just you. Your beauty, your style, your poetry is just...is just... damn." His eyes traveled down her face landing on her lips that spoke words that so eloquently captured her emotions.
A brief chuckle escaped her lips before the words flowed out. "I've been writing since I was 12. Was always the quiet type so the pen became my ear to listen to what I had to say. Slowly built up the confidence to perform my poetry and I got a lit-..." Y/N stopped mid sentence glancing down at her phone only to capture her reflection and the words 'Blair Baby😍❤️' glaring back at her. Her fingers twiddle together hoping that it would make her decision come faster.
"Maybe I should go... She's just going to keep calling me." Her body seemed to have decisions of it's own as she began grabbing her things to leave. Her heart and mind wanted to stay but she also knew in her mind that it wasn't right. The sound of her saying 'she' instead of 'he' left the man with a perplexed look as he watched her stand up. His hand quickly grabbed hers before her feet could walk any further.
The noisy restaurant seemed to quiet down and disappear as he just stare at her one more time. "She?"
Her lips acted as a gate to keep her laughter from escaping. "Yes Mr. Mysterious, a she."
"Keith. My name's Keith and I'm thinking maybe you should sit your ass down and take this free meal." 'Blair Baby 😍❤️' flashed on the screen again indicating that Y/N had missed 17 calls. The thought of getting free food seemed to outweigh her desire to fix her broken relationship.
She slid her way back in front of the man and smiled delicately. " Say no more."
Your hand on my hand
And my other hand wrapped around your neck
As the light from the lamppost guides our lips to each other
My lips and your lips finally touch
And my eyes instantly close and I see something like never before.
It's happiness and a future with you starring in it with.
My eyes open and yours do too.
And the smile in your eyes matches the one on my lips.
I'm so engulfed in your presence that my presence doesn't exist
All because your hand is on my hand and I feel that feeling too.
