Merde, I'm running late; even if I go max speed on my bike I will still not make it on time and for my first day of my Terminale.
*phone rings with Beyonce's song sandcastle as a ringtone*
I try to get my phone will racing on the highway to school, and luckily there's a traffic light up in front in for me to be able to stop safely. "hey love! sorry I couldn't answer you earlier before you tell me anything I am on my way to school my alarm didn't work and..."
"Leo, we need to talk", Tom says with a cold tone.
In our entire year of this relationship, I have never heard Tom this serious, and even a very cold tone of voice. "Sure thing Tom, everything okay?'
"Yeah... just come fast to school you're almost going to be late in your final year of high school", Tom replies. his tone just brings me insecurity of how far can we can take our relationship. "sure thing I'll see you asap, love you", I reply; "Love you" Tom says back to me.
My mind went to a hole of thought in which was a recapitulation on where I could have fucked up something, probably in our last date or the day we slept together, maybe he wasn't ready? or probably I'm not even ready?!
I quickly snap of it thanks to the horn of a trucker immediately banging that tedious sound as the green light was changing, "Déplacez-le, pas tous nous, la Journée entière, vous savez" spoke the guy with a stupidly long beard, "parle-moi de ça" I replied and speed up as fast as I was legally able. I still had around 10 minutes out of the entire 57 minutes that took me to go from my home in Tilly all the way to Lycée Jacques Prévert. I can see the time in my google glasses in which I knew it was a stupid idea to look at the time rather than the road, although I just went for it and I saw that it was 8:30 am, 30 minutes before school starts. I wonder, Tom knows that I can space out sometimes with time but worrying me that much...? What is he up to?
Those 10 minutes left of the road I made them into 5 speeding it up a little bit over the limit. I couldn't believe it that I was capable of graduating 2 years earlier with my boyfriend Tom, and today was the first day! I couldn't be more excited, while parking my bike Tom came around and helped me securing my bike, "took you long enough" Tom said with a sarcastic tone, the usual Tom, "the teleporters that were selling a couple of block from my house ran out of stock so I headed to do the normal and boring way", I replied. "Everything okay Tom? you told me that you needed to talk to me about something" I told him will making direct eye contact to see if I could at least catch some kind of emotion or something that could be prepared me for what is coming.
"Oh yeah about that", Tom says while taking something from his back pocket, "Happy to year anniversary Leo", "Fuck! I completely forgot about our two years anniversary" I said before realizing that I actually said that rather than just having it as a thought. "Leo, it's fine I know you always forget about time, thankfully not space or you would have never been in this reality", he replies like before but there's something that makes him look extremely sexy and sweet; before he can say anything else I kiss his soft lips with that taste of strawberry lip balm flavor that remind him every time I can that I crazily love that flavor.
"you know that being with you is already my gift Leo, You don't have to worry about that" he replies while gently touching my chick with the backside of his palm giving me that feeling of comfort and safety, gosh I really love him. "Je t'aime pour toujours", I say to him trying to sound like an old french movie. "C'est gentil, mais ton accent américain t'abandonne", Tom replies while trying to kiss me, just as I can feel Tom's breath getting closer to me almost tasting the strawberry that turns me crazy; the bell rings rather early, 10 minutes earlier to be more precise."That's weird", Tom says as he pulls away from me. my mind goes around wondering why destiny has to be against me and tease me so bad with such a beautiful boyfriend and not being able to kiss him for a second time, "well I think I'll give you your gift in Biology class", Tom says before giving me a quick kiss before entering the building with all the other students, but I always knew which one was Tom, for the super awesome aqua blue hair he has that made him stand up from the rest.
