The sound of loud voices alarmed me. I got up off my couch , my feet hitting the icy wooden floor.
The curtains were slightly opened and I saw Daniel with the boys and Ronnie . I stuck a finger at them and chuckled opening the door.
I felt Ronnie's warm hands placed on my cheeks.
"hello love. " he smiled .
"hi" I eagerly replied.
He removed his hands and held out a paper.
"The guys are going on tour."
My smile dropped.
"5 months , we leave tomorrow morning." he added.
I turned to James who now had his head down looking at his feet.
"that's..great!"
I forced a smile, making their faces relax into a smile as well. Daniel's cheeky one that brought up his lip piercing to his cheek made mine disappear.
The thought of not having them around made me feel hollow, and for five months ! But what hurt the most, James .
" So we'll give you guys room to be with each other before our big day tomorrow."
Ronnie opened his arms to embrace me.
We were left alone now.
James was still standing there, his eyes gloomy.
" You wanna go inside ?"
He nodded.
His black sweater sleeve grabbed for my bare arm .
I felt his warmth vibrating over my cold skin. His eyes met mine for a few seconds then back at the white living room.
We sat down on the couch, my legs crossed with my hands on my knees. James , looking straight out the window. His side profile , visible to my eyes.
" I'm gonna miss you." he fiddled his fingers , giving a glance at me.
My eyes dropped down to my hands.
" yea , I'm gonna miss you too."
I didn't want him to go, but I didn't want to interfere with his dreams. James is very important to me and I would hate to see him disappointed. I love him.
" What's on your mind babe."
I broke the gap between us and rested my head on his lap. He played with my hair , relaxing me a bit.
" Do you remember when you mocked Daniel ? " a smile appeared on my face.
" What is that, is that cinnamon!? " We said in unison due to the fact that I always remind him.
" Yes, I do."
His warm hand running along my cheek .
" Your skin..its so soft. " his eyes gazed.
I grabbed a hold of his hand and placed a kiss. His smile , one of a kind, it made everything better. I sat up beside him and gave him a kiss again.
"Where will you guys go?"
He faced me, looking down at my lips.
"Some dates are here, some in Europe, and Australia. "
"Australia? Mom's gonna be happy to see you all."
I smiled as I thought of her, when she first met me she was shocked 'her' James was bringing home a girl. It was also the first time James confessed his love.
"I love you." I remember his voice very low. He was shy and bubbly. I loved it. ❤
