Christian
She stood up and so did I. "I'm sorry Vanessa. I can't hide it anymore."
She looked at me again and I thought she was going to yell but she didn't. She took a deep breath and tears formed in her eyes again.
"I'm a mess. I'm such a mess," she shrugged, shaking her head. "Then be my mess because I can help you," I held her hands but she slipped them away and turned around.
"Vanessa please," I begged, turning her back around.
I pulled her closer than I expected. Her hand landed on my chest and our lips were millimeters apart.
I stared at her lips, wanting to kiss her so bad. I leaned down a little bit more but she turned her head and stepped away.
"We can't Chris," she shook her head. "Why? Why can't we? What's stopping us?" I asked. "Chris what we had was killing us. We can't do it again because we're not getting anywhere with it," she explained.
"It'll be different this time. I know I messed up last time but please, I promise this time is gonna be different," I begged. "It's not gonna be different Chris," she lowered her voice.
"How do you know that?" An angry smiled formed on my lips. "Because we tried. We tried before and nothing worked so how are we supposed to try again? We can't." She said, wiping her cheeks.
"Please," I said again. "Chris.." She spoke in a low voice. She would keep denying me but I wouldn't stop until I had her back.
"Just answer one question for me," I said. She looked into my eyes, captivating me. I stood silent for seconds until I realized what I was going to do. "Do you want to get back together with me?"
She looked away and pushed her hair back. "Chris stop-" "Do you want to get back together with me?" I repeated. "Please just answer." I continued. "Because you act like you do but you say that you don't."
She looked at me again and shook her head. "I don't.. because it's hurting both of us."
Tears fell out of her eyes at a rapid pace. I grabbed her hand and ran us to her kitchen. "What are you doing?" She asked. I ignored her and opened the screen door and pulled her with me into the middle of her backyard, rain still pouring down.
I stopped abruptly and turned around, giving her no time to deny me as I leaned in and kissed her.
I held onto her waist as our lips softly connected. This feeling was a feeling I craved.. I craved it for a long time and I finally got it.
I pulled away but kept my face close to hers. "If you don't want to be with me again, then tell me you felt nothing when I kissed you. Tell me you didn't feel a single thing anywhere in your-"
I was cut off when I felt her lips on mine again. We moved our lips in sync with the sound of rain hitting the ground behind us. I felt her cup my face which only made me pull her close enough for our bodies to be touching.
Minutes passed and our lips were still locked. I was amazed. It felt too long since I've kissed her and this kiss was amazing. I missed it so much. The way her warm lips met mine, the way I could hold her small, perfect body as she held mine. I missed I all so much and I finally got it back.
Eventually, we pulled apart, both of us gasping for air. I rested my forehead on hers as she spoke. "I can't say that Chris. Because I still love you too."
I hugged her tight and picked her up as I did so. Her arms locked perfectly around my neck, where I felt they belonged. "I love you so much Vanessa," I said, as I set her down. "I love you too," she smiled.
She leaned up and softly kissed me again, and I didn't even think about protesting.
When we pulled apart again, she left her head on my shoulder. I kept my arms around her body as she kept her hand on my shoulder.
"Does this mean you'll be my girlfriend again?" I chuckled as I asked. "Only if it means you'll be my boyfriend again," she smiled.
We stood in our position for a few more seconds, until our attention was brought back to the door.
"Woo!" "Finally!" We turned and saw Adam with his hands around Roni's waist as they stood in the doorway of the screen door.
"About time," Adam laughed. I smiled and felt Vanessa's turn her head into the crook of my neck. "Maybe you guys should come in now before you fall in the sewers," Roni laughed.
She had a point, we were soaked.
We pulled apart from our hug and I joined my hand with Vanessa as we went back inside.
She led me upstairs and let me borrow a pair of her dad's clothes but since he also had a fast metabolism, his clothes weren't that big on me.
"I'll throw your clothes in the drier," Vanessa said, dropping my soaked clothes in a basket with her soaked clothes.
I went with her to the laundry room keeping my hands on her waist. When she finally put the clothes in, I turned her around and shortly kissed her again.
"Thank you," I said, when we pulled apart. "For everything."
