Nicotine
Luca
"Why didn't we do this sooner,"
Bethany says laying on my chest and my arm around her our sweat eavaporting from our pores and into the night sky, we had been here all day laying in the cylinder.
I didn't reply to her I just let it be thinging and overthinking might I add about Mia's face as she left the reason I didn't stop the cab why didn't I do all these things and now i'm here lying with a girl after our lips were intertwined with our bodies but I didn't like this girl and who I was i hated myself for it but I let it happen. My mind flipped and thought about the last few hours and how this mess came to be.
"Where did this new persona come from Bev,"
I asked her she sat up pulling her hair behind her ears and leaning back onto the other side of the tube opposite me staring at her hands fidgeting.
"Can I have a ciggy,"
She said looking me from the corner of my eye I leaned over to my jacket beside me rummaging through my pockets to a lighter and my pack, the pack was light and only had a few left I gestured the pack of to her and as she leant in reaching for one of the cigarettes I closed the top making her flinch she gasped and looked at me still frozen in position. I pushed a stray hair behind her ear and sat up looking at her.
"What happened?"
Her eyes became lost and soulless I cupped her face in my hands and she leaned in looking into my orbs and me looking into hers and then she squashed her face to mine running her hands through my hair.
I leant back pushing her away from me with her shoulders.
"Tell me,"
Silence
"Bev?"
Silence
"- I have to go,"
She says in a hurry putting her shirt and jacket back on climbing over my legs exiting the cylinder. I grab her arm as she walks away.
She wipes a tear from her cheek and looks at me I wipe another on her jawline and proceed to take out a loose pen from my jacket writing my number on her wrist and she just stands there her blonde hair falling on her face in the dark.
"Call me,"
I say to her and she walks away my hands letting go of her arms.
"Later,"
I stayed in that tube for a long time feeling lost from my mind and filling all the voids of my emotions with nicotine.
