"so i kiss you goodbye, maybe i shouldn't, not when it's good"

heartless ( madison beer )

-- ✞ --

i'd always thought i didn't really have a type in guys. i was less particular. a hot guy was a hot guy. but i realized now that i must have been the most difficult to please of all of them. apparently, my type was extremely specific, i'd just never known it. i hadn't known i was looking for eyes the color of ink, because i'd never seen it before.

i stared at abel, a little dazed, as usual.

"i need a back rub, i feel agitated," he looked at me hopefully.

a back rub for such a stunning human being? how could i resist such an offer?

"of coarse," i responded.

"then I'll see you at my place in a couple of hours, yeah?"

"mhmm."

he glanced at me for one brief second before walking away, leaving me at the lobby of the girls dorm room building.

-- ✞ --

it was raining, the lights across campus flashed through the rain. the rain lashed against my face; i pulled my hood up. it was a good thing that i didn't wear anything too formal, a hoodie and black leggings were all i had in mind.

i slowly entered the lobby of the boys dorm room building which i have never been in, and i was hit by the faint scent of weed. a couple of boys sitting around turned towards me, taking a quick glance and looked away.

i approached the elevator, pressing the up button as it dinged open. once i was inside, i pressed in the fourth floor according to abel, was where his dorm room was. it was my first time so i didn't know what to expect.

i exited the elevator as it stopped, and walked through the long corridor. 127, i stopped in front of the red door with a large "xo" symbol on it. i could hear voices from inside the room, wondering whether we'd be alone or not. i took a deep breathe, knocked lightly and waited.

a few seconds passed, and the door slowly opened revealing abel, wearing only a t-shirt and puma sweats, not his usual attire i was used to. his jaw set when he saw me, and his eyes darted to my face and away so quickly that i wasn't sure if i'd only imagined it.

"hey, you're... here," when he spoke, he seemed to be choosing his words very carefully.

"was i not supposed to?" i was surprised. were there any girls inside?

"no, i just didn't expect it," he said scratching the back of his head, taking a uneasy look behind him.
