kiss the boy [bxb]

fourteen

parker

i don't know why i said it. i didn't mean it.

i would never mean something like that.

but i said it and he thought i meant it.

i went to isaiah's house. his mom opened the door and let me in. she said that he talked about me a lot and that she hadn't seen him smile so much when he did. it made my throat constrict more.

i found him in his room. he didn't even turn around.

"i'm sorry, i didn't mean it. any of it. i don't know why i said it. i want to be your boyfriend and i want you to worry about me because it's how you care about people. and i want you to care about me because you are the only really good thing in my life. i love you so please don't be mad at me."

he wiped away my tears i didn't know had fallen and kissed me.

"you let go of my hand."

"i promise i will never let go of your hand again. i love you."

"i love you too."
