Thief

1

Hi, I'm Kade. I haven't had the best track record of boyfriends. Some of them have just been thieves. Some of them have lied to me just to take a piece of my soul to better their life's. You see, in this world, everytime you fall in love but no one loves you back, you lose a piece of your soul. I, well I don't have very much left... But that's all my fault, I go after the bad ones. The really terrible people who don't know how to love, they only know how to take pieces. They are thieves. So, I don't have friends, lovers, relationships, or any contact with people. The only exception is Spencer. He's my best friend, I did love him romantically once. But, sadly, he's one of those weirdos who are normal to society and are straight. How boring. But now, we have a strictly platonic relationship. Just friends. Which is totally fine because I don't want to lower myself to date that perfect, hansom, God send, idiot anyway. It's fine... OK its definitely not but I'm working on that. He is happily in a relationship with an ugly hore of a bitch. OK she's not that terrible, she makes really good brownies. But other than that she's a bitch. God I wish I was her. But it's fine, it's whatever...

  Yup, I'm gonna die. I can only take, possibly one or two more loves. The world has only known of two immortals. The ones who never found love, and the ones that make people fall in love with them.

So here I am, walking to the movies alone. Spencer is with his girlfriend. Ugh.  She doesn't deserve him, but whatever.

I managed to get into the building without any human contact. But, then something happened. I bumped into someone, I fucking knocked them down like a tree. Way to go me. Wow I hate myself right now.

"I am so sorry!  Are you OK?" I asked, helping the person up.

As soon as I looked at him, I felt it leave. The piece. I don't know how much I have left but I hope to God I'm not about to die because of this.  He has dark brown hair, he looks like he actually takes showers. Wonder what that's like. His eyes are bright blue, like bright, bright, blue. Like if electric blue drowned in an ocean while being hit by lightning. They're so bright. He's so, perfect?  Is that what this is?  Damn, don't mind if I do. 

"hello?" he said waving a hand in my face. 

"oh!  Sorry." I quickly said. 

"it's fine." he said chuckling like a goddamn angel!  "but, can I have my hand back?"

"what?" I looked down to see his hand between both of mine. I rip my hands away.  "sorry, I'll just go now." I turn to leave.

"wait!" he said and grabbed my hand. 

"yeah?"

"Can I at least know your name first? Or are you here with someone?" he asked. Does that mean he likes me?  Is he flirting? 

"um, Kade?"

"you don't seem too sure about that." he pointed out.

"well it's just, it's not everyday you run down a cute guy and he doesn't end up hating you." I say.

"well, you're not too bad yourself." he said looking me up and down.

"I'm Alex." he said smiling.

Alex. I like that.

"well, are you here to see a movie or do you just stand here to scope out guys?" I joke.

"I'm here to see The boy of stars."

"that's what I'm here to see too!  Do you maybe want to sit together?" I ask dumbly.

"sure, I'd love that." he said enthusiastically.

Well, I guess I'm not as repulsive as I thought. Awesome.

We were sitting in the seats. But, I couldn't stop looking over at him, at him and his entirety. He's so beautiful. Like, if Jesus was young, skinny, and cute. But he has better cheek bones.

"you know, you'll miss the movie if you don't stop staring at me." he said, leaning over to me.

"oh, sorry. I'll stop." welp, I'm a FUCKING IDIOT! 

He laughed and looked at me. 

"You know, you're really cute." he said and grabbed my hand.

"um, thanks. I mean, you're hotter than me that's for sure. You look like a Greek God but I mean you're way out of my league so I'm surprised you are even talking to me right now. Wow OK I'm just talking and not stopping right now. I need to stop. Damn you have nice eyes. I should really stop but funnily enough I can't stop myself so I just feel like a fucking idiot right now." I was cut off by him kissing me.

It was so... Weird. I haven't felt that way in a while. My stomach felt like a burning ball of lead. And, my hands felt cold and clammy. I couldn't even hear the movie playing anymore. Everything was just gone. It was only us in the world. Just us two. No movie, no noise, no people. Just us.

He pulled away and looked into my wide eyes. He smiled, God he's beautiful.

But then he turned and continued to watch the movie. I couldn't focus on the movie at all. I just kept staring at him. He's so, perfect, just so perfect. It seems impossible for someone to look like that and have that type of personality.

~~~~~~

After the movie we walked awkwardly to the door. 

"so, can I have your number? Or are you just a thief and want to leave?" he asked looking weirdly depressed.

"oh, sure." I said and put my number in his phone.

"cool, thanks. I'll call you later." he said then walked away.

He could be a thief. He could. But, something about him makes me feel like he's more than that. More than most people. Like there's actually something there with us. I met him like two hours ago but... He feels right. Ugh, what am I thinking?  I can't fall in love!  I'll die!  But he seems so different. So... Perfect... Just too perfect....
