Our First Encounter

I'll Miss You

Recap: I looked over to see if the women from before was still standing there and to my surprise, she was. I walked away from the other people, because I noticed she looks familiar, I just can't tell who it is from this distance. I walked up to her and she turned quickly... It was Stace.

Stace kept her glare at me and my eyes didn't move away either, she had puffy eyes from all of the crying and I felt bad instantly... Why is she even crying? She doesn't even know my parents or anything... This is so, annoying. I walked up closer and slowly opened my mouth to speak, but then closed it again to think up a response.

"So... What are you doing here?" I said quietly, looking back up into her eyes. Her hair blew a little from the wind and it went over her eyes, but she ignored it.

"I couldn't just... I couldn't stay home while my son left to see his parents get buried... It isn't right, I had to be here with you." She said, her tone breaking as she began to speak. I looked down at the ground... My son, those were her words... Did I hear it correctly? Does she really think of me as her own...? I definitely haven't shown her any respect... I told her flat out that she isn't my mother, that I don't really care. I thought she was being a douche because she doesn't like me being with Nathan much... But, it's because she cares about me, her son. I crossed my arm over my stomach and broke down into tears, why does everyone have to be so nice? I'm not used to people caring this much... The feeling is so unbearably loving... It makes me feel so special, I love it... The feeling of truly being cared about.

"Thank you for that, M...- Stace." I said... I stopped myself before I could call her 'mom' simply because I don't think it'd be right... It wouldn't be right to call her 'mom' at my mothers funeral... She walked closer and gave me another hug and I cried on her shoulder, Nathan was behind me... Looking down at me with worry in his eyes. Stace backed away from me and I gave her a small smile and she went over to place her rose down, leaving Nathan standing in front of me.

"Hey, Adam, are you alright?" He said, rubbing his hand on my shoulder. This is quite awkward... I mean, all these people could see... I stepped back one step and smiled widely.

"Yes, I'm fine." I said and went over to pick up a rose. Nathan followed behind me and got a rose like me. He gave me a small smile as we walked up to their graves and placed down the roses. There were already many roses there, but the rose I gave... It's the most special, it means more... From their son, his brother... From true family, it means so much more. I looked over at the dates on the graves... They had so much more life they could've lived... But they just had to go... Collin, he'll never get older, he never got to have his first relationship or anything really...

"I'll live my life to the fullest, to make you proud of your big brother. I'll make you all proud... Mother and father, I love you both so very much, I'll miss you dearly." I said to them... It feels weird talking to a stone, but... Just the fact that I'm speaking upon their name means everything, if they could hear my last words to them. I'd like to believe they can... Nathan whispered some things that was inaudible to me, he had a smile, but tears filled his eyes... Which he quickly wiped away. I wonder what he's saying... I walked a little closer from behind, so he didn't see me and I leaned down a little to hear.

"I'll make your son proud, I'll protect him... I'll love him and I won't let anyone hurt him... I wish I got to know you more, you were such a loving mother to him, he's growing up to be a stunning, loving young man and... Without you, he wouldn't be him. Thank you for that.-" he continues... I walked away and sat in a nearby chair, my head hurts so bad right now. He doesn't have to do all that for me... I don't need to be protected, it's not like someone's going to come over and snatch me... Jeez this guy, he did protect me before in school, but now... He kind of can't because he already graduated. I thinned my eyes and turned a little, he left me in a learning center while he chills and watching spongebob, wow. I blushed a little as I remembered his words more... Stunning, loving young man, such kind words. I couldn't help but smirk a little as I saw him walk up. Nathan's eyes were a tad bit puffy, but other than that you couldn't really tell he was crying at all.

"Hey Adam...-" he started and I looked up at him. He leaned closer and held a smile smile.

"Yes? What is it...?" I asked... Backing away a bit, he can't kiss me in front of all these people if that's what he's planning, no way. He placed his hand on my thigh which sent shivers running through my body.

"Hey! Stop!" I yelled in a whisper tone... What the crap?! Dude, I'm surrounded by all these people and he's touching my leg, and it's making me.... What the.... This is a funeral, my mothers going to shun me for this!

"I love you." He said back softly and I blushed a little and smiled back up to him...

"I love you too, Nathan." I said and he smiled. That was the first time I could so casually say it back... It feels good to admit it and really mean it. I don't even feel shy or even embarrassed about it... I truly love him, Nathan's definitely the one I love.

-Funeral ends-

The funeral was over and literally people were leaving... I mean, I knew they weren't going to stay all day... But, this is awkward. People were hugging me all day and then telling me goodbye... Best of luck etc... I looked around to see that me and Nathan were the only ones here, what?! Even Stace left?! Really... She totally left... Well that brings up the question of who was watching Erick this whole time. Oh crap! He better not have went through my stuff. I secretly bought something I shouldn't have, but I have it just in case and I really don't want him to find it. Oh my gosh, he better not be in my room. Nathan walked up to me and gave me a soft hug, then pulling me to a kiss. I kissed back and his tongue went into my mouth... Even though the thought of it is weird, it feels so good. I did the same and Nathan grabbed my hip and I couldn't help it, I... I literally moaned... Like, I seriously moaned like a freaking girl... I felt instant embarrassment and turned quickly, so Nathan couldn't see my flushed face... Oh my god, this is so freaking awkward, maybe he didn't hear.

"Was that a moan?" He said blankly with a slight chuckle... Oh my gosh... He heard. I ran to the car, but it was locked, so I hid behind it... I don't even want to see his face, he's going to laugh at me.

"Hey, Adam... Come back, where'd you go?" He asked and I heard his footsteps go all around and then they got closer. I held my hands to my face and he grabbed onto them.

"You're so shy, it's cute... Really hot sound you made, you should do it again." Nathan said with a wink and I mentally face planted. This freaking weirdo!

I hope you enjoyed. (:
