The Only Exception.

falling...

It was the day after last night Axel drove me home. I dressed in black and walked to my sister's grave. I bought her favorite flowers and placed it on her grave. It was literally the first time I visited her grave. I still couldn't believe that my sister was...gone. I make myself think that she's alive, and that she's out there. Somewhere...but not knowing where she's at. It felt weird driving back home. It felt like she was still with me. Like if she were sitting right next to me. I felt like she was sitting right next to me. I felt my heart break. I felt darkness hover over me. I took a deep breath in and out. I tried to stay calm as possible but in a situation like this. I'm broken and nothing but broken. I finally pulled up to my house. When I enter the apartment. Callie was in her room hungover. The room was almost completely dark. It was messy, and reeked of alcohol and vomit. "Callie what the heck happened here!" Callie turns her head and she looked like a complete mess. Her hair was frizzy and messy. Her lipstick and mascara were smudged everywhere. The outfit she was wearing last night was on the floor. You tell she went blackout drunk last night. "Callie what the heck happened last night!?" I asked her. She answered in a raspy voice saying. "I had no idea what happened. Ugh. I haate..." Then out of nowhere Callie vomits into her waste basket. " Ew, oh my god Callie. How much drinks did you have last night?" I rush to side holding her hair back as she vomits. "Last time I remembered it was six shots? I think..." she says wipeing her mouth. "Callie are you out of your mind! Was that all?" I asked her. "All that I can remember." She tells me. "Dang, remind me to not leave you at a party like that again." She sits up and rubs her eyes. "Yeah about that where the heck were you yesterday!? You totally dissapeared." She asks me. "That conversation will be saved for later we gotta get you cleaned up." "Fine lets do it." About twenty mins. later Callie is all cleaned up and her room was...decent. I suddendly received a text from Axel asking me to call him. I was weirded out by the fact he wanted me to call him but I did anyway. "Hello? Is everything okay?" I ask him. "Everything is fine don't worry. But you left your purse in my room. I'm coming to bring it to you." He tells me. "No you don't have to do that. That's a long trip." I tell him. "Yeah it's long trip but it's worth it though if I'm only seeing your face." I smiled and blushed. "Do you want me to meet up with you?" I ask him. "No, that's not necessary. I'm almost there anyways. I will meet you at your apartment." He hung up after that. "Who's that Katherine." I smile to myself then turn to Callie. "Axel, called me." I tell her. "Ooh somebody's blushing. What's up with him." She asks me. "I dunno but all I know is that I feel like I'm thirteen again." I said hopping on the countertop. "What do mean? Oh my god girl do you like him?" She said smiling at me. "I'm not so sure about that. But he makes me blush, and get butterflies in my stomach. But I'm not so sure about liking him." Callie crosses her arms and gives me that face saying ''Yeah sure''. "Well admit it do you think he's cute?" Callie said smirking. "I'm not going to say that. I keep that stuff private." Callie sighs and walks to her room. Twenty minutes pass by and there was a knock on the door. I open it to reveal Axel standing in front of the door with a bouquet of flowers. "What's this?" I asked. "Callie sent me here, which honestly don't mind." He tells me. I turn and gave Callie a look. She turns around and walks away with sass. "I'm sorry that she sent you here you didn't have too." I tell him. "Well Callie and I basically planned this. I told her I wanted to suprise you with flowers and..." he pulls out two tickets to a cinema, with a movie that I wanted to see. "Oh my god! You got tickets to born to run? I've always wanted to see that movie!" He smiles and hands me the bouquet of flowers. "And you got me roses and violets again? There beautiful!" I bury my nose into the bundle of the sweet flowers. "You've been through a lot lately, the least I could is to suprise you with flowers and tickets to a movie." He said. "Thank you so much, you're so sweet. Here come in for a little bit." I grabbed a vase from the cabinet and filled it up with water. "You can sit on the couch if you want, would like anything to drink?" I asked him, then placing the vase on the table. "No I'm fine but thank you." He said politely. "I'll be right back I'm going to um, make myself presentable. I hope you dont mind." I tell him. "Yeah of course" he said. "Even though you already look lovely." Him just saying that made me feel warm and loved inside. How wonderful. I thought to myself. I smile and walk into my room feeling butterflies in my stomach and my ears burning. I hurried to make myself look at least decent in a short about of time. Gosh why am I so intensely nervous, I haven't felt this way since finals. Why feel like this over some guy? I though to myself. I walk out with a smile on my face. "Ready to go?" He asked. "Of course I am." We both walked out the door and into his car. It had the fresh smell of lavender or some fresh soapy smell. We got to a vintage cinema which looks gorgeous. As soon as we got in we got soda popcorn and a pack of sour patch kids. The movie was great and cinematic. "That was great movie, I'm glad I saw it." I said to Axel. "Yeah it was good, but it was better when I saw it with you." He said looking at me with dreamy eyes. "What is that supposed to be some kind of cheesy pick up line?" I chuckled. "Sure, but I guess i kind of do mean it. You know I was going to go alone, ar first obviously." He said opening the car door for me and shuts it. I buckle my self in as he got into the car. We went to his house to chill for a while. He hung out talked about all the things in the world. Like anything it was so random but I loved it. We dranked whiskey and sure I was under the age the I'm not that far from the limit and it was not like I was not like I was driving home drunk. I was staying the night. At one point in the night we got to the point where we got drunk. And things got flirty. One moment we were talking the next moment my head was on his shoulder snuggled against him, with his arm wrapped around my waist. Then the next moment I blacked out and woke up in his bed with him on the floor. I was wearing his white shirt with my normal jean shorts I was wearing yesterday. He was still peacefully sleeping. I got out of bed and freshened my self up. By the time I was done, he was up. "Morning darling." He said with a raspy morning voice, which lowkey made his accent sexier. "Darling?" I asked. "Sure why not?" He said. I climbed onto the bed with him on it. "Did you sleep well last night?" He said sitting up. "Yeah, I'm still a little tired, I just want to lay down for a little before I start my day." I tell him. "I feel the same to, you know just either texting or talk to someone before you start your day." He said. "Yeah..." I look at him, and i can't help but feel a little scandalous just looking at him. What the hell is wrong with me? Snap out it. I'm not gonna fall for. I kept telling my self that but it was too late...I'm already falling for him...
