Darlings (Dane Dehaan)

Chapter Two - The poet

We walked in. loud music Making its way into my ears, drumming. I took The hold of Roselyns hand and led her over to The couch with Peter, william and our friends sitting down, discussing and passing vodka around.

She looked around as she greeted people. She looked slightly uncomfortable, but so did everyone.

"So Roselyn, what do you do" Paul Asked her "Im a poet of some sort" she said as they handed her The vodka, she looked down at it unsure of what to do next. Then she looked over at me, i shook my head as a Sign she Didnt need to. She passed The bottle to The next. We all made small talk before Roselyn headed over to The kitchen.

I Followed after her.

"so, what is up with The poet?" I Asked her with a cuckle. She rolled her eyes at me "The poet hasnt been drinking much before, The poet has only been drunk twice" she said Making a sarcastic laugh. I cuckled at her comment.

"let me show The poet then?" I Asked her softly. After a thoughtful moment where i Honestly thought she would decline but somehow we ended up in my bedroom drinking breezers as she laughed at my every word. I was still sober to witness how adorable she was drunk. With her cheeks red with crimson as her laugh filled The room and made everything feel so alive.

She started talking about Bliss and how they became friends in highschool after Bliss stood up for her and they have been friends Ever since and how she decided she wanted to be a poet because she wanted to show not every poet of The modern days were boring Old snobs.

"Somehow we are all more poetic when we Arent sober, and im more fond of being drunk with you than anything Else" she said as her cheeks got more red.

At this moment, after a week. I fell for her.

"That is somehow a weird thought" i Said to her and she leaned on me and sighed, Making me calm "first thought, best thought" she said closing her eyes leaning on my shoulder.

We stayed like that for a while before she jumped up.

"Bliss will be so mad when i come home so late" she said sounding rather dissapointed. I looked over at her "Ill drive you home" i stated as she looked uneasy "that eager to Get me out of The house" she said jokingly "No ill rather not have troubles with Bliss" i said.

We made it to her home standing in The front of The elevator laughing.

"The poet had fun" she said laughing "so did The Writer" i added on and she laughed louder. She pressed The elevator button and leaned in to give me a hug.

"I-i think i like you alot" she said In a clumsy manner, stuttering her words.

"we should do something on sunday" i Asked her "indeed we should" she said as she kissed my cheek and walked into The elevator giving me a small Wave as The doors closed.

I woke up to a smell of something burnt filling up my nostrils. I hurriedly got my clothes down and walked down The stairs. William and Peter sitting on each side of The livingroom carpet "Want some?" Peter Asked me from his side of The carpet handing over a cigarette "When i Get home" i responded to him and made my way out as i got my coat on.

I made my way over to my car, the leaves had turned brown quickly not that i Didnt pay much attention to it, wich shows why i noticed at this point in The middle of september.

I texted Roselyn saying i would be there in a few and she responded as fast as The message was sent.

I made my way Over to The appartment complexes parking lot as i notified her again of my presence outside.

Not long after i saw her half running to my car Making her way into The passenger Seat.

"Its really damn cold" she said rubbing her hands "yeah i realized so this morning too" i said more huskily than planned. It was silent before she broke it sounding softer than usual "what are we doing today" she Asked looking over at me curiously

"Ice cream i think if that sounds good and also i need to stop by The library"

"but its already cold, but i Dont mind The library" she said laughing.

"Ice cream feels better when its cold" i said looking at her and she agreed.

We made it into seveneleven and we got our icecream and got back into The car hurriedly in The cold.

"thats not ice cream thats yoghurt ice cream" she said looking over at me and i rolled my eyes to respond her and she giggled.

We not soon later made out way over to The liberary and The sections of books from before our time.

She had ran a different direction than me looking for books. As i found The book i was seeking, The great gatsby i went seeking for her. I stood between two sections as i Heard her voice

"My sin, my Soul. Lo-lee-ta, The tip of The tounge taking a trip of three steps down The plate to tap-"

I hear her Quote as i made my way over to her. As she stood there reading outloud from what i saw was Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita. Not that i had shown any interest in The book but The way it sounded as The words spilled from her mouth made me want to.

She looked on shelf after shelf quoting Authors, completly taken by The literature taking place and i enjoyed The sight.

after waltzing around The library for hours quoting Authors of Old books such as Fitzergerarlds The great Gatsby, Emily Brontes wuthering heights and Jane Austens Emma.

She looked so, passionate The way she would Find a Quote to express to only look for The next. The liberain who had told us to keep The Voices down for a number of times then came back to Inform that The library was soon closing.

We left The library not long after as i led her over to my car. We started Making The way over to The her appartment complex as i Followed her out of The car and back to The elevator where we stood The night before.

"See you in school on monday" she said and i nodded. she looked up at me and right there i lost it.

I pressed my lips on hers feeling how soft they were against mine.

Maybe she was annoying at times and read over The top pathetic half erotic books but i Didnt care at this moment as i kissed her and felt my insides spark.

I felt her kiss back as her lips started moving with mine. After not long our lips parted and she looked back up at me not noticing that The elevator had arrived.

She looked at me smiling and i felt my insides Move just like they did before. I returned her hand i Didnt notice i had taken in mine as she walked into the elevator.

"Good night" she said "but its not night yet" i said chuckling

"I Dont like saying good bye so i Say goodnight" she said smiling as The elevator closed.

When i kissed her, i felt almost high. Like i got my high after smoking.
