Sitting on the edge of the lake, watching the sun set below the horizon, with my boyfriend, everything seemed so perfect what wasn’t perfect was the fact that I had to move to England. My dad had just got a new job in England and he said it was “an opportunity of a lifetime”, "a golden chance" I had no other choice.
"Dave" I say slowly facing my boyfriend, the love of my life well that was a bit cheesy wasn't it? Ah whatever
"Yea Tessa?” he replies looking at me
"I am going to miss you Dave” I say as my voice shakes and my tears about to burst out from my eyes
"I am going to miss you too babe "he says with a concerned look plastered on his face .The thought of me leaving Dave, leaving my home is so painful that my eyes can't take it anymore . As tears burst out, Dave pulls me closer into his chest .
It’s warm and makes me feel good I wish this moment would never end. I try controlling myself from crying but the tears won’t stop. "Don’t cry babe, you know it’s just a matter of two months you'll be here back soon " he says wiping my tears with his thumb.
"And how is that supposed to happen” I reply
"Because it Emily’s wedding after two months silly, and plus it’s your vacation too, so it’s obvious you are going to come " he says grinning at me like an idiot
"Don't call me silly you arsehole, you’re the one who’s silly not me " I reply pouting and crossing my arms
"Okay okay I take it back, but just don't cry alright?”
"Okay”
"Come on lets go its late already. And you need a good night's sleep “he says kissing the top of my head.
Slowly we make our way to my house our fingers entwined with each other’s. This feels so perfect why do I have to leave why can’t I stay here? I cannot imagine myself without Dave he's been with me since we were kids .We were attached by the hip I don’t want to leave him .
"Tessa?" Dave says snapping me out of my thoughts with a confused look on his face
"Yea?”
"Um! Nothing you were acting a bit distracted is there something bothering you? Are you okay?”
"How can you expect me to be okay? I am leaving you tommorow"I reply hugging him
"Sshh! it’s okay Tessa look at me " as he says this he holds my chin so I can see his face, his deep blue eyes staring are into mine. Damn this boy has addicting eyes.
He’s leaning forward to kiss me I close my eyes and feel his kiss. Have you ever heard about feeling fireworks while kissing? Well honestly I never felt fireworks when Dave kissed me I don't know why but I can only think of three reasons
1. Feeling fireworks is just a shitty theory that doesn’t exist
2. Maybe I’ll feel fireworks when he kisses me on some special day probably the day when he asks me to marry him (yea I’ve already married him like million a times in my head)
3. Maybe Dave isn't the love of my life
Well the third option probably cannot be true because Dave and me are practically deep in love so just chuck the third option.
Why am I thinking all this shit when Dave is kissing me?
Focus Tessa focus!
I think about his lips .yea they are soft but what about the fireworks? When am I going to feel it?
