31st of August - 2014
I'm sorry I haven't written in a month, I just... I thought I could make it without you, Stella. I really did. But I can't and I relapsed. They say my depression is back, honestly it never left, not since the day I woke up without you by my side. I just feel empty without you.
But let's move on to cliche number four, maybe letting go of another chapter of us will help.
The day I realized I wanted you by my side was the day I realized I should do something about it, but you couldn't love me as more than your friend, you couldn't because I thought no one could love me. They say we accept the love we think we deserve and at that time I didn't think I deserved any. But you had other plans.
You called me and told me to look at my window, it was pouring rain in the middle of August. I counted about ten times that you told me you were bored so I thought we could meet at a little coffee shop near our school. I still remember what you were wearing because you were insane to wear a short sleeved dress with sandals while everyone around you wore light raincoats and rain boots, or in my case, a hoodie and my black combat boots.
The rain had stopped a little while before I saw you entering the cafe, making the bell attached to the door ring. You skipped over to my table and the three other people who were sitting on the other tables gave you a funny look but I just chuckled.
You ordered what I soon found out was your usual, a black coffee with milk mixed in it and somehow you didn't need to add sugar.
I kept looking at the, almost faded,freckles on your nose and cheeks, at the way your eyes would shine every time you talked about something you loved and how I just wished that someday that sparkle in your eyes happened when you said my name,talked about which cologne I wear or even how I don't like tomatoes, but I love broccoli.
Human kind is a funny thing. A simple touch can trigger our hearts and make them race faster, that same touch makes us feel butterflies in our stomachs and makes us feel safe but insecure at the same time, so strong but so fragile. Well, some call it love,and when you placed your hand in mine, that was exactly what I felt.
But what was the cliche this time, you ask?
After we left the coffee shop, the dark clouds started to appear again, and halfway to your house, it started raining. I offered you my jacket, but you said you had a better idea, so you placed your arms under mine inside the jacket and cuddled into my chest.
That was when I started leaning in, allured by how the lighting (or the lack of it) made your lips look so plump, so kissable. I was so close, I could feel your breath tickling my jaw, so I did it, I kissed you and, for my own surprise, you kissed back.
And yes that was our forth cliche, that stupid, romantic, kiss in the rain.
