The Difference Between Vulnerability And Desolation Is Fear | Aphmau AU

Seventeen/Seventeen

The 12th of May, Friday, 2018.

We spent four days exploring around this part of the island together, catching up and spending time with each other 24/7. I don't think there was ever a time that we left each other's side. We were always standing next to each other, and if not, in the same room. Honestly the only time we were apart was when we had to go to the bathroom. If we couldn't do something together, we didn't do it. End of discussion. She even came to physical therapy and watched from a distance so she didn't get in the way.
   Eventually though, I had to go. I told Aphmau and she started panicking. "What? Where are you going?!" She asked, tears already streaming down her face.
   "I-I just have to run and errand..!" I said nervously. I knew I couldn't leave her now, that would be cruel. I whimpered and hugged her. "O-Okay, I won't go."
   She hugged back tight. "Don't scare me like that!"
   I felt just as worse then. I hugged her tighter and whimpered louder. Dad walked in from the shouting. "What happened?"
   "Nothing." Aphmau said, not about to get me into trouble because she was too kind.
   He sighed and left.
   "You can come with me then." I mutter, although it was risking a lot. She nods and clutched my arm. I was allowed out on my own now, but only for an hour at most anyway. With Aphmau with me, I could stay out all day.
   We walked around the island and went to a gift store to get sunscreen. This was only because the jewellery store was next door and I knew that Aphmau would want to go in there. I needed to go in there and that was the real errand, I just needed an excuse to go in there.
   Aphmau saw it while we walked up to the gift store. "Hey! Can we go in there after?!" She asked hopefully, staring up at me with puppy eyes.
   I pretended to roll my eyes at her but nodded. We got the sunscreen then we went inside. She looked at all the jewellery but kept fawning over a silver ring, with several tiny diamonds in it. The shopkeeper saw her staring and smiled. "Would you like to try it on?" He asked kindly.
   She shook her head, blushing. "I-I don't have any money for it."
   "That's ok." He shrugged and unlocked the cabinet, grabbed it, then slipped it on her finger. She smiled and stared at it.
   I peered at the price and held my breath. $1300. I waited for her to wear it for a few seconds then she took it off and gave it back. She then got side tracked and hovered in the door way, staring at a corgi.
   The owner looked at me. "You’re a lucky man."
   I blush and nod, biting my lip. I motion to the ring. "Could I..?"
   He nods and puts it in a box while I paid for it on the card my dad got me. He gave it to me as a gift for the vacation as money for food and gifts. I was planning on buying a ring for Aphmau already, and he knew, it was just a little bit more expensive then what I was prepared to spend. However I didn't care because she really wanted it. I shoved it in my jacket pocket and smiled, walking to Aph.
   "What do you want to do now?" I ask.
   She shrugged and thought a little. "Was anybody else in the house when we left?"
   "Uh, no. Why?"
   "Can we get cake stuff and make one?"
   "Sure. But what does that have to do with the house being empty?" I ask as we start walking to a small grocery store that was close by.
   She smiled at me. "Because I want to be alone with you. If the house was empty it'd be just us, if not, we'd stay out."
   I shrug and nod, slowly reaching to hold her hand. She clasped it tightly and leaned against my shoulder a little, ignoring at anybody who groaned because of 'pda'.
   By the time we got all the cake stuff and had started making one back at the house, somebody could have made a three course meal. We took ages, and then another two hours making the cake. Thankfully nobody came back. While it was cooking, we started eating the extra tub of frosting we got.
   Eventually decided to take some and put it literally on my stomach, just above my swimming trunks. I blushed madly when she licked it. Straight after she started eating the frosting normally, but I kept on blushing and didn't have anymore.
   She looked at my expression and giggled. "What? We used to do that all the time."
   "Yeah, and it always lead to..." I didn't finish my sentence. Literally this was the first time I realized it'd been so long since we last had sex.
   She smirked to herself. "Yep." I waited until we got the cake out and put it in a cooling rack to whimper and start kissing her.
