My morning was perfect.
Just thinking about what happened last night made me smile. I was happy, very happy.
You called me half an hour before ten. Of course, I answered. You told me you were outside, waiting for me to sneak out by my window, since you knew it was almost my curfew, and my parents will be mad. You knew all these, but you told me to anyway.
Of course, I hesitated, but when I look down by my window you were there. You were smiling at me, patiently telling me that it's fine to go, and that my parents were already asleep. You knew this, because you checked before you called me. I told you to hold on for a minute so I could change to pants and wear my jacket.
I poked my head out of the window, feeling the cool breeze of the night. You were down there, whispering to me that I'll be fine and that you will catch me if I fall. It was a sweet thing to say, making all my worries of falling and hurting myself go away.
We walked together towards the road. You brought a two-person bike, telling me that you rented it on a shop that one of your friends owned.
We pedaled together, just breathing in the cool air that enveloped our skin in clothing.
"Nice, huh?" You said as we moved on. I just nodded in reply, not minding if you saw that or not. The silence was just serene and peaceful to break.
You steered us towards the beach and just parked the bike there. We walked on the smooth white sand barefoot going near the shore. You took my hand and held it, keeping me warm against the cold breeze.
You led me to seat down on the sand, and just stare at the stars. Still holding my hand.
"There would not be a sound without silence." I said, breaking the silence while we just hear the soft crashing of the waves.
"Oh yeah?" You said and chuckled. You looked at me with those blue orbs that always kept me at ease and made me wander in it. Sometimes, getting lost.
You looked away and into the stars that shined over us. "There would be no stars without darkness." You said, whispering it on my ear that made me giggle for you knew it tickled.
You gazed at me again, now with sadness in your eyes. I asked you what's wrong, but you shook your head and retrieved your gaze into the night sky. I also looked at what you were looking.
"I envy the stars right now." I said, realizing that I blurted it out loud, but there's no turning back.
"Why? Because they twinkle? You twinkle too. You shine at night even at day." You said, making me blush. Happy that you weren't looking.
"No, not because of that," I said, trying to get the courage to build up fast. I looked at him, your eyes were still focused on the night sky.
"But because, your eyes are in them." I admitted softly. Regretting for saying it, even softly, knowing that you would still hear it by the silence of the beach.
You sighed, not turning to face. For the rest of the minutes that run, the silence became awkward for me. I shouldn't have said that and kept it to myself.
"I'm sorry."
I gulped quietly. I think I knew what was coming. You're going to apologize that you brought me here. That you led me on to something that was wrong. That you weren't supposed to be with me tonight.
"Sorry for what? You haven't done anything." I said, making sure that everything that comes out of my mouth was nothing to be awkward about.
You looked at me finally again. You were just staring at my eyes, making me feel completely insecure about myself. You were trying to find any emotion from my eyes just like what I'm doing to yours. And what I discovered were pure melancholy.
