As our feet dangled over the bridge, moving in careless circles. Behind us the cars broken parts flooded the air with smoke, wafting up till it disappeared. I couldn't get my mind off of what I had said, it was wrong. I might feel that way but... I hurt him saying those things, when he had just opened up to me. I looked over, my chin brushing my shoulder and looking at his curls that just barely brushed his forehead, his brown eyes closed off from the rest of the world, shut down and done with any and everything.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean what I said. It came out wrong, I just..."
I left my sentence hanging there, waiting for him to jump at the sentence, finish my apology and everything would be as it was. We'd act as if we never talked about this.
"Well you said it." His voice hoarse with unshed tears, "and I know you meant it." A grimace crossed his face as he spoke, repulsed by my words. My heart sunk, slowly making my stomach twist with nerves. Why was he keeping this conversation up? I didn't need this now, everything is, was going so well. Why was he doing this to me, we were so happy.
"It's just, I don't know if that's what I want." Why was I defending myself, to him of all people. He knows what it was like for me, he saw me cry through all those days, of when my parents split.
Scoffing, he catches my eye, "If you love meas much as you say you do, why is me asking to marry you a bad thing?"
I needed to end this, now.
"It's a difficult situation right now."
"Is it because of your parents? We won't be like them."
Frustration started to burn in the pit of my stomach, boiling to the top.
"How do you know?" I burst, "My parents said they trusted each other, look where that got them!!!"
"I don't know, but we're not them! We could be so much better."
A tear leaked through my defences, all the fight leaving me. It hurts having to fight with him. He reached over, wiping the tear away, his rough palm scraping against my cheek. I leaned into his heat, not wanting to leave him. I shifted my face towards his as he leaned closer. His lips fit with mine, gently he moved his lip sin sync with mine, I brought my hand up to his, gripping it as he hands spread in my hair holding the base of my neck, letting my head lean further back. Not once breaking the kiss. One that seemed to be like a goodbye. Or a hello, I don't know. But once this kiss was over something would be different.
I was the first to break it, leaning back slowly, but his hand at the base of my neck kept me there pressing my forehead to his. I opened my eyes, looking right into his chestnut eyes.
"Your parents aren't us," his breath blew into my face, peppermint and fresh. "There's nothing wrong with taking a chance. That's all I ask of you."
It wasn't a goodbye but something new. I could say no or swallow my pride and say yes. I tilted my head pressing our lips together, never wanting this, us, to change. My lashes fluttering across his cheekbones, willing my heart to know that things always change.
"Maybe not today, not now. But one day. One day I might say yes to you asking me to marry me" I breathed, his sigh of relief was prominent. And so was the kiss. Full of such hope, fierce and strong. His lips moving in time with mine, like they belonged there. His hand dug further into my hair as mine sifted through his curls. Felling them tangle around my fingers as we continued the kiss. Finally we pulled back, both gasping for air. I opened , never wanting this moment to end.
-Time Skip-
"Did you call the AMA?" I questioned, his eyes widened after mere moments from me asking the question.
"Ummmm..."
"Seriously, I thought you did!"
Exasperated I grab my phone out of my pocket pulling my hands away from his. Jack reaches over, plucking it from my hands grabbing the phone and pulling up the dialer. He plants a kiss on my lips and jumps up, walking away to call the company. My mouth twitched into a smile. He's such a noodle, but at least he's my noodle.
