missing💞 (Carlos Mena🤤)

Fifty Four

I crossed my arms as I sat in the passenger seat.

Carlos: Carmen stayed taking care of Amaya
Emily: ok

He turned off the car and we parked in the same place where Brandon and I used to come.

Carlos: what the fuck was that Emily?
Emily: he kissed me. you saw me pull him away
Carlos: yeah after he had put his tongue down your throat
Emily: oh shut up, you know that never happened
Carlos: I was waiting to see if you were gonna let him
Emily: well I didn't

There was a moment of silence. Really I wasn't crying. I've cried too much. And this time it really wasn't my fault. He kissed me and I pushed him back. I might of been smiling to him a lot. I'll admit he's cute but I wouldn't of kissed him. A sniff drives me out of my thoughts and I look at Carlos. He was crying.

Carlos: do you not love me anymore?
Emily: Carlos if I didn't love you I would of said no to you

I put my hand on his cheek.

Emily: and the ring is on my finger

He smiles lightly as I wipe his tears.

Emily: I love you no matter what
Carlos: I love you

I hug him and he smiles.

Wow.

We didn't scream.

We both get out of the car and we sit on the front of the car. I hug my knees as I feel cold. The city in front of us was beautiful. All of the lights, all of those cars. The tall buildings that reached the birds. I look at his hair. He's getting a perm tomorrow.

Emily: are you really gonna perm your hair?
Carlos: yess
Emily: but I like your hair like this
Carlos: i gotta look different babe

I laugh as we both lay on the car. Leaning on the glass.

I hug him and lean my head on his chest. Sometimes, I realize that I got lucky. I am never gonna meet anyone who loves me and supports me like he does.
