everything went really quickely. after el and max were done with the food, max said she needed to go. but remembered that she literally had no idea where in the woods she actually was. plus, el was horrible in explaining things, and she couldn't walk with max because of daddy issues, so she had no choice but to stay here.
,,you wanna sleep here? really?" el asked with a suprise face. ,,i don't have a choice..."
,,well i'm okay with it - except i don't have a place for you, you know, like a bed." el said turning a little red.
oh god, max thought. not gonna lie, el was one of the best cooks AND one of the best girls like ever. she was sweet, funny, and, if max was being honest precious, but sleep in the same bed with her? ... her brother would have so many reasons to hate on her and tease her for either a slut or a lesbian. she never slept with a boy, so what about a girl?!
it was quite late. el had no tv or clock in her house, but she did have a laptop and a phone. max only had her camera which was pretty ... stupid.
,,why don't you take a shower and look what pyamas suit you? i'm quite had at choosing things for other people, so i'd rather want you to do it yourself." el suggested.
max actually wanted to spend most of the night just talking with el, (just to know her better, she asured herself) but did what el suggested and took a shower. and chose a p-j. green was always good, right?
she rushed back to the kitchen so she could get herself some water in case her mouth felt dry during sleeping (which was one of the main reasons her sleepschedule was messed up).
while looking for a glass to use, el came in saying: ,,what are you doing?"
max looked up almost dropping the glass. ,,god, you scared me!" the brown-haired laughed it off. ,,i'm looking for a glass of water."
,,oh i couldve got it for you!" she said, smiling. max' stomach made a woosh. she was so pretty when she smiled ... she looked so bright and super happy like nothing could stop her ... she looked like a super positive person with no fears and nothing holding her back from her teeth shining and walking around with one of the biggest smiles max had ever seen.
while max was daydreaming she noticed how el's lips turnes serious again, and she heard 'max' when she got snapped back to reality. ,,max?" el repeatingly said. ,,sorry el! sorry. i- i got uh- doesn't matter." max took a deep breath. ,,uh- water?" el smiled again.
,,oh yeah! right." everything seemed to go in slowmotion when el took the glass out of max her hands and accidently touched her hand. the redheads hands became weak within a second: max was scared she would drop the glass, but el was quicker.
max tried not to get a sort of panic attack at that moment - el was just softly & calmly filling the glass with fresh water, while max was thinking all of this throught and her heart beating like shit.
after that things went quickely again. el filled the glass and max took a little water to calm herself down, and they eventually ended in bed. max was staring against the white wall with a huge painting of like 1800 with a lot of people a lot of details. she was quietly looking at it, her eyes rolling from one side to the other, when el said; ,,amazing, isnt it? when i saw it in the store i was amazed by how many things it included. i bought it because i knew it would make me feel a little sleepy, to like hang it in front of my bed."
el's voice sounded very dreamy, when she suddenly pulled max's arm so that max slid flat on the bed - and now looked at the ceiling. it was filled with glow-in-the-dark stars, moons and even planets - mainly in yellow, but also in orange and dark blue, purple and pink, and even a few white ones. "fascinating." max said with a mouth full of teeth. el chuckled. ,,i knew you would love it. these are like my friends. i dont like the dark so i have these starts that keep me 'safe'." that thought made max feel extremely lonely.
,,impressive." max finally released. el sighed. ,,sorry, i'm really weird." max heard her voice getting softer and immediately felt bad. ,,no, i'm sorry - i didn't need to react so uninterested. i- i think your stars are really cool." max turned her head to el and smiled.
,,your freckles are really beautiful," el said when her head turned towards max's. ,,sometimes I wish I had freckles. i have a few, but yours are much nicer. plus, freckles are cute by just a few type of people. i mean thats what i think, don't you?" this felt like an insult to a compliment. ,,you have a point thought ..."
max and el stared into each other's eyes for a few second, what felt like infinity. el was so pretty. her hair was bushy and a nice colour, which lowkey made max wanna play with it. she could already feel the soft, brown locks in her hands ...
or her hazel eyes, which seemed to have literally every eyecolour that ever existed in it - her left eye had a sort of green, blue, purpleish more kind of colour, like a sort of galaxy, while her right one was more on the yellow and orange side, like a sunset. max was imagining tons of aesthetics that would match the eye colours, like sunflowers & orange juice, yellow stars, paint and balloons, and water with a orange colour because of the light, the fireflies, cutted oranges and legos, gummybears, candy & nailpolish. but also a sky full of stars, cristal & ice, marshmallows, blueberries, a night filled with fireworks, seas with gellyfish, and a cloudy sky, glitters, purple water throught bath bombs, bubbles, figi-water, glow in the dark earphones, poison, leeves and those green tumblr devil photos.
her skin was a soft type of white, but also not that white, a little like pastel pink colour, with like el said, a few almost invisible freckles below her eyes and on her little nose.
was max hallicunating or was el literally perfect?
when they were gazing into each others eyes like that, el eventually moved and layed her head on max' stomach. max' heart was going faster throught that and tried so hard not to do anything weird. so she layed there, "chill", while inside she was freaking out. the cold she felt before she entered this house was completely gone and she felt so much more at home then with her family. did max know el for 2 hours or for 2 years?
while thinking this all throught, her eyes closing, and slowely falling asleep ...
