Jumping in my bed is the first and only thing on my mind once I enter my house.
Micheal, being the best brother in law ever, grabbed my bags and put them in my room while I was still getting out of the car.
He left soon after.
It took me a minute because of the massive headache, forming in the back of my head. It began to get so bad that I finally took the L and swallowed the migraine medication without any water.
It's a weird talent I have...
The familiarity and warmth that came rushing to me when I entered my room was overwhelming. I never knew how much I could miss an in adamant object.
I'm back home...
I'm gonna relax until I know for sure that this headache is completely gone.
Changing into a pair of boy shorts and a tank top, I start some music and lay down. Location by Khalid came on and I couldn't help but blast it, having a dance party with myself.
So much for relaxing...
After that song, all the bops started playing and I really couldn't help myself. Just when my favorite song comes on, the doorbell rings 4 times.
I shout for the person to come in.
I have a doorbell ring pattern for my friends, just so I know that it's not an ax murderer...
I heard the door open and footsteps following after it was closed. I keep dancing because it the best thing I can do to keep my mind off of everything that's going on. A knock erupts from my door and I realized that I've locked it.
Very much out of breath, I open the door halfway, not seeing who it was.
"Hold on, let me get dressed."
"What were you doing?"
I froze, knowing the voice like it was my own. I really don't wanna see him right now. I can never get a break, now can I?
"What are you doing here, James"
I fully open the door now.
"I just wanted to stop by and make sure you got home safely."
"James, you know that we live right across the street from each other. You couldn't just look out your window and see that I was home?!"
"Listen, Babygirl, I—"
I cut him off.
"DON'T BABYGIRL, ME! WHY ARE YOU EVEN HERE?!"
"I just wanted to apologize..."
"APOLOGIZE?! FOR WHAT?! PLAYING WITH MY FEELINGS?! SAYING WERE JUST BEST FRIENDS? OR CONTINUING TO CLAIM THAT YOU DON'T HAVE FEELINGS FOR ME WHEN EVERYONE AROUND US KNOWS THAT YOU DO?!"
"WHY ARE YOU PUSHING ME AWAY?!
"BECAUSE YOU'RE FUCKING TOXIC TO MY MENTAL HEALTH!"
"oh..."
"NO, wait James, that's not what I meant"
"No, I think you did."
"I meant that you're constantly confusing me and making me feel like—"
And here we go again...
He's kissing me...
By now, I'm backed up against the door and A Thousand Years by Christina Perri is playing in the background. The craziest part though, the animals in my stomach are going wild, along with my heartbeat...
He pulls back first.
"Fuck..."
"See, this is what I mean. It's like you regret it as soo—"
He kisses me again and slowly pulls back.
"No one ever said anything about regretting that kiss..."
"But, you said earlier that it didn't mean anything"
"Well..."
"I CAN'T DO THIS ANYMORE, JAMES!"
"I don't understand..."
"We need a break. Just time apart from each other. I need to get my head in the right place and you need to get your feelings straight."
"Ok."
"That's all you have to say?!"
"I'm sorry."
"Wait. Why is everything moving so fast between us."
"I don't know, I just— I'll see you later"
"Wait, come here"
We collide into a hug and he returns it along with a kiss on my forehead.
"Goodbye, Bear"
"Goodbye, Babygirl"At that, he leaves my house, closing the door on his way out.
WTF just happened?!...
