He was so intoxicating. His look, the way he towered over me, his smell, and most of all his voice. . I don't want any connections while I'm here so I can't be nice to him but it's hard to say no to him. For some reason he makes me feel things. I hate it.
I sat on his couch while he went to go get us water. For two men living in this apartment, it looks really neat.
" Ace" my head turns towards Sal as he says my name softly.
" your hair is pretty," he says. My hair is black and blonde underneath, it goes right past my shoulders. I almost blush. I hate that he makes me like this. I don't blush. He hands me a glass of water, I turn my head to the side. I see a little chubby catwalk in.
"that's Gizmo," he says as he points at the cat. The cat jumps on the couch and gets onto my lap. "no Gizmo stop" Sal says motioning his hands at the cat.
"he's fine Sal," I say and pet the cute cat on my lap. He rolls onto his back and I giggle.
I pause, did I just giggle?
oh my god, I've completely lost myself since I've been here. I'm blushing and giggling and actually enjoying the company of this boy. He just stares at me and sits down next to me. I could tell he was smiling because his mask was slightly raised. He puts his hand next to mine I flinch. I'm not good when guys move too fast around me, not when I feel vulnerable like I do around him.
"I'm not going to hurt you, I promise"
That was a lie
-SAL'S POV-
"he's fine Sal," she says as she pets Gizmo. She giggles, and my heart stops. That was the fucking cutest thing I have ever seen. I smile and sit next to her. I put my hand next to her and look up and move closer. She flinches back again and I frown a bit. "I'm not going to hurt you, I promise"
Her phone rings. fuck
She quickly stands up and answers it knocking Gizmo off of her lap. She's talking fast so it's hard to understand what she is saying.
"Of course I am. I promise" She says quickly. She starts gathering her things and walking towards the door. I walk up to her and put a hand on her shoulder.
"where are you going,? don't leave" I beg.
"Uh, no one." She says into the phone panicked. 'im sorry' she mouths. She opens the door and leaves, walking very fast down the hall. What the hell was that?
This is the first time I've felt like this before and I want to keep feeling it. But I only feel it when she's around.
I walk to my room and fall down on my bed, She makes me smile.
