Surprises {L.H.} [ON HOLD]

Chapter 9

*Luke*

I had gone the entire weekend without relying to Kylie's messages. I thought this was extremely impressive considering how hard I was falling for this girl. I always tended to fall in love fast. At least that's what she said. I never believed her, but now that I've thought about it I realized that I really do.

Kylie had left multiple messages and calls trying to explain, but I really just wanted to hear it from her in person. I actually didn't know what I wanted to do until this morning. Up until now I just wanted to ignore her for what she did. But I was thinking about it in the shower and thought that maybe I jumped to conclusions and that maybe I should let her try to explain.

I had just parked my car and was walking inside the school when I felt a body latch onto me and almost knock me over.

"I'm so so sorry. I didn't kiss him he kissed me! I swear I didn't! Please forgive me please." Then shyly looking down she muttered " I really missed you this weekend." And looked up at me through her eyelashes. She looked so cute. 

"You're so cute when you blush" I said smirking. Then I grabbed the sides of her face and gently brought our lips together. I felt her begin to smile into the kiss which made me return it. I slowly pulled away but quickly went back in and gave her another small peck before resting our foreheads against each other. She was holding onto my biceps while my hands were still holding her face.

"I forgive you. Besides, we aren't dating anyways" I said quietly. This comment actually made me quite sad. I know I said I would never date anyone after her, but I never thought I'd meet another girl that I really connected with. She told me not to hang up on her, but what else was I supposed to do. I thought she was it for me. I thought we were going to get married and have a life together. 

But things change.

"Why don't you change that?" She asked looking up at me with pleading eyes. I just gazed at her skeptically. "Please Luke. I really like you. Like a lot. And I know you like me or you wouldn't have reacted that way when seeing another guy kiss me." She was still gazing at me with those eyes. But I couldn't. I couldn't do that to her. I pulled my forehead away from hers and just looked at her with a blank look.

"No. I can't. I'm not ready. And I'm not ready to tell you why I'm not ready. So just don't ask again. Please" It was my turn to give her a pleading look. And after that speech I walked away. I couldn't let her know. I couldn't let her in. I'm afraid if I did, she would just run away like everyone else did. 

And I don't think I could deal with her leaving.

School starts tomorrow again and I have gymnastics so I'll try to update again either tomorrow or Tuesday. Same with my other story which you should check out ;p. I'm actually really proud of it.
