14 Years [GNR/Mötley Crüe]

13. DUDE!DUDE!DUDE DUDE!

Nadia:

It was uncomfortable, to say the least. Walking around in a skirt was exactly as awkward as I thought it would be; especially when I had to climb out of my window using the branch of a tree as a bridge. I also realized how much effort he must've been putting on every single night for the past one month just to see me. For me.

If I was a sculptor, ha

But then again, no

Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show

I know it's not much, but it's the best I can do

My gift is my song, and this one's for you Pssssaaat crnkllsht psssshtt...

"Are you kiddin' me?!" I heard him groan from the front seat as the radio continued to crackle and Elton John's singing came out as words with a robotic tone to it.

"Why are you getting annoyed? Just turn it off." I laughed from the back seat not peeling my attention away from the window which was slowly turning opaque and milky as a few drops of mist dripped down leaving long trails behind.

"I spend like 600 bucks on this stupid shit! Of course, I will be annoyed." He said which was followed by the sound of a smack and Oww before the song started again.

WILLIAM

I felt the tip of my index turn numb as I traced out his name onto the window veiled in a thick layer of fog. I smiled as golden rays of the street lamp that made its way into the car through the gaps of his name reflected back onto the roof of the car.

My heart skipped a beat upon feeling his arm curl around my waist before I relaxed into his body, just staying still as I watched his free hand take hold of my right hand, wrapping his fingers around my index and guiding it towards the window.

NADIA

I could feel my face brighten up. A giddy feeling of happiness streaked up from the pit of my stomach, the kind of feelings that I have never felt until a month ago as I read our names together.

I tilted my head, my eyes meeting his, as he looked down at me with the same delight I knew was there in my face resonating on his. My hand thrummed to reach out and caress his face that was drenched in gold as light from the street crept into the car but before I could he leaned down and pressed his lips against my temples.

I didn't know I liked being kissed and hugged as much as I did now. I never felt a lack of it in my life but I was now certain that I would feel a huge hole in my heart if this ever stopped.

"Come..." He said softly before moving away from me that he was leaning against the door and I was leaning against his chest. My head resting on the crook of his neck and my arms wrapped around him in a loose embrace.

"You know Robert wrote this song for Maureen to express how thankful he was to have her. She helped him a lot before he became famous. Even financially." I said as I heard Thank You start playing once Your Song was over. He hummed. Maybe he knew, I thought. He was the one who made this tape with both of our favorite bands in it.

"You think we will be together in the future long enough for you to be my Maureen?" He asked making me frown. I don't know the answer to that and I don't want to try to answer it either.

"Hmm? Maybe in ten years? You think we will be together?" He asked again

"Maybe not. Maybe I might not even wanna see your face in ten years." I shrugged my shoulder. Things don't often go the way we want but rather in the exact opposite direction. So, maybe if I say we won't be together.....
