Vinnie rested his callused fingers against he vanilla sofa and sighed a deep breath. "Can we just... not talk about this?" He finally rasped as if he were out of breath but some part of him were.
Those words sent a chill through Lake. The obvious questions ran through her head. About which part? Are you ok? Did my breath stink? She asked the one that circled her mind the most.
"About which part?" She demanded, her determination sent a sting of regret through her body as vinnie looked at her with red eyes and some sort of lustful way. He stared at her as a hundred decisions ran wild in his head.
"Would you kiss me again?" Vinnie halfway avoided the question but it was a shame because he couldn't stop staring at the girls pinkish lips and her flushed face. The way she was eyeing and recording vinnies every reaction. Her eyes bulged at the question almost making vinnie chuckle.
"I-I mean yeah but I wanted to know how you were feeling and I didn't really know if my breath stinks or not..." she mentioned doubtfully, smelling her own breath before Vinnie cupped her round face and kissed her once again.
Somehow her eyes drifted backwards and she fell into a trance as he let go of her. Her eyes stared at him in confusion to the abrupt stop. As if she were magnified to him she kissed him, pulling the heat between the two of them closer to her.
Building up all of their tension with a bigger and bolder kiss. The two took short ending breathes between each kiss before blindly moving onto the couch. Vinnie flinched as he imagined the ways he wanted to hold Lake, to make her his, and to show her a good time. She kissed him while he through distracted and distant.
She pulled on curly tuffs of his hair wishing he'd do the same to her. She looked up from under him realized that he wasn't even paying attention to anything she was doing. How long had he been thinking? How didn't I notice.
"Vinnie what's going on?... " as much as Lake wanted what they were doing to never end she cared for vinnie way more. He looked at her, he wasn't sad or glooming he was disappointed and transfixed kn something else. "Are you okay? I'm sorry for um rushing you and forcing you." She muttered an apology.
She had never felt so stupid and selfish in her entire life. She wanted it so badly that she pressured vinnie and now he wanted nothing to do with her. "We can't do this.." he sighed before getting off the couch. Her heart almost stopped when she heard those words but she let him continue.
The entire time Vinnie was thinking of Lake as a little sister and a best friend that he had to protect. From creeps and weirdos but he felt like one because they never discussed what they were doing. He wanted to kiss her more than anything in the world and just a few days ago the thought of kissing her would've never crossed his mind.
He needed time to figure things out. The worst part was that he didn't even have that. He was never going to see her again which made hooking up with her even more selfish. He couldn't stand long distance especially not with her, it would be difficult.
"No I mean this with us.." he said looking at her and he could feel he cringe with pain, he wanted to look away but he could already see the hurt in her eyes, "I just think it's a bad idea." He told the truth, he wish it weren't.
"Really. So you decided to make out with me and get my hopes up just to say it's over?" Lake tired to do that usual thing she did by chuckling to things that made her sick but it came out as more of a soft whimper of some sort. He wanted to feel her but that would make things worst.
"I wasn't getting your hopes up I just wanted to know what kissing you would feel like and now I know." Vinnie subconsciously added a shrug which was probably the most douchebag thing he'd done in his life. And it was the one sentence he'd forget saying forever. It was more than that and he knew it. He could've said.
"Lake I love you and I'm going to keep doing that until our time runs out because when I come back we'll have all the time we need... kissing you isn't a game to me, I need you and I need to know that you feel the same way."
But he didn't. And as soon as he said that a part of Lake cracked. She didn't want to believe that her best friend was a scumbag, that he would ever say that to her or about her. He's just upset he didn't mean it... she tired to act like his words didn't sting the way they did. But hadn't even said anything about the way he felt with kissing her, just that he wanted to.
They've been friends for so long maybe that was really it. He never saw her in that way and now that he's leaving he wanted to see how it would feel to kiss his best friend. While for her she was chasing the boy she was in love with for years. For her kissing him felt right, comfortable, charming, like they were finally connected to each other in a way nobody else knew.
"Vinnie you're just saying that I've known you for the longest and you'd never... do that to me." The end of her sentence sounded like a question. And vinnie caught onto that which made him become pained. Lake started believing that he'd do that to her, she didn't have much of a choice but neither did he. Cutting her off would be an easy way to say goodbye.
"Lake I'm not attracted to you and I'm sorry that you feel that way about me but I'm literally like your older brother and we've been best friends forever I don't get how you would think it's anything more." What was ironic about the situation was that vinnie was talking to a wall while he said this. All his family portraits were hung up and staring at him in disappointment.
There was no way he was going to say that to her face. He could imagine it, her bottom lip quivering and her eyes bubbling with tears, her entire face puffy. But so was his and he wasn't going to turn around.
Lake choked on a tear and wiped her face, "you're a pussy vinnie literally turn around and say that shit to my face. you're a liar, if you were telling the truth you'd look me in the eye!" She tested she kept pushing him even though they were both liars what he was doing was worst. He was punishing her emotionally, he never did that which meant something was eating at him.
"Lake can you leave already? Did you want me to take advantage of you or something? You're always dressing like you want attention. Everyone can see that. You're just like your sister. We should just be friends, that's what I agreed to." Vinnie had never insulted Lake or anybody like that in his entire life. His eyes were filled with tears, he kept them shut so I he could drown out what he was feeling.
"Vinnie I don't know when I'll see you when you leave." She said softly, he wanted to hug her, "and i don't know when I'll see you again in a few weeks or months or years... but by then I hope you burn in hell you fucking asshole." Lake stormed out, leaving her jacket and vinnie behind. He took a deep breath.
"It's for the best..."
