"Mary May, do you know how long I looked for you? Do you know how much I worried?" His blazing blue eyes bore into me.
"I..I'm.. so"
"No. Your not. If you were, you wouldn't have left without telling anyone! I called everyone! Your parents. Kristine. Hell, I even called Rob! Do you know how long I searched?" He ran his hand through his hair, a tell-take sign of his frustration.
"I..I don't..."
"7 hours! 7 fucking hours! Whether you realize it or not..." He suddenly stopped his pacing and turned to me, looming over me with our chests touching. "...I care about you. I do! I worry and care!"
Then I broke. Tears raced from my eyes, down my cheek, and onto his light blue shirt. He wrapped his arms around me, pulling me closer. I was now bubbling random words into his chest, trying to apologize.
"Shhhh, it's ok. Don't cry. Shhhh." We sat down together, him not letting go and me not wanting to leave.
"Whatever happens May, we will get through it. Together. Like we always do."
When I looked up, I saw him. The real Jessie. His blue, crystal clear eyes were filled we so many emotions. He was always there for me. So, like any cliche movie, I did the first thing that came to my mind.
I kissed him.
"Well, Mia...come here," She ordered, tilting her head as she spoke to me. Mindlessly, I took a few steps towards her and then stopped, deciding that we were close enough.
She took one large step towards me, almost completely closing the gap between us as she towered over me in her heels. She wrapped her arms around my waist and pulled me closer, so our fronts were now pressed together. She leaned down to my ear and asked, "Do you want me to take care of you or not?"
"Yes," I whispered, and with that she leaned down to press our lips together, kissing me as her tongue slipped past my lips. My arms moved around her neck as I pulled her further down into me, deepening the kiss. She moved me until my back was pressed up against the sink.
