It was evening; my favorite time of the day, when the sun was low enough to paint everything orange and hopeful. I was sitting on the porch stairs, watching my friends playing tennis on the warm sand.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXC62qtjnB8
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2Rjnlt9xf
I looked behind them, at the calm golden sea. I felt so lonely. Even with my friends there, I felt alone.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqNKQgGqe6

“Action is the enemy of thought,” I’ve read once.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2E6lvcwnu
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hHT6KJbKk
I got up.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAN6u2z5VSd
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiq3nuhwowo
I was trying to get to my friends, when something I touched, scratched my palm. Drops of blood appeared on my skin. I wiped the blood to see the wound. A long reddish line was drawn across my palm, spitting blood.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYukxxJo54U
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlwGsv9feA
“Damn it!” I told to myself and instead of going down the stairs, I went back into the house.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrTsa0YOuG
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ylc91tAas
I washed my hands trying to clean the wound, though my mind wasn’t there at all. I wondered where he was. I haven’t seen him around. I shook my head trying to stop my thoughts. I can’t think of him. I shouldn’t have.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3b1g66Dxl5
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTmpj6gV1s
“What happened?” my best friend asked me, showing up behind me. I showed her my palm with a pained look.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1K8JJDCUz
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtbloZ8FEr
“Oh! The first aid kit is in my car. You want me to get it for you?”439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pX8DVIj52
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZq4ccApTX
“Nuh. I’ll get it. I can still walk,” I joked as I threw away the towel I was holding and headed out the back.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaIwAbrdsN
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3zoPKz6fa
The back of the house was almost in the forest, leaving enough clearing for the four cars that got us here.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6raEFkgKok
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhqwf00dQp
I looked around, but my friends’ car was nowhere to be seen.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIBNaia2cG
From the corner of my eye I saw him walking somewhere – my eye also finally located the red car I was looking for. I began to walking towards it, looking at my palm and my feet, as I went –never at him-.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyzCIvjU4o
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBUZr5fW1F
I was about to take the last step towards the car, but someone else, was standing in my way.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0mQeVlUrv
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxq4vUGAf2N
I didn’t manage to stop in time and crushed into him. He put his strong arms on my waist, steadying me to my feet.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuYSquWSKo
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5whRjPZVn
We looked each other for a long moment. His grey eyes staring at me, making me dizzy. As I think of the day I first saw him, I don’t remember what he wore or what I said. I only remember those grey tiger eyes looking at me, half closed but with intense gaze that made me feel he could see right through me.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46Omnt6fDX
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmzKlGKB5o
He grinned and opened his mouth to speak but I put my hand over his lips to stop him. I didn’t want him to say anything. I didn’t want him to give me hope. I knew he would leave, taking everything back.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8E6pl8vq04
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcuX4xyFGN
He leaned down slowly – his face only an inch from mine. My heart was pounding in my chest. I put my left hand on his face, touching his cheek, making sure he was really here. His eyes looked into mine, as in looking for something. His fingertips traced my face, from my hair to my neck, leaving a burning feeling behind. His touch distracted me from trying to figure out what he was searching.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCpSjFlNcN
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGa5cCKZAG
I opened my mouth slightly to help in the air. I saw him looking at my lips, then once more at my eyes and before I could think, his lips crushed onto mine. His breath, soft and warm, entered my mouth as his burning lips parted and his tongue touched my bottom lip. I froze for a second but as I recovered, I gasped, kissing him back.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdN6BTLmIh
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zB1JRtjEo
He pulled me into his arms and I clutched onto him, putting my arms around his neck, touching his hair. His kiss was fierce but tender at the same time.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqixwWun5eg
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysf64gmeSF
I broke the kiss trying to catch my breath. His hands were on my waist, holding my body to him.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrLxHaDfag
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOVUM4lnnB
I buried my face against his neck; Taking as much of his smell into my lungs. What a beautiful smell. I sniffed once more, closing my eyes, as his grip tighten. I could stay lost in this nirvana forever.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmZdasWK5N
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2zgVAexNM
He opened the door to the backseat, pushing me softly into the car and crawled in on top of me.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiikccDt8yx
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWJwu1b5v2
He kissed me, softly at first, then more eager. My left hand brushed his back while I run my right, and hurt, hand though his messy hair. I could feel every inch of his body, covering mine. The strange feeling I felt before, came back; he was going to leave; he was going to leave me.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgPxxwjiQd
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAaI0sXZH3
I wanted to tell him not to leave but I couldn’t speak as my mind was clouded by the desire to keep him here. I wrapped my legs around him. His lips moved down my neck, while his right hand moved down my thigh – his touch warm. His left hand caught mine and as it was sour from the cut, I stifled a cry into a whimper, but he noticed.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJ6tuHecqk
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPrRRZ3Z7u
He looked up wondering. I smiled and show him my palm. He shifted himself into a seating position, placing my legs on his lap.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZ2yBuzdKQ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgILKJRRNy
“That’s why I came to the car,” I explained. He took my hand in his and gave a gently kiss to my palm.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7KlCB1orY
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNcH47a0fb
“Where’s the first aid kit?” he asked. His voice, deep and worried, startled me. I looked around for the kit, trying to catch my breath. His one arm was wrapped around my waist and the other rested on my naked legs while I located the kit in the front seat and leaned to catch it.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLR34FuMmV
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHSAc2bwpL
He cleaned the wound carefully as I glanced at him under my lashes. Put a bandage on my palm, closed the kit and put it back on the front seat. I didn’t look at him.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrRDjMZypc
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEktKrC52a
“Thank you” I said, my voice low. He put his index finger on my chin forcing me to turn and look at him. I turned my head but my eyes didn’t meet his.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFNEnwrqJ1
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1YzEjuOyq
“Look at me,” he ordered in a low soft voice.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EK1d9IRyv
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWn63kFACHb
As our eyes locked, my heartbeat accelerated. I bit my bottom lip.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zDgxEDjbm
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMX6IVq0hNK
“What’s wrong?” he asked. I tried to keep my face even. I put my fingertips on his cheek, looking at his face. He was so beautiful. So much that it hurt to look at him. But that pain I could take. I moved closer to kiss him. He didn’t react, trying to understand my reaction.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7qWyRfjx6
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sZGpFGnyt
I kissed him softly, giving him time to kiss me back. He did, but I could tell he was thinking the question he asked me. He pushed me back gently, keeping my face into his hands.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFULKkJ0y1m
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7okDiJ4N6I
“Talk to me,” he whispered. I lower my eyes, but he moved his face so that he could still see me.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIDK58ns2e
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMgHTb22eg
I leaned back on the car seat, my hands fidgeting on my laps.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJoA6EHQYM
“You’ll leave,” I finally told him, thankful that my voice hadn’t betrayed me.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxcYlBlJee
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAhaT0D8Xt
“What do you mean?” he asked confused, turning his body to the side, so that he was facing me.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQLgcS87bc
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3GVy6wBBq
“As soon as I go along with the feelings, you’re going to leave.”
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2l1qLaievT
“No I won’t” he said, his voice sounded promising. That’s what I wanted to avoid. “You’re not even giving me a chance,” he said.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdh1gSXWKpH
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHiggz21za
He was right.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrrXgaYVeH
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseNYDkbXkU
Thousand emotions run through me. What if he left because I didn’t let him in, in the first place? What if I knew he would leave because I never intended to let him stay?439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cuhUGLpx4
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NRlbuZ0zP
“I’m scared,” I whispered. He put his arms around me, pulling me close to him, his face touching mine.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHElxmLC1uy
“Don’t push me away,” he breathed in my ear, making me shiver.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JiWS6IAqu
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVqgRlRomg
I wanted to do that, to open up to him, to make him part of my life, part of myself. I suddenly felt vulnerable and fragile.
“Hold me, please,” I breathed and he pulled me into his arms.
And there, my decision was made.
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCr7YLWOSNB
I would let him in. I would let him see me. I would open up to him. I would give him the chance to prove me wrong. I needed that.
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKV2Owg5Bd5
I kissed the hollow under his ear.
“Stay,” I said in a low voice, my lips never leaving his skin. He stroked my hair and kissed my cheek and I felt the hope rising in my chest.
