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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJKOoKpWka
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgbPmnF3L9
I looked behind them, at the calm golden sea. I felt so lonely. Even with my friends there, I felt alone.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVnLeKx8hn

“Action is the enemy of thought,” I’ve read once.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4zkCQu5i6
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17cDC26Jd3
I got up.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzuwLgdRdl
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDmIbfOosa
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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCKAGeUTG9
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGirvXjxjl
“Damn it!” I told to myself and instead of going down the stairs, I went back into the house.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfzJhu9DPp
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvqPTwMehv
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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dUNiDLE33
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdUv9nhSiH
“What happened?” my best friend asked me, showing up behind me. I showed her my palm with a pained look.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jfHy7OEPc
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhsapqqxcG
“Oh! The first aid kit is in my car. You want me to get it for you?”348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAFBPwZeYl
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBh0PsxZGT
“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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Z0am6IWG2
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OdzVKaik3
The back of the house was almost in the forest, leaving enough clearing for the four cars that got us here.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrFyvwBUCy
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLLVVEXdFs
I looked around, but my friends’ car was nowhere to be seen.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEpmPzT1JT
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-.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmeFBnvLm6
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGYdQa8gFL
I was about to take the last step towards the car, but someone else, was standing in my way.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4NO2gleEz
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHpOaDnuy9
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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gvrTlNHeP
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyISOzFCVBn
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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqtBNfwRz4
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fBL979d2r
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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqKDXbxZP9
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1aWDe7L0g
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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEOoLKoCbQ
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcFapY1quZ
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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4N8Xs1BXUj
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfrTGK5iVT
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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRvY6GvCQ3
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReBpJfbb96
I broke the kiss trying to catch my breath. His hands were on my waist, holding my body to him.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37NpERgvbz
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡON9onLOm5W
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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDDFmN40aM
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWevrkQq9X1
He opened the door to the backseat, pushing me softly into the car and crawled in on top of me.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1iFq41E3G
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4G5VAsAdNc
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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJMCrUfEUa
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJmcdwtaIs
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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhCKQocWEG
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhStpArmjQr
He looked up wondering. I smiled and show him my palm. He shifted himself into a seating position, placing my legs on his lap.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13LEqyqa67
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpJUxhcL8R
“That’s why I came to the car,” I explained. He took my hand in his and gave a gently kiss to my palm.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrRVL6z883
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlf1kEuKtF
“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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMRcSEwAtO
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiFqU7saE1
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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBC4WjU1eRa
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwVGzKId82
“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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBfhrGWxcy
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcl4zFOwFTu
“Look at me,” he ordered in a low soft voice.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0T8BdEnJO
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42UipaTfQg
As our eyes locked, my heartbeat accelerated. I bit my bottom lip.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7LIB5I4d3
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9v4gMxowT6
“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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UJjKh2hOd
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCG6iiBhMz
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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7S12llemk
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfm5LXqzIE
“Talk to me,” he whispered. I lower my eyes, but he moved his face so that he could still see me.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3bifTB0xA
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzC64TALk5
I leaned back on the car seat, my hands fidgeting on my laps.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AOUxJSFaQ
“You’ll leave,” I finally told him, thankful that my voice hadn’t betrayed me.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCTKVPr7Jl
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUC4jpxz6w8
“What do you mean?” he asked confused, turning his body to the side, so that he was facing me.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHr9fXLNXot
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35jf1uthlI
“As soon as I go along with the feelings, you’re going to leave.”
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhha91J97Ec
“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.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNJPxjf1QJ
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsqbmIi1NJ
He was right.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQywsJAWB4M
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4jAulQEPq
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?348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq258mvqGDL
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTwCSKXvYR
“I’m scared,” I whispered. He put his arms around me, pulling me close to him, his face touching mine.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBzlfS46pR
“Don’t push me away,” he breathed in my ear, making me shiver.348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVewjSo5UO3
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMofPxHqJal
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.
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoq9o2yTGwU
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.
348Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlec4ewBS0S
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.
