I opened my eyes and it was dark. It took a few minutes for my eyes to adjust to the darkness. I could finally take in my surrounding.

I was laying on a soft matrass, feels just like my bed. There was light illuminating from outside into the room

Wait, this is my room.

How did I get here? The last thing I remember was I on my way home, and then...oh shit

I threw the blankets off my body in an attempt to jump out of bed

"Ouch" I pursed

Somebody just spoke

I kicked in front of me again

"Ouch! Wtf" the voice complained

Wait

Aliyah?

What's she doing here

I turned quickly to switch on my bedside lamp

The brightness from the light hurt a little but I ignored it.

She kept her eyes closed. Clearly not making any attempts to explain why she's on my bed

"Aliyah wake up" I said shaking her

She opened her eyes lazily

"What? I'm trying to sleep"

Are you kidding me?

I ripped the blanket off her body. She curved her body like a ball like she was cold

"Cover me" she spoke pouting

"Better still" she continued "hold me"

I kept quiet not knowing how to react. Why did anyone let her in?

When did she get here and how did I get here

Is she aware of what she just said? Cause her eyes are still closed

I made an attempt to wake her up again

"Aliyah"

I tried to push her off, but she grabbed my hand as gently as she could, pulling me into her. She placed my head gently, resting it on her chest

"Shuuush" she whispered

"I know you don't want me here. But can we stay like this for just tonight? I can't help that I'm falling in love with you"

My heart was beating fast, did she just say that.

I tried to break free but she held on, not so much that it would hurt, with my face still pressed to her chest

"Let me hold you just this once"

"Please"

I relaxed in her hold, I couldn't do anything. Deep down I know I didn't want to move from this position. I've missed her so much

"How nice" she muttered sleepily

I'm like the most confused human on the planet right now. What do I really want?

By morning when I woke up she was gone. I checked my time it was only six in the morning

I got out of bed, heading for my bathroom. I need water therapy. I still haven't shaked the feeling from last night

I missed it

When I got out, I dressed up, getting ready for school. 'My life'.

I'm starting to think that there's no point to all these. I should just stay indoors all day, while i Netflix and chill with my dying self. For some reasons I would love to add a second party

ALIYAH'S POV

Yesterday when I saw Ava laying on the cold floor I panicked. I didn't know what to do

I was conflicted on whether to call her parents. Ben wasn't picking his calls so I ending up going to her place

She was breathing just fine and her pulse was regulated, so what could have happened?

"We need to talk" I looked up noticing Ava beside me

"Em, what about?" I tried to act indifferent.

"About.. Everything"

What does this mean

I told myself after last night that staying away is for the best. Even though my heart wouldn't allow it but there's nothing I could do about it

"Look Ava I don't..." Before I could finish my sentence, in a very swift move, she brought her face to my level and locked her lips with mine. More like a peck on the lips.

It was so brief but yet the sensation lingered

I was in shock.

It felt as though I instantly lost my senses. Everything was frozen

"Aliyah you're going to have to close your mouth before you catch a fly".

"Aliyah?"

Not getting a response,she turned around to leave but I stood up quickly.

I grabbed her hand gently, pulling her close to me.

Before our bodies could meet I placed my hand underneath her jaw, slightly guiding her lips to mine

The moment our mouths connected it was like fireworks

Technically everything in my head exploded.




🙂I always felt Aliyah would be the one to make the first move🤷
