How To Be: Punk || Mericcup ✔ EDITING

Chapter 16: Love Me For Who I Am

"This is amazing! Is this why you came here?" I asked.
She nodded with a bright smile.
"This only happens once a year you know, when the sky looks this beautiful." She smiles softly, sitting down, her feet dangling off the edge of the building.
"This is so cool..." I say under my breath, sitting down next to her.

She chuckles as her sapphire eyes seem to almost glow, her milky white skin glistens in the starlight like a thousand diamonds.

Maybe I should ask her...

"So, um, have you made up your mind for tomorrow? About the whole ball thing, of course." I asked.
"Well...I haven't been asked by someone I like or at least someone I can go with...so I guess it's a no." She shrugs, looking a little disappointed.
"Someone you like?" I questioned.
"Umm...Yeah." She says with a slight smile, putting a strand of hair behind her ear. "...it's because of this whole labeling thing."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, being labeled as a punk, or a popular...it's a pain in the ass. It's like putting boundaries on people, and hurts to know you can't be with someone because of who you are, or what you do."

I looked at her with surprise.

Looks like me and her feel the same way.

"Well, what if a person tried to change for someone because they thought they wouldn't love them the same if they wouldn't?" I asked.
"If a person really loves you, they won't care what you are, how you look, they love you...for you." She stated.
I stayed silent.

Would that mean...I have a chance?!

I scoot close to her, still looking ahead.
This whole time...I've been blinder than I already am.

The breeze hits our faces and her hair flows back.
Even the sky wasn't beautiful enough to compare to her.

"Merida..." I say in almost a whisper, turning to see her.
"Yeah, Hic?" She speaks softly, turning her head to lock her gaze with mine.
"I..." I trailed off drawing closer to her, as she was as the two of us close our eyes.
"I lov-" I stopped myself, moving away as We opened our eyes.
"I-I better go." I say nervously as I blushed, quickly standing up.
"Oh..um..ok.." She says.
"Yeah, I-I'll see you." I stuttered, quickly walking back down the ridged stairs, out the building. Once I reached town, I unintentionally start to run.

I stopped at my house, looking at her door and sighed.

God...what's wrong with me?

I walked inside, closing the door and slowly. Toothless docks his head to the side at me in confusion as he follows me up to the bedroom.
I closed the door and threw myself on the bed.

This is amazing! This is beyond what I could've wished with for!

It felt awesome knowing all of this, coming from Merida.
I never knew she would feel this way...
I smiled, looking at the knocked down guitar on the floor. I picked it up, leaning back on the head board of my bed.

But what if she doesn't feel the same?

I groan on the inside, torn in every direction.
I'm so tired of feeling this way...
I strum her guitar and sigh once more.

(Play music now)

"Am I allowed to look at her like that?
Could it be wrong, when she's just so nice to look at?

And she smells like lemongrass and sleep
She tastes like apple juice and peach
You would find her in a polaroid picture,
And she,
She means everything to me.

I'd never tell
No I'd never say a word
And oh it aches, it aches,
But it feels so good to hurt.

She smells like lemongrass and sleep
She tastes like apple juice and peach
You would find her in a polaroid picture,
And she,
She means everything to me
And she,
She means everything to me,

and I'll be okay
Admiring from afar,
Cause even when she's next to me
We could not be more far apart.
Cause she tastes like birthday cake and storytime and fall,
But to her,
I taste of nothing at all.

'Cause she smells like lemongrass and sleep
She tastes like apple juice and peach
You would find her in a polaroid picture,
And she,
She means everything to me.
And she,
She means everything to me.
Oh..."

I took a deep breath in, then out, zoning out until I heard a beeping noise from my phone. I quirked an eyebrow, picking up my phone.

Mer_Bear: I really like your song :)

My eyes widened a bit as I walked over to the blinds, moving to see a sound asleep Merida, peacefully lying on her bed.
A smile spread across my face with a small chuckle.

Cute...
