"You know most people go to clubs or social gathering to find a date, not a fucking prison."
21 year old Melody didn't know what she was getting herself into when she decided to crush on the man in uniform.
Little did she know following the man in u...
I roll my eyes at him, "if movies used logic, there would be no movies,"
He shrugs, "but still, if it's meant to be, it'll find another way to be. So, if Rapunzel was to always find out the truth, she'll find it some way or another."
Confused I turn to Cayden, only to find him already staring at me, he looked in a daze, "are we still talking about Tangled?" I ask. This conversation felt way too deep to be about Rapunzel finding out she's a princess.
Cayden looks down, a ghostly smile on his face, "I think we are,"
"Hm, okay," I nod, turning back to the screen, still a little confused. What was that about?
.
.
I quietly made my way downstairs and into the kitchen, dropping onto the stool with a sigh, can't believe I'm having to sneak around my own house.
It's been a week and all I could say is, this ignoring my feelings was starting to feel more like a burden, I feel like I'm walking around with a time bomb taped to my chest, just waiting for the right moment to explode. Boom.
Today I decided to starve myself, going straight to bed, which was clearly a mistake because now my stomach won't let me sleep.
Sighing I get up and open the fridge, pulling out the leftover pasta and warming it in the microwave. They really need to make a night mode for microwaves.
I was about to turn around to grab myself a fork, when a voice startles me, causing me to gasp loudly and flinch;
"What are you-sorry, didn't mean to scare you," Cayden says, I turn around to glare at him, finding him rubbing his eyes as he slots himself on the stool, "what are you doing up so late?"
I walk over to the drawer, grabbing a fork, "I got hungry. Sorry, did I wake you up?" I turn around, my back to Cayden.
"I'm a little sleeper," I hear him say, the same time the microwave dings.
Getting my food out, I walk towards the stool besides Cayden, don't be so obvious.
But clearly I was, "You trying to figure out how to avoid sitting here," he points, completely catching me off guard, erm...
I quickly shake my head and sit beside him, "don't know what you're talking about," not bothering to turn to him, I concentrate on my food.
I hear him sigh, "why have you been avoiding me?" Geez, straight to business, he continues, "did I do something wrong? What happened?"
I shake my head, "no, it's not you." It's me, I've lost my mind.
"Then?" He asks, I slouch while sighing loudly, I think I've got myself stuck in a ditch, Cayden continues, "Melody?"
Taking a deep breath, I decide to just get this weight of my chest, "because...because I think I'm falling in love with you." This is part where I run and jump of a cliff.
I don't dare look up at Cayden, just pushing my food around the container, waiting for the rejection, but instead, I get;
"Wha-Melody," he calls, but my eyes stay glued on the pasta, until I feel cold hands touch the side of my face, turning it to look up at him, Cayden was standing up now and he was closer. Tick. Tick. Tick
He was staring at me with so much admiration as if I just gave him the world. Nah buddy, I just gave you extra baggage.
"Well, there goes your rule No.4," he says lowly with a small smile, "just one problem," he leans closer, just inches from me, lips hovering over mines, "If I kiss you, I don't know if I'll be able to stop." Tick. Tick. Tick
I didn't trust my voice right now instead, I close my eyes, until I feel a soft touch on my lips, barely a brush but, I still felt it ignite my whole body.
Boom.
