-Come with me. -I grab his hand and we both couldn't help but smile at the feeling of our skins touching each other again, after so long.
I push him down the stairs to the kitchen where my brother was sitting in front of a full table.
-Wow, not even on my anniversary there's so much food on the table. -Luke says, and we both laugh, following by the laugh of Cameron.
-I thought that you both could use some food in your systems. You look terrible. If that's what love looks like, I don't want to ever be in love. -My brother says, laughing. -I'm kidding with you guys. But seriously, you both need to eat or when you step outside, you're going to fly with the wind. I made pancakes, some toasts, eggs, and bacon because I don't know what kind of food Luke likes and I was trying to make sure you eat.
-Thank you. You didn't have to. -I say, kissing my brother on the forehead. I missed him too. I hadn't seen him in months and when I finally have the opportunity to, I close myself in my bedroom for a week, only leaving to watch the waves and the sea, trying to stop my mind from overthinking.
I sat on a chair and Luke sits just beside me but on another side of the table. This way I can still look him in the eyes and appreciate every millimeter of his beautiful face but I'm still close enough to him. Today, the last thing I want to do is being away from Luke.
-Shut up and eat. -Cameron says almost forcing me but laughing just after. That's my brother and his weird temper. - I need to go to school so I see you guys later. -he leaves a kiss on top of my head and gives a small, friendly tap on Luke's back before heading off.
-I was thinking you could stay a week or two and maybe we can get back to Sydney? This way I can also show you where I'm from and tell you all my stories like you did and showed me. -I take a bite of a pancake, always looking down to my plate and fork, just to avoid eye contact with Luke because I'm afraid of what he was going to say.
He doesn't say a thing for a moment - a moment that seemed it lasted for years and years. I was starting to beat myself mentally again before looking at him and seeing a huge smile on his beautiful face.
-That means you're coming back with me? - I nod and his smile grows even bigger. Even when I thought he couldn't look even more beautiful, he seems to always surprise me with something that makes me think otherwise. He pauses for a moment to absorb the information what made me think that he doesn't want to stay here at all.
-I mean, you don't have to stay, we can go tomorrow or so... -I look down at my plate again waiting for an answer.
-We are staying for as long as you want. I'm sorry, I'm still trying to process that you're going to stay with me in Sydney. I would love to stay here with you for a while. I would love to get to know your hometown, to hear your stories about this place, to know your friends... everything! -He places his hand on my thigh and grabs it while leaving a kiss on my lips. This moment sent shivers down to my whole body, making it shake. I didn't know how much I needed and missed the little things he did, until now.
-Thank you. -I say before resting my head on his shoulder. His head touches mine and seconds after we are eating again. -I still can't believe you sang to me yesterday.
-Me neither but you were always saying how much you like to hear me sing and I needed to do something big for you, cause you deserve it after what I did. -He smiles but I can tell it's not totally a happy smile.
-Can we not talk about what happened this week, today? I really want us to be good today, forget this week at all. We can't spend the rest of our lives talking about this. It happened and there's nothing we can do to take what we did back but we can make our lives better from now on and I think that's what matters the most now. The rest's in the past! -I say and he nods, agreeing with me.
-You're right. Let's make the most of these days. -He smiles. -I was thinking that maybe we can go to the beach today? I miss going to the beach with you! -He says but immediately regrets the last part. -I mean, I miss going to the beach! -he reformulates his sentence and we both laugh.
The little things like this are the things that matter the most like laughing together... like his touch or his little soft kisses... the hours I spend lost in his eyes... the little things like this were what I missed the most!
