I stood up walked around the table and sat down again, he looked confused but I ignored that -I couldn't believe he almost kissed me. This was so not what I expected he doesn't deserve me , I'm too imperfect for him, I'm too fake . Behind these baggy clothes are memories I could never push pass me , he can't be with me - HE JUST CAN'T !
*
" Behind those drawings of yours that you just drew is power and spirit but not only that -there is you " Joey leaned against the table and came closer after speaking " there is sadness in those perfected eyes of yours ; there is misery in that heart of yours , you just like a rose - once plucked it leaves its roots and stays with the person who plucked it " I narrowed my eyes at him " You wrong ! I'm not and I wont stay with the person because I'm not a rose and can never be one , I'm not worthy of that title - I'm too common to be with a rose ." Joey looked at me with such concern " if only you could see how wrong you are " I couldn't handle the conversation any more so I got up and walked away .
*
The past few days were just awful , his words were so bitter when I thought of it- how could he be so selfish in the way he thought of me.
*
I walked in the corridors but somehow I kept on getting looks from everyone and now I was getting really worried .
*
I was standing in the library looking at the shelves and then I picked this book and I immediately felt this burning sensation in my index finger , DAMN IT ! I got a paper cut. I looked up and noticed Joey standing there , I stared at him and our eyes locked. " Let me see ! " Joey crept closer to me and pulled me into him, " if you don't take care of yourself I'm going to have to.'
[ JOEY'S POV ]
She just looked at me and I wanted to get a reaction from her " why do you care , you shouldn't worry about me !" April told me ,voicing her feelings. " Are you kidding me ? you really expect me to believe that you can take care of yourself !" April tried getting out of my arms " could you perhaps let me go ? "
*
I put my finger on her lip and whispered so she could hear me " let go of everything and be here with me ! " she looked at me and lowered her eyes to my finger on her lip, " Joey don't make this difficult for me!" now she was testing my patience. I removed my finger from her lip and lowered myself to her height which by the way wasn't very short. I looked into her eyes and then my gaze went down to her lips - I put my hand under her chin so she could look at me properly , I then kissed her very passionately.
*
It was a soft passionate kiss which I would gladly dream about every day , everything about her makes me want to be with her ;her beautiful angelic eyes , her soft blonde hair. The feel of her hands in mine ; her natural scent of chocolate and that smile of hers that captivates me every time. She was still recovering from our passionate kiss - I can't blame her though there was so much suspense leading to it.
*
I was approaching my first class when I got stopped due to girls hanging around me and flirting endlessly, I didn't want to be aggressive so I excused myself and they were so disappointed but I didn't care because the only girl I could ever look at with pure love was April .
*
At the end of my classes I walked around school looking for April , people were literally staring at me as I was run walking to find her - what could I do ? I was missing her. I found her and she came towards my direction and immediately intertwined our hands and we walked off in the direction of the sunset.
*
I looked at her again , she was just something else , something special but then yet again so was OUR UNRULY LOVE !!!
