Why Are You Leaving So Soon

Chapter 3

I woke up the next day I just laid there staring at the ceiling I just wanted to die right there in my bed. I need to see Henry and be able to enjoy every moment before he leaves. First things first I need to get ready for school and go see Henry. I put on the cutest outfit in my closet which is a cute flowery crop top, black jeans, and my favorite wedges. I just did my make up quickly and curled my hair lightly, so it was slightly wavy. I looked in the mirror one last time took a quick deep breath and headed downstairs to see my dad.

“Morning Mary you look pretty why are you so dressed up.” I looked at what I was wearing and then back at my dad. “Dad really this is dressed up I wouldn’t call this dressed up and thank you though I need to head out so I can get some coffee on the way to school,” I gave my dad a quick hug then grabbed my bag and my keys. “Why I can make your coffee will save you money and the gas I know how much you hate wasting money that doesn’t need to be wasted.”

“Yeah, but I really want something different today and I am meeting Henry too.” I lied I wanted to get Henry his favorite coffee and breakfast from our favorite little coffee shop. “Oh, ok well drive safe I am going to be working late tonight so I left some leftover or you can make yourself something else.” He took a sip from his black coffee. “Ok, I will figure out what I am going to do love you daddy.” I gave him a quick hug “Bye love you too Mar.”

I ran to my car and drove off to my favorite little coffee shop. I ordered mine and his favorite coffee and breakfast. He loves his triple espresso latte and his breakfast sandwich that I think is gross since all it is grease. I always get my signature double shot mocha latte with almond milk also a chocolate croissant lightly buttered. I quickly paid for our drinks and left. I quickly drove to school grabbed my stuff and headed to that corner with all my so-called friends and I saw him laughing that gorgeous laugh that always makes me smile. “Hey guys how are you guys and I got you something.” I handed him his coffee and his sandwich he gave me a warm hug. He looked in the bag then took a big swig of his coffee then said “Thanks, but why did you go all your way to get this for me.” He took a sip of his coffee giving me his signature smile. “I wanted to surprise you and I need to talk to you in private please.”

“Ok let’s talk we have a lot we need to talk about.” We walked to the gate outside of the football field and I just looked at his beautiful eyes before he started to talk. “About last night I am sorry that I kissed you.” I took a sip from my coffee. “Why are you apologizing for I kissed you back I wanted you to kiss me I have always wanted you to kiss me and I have always wanted you to tell me how you felt about me.” He came closer putting his hands on my waist and I could feel his breath on my lips he was so close to me only inches away. His nose brushed against mine only for a second, I could feel this bolt of electricity through my body for the second our skin touched. “You have beautiful eyes Mar, beautiful smile, hair, and just everything you are beautiful” I stared in his beautiful eyes. “Like what do I do that is so beautiful to you” I felt my breath hitch when I felt his lips kiss my neck, he slowly traveled up my neck to my jaw while his hands traveled up my body slowly. “The way you get so happy when you see your favorite food, the way you laugh at my stupid jokes that aren’t even remotely funny and the way you dance to a song like no one is watching.” He kissed my cheek he was holding me so close to him and he just stared at my eyes. He moved his gaze to my lips I wanted him to kiss me again I need to have his lips on mine. “Kiss me, Alexander Henry.” At that second, he kissed me it wasn’t like the first kiss it had more heat and passion that build up fuels a kiss makes you want more than just a f*****g kiss I wanted him all of him. I lightly pulled his hair hearing him groan while his hands played in my hair. We kissed for what felt like years I did not even realize that he had pushed me against the gate of the football field or that we were at school.

“We need to get to class Mar I will see you after school.” He kissed my head and then walked into the school.
