Always

Chapter Ten: Misters & Pictures

~

   Brian used to kiss my head whenever I was doing something good. 

   It always put a goofy smile on my face. I always knew that when he kissed my head, that he also loved me. He just never admitted it. 

   I never did either and wouldn’t until the right moment. 

   I never did get that moment, because I messed up everything between us, everything that we made. 

   I used to pretend when he wasn’t around to kiss my head I did something good, I’d picture he’d kiss my head, the pretending actually making me feel good inside. 

   I stopped pretending once I drove him off, making my days worse and worse by the second. I only hope and pray that he’ll understand why I did what I did.
