Broken Lovers

Comfortable Around You

Days, weeks, months, they all fly by. We have started spending a lot of time together. We see each other almost everyday. I know you're the bad boy; who doesn't do relationships, only relations. Yet you're different around me. Around me you're soft, you're sweet. You yearn for my kiss, the darkness if your eyes disappear when I'm around. I'm never sure of much anymore, but this I am sure of. Sitting on the unit in the kitchen; I watch as you peacefully make us breakfast.

"What's on your mind Ocean Eyes?"

"The same thing as always; or at least lately babygirl."

"You."

Hoping off the unit; I wrap my arms around him from behind. His heart beat under my hand has become my favorite feeling; and I know it shouldn't be.

"Don't get all mushy on my Ocean Eyes."

"Never in a million years babygirl. Only relations, never relationships."

My arms fall from his body; I rub his back hiding the fact that for some reason, a tear has rolled down my face.

"I'm going to use the restroom, get breakfast done will ya? I'm starving!"

"It'll be done when you come out love!"

Another tear falls, as I shut the door. Love....you dont do relationships remember asshole? Why can't I walk away before I get hurt? Why can't I stay away from him? What is the unusual attraction I have to him? No matter what I do, I always give into him.

*Knocking on the door*

"You ok babygirl? Breakfast is ready."

*Wiping tears from my face*

"Coming, I was just washing my hands."

I walk out and he's standing in the door way. My heart drops, and breath hitches; as it always does when I see him. When did he take his shirt off?

"Eating with no shirt, ehh? Im sure thats how barbarians eat."

He grabs me by my hips and spins me around against the wall.

"Oh shut up babygirl"

Looking at him slightly confused, yet turned on all at once. I ask sarcastically...

"May I help you?"

"You know one day I'm going to show you how you can help me."

He loves to tease me and test my will power. He presses his body against mine; his hands travel behind to my ass, and pulls me closer. I gasp for air, I always forget how to breath when he touches me.

"Breath baby, or you'll finally learn what my lips tastes like, and I won't be able to control myself."

I snap out of it; I won't give him that pleasure. I gently push him off me laughing.

"While you fantasize that I'm wrapped around your finger I'm going to eat Ocean Eyes."

He stays in the hall for a minute, and joins me in the kitchen. I had him His plate; he smiles at me, but I can tell theres something on his mind. I wasn't going to say anything, but he decided he was going to.

Walking over sitting next to me, he kisses me on the cheek, I feel his breath hitch.

"Babygirl what have you done to me?"

"What?"

"I wake up thinking about you, I go sleep thinking about you. My days suck if you're not around. My chest hurts when your mad at me, and I feel lost when your not beside me."

Theres a moment of silence. I just sit there; soaking in what you just said to me. Not knowing what to say or what to do; I look at my good, not longer having am appetite.

"Are you not going to say anything love?"

*Pausing for a moment, I take a deep breath*

"What am I supposed to say Dustin? Relations, not relationships; remember? Then over eggs and bacon you want to throw this s**t at me? What do you want me to say?"

"Say something, do something....Anything!! I want to know what you think! Please babygirl...I need to know."

I sit there a moment; thinking about what to say, what to do. He looks at me with these puppy dog eyes, that melt my heart. I stand up, him naturally putting his hands around my hips as always, I kiss his cheek and linger for a moment.

"I think you need to think about why you constantly remind me why you don't do realtionships. I think you need to think long and hard about what You said, because it completely deminishes you no relationship rule. Get back to me when you have an answer Ocean Eyes."
