Eyes
Her eyes were dangerous. I'd decided that from minute one I'd met her. Big pools of molten sapphire. They just seemed to stare straight inside me, seemed to see things no-one else could.
Of course that part was an illusion. She couldn't really see inside me. That would be freaky. I had locked myself up so tight. No-one had come close to unravelling the mazes and tricks and false fronts I put up. The person who had come closest was Solidad, but she didn't know half of it.
But when I looked into those eyes, I felt everything I'd set up, all the defences I'd put up to defend myself, melt away. Only felt it. She couldn't unravel me that easy. No-one could.
I was like those Japanese puzzle boxes; only the owner could undo them. It took years for anyone else to decode them and May most definitely had not known me enough years yet. There was no way she'd be decoding my puzzle yet just because she gorgeous eyes. Arceus!
Why did she have to have such beautiful eyes? She was my rival for goodness sake! I couldn't afford to spend time getting lost in those eyes of her. Yes, it was getting that bad. You know that cheesy pick up line 'Hey do you have a map, because I think I just got lost in your eyes'? Well, don't even joke about it. I was literally lost in her eyes and I could never find my way back out. Her eyes were a maze. I was thoroughly lost.
"Hey Drew!" Speaking of which.
"Hey May," I said, "What's going on?" She looked up. Must refrain from those eyes. I bit my lip, hard, to stop myself from looking in her eyes.
"I just wanted to say, look! I got my first Johto ribbon!" she exclaimed happily. I made the mistake of looking up. Arceus, there I go again. Ooh, I never noticed she had darker blue flecks in her eyes. That's something new. Mustn't have been this close to her before. See, look, her eyes were literally a maze. I could see it in those flecks. Hmm, maybe if I solve this, I can find my way out.
"Hey Drew," she called, waving her hand in front of my face, "Are you ok?" I blinked.
"Yeah, why?" I said.
"You just spaced out on me," she said, "it's really weird. Usually by now you would've said something teasing or something."
"I do?" I asked. I'm sorry, I'm just too caught in those eyes.
"Yes, are you sure you're ok?" she asked, "You look kind of dazed. Are you sick?" Maybe. Sick of being stuck in your eyes.
"I don't think so," I said, "do I look sick?"
"You're acting sick," she replied. Yeah, totally love sick…for your eyes I mean. Gosh this is weird. Drew what are you thinking?
"Well, even if I am sick, I'd still beat you," I said, trying to save some of my dignity. Stop looking into those whirlpools! I commanded myself, you're only making this worse.
"Not if you keep spacing out like this," she said.
"Hey what?" I questioned, "I didn't just space out."
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure you're sick," she said, "your face is all red and you still look dazed."
"I'm all red?" I questioned. I put a hand on my cheek. It was hot. Really hot. Maybe I am sick. Is this the consequences of losing your way in bright blue eyes.
"Yes you are," she said, "now I think I'll go so you can recover. I'll see you when you're better." She turned and walked away. Only one thought entered my head. She didn't let me finish that maze.
A/N: I know this wasn't most voted on the poll I put up ages ago, but I really couldn't help myself. I had the ideas for this just pour into my brain and I couldn't wait any longer.
So I hope you like it. It'll get something off my list at least. And it's the less pressurizing story I could do for the next few days. I want to put stuff up, but I have a few assessments coming up, so this was a good option seeing as I haven't had to think much for this one.
So I hope you like. Wait...I've already said that haven't I?
Review and tell me what you thought of it. What do you think is next?
