I honestly didn't mean to do it. It just kind of happened. I couldn't help myself. I didn't have any self-control left, so I leaned in and kissed him. But he didn't say anything. The only thing that came out of him was that smile I often fantasize about, only now it was different. My skin suddenly felt hot and my heart thudded against my chest. Yet, Marth didn't say a word. He didn't even flinch.
I was getting a bit irritated. He never brought it up which made me think he didn't care. My mind wouldn't rid of his face the moment I kissed him. I wanted to see him react. Why didn't he say anything? I thought it'd be best if I didn't attempt to do it again. Maybe he just didn't know what to say. I couldn't risk it. But I couldn't resist either. Every time we were alone, I'd kiss him again…and again…and again. Not once did he reject me. Never turned away. Never asked about it.
Does he think I'm just joking around? I decided that enough was enough. Weeks had passed and I didn't kiss him at all…but now it's getting rather difficult. Sitting in front of him with all our friends around, I knew it was time for me to go or else I'd do something I know I'd regret. "Hey guys, I'm gonna head out now." Pit looked at me and huffed. "You're no fun, Roy."
As I threw my jacket on, I was surprised to hear Marth's voice call after me. "I'll walk you to the station," he said as he followed behind me. "Marth, it's ok. I know how to get there," I chuckled as I waited for him to catch up. However, I was quite nervous because I knew we'd be alone again.
Once we were a few blocks away from the station, he stopped in his tracks. "Aren't you going to do it?" he asked and I could hear a hint of sadness in his voice. So, I turned around to face him and kissed him. As I pulled away, I cursed under my breath and ran for the station.
I promised myself I wouldn't do this anymore. Marth is too innocent. He doesn't even know why I'm doing it. He'll probably hate me once he figures it out. After all, I never did give him a proper confession. I sighed as I sat on the bus. My head started to hurt as much as my heart did. Seeing his face, he looked so disappointed when I left. But I can't seem to control myself whenever we're…alone. It suddenly hit me.
'Roy, can you come with me to the bathroom?'
'I'll walk you to the station.'
'Do you need help with that?'
'Let me show you where it is.'
'I'll stay with Roy. We'll catch up with you guys later.'
It was all a set up. HE…was trying to get…ME…alone with…HIM…because HE…likes…ME… I instantly gave myself a face palm before taking the next bus over to his house. I rang his doorbell, but it seems he wasn't home yet, so I decided to sit on his steps. I ended up sitting there for half an hour before he came back.
"R-Roy? What are you doing here? I thought you went home?"
"I did. I mean, I was, but I came back here."
"So you took a bus home and then another one to come here? Why didn't you just come home with me when I left?"
I couldn't seem to answer that question. Instead, I simply informed him that we were alone.
"Oh…then…go ahead," was his response. I leaned in to kiss him but then stopped before our lips touched. "Goddammit Marth. Don't you know what I'm doing? Or at least WHY I'm doing this?"
"Why don't you tell me? I want to hear you say it."
Shocked, I quickly blinked my eyes and turned my head away as I sucked my teeth. So he DID know…That fucking troll. "Marth. I like you. A lot." There was that smile of his again.
"Took you long enough~" he said in a stupidly upbeat tone. "I tried to get you alone so many times."
"Then why didn't YOU ever say anything?"
Marth shrugged as he took hold of my hands. "'Cause…you kissed me first. I wanted to hear YOU say it."
I smiled and repeated, "Marth. I like you," making him chuckle.
"I like you too."
"Now that that's cleared up…Can I kiss you again?"
END.
