Understanding Irises
Embry's POV...
'And I'd give up forever to touch you Cause I know that you feel me somehow You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be And I don't want to go home right now'
I sat down on the rock near the cliff. I stared him. He was only one of two who I thought understood me. No one else seemed to understand. So no one else bothered with me anymore. f*g, s1ut, wh0ar, q33r... all names that have become my normal name to others who didn't understand.
"Jake." I whimpered.
I wanted to be near him. I didn't wanna leave him, and go back to my life, which is more like me own personal hell. He stared at me, with those warm brown eyes of his. I stared back, begging with my silver-blue eyes for him to understand. He was the one person, who I care most about what he thought of me.
'And all I can taste is this moment And all I can breathe is your life Cause sooner or later it's over I just don't want to miss you tonight.'
He kept his eyes on mine.
"They don't get it. They don't understand." I snorted. "Quil was like a brother. But then he drops me... just like that." I whispered, tears falling from eyes.
"My own mother... she thinks I'm wrong. Thinks its a phase, thinks this isn't how people are made." I let out a sob, thinking of the look my mother gave me when I came out.
"Please understand, that's just a part of me. It's not who I am. Please..." I begged. Silence.
'And I don't want the world to see me Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am.'
When I go home tonight, to my hell of a life, I needed to know that the person who matters most to me understood. To know who I really was, and just some ** that he would drop and forget. I hated feeling like this. Leah understood, only because she was Leah. Like a sister to me. But I needed Jake to know who I am.
"Jake..." I whimpered again.
I tried to fight my tears, I realized none came. I was tired of crying, all I felt was a painful numbness. I just wanted to hide. Be locked away. If Jake didn't understand, why in the world should I even stick around?
'And I don't want the world to see me Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am'
"Embry." He murmured and walked to me, sitting next to me on the rock.
He put his hand on mine. I haven't' had contact with people since I confessed, only with Leah. His skin was so warm... He wrapped his arm around me and I buried my face in his chest. Was he messing with me, or did he really get me?
'I don't want the world to see me Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am'
"I understood you from the moment I saw you when we were kids. The moment I looked into those silver-blue irises of yours. And I always will understand you. You don't have to go back. I got you." He whispered as he stroked my hair.
I nodded. He looked down at me with his warm, brown, understanding irises. The only person who I wanted to know who I was, understood. He leaned down, and pressed his soft lips to mine.
"I just want you to know who I am." I whispered, when he pulled away. He smiled softly.
"I know you. Better than you do. You have nothing to worry about." He said.
I closed my eyes and leaned into his embrace. His understanding irises, forever imprinted into my mind. He know who I was, even if he was the one of the only one's. I was okay with that. He understood.
'I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am...'
