The next day 'Dec 00
My memory of last night was a bit blurry in the mists of being clouded with the thoughts of him. I sipped my coffee, indulging in the scene before me. The sun has just risen, creating a lavender hue amongst the sky. The birds were chirping, and it couldn't have been a better way to start a day.
The warm fabric around me, compliments of Tristan, smelled of cologne and cigarettes. His scent. I brushed off some lint on my left sleeve, liking the feel of leather against my skin.
Walking onto the balcony just in time for a snowflake to land on my nose. It trickled down slowly, a snowflake after another. Stiffing my hands into his jacket pocket, I noticed a card, pulling it out slowly, my breath hitched in curiosity.
It was a simple card with a silver border. His handwriting sprawled out carelessly, it read; Before I met you, I never had a clue about what I was missing, Then I found the truth in the way you're kissing me. Signed, love, Tristan. My heart skipped a beat, and I felt like I could cry. Whoever this was addressed to was a lucky woman. For all I knew, he was probably waiting for her when I came.
I scanned my finger tips over it, reading it again, wanting the words to be forever stitched in my mind. Reminding myself momentarily, those beautiful words were not meant for me. Against my better judgment I decided to keep it, the sentimental side getting the best of me. I gingerly placed his jacket in the closet, closing the door behind me.
He haunted me the rest of the day, his sapphire eyes replayed in my mind, the thought of which would I ever see those eyes again.
Mid July 01
Pacing back in forth in the room was a bit tiring.
"Tristan...i cant do it...its so weird."
"Ror, you have to, for us." His fingers trailed against my jawline, to my hair, to the back of my neck. Crushing my lips against his, I couldn't help but wonder being close to someone else, Josh Adams to be specific. Now turned off at the imagine in my mind, the kiss came to a stop, and I resumed pacing back and forth.
"Its just so.....weird!"
"Really? Because I have missed the first 47 times you have said it." He said with a roll of his eyes, amusement evident in his voice.
"Just think of the reward after, Ror, we could be together without being afraid of my father, we could cruise along the 101 in the California sun, and stay up really late. We could buy a house in LA, raise lots of kids then we'd both join a gang, Just as long as we are together." He ended up singing. I clapped and he bowed, thank you's lost in the laughter.
I ended up on his bed, listening to his heartbeat while he held me in his arms.

"Before I met you
I never had a clue about
What I was missing.
Then I found the truth in the way you're kissing me."--- Its the first verse of the song "The Eight Day" By The June spirit. You'd be seeing more of this song throughout the story.
"we could cruise along the 101 in the California sun, and stay up really late" - "1*15*96" The Ataris
"We could buy a house in LA, raise lots of kids then we'd both join a gang, Just as long as we are together"- "I wont spend another night alone" The Ataris.
Edit: Thanx for telling me about the error(s)...i corrected it and I hope you all forgive me :) The reason I had said it was San Dimas because the last part... "-listening to his heartbeat while he held me in his arms" was from that line in San Dimas "And I listened to your heartbeat as I held you in my arms...once again please forgive me for such a mistake...i havent listened to them in a while... and as for the rest of this story it will be up soon!
I Hope you liked this chapter. Review!
