"Rory! Please wait!" Tristan saw her sitting at the bus stop with her head in her hands. When she heard Tristan call her name, she looked up and he noticed her red eyes. She tried to wipe away her tears because she felt embarrassed enough already, but it was to no avail. Tristan noticed immediately. *Oh my god, I made her cry again.*
He slowly walked to her and sat next to her on the bench. He didn't know what to say, he didn't know how to start. There was so much he wanted to tell her. Her heartbreaking sob took him out of his reverie.
"Please Tristan, just forget it. Just go away." She cried, almost choking on her tears.
"I can't, Rory." He whispered.
"Why not? I'm already embarrassed enough, Tristan. Don't go making it even worse now."
"I can't leave Rory. I can't forget what happened. I can't let you sit her,
feeling embarrassed when there's nothing for you to be embarrassed about." Tristan answered, while getting up. He stood in front of her and softly forced her to look up at him.
She did and he took in her heartbroken appearance. He had done it again; he had once again hurt her. Her beautiful eyes were brimming with tears and her soft cheeks were wet from the countless tears that had already fallen. "What do you mean? I thought you were in love with me, and you obviously aren't. I kissed you, and you didn't kiss me back. There is a whole lot for me to be embarrassed about."
"No there is not. Not when you were right. You were right about everything. I just got scared, Rory. You finally saw through me, and it scared me. And when you kissed me, I just froze. Never in my life had I expected you to do that. In my dreams yes, countless times even. But I....I just couldn't believe it was real. I'm sorry, Rory. I never meant to hurt you, and I never meant to make you feel embarrassed."
He let out a deep sigh, and looked her straight in the eye. "And I promised myself that I would never make you cry again, I'm so terribly sorry, baby."
Tristan looked at the ground, patiently waiting for her reaction. After a while he felt her small hands search his larger ones and felt her slim fingers wrap around his. He looked up and saw her softly smiling at him.
She slowly got up from the bench and went to stand close to before him. Tristan could do nothing but stand there and watch her every move. Slowly she wrapped her arms around him and held him tight. Tristan wrapped his strong arms around her waist and let out a deep sigh. This felt so good. Just holding her, hugging her, it was amazing. Rory's head was buried n the crook of his neck and he felt her smile against his skin. Tristan thought he was dreaming.
Then she looked up at him, now with a mischievous smile on her face. Her hands grasped the back of his neck softly and she brought her head close to his. Never in his life had Tristan felt as vulnerable and nervous as at this moment. The girl of his dreams standing in front of him, holding him and looking at him with a slight smile, torturing him.
He trembled, she noticed and her eyes softened.
And just before she kissed him for the second time that day, she whispered against his lips:
"You called me baby again..."
***************************************************************************
So there it is. I hope you like it.... It's not over yet, though. I mean, they're kissing at the moment, so I can make a whole chapter about that ( You want me to do that? Just let me know. But then you do have to review....hint...hint... Anyways, next week I won't be updating because tomorrow I'm leaving for Italy!!!!!!! Yeah baby! So when I see some hot Italian guys, maybe I'll get some inspiration for the next chapter! Who knows... ( I'll think of you all, when I'm sunbathing by the pool in Toscane....gna...gna...gna.... But I'll be back! And I hope to find a lot of reviews when I get back..... thanks!
