:who's
that girl
Where's
she from
No
she can't be the one:
I
sat in my trailer, shaking my knee up and down,
tapping
a pen against the edge of the table. I
glanced
at my phone on the table in front of me, then
up
at the clock. Nine o'clock. I reached for the
phone,
then
jumped
when there was a loud knock on my door.
"Yeah?" I yelled.
"Just
me," Krista called as she opened the door,
stepping
into my trailer. She looks as me, still
holding
my phone. "Oh good god. Just call her, will
you
please?"
"I
know," I lean back on the couch. "I just, god, she
makes
me so nervous."
"She
must be special," Krista smirks, sitting on the
spinning
desk chair. She twisted side to side on it,
smiling
at me. "I don't think I've ever seen you
nervous.
About anything. Ever."
"I've
never been nervous like this," I admit. "When I
touch
her, it's like touching electricity. I
litterally
get light headed, and it scares the fuck
out
of me."
"I
hate to tell you, but that's what love is. It's
scarey,
and dangerous, and should make you feel like
you
have no control over any of it."
"I hate not having control," I answer sighing.
"I
know," she stands, heading for the door. "Call
her,
you'll never forgive yourself if you let her get
away."
"Yeah,"
I answered as the door swung shut. I scrolled
through
the phone, clicking Buffy, and send. With a
deep
breath I put the phone to my ear.
"Hello," she answered after the first ring.
"Hey," I answer smiling. "So...ice cream?"
"You've
never been to Coldstone?" Buffy asked in
astonishment
as she dragged me forward like a little
kid.
"No,"
I shook my head as we entered the ice cream
store.
"But you've heard of it right?"
"Well yeah, but I just didn't feel it was important."
"Not important? How long have you lived here?"
"Um...five
years? Yeah five I guess, I mean I was
out
here to film a couple movies, but didn't actually
move
here till," I explained.
"Well
I grew up here till I was fifteen. I grew up on
Coldstone.
It is a necessity."
"What
can I get for you?" The bored teenage boy behind
the
counter asked.
"Vanilla,
two scoops" answered Buffy promptly, I
raised
an eyebrow looking at her. "What?" She asked.
"Vanilla?
All this talk of how special this place is,
and
you get vanilla? Don't they have some sort of
exotic
special flavors to try?"
"They
make vanilla special," she pouts for a second
before
grinning. I smile back at her.
"Make
that two, on cones," I tell the kid without
looking
away from her. She nods, agreeing with the
cones.
"Here
you go," we broke our staring to grab our cones.
"That's
gonna be seven twenty eight." All of a
sudden
the kids eyes light up. "Oh, shit, you're
her?"
"I'm who?" I ask, handing him a ten.
"Faith,
you're Faith! You are so hot," he grins and I
laugh.
"Thanks,"
I take the change, dropping it in his tip
jar.
"See ya." I follow Buffy outside, and we claim
a
table.
"You get that a lot huh?" She asked.
"Yeah,
but they are all always really sweet like
that."
"So,
um, not to pry, but what happened to your
girlfriend?"
"Yeah," I smiled. "Well we broke up."
"I
caught that, from the way you weren't running away
from
me." She answered.
"I
didn't mean to do that to you," I smiled. "Things
had
been iffy with us for a while, meeting you just
made
it harder to ignore that."
"I'm
sorry," she took a bite of her ice cream, looking
down
at it.
"Hey,"
I reached across the table, taking her hand.
"It's
not your fault. It was my decision, and it was
the
best decision I've made in a long time." She
smiles,
leaning across the table, I meet her halfway,
kissing
her slowly. Mmmm, the vanilla did taste
special.
"Um,
sorry to interupt what you're in the middle of,"
I
looked up to see the kid who served our ice cream
standing
by the table, my Maxim cover in hand. "Which
is
really hot by the way, you two kissing, but could
you
sign this?" He held out the magazine to me, hands
shaking
a little.
"Sure,"
I grabbed the magazine and the sharpie,
signing
it.
"Did you just buy that?" Buffy asked, looking amused.
"No,
I had it in my backpack," he grinned sheepishly
as
he took the magazine back. "Thanks so much."
"No problem, have a good night."
"You
too," he backed up and turned going quickly into
the
ice cream parlor, on the other side of the glass I
saw
the other three employees looking out at us.
"So,
where were we?" I ask, leaning back to her, she
grins
and leans forward, stopping just short of
kissing
me.
"You realize we have an audience right?" She asks.
"Does that bother you?" I ask.
"Nope, you're the celebrity."
"Kiss
me then," and she does. It's fantastic,
something
great about being with someone and not
having
to worry who might see. I am loosing myself in
the
kiss untill there is a sudden cold drop on my arm.
I
pull back a little.
"That's sticky."
"Not the response I was going for," she frowns.
"No,
my arm." I motion to it and she sees the ice
cream
on my arm, and notices her ice cream dripping.
"Oh!
I'm sorry," she grabs my arm, lifting it a little
and
bringing her mouth to my arm, gently sucking and
licking
up the drops from my arm.
"Oh,"
I bit my lip watching her, then I shut my eyes,
overcome
by the way her mouth fells on me. She pulls
away,
the warm spot on my arm quickly cooling in the
air.
I open my eyes to see her staring at me
intently.
"Faith?" She asks. "You okay?"
"Not
sure," I answer lowly. "Do you want to
go
somewhere?"
"Yeah,"
she nods. We stand in unison, both dropping
the
remainder of our ice creams in the trash.
I
took her hand, together we walked back through the
park
on our way to the only available parking space we
had
been able to find. I was surprised there were
actually
a bunch of other couples out and about.
I
just thought about us as a couple, fuck this girls
got
me twisted.
"What
are you thinking about?" Buffy asked, squeezing
my
hand and pulling me out of my thoughts.
"Actually
I was thinking about us being a couple. Is
that
weird?"
"Yes,
in a very fascinating and exciting way," she
stopped,
pulling me to a stop, and pulling me against
her.
"Kinda like you," she kissed me gently.
"Good answer," I smiled, pushing hair behind her ear.
"Glad
you liked it," she kissed me again, pulling back
quickly
and smiling at me.
"You drive me kinda crazy, you know?" I asked.
"I
get that a lot," she nods, then frowns looking over
my
shoulder. "I gotta go," she pulls away.
"What?" I frown confused. "I thought we were..."
"Yeah,
sorry, just someone, something came up, and I
gotta
go," she's backing away quickly, making me feel
like
a did something wrong. I step foreward grabbing
her
arm.
"Go where?" I ask.
"I'm
sorry," she kisses me quickly then takes off. I
consider
following her, but damn that girl is fast.
In
seconds she's dissapeared.
"Did
I just get Punk'd?" I ask the now empty walkway,
shaking
my head and continuing to the car. Not sure
how
she's getting home, but not really sure about
anything
about her actually.
