Trying to Move On
Chapter 8
It was late. The sunlight was fading away and the wind was starting to blow a little harder. You could even hear the voice of the wind, that voice that you can hear only when everyone is quiet, or far away. That voice that tells you that no matter what, everything is going to be okay...and you believe it, at least for a minute...
Lucas and Haley were still holding each other, trying to erase all their thoughts, trying to make everything go away...
"I think we should start walking, 'cause it's getting really late" Haley said, with sadness and oddly...calmness.
"You're right Hales, it's just that...I don't know if I'm ready to face the world yet" Lucas replied, a little scared of what Haley was going to say next. But still, he couldn't believe that she was so calm and so ready. Actually, he wasn't so surprised, 'cause Haley had always been the strong one. She had always supported and comforted him.
"Just remember that you are not alone in this, we're together" Haley stated.
"I know, but still..." Lucas started to say, but was interrupted by Haley putting her hands in both sides of his face and saying: "Lucas, you have to understand, I'm also scared to of going back to the world, facing everyone and accepting that my father's dead!...But we can get over all this...TOGETHER..." They stared at each other for a long time, both with intense gazes, filled up with understanding, comfort and most important...love.
Haley unconsciously licked her bottom lip, still focused on Lucas eyes, but starting to move her eyes towards his mouth. Lucas, without thinking, leaned in, and grazed her lips, caressing them cautiously, scared that she might pull away. Soon, after the first shock, she started kissing him back, but it was still very innocent. Moments later, Lucas tried to deepen the kiss, passing his tong through her bottom lip, asking for permission. Haley opened right away her mouth allowing him more access. After about ten minutes, they pulled away, both needing some air, but not wanting really to pull away.
After a few seconds..."What was that?" Lucas asked, really scared of what she might say.
"I don't know" Haley answered.
