Tears

I just sat there crying for what seemed like forever. I looked up and Damon was walking towards me. Shit! Shit! I grabbed my stuff and turned around so he couldn't see me.

" Hey, I saw you sitting by yourself and I thought maybe you could use some company."

I quickly wiped my tears away.

" That's nice of you but I` d like to be alone right now."

My voice broke twice.

" Are you crying?" He asked anxiously.

" No I ` m just getting a cold.. Yeah" My voice broke again.

" Look at me" He said.

" No, seriously I` m fine so you can just go now."

He put his hand on my shoulder.

"Jules, its ok if your crying."

And then I couldn't help it I broke into a sob. He stepped in front of me and hugged me, which made me cry even more. It must have been at least five minutes before I could control myself. I finally let go of him.

" Are you really ok Jules?"

I didn't answer right away because I wasn't sure.

" Yeah I` ll be alright." It was always better to lie.

" Look Im really sorry that you had to see this, and I would appreciate it if you didn't mention this to anyone"

" I would never tell anyone I promise."

I smiled. The bell rang and I was thankful.
