If you all haven't noticed yet, I am HORRIBLE at updating. But again thank you to all who have commented, you mean the world to me
I was laying next to him in the tray of his truck, I had my head resting on his shoulder as we laid in silence looking up at the stars. I sniffed in the sweet smell that I knew to be his, I was wrapped in his arms, feeling safer then I ever have in my life. We had been laying here for what seemed like forever, I wouldn't have it any other way. I could feel him getting restless, I sat up allowing him to also sit up facing me. He then reached into the window of his car and pulled out a small white box with a lace bow tied around it. Once he sat back down, he took in a deep breath giving me that same dopey smile he always has.
"My mom said that when my dad was around, he gave her this necklace to kinda show everyone that no matter what happened they'd always be together. But that didn't turn out so great seeing as he left" He chuckled bitterly before looking back at me with those hazel brown eyes interlocking with my bright green eyes. "I'm not like that. My mom raised me, not him. I'll never leave you as long as I am breathing. As much as I hate sounding like a pussy, that's how I feel. And being with you makes me want to me different, a better person. Because a know your to good for me, and I know that its pure luck for someone like me, to get someone as perfect, beautiful and amazing as you. So I just wanted to let everyone know, that you're mine." He looked down and opened the lid of the white box, he then looked back at me "If you'll let me."
I couldn't say anything, Paul was never one for words. He normally kept his emotions to himself, so for him to open up to me like that. It was big, I could feel hot liquid foaming in my eyes as I looked brightly at him with a smile. I nodded, trying to keep the tears of happiness within my eyes.
He breathed out before moving so I was sitting in front of him. He took my hair pushing it to the side, I looked down to see a shiny, silver heart resting on my chest. I turned around and smiled at him with tears still in my eyes. He touched my cheek wiping away a tear while he was at it, then then turned the heart around for me to read
"Forever and Always" I gently glided my thumb over the words written on my silver heart. He pulled me closer to him as he gave me a gentle, loving kiss. I pulled away kissing him on the forehead a I slowly laid in the middle of his legs, resting my head on his chest. He reached down and intertwined our fingers together. I could feel his heart beating in sync with mine, I smiled as he kissed me on the top of the head before asking,
"No matter what happens you'll still love me right?" I turned around so I was straddling his waist, I gave him a passionate kiss before saying "I'll love you until I die"
"Savannah, honey what's up with you lately? You've been acted very strange, is everything okay?" My mom snapped me out of my thoughts.
"Sorry, I was thinking about cheer practise this afternoon" I said with a smile as I took a bite out of my eggs.
Truth be told, cheer leading is all I have left. I'm not very smart, I'm just passing all my subjects. I've given up on boys, I thought about going dyke, but then I decided not too, seeing as its a small town and I'm pretty sure the only dyke is that old lady a few doors down from us who always has her 3 cats in her bag. I'm dreading leaving high school, I'm good at high school. I know everything there is to know about high school, its easy for me. But once everyone leaves, I have to be by myself, I don't do by myself.
Okay so that thing before about given up on boys is a lie, I've given up on relationships. Its no use, you're only going to get your heart broken so why bother right? Hooking up with boys is so much easier, you don't get your heart stomped on because you don't give them your heart. Its simple maths really, see if boys were a subject. I'd be getting straight A's.
"Oh Sam is sending one of the boys to come around and check your car out this afternoon. Do you think you'll be home before 4:30?" My dad asked removing his focus from the paper
"Sure." I said with a smile while taking my plate and putting in the sink. I kissed my father goodbye as he walked out of the kitchen, and out the door. I pored my self a glass of water as I watched my mom clean up after the breakfast she had made. I could tell she had something to talk to me about, because every time I would look at her, she'd be looking at me with worried eyes.
"Emily called yesterday" She spoke with her back towards me cleaning the frying pan. "She told me about Paul."
I died a little inside, why couldn't Emily just keep her giant mouth shut? No one asked for her help, or her advice. But no, she had to stick her business where it wasn't wanted. I sat down at the breakfast bench and played with my hands, I heard the water turn off. I looked up and saw my mom facing me with that same worried look on her face. "How are you feeling about it?" she asked
"Nothing really, it's not like I'm going to go date him again." I said shrugging
"Honey, this is a message from above, you don't imprint on someone just for the sake of it. It's meant to be." My mom explained, I didn't want to here any of it.
"I gotta go to school." I mumbled grabbing my bag and heading towards the door. I stopped half way through the doorway when I saw a big white box sitting on the front porch. I closed the door behind me and bent down to see the box was addressed to me. I picked up the box and carried it to my car, once sitting in the drivers seat I started the drive to school with the white box sitting on the passengers seat. I couldn't keep my eyes on the road, I kept looking back at the box wondering what was in it. Quickly I reached the school parking area and found a car park. I pulled the box onto my lap as I slowly opened the lid, I gasped loudly at what was inside...
