He left his signature on her lips. [[short story]]

The best feelings are the kind where you donâ??t have any words to describe them. They are only actions that spread across your face like the water on a sandy shore after the tide has washed upon it. It cannot be stopped, cannot be calmed. Once released, thereâ??s no going back.
I stared at his perfect eyes that looked upon me from behind the thin lines of wispy hair that spread in front of his face. My heart jumped a beat and I had to catch my breath when I saw that he was slowly inching towards me. I tried to think of the reasons this was happening, relishing at the thought that he might be everything I have ever wanted and came up with nothing. Is this a dream? I kept asking over and over in my mind expecting some sort of answer to pop out, but nothing ever did. I could feel my heart shaking inside my rib cage and I tried to calm it while wondering what his first move would be, then everything stopped.
I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock screaming, â??wake up,â?? in my ear. I let out a silent moan as I slowly rose out of bed to face the day that could destroy me in the process. I slipped on my shoes and pulled up my hair as I ran downstairs to be greeted by a lovely breakfast with a note laid beside the plate.
â??Kate, Iâ??ll be home late. My boss needs to go over some constructions I need to think about working on later this week. Love you-Dad.â??
This wasnâ??t the first time he had done this; I was used to not seeing him a lot but for the moment that was okay. Between getting ready for school and thinking about that dream I had, there was no room for conversation. It felt so weird as if the dream actually meant something, but it was just a dream. Despite it being in my imagination, it was hard. When youâ??ve been numb for so long, it hurts when it starts to wear off. I took one last bite of my pop-tart and ran out the door to catch my ride to school.
My cousin could tell I was tense by the stressed look I had across my face.
â??Whatâ??s the matter with you?â?? She looked at me with wild eyes worrying over something she knew nothing about.
â??Oh, Iâ??m fine. Weird dream is all.â?? I replied back with a shaky voice.
â??Whatever you say.â??
We pulled up to the school and slowly I got out of the tiny, red car and walked inside the place of life and torture. School. The first person I looked for was the one that had invaded my dreams the last couple of nights, Tyler. At the same time I was terrified to face him though I donâ??t know why. He didnâ??t know what I had dreamt or the fact that it was about him.
As I rounded the corner to prepare for my first period, Honors U.S. History class, the unthinkable happened. My bag sprawled out on the floor as I bounced back landing on my butt with a hard thud. My heart shuttered when I realized it was him that I had bumped into. I looked up at him and slowly a small smile spread on my face as the only sound released from my mouth was a tiny whimper. He leaned down as I fumbled to pick up my books.
â??Sorry, didnâ??t mean to run into you,â?? that was the only response that popped into my bedraggled head. Thoughts of my dream from the previous night floated around in my mind and I blushed.
â??Thatâ??s fine. You didnâ??t mean to. Besides, you wanted to run into me,â?? a smile formed on his face as I let out a small giggle.
â??Yes, that sexy body attracted me so much that I turned the corner right when you were coming around it.â?? My cheeks felt red hot as that last word escaped from my lips. I smiled once more as I stood up.
â??I figured as much. Iâ??ll see you at the bus.â?? With that, he looked at me one more time smiling, and walked swiftly away.
I let out a heave of air as I continued to walk to my locker with a smile across my face that was rare in itself. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Beth walk up to me with a smirk across her face.
â??I saw you talking to your lover boy.â??
â??Heâ??s not my lover boy. Thatâ??s just wishful thinking. Besides, I made an idiot of myself because I ran straight into him. My cheeks were on fire. I had the dream again last night.â?? I let my head dip low.
â??Well maybe that was the release you needed. Itâ??s obvious you like him.â??
â??Yeah, but I donâ??t want it to be obvious to him.â??
â??Whatever you say. So what did you two say when you bumped into each other?â?? Beth looked at me questionably.
â??Correction. I ran into him. I said I was sorry then he told me I wanted to bump into him. I told him that it was his sexiness pulling me to round the corner directly when he did. He laughed and said that he would see me at the bus.â??
â??Aww, he flirted Caitlyn. Thatâ??s a sign that he likes you.â??
â??Yeah, I wish.â??
Just then the bell rang.
â??Iâ??ll see you in a bit. Later Beth.â??
â??Bye.â??
My first period lasted the same as always. Boring history lessons about the Spanish-American War today. Yay! How can I learn about a war when there was a battle going on between my head and heart right now? I began to daydream wondering why I kept having that dream about him. But I guess it didnâ??t really matter how I had the dream or even why, what matters was I did. Apparently I daydreamed for about an hour and a half unknowingly because before I knew it, there was a loud ringing in my ear telling me that it was time for second period Life Skills. Wahoo! That was a class that I had Beth in, so more than likely I will hear her talking more about my so called lover boy. Oh I wish.
I sat my books down on my desk and laid my head down releasing the breath through my tiny lips. I closed my eyes slowly.
â??You know holding your breath in the hall expecting to see him every time isnâ??t going to help you. Itâ??s just going to turn your cheeks red and make you look like a blowfish.â??
I looked up at Beth and slowly laid my head back down. â??It wouldnâ??t be like that if I would stop being such a pussy and talk to him about it. I mean how hard could it be. I talk to him just fine after school waiting for the bus. But I canâ??t do that during school for some reason. I always feel like Iâ??m going to tell him the dream I keep having.â??
â??Speaking of the dreamâ?¦how far did it get last night?â??
My head rose up and I looked at her closely. â??Well, he started inching towards me. The same black wispy hairs covering those beautiful blue eyes. Those mysterious eyes,â?? I let out a breath, â??what do you think it means Beth?â??
She thought for a second and for a slight moment she said nothing but then looked at me square in the eye.
â??For someone as smart as you, you would figure that you would get it by now.â??
â??What?â??
â??Youâ??re in love with him. Or at least youâ??re falling in love with him.â??
â??How could I? I mean Iâ??ve only known him for a short time.â??
â??Look at the facts. You dream about being with him, you get nervous when you talk to him; you hold your breath when you walk down the hall scared that you might say something stupid. You blush every time his name is mentioned and you smile every time he is around. I bet you a million to one that your heart feels like it skips a beat every time you think about him and I bet anything that you get sweaty when wondering what he is thinking or if he is thinking about you. Youâ??re right. You have only known him for a short time but like the quote says: Love gives you no hint as to when it will happen.â??
I looked at her and for the first time I considered the possibility that I might be falling for him and if I was then the dream I would have tonight would decide that. I rushed through the rest of my classes anxious for the day to end. I kept thinking to myself that all I ever wanted was to be his friend, his best friend. But all I ever dreamed about was being his only one. I figured that tonight, if my dream would go any farther than what it had been, that is when I would tell him. That was when I would tell him I was falling for him. Or that I had fallen for him.
Third and fourth period went by quick, not much to look forward to in those classes anyways. I sat anxiously staring at the clock in last period, watching the minute hand move closer and closer to the nine. Come on. Finally for what seemed like a lifetime, it rang and I ran out the door eagerly wanting to get out to the bus before he did. That was our thing. I was always the first one to the bus and he never understood why. It was only because I wanted to see him sooner. I sat outside by the large pillar at the corner of the bus lane waiting for the school door to open for me to see that beautiful boy. That long dark hair that swept in front of those blue eyes and that rare smile that I had only seen a few times. I wanted to see it now. I wanted to see him slowly walk toward me with that little walk of his. The one that looked like he was so ashamed of but in reality I had fallen in love with.
The door slowly creaked and a blast of cold air swept around him, twirling his hair around his face and eyes. I smiled quickly but swiftly let it fall in fear that he might catch me staring at him with intense eyes. He walked towards me with no expression on his face, no emotion at all it seemed. And the sudden thought again crept into my mind on what he was thinking. Beth was right, I was wondering if he was thinking about me. I doubt that he was but it was fun to think about.
â??So I see you finally decided to join me on this cold winter afternoon.â?? I looked at him and smiled hoping that he would smile too. He did.
â??How do you get out here so fast?â??
â??I have my specific reasons to rush, but donâ??t trouble yourself with trying to find them out.â??
â??And what reasons would that be?â??
He was trying to get me to tell him but I could never let him know how I felt. Especially before the dream that I would hopefully be having tonight.
â??See, I would have to kill you if I told you.â??
A smile spread across his face and my heart leapt for joy. â??Hm, well I guess thatâ??s a chance I am willing to take. Tell me.â??
I cocked my head to the side and looked at him wildly. â??Sorry, I donâ??t give in that easy.â?? Hopefully he hadnâ??t noticed my not to subtle flirting technique.
â??Well, is that how itâ??s going to be?â??
At that moment, Stormy walked up nonchalantly, she knew she had just interrupted something that was about to get good.
â??What are you guys talking about?â?? She looked at me and smiled.
Stormy was the only other person that knew at least slightly how much I liked Tyler. That fact I wouldnâ??t hide. I did like him with high passion. She didnâ??t know about the dreams though. If she did then she would torture me that much more and that was not something I wanted to go through, especially with Tyler standing not even three feet in front of me.
â??Well nothing now.â?? Tyler looked at her glaringly then turned to me, â??Weâ??ll talk about it on the bus.â??
I smiled at the thought that it was that important for him to know. The bus rode up at that time and we ran up to get our first pick on the seats.
â??Now where were we?â?? Tyler looked at me with a smile on his face and I couldnâ??t help but let a small grin come on mine. He settled himself down in the seat behind me and perched his chin on my seat staring the whole time like he was studying me.
â??Well, we were talking and I was telling you that I would have to kill you if I told you why I got out there so early. Then you said you were willing to take that chance.â??
He laughed. â??Yeah, so why donâ??t you make this easy and tell me why you do it? Itâ??s not like itâ??s anything bad. Are you too ashamed to tell me?â??
I looked at him and knew what he was doing. Reverse psychology. â??Well, if I tell you then you canâ??t smirk about it.â??
â??Fine, I wonâ??t.â??
â??I get out here earlier than you because I like to beat you to the starting line for the bus.â??
Not to mention the fact that I love to see you walk out with that mysterious expression on your face. Of course, I didnâ??t tell him that though. That would be too embarrassing.
â??Oh really. I think there is more to it than that, you know.â??
â??Maybe. Maybe not. That is for me to know and you not to find out.â??
â??I can get anything out of you that I want. Starting with this information. Stormy will tell me.â??
â??Stormy doesnâ??t even know.â??
â??Well, I will figure it out nonetheless.â??
We spent the rest of the bus ride arguing and him using a considerable amount of effort to get me to spill the real truth as to why I have to beat him every single day. I didnâ??t break.
I got home and immediately got on the computer to check my messenger. His name was, as always, signed on so I clicked on it.
Me: You know itâ??s not nice to harass people on public transportation.
Tyler: Youâ??re not people.
Me: Then what am I?
Tyler: I havenâ??t figured that out yet.
Me: Is it something good?
Tyler: Why should I tell you? You wonâ??t tell me what I want to know.
Me: If I do. Will you tell me?
Tyler: As long as you promise not to back out.
Me: I promise.
Tyler: Itâ??s not something good.
Me: Oh.
Tyler: Donâ??t back out. You already promised. Why do you get out there so early before me?
Me: I like to see you come through the doors. It brings a smile to my face. I have to go. Talk to you later Tyler.
Tyler: Wait.
Me: What?
Tyler: The reason why itâ??s not something good is because it is something amazing.
With that he signed off instantly leaving me there with a big smile on my face. Thatâ??s how I knew I would definitely have the dream tonight. This time it would finish completely and for once I would muster up the courage to make things the way I want them to be. Or at least try to make them the way I want them to be.
The day had come and the day had gone and I survived people who think they are better, crushes that drive me crazy, and the best friend who is trying to play Dr. Love.
I slowly laid down in my comfy bed and put my hands behind my head sighing to myself. Wondering if Tyler was doing the exact same thing, hoping he was feeling the same way I was. I quickly snapped out of it when I realized that a guy like him could never want a girl like me in the first place. I began to drift and silently I fell into a dream.
His eyes stared at me with the same intensity as the night before. I stared back with the same flash of eagerness. He took one step as he reached over to slightly touch my arm with the tip of his fingers. I shook with fright. I kept my eyes glued on him as he led me over to the bed and sat me down. I looked up at him as he came closer, using the soft touch of his hands to seduce me. I smiled a tiny smile as he shifted his palm to touch my cheek as light as he could without scaring me too much. He was being gentle. He leaned down, his face right in front of me. He must have felt me shaking with overwhelming joy and my heart shuddered.
â??Shh, it's okay.â??
The other palm slightly touched my shoulder as he leaned me back to where my back was against the bed. He stood over me with knowing eyes as he pulled his shirt off. There I could see the strong muscles that took up the majority of his body and I smiled. He was within two inches of my face so much as to where I could feel his breath against my chin. I could feel his hands move along my side, his skin like velvet as it lay across my waist. Slowly my shirt was slid off me and tossed to the floor. I didn't care. I was getting comfortable now. He lay on top of me as I traced the muscles and bones that lined his back.
â??Are you still scared?â??
â??No.â?? I responded positively as his hand reached the top of my neck and I swallowed hard. His soft lips touched and a million sensations shot across my body at once. My heart sped up as he looked me in the eyes once more. The chemistry crossing the little space between us was jolting our bodies. He softly kissed my lips as I still felt his hands move up and down my spine. I tingled.
My legs wrapped around him pulling him down further on me so much to where I could feel his heartbeat safely across my chest. I knew mine was beating hard enough to pop out. Hopefully he could feel it too.
My pants tugged at the bottom of my feet as I felt his legs pulling them along my leg. His went off almost straight after only leaving two small pieces of cloth between us both. I cringed scared of what he might think of my body but went on with it anyway. He kissed me again more roughly on the lips and I forced my lips right back at him. I could feel his smile as it got better. I could feel him rub against me almost as if he was trying to make this a contest. I would soon win. :).
I forced myself back on him with my legs wrapped tight around his waist and we rolled across the bed to where I was on top of him this time. I stopped suddenly to look him in the eyes and I could see now that it was more than just lust. It was love.
I forced my lips down on his and he laughed. He could feel the small smile spread across my face as well. His hands slid down the middle of my back until he reached the top part of my bra as he quickly snapped it off. It slung through the air as I continued to kiss those perfect lips. We started laughing together ferociously as I bit the top part of his lip so much as to where blood came. He smiled from it and through me back on my back only to reach around and bit the side of my neck. I moaned not in pain but in pleasure when I felt a thick stream of blood side from the side of my neck down across my shoulders and then I laughed. This was getting more and more playful. I reached my arm around his neck to pull his hair down to hear him moan in pleasure as well. Things started getting rougher as I took my nails and etched them down his back, he arched swiftly feeling the sting of the now released blood.
Just then I could feel the acute pain in my lower region as I saw that we had finally really begun. I let out a small whimper and then I looked at him and smiled. He smiled back with a smirk that made him realized that I enjoyed the pain very much. Now it was about who could inflict more pain on each other. I would say thus far both were doing a pretty good job.
I slammed him down once more with me still positioned right on top of him and he could feel himself going farther inside and I could tell that he liked it. He placed his hands on the side of my hips and pressed harder as his feet pushed on the bottom part of the headboard. The pressure was beginning to build. His hands went to the side of the bed as he began to tug on the sheets and pillows that were now laying everywhere on the floor from the beginning struggle.
He reached back up grabbing my sides as he twisted and slammed me hard against the bed placing my legs above his shoulders. He pushed harder and I could feel him going further and further inside of me and still I wanted more. The world was spinning around me as I felt his smile spread. The perspiration began to gather on both of our bodies and still we weren't done. I felt his fingers move down my snow white legs to reach the side of my hips. He pulled me further to him, skin touching skin which fueled him more. I let out a small moan and his name left my lips with a large impact. Tyler. I pulled my head up out of the bed and kissed him hard on the lips pulling him down further on top of me. It was my turn again and I was well fueled for it.
I slammed him even harder than he slammed me on the bed and dug my nails deep within his back so he could feel the stinging pain. I pushed myself further on top of him and he arched his head back in astonishment feeling the results. His hips jerked up as he let a small moan and dropped back down with me on top of him.
Breathing hard, I lay beside him underneath the sheets and smiled. I turned to look at him, his face full of perspiration and bewilderment. His eyes staring intensely back at me. I could see a smile form in the corner of his mouth as it quickly spread across his face. I laid my head against his chest as I felt the slow steady heartbeat of the man that I was falling in love with. He took my fingers and intertwined them with his as if to say he was doing the same thing.
â??I can hear your heartbeat.â?? I smiled bigger while looking up at him from the top of my eyes.
â??Good. Because itâ??s all yours.â?? My heart leapt for joy as we stared deeply into each otherâ??s eyes as we both lay mixed up with the blanket that covered our bodies.
â??Now you have to do one more thing.â??
I looked up at him intently, â??and whatâ??s that?â??
â??Wake Up.â??
A puzzled look spread across my face as he repeated it several times when I finally woke up to the sound of my alarm clock screaming in my ears again. My eyes opened and the brightness filled the room. I rose up as I began to prepare for the day at school, the day that I would spill my heart out in hopes that it wonâ??t be broken in two. I walked down the stairs again; my hair down in my face with my black chucks on and walked out the door.
I arrived at school, enthusiasm filling my heart. I smiled as I looked around to find the guy that I had fallen for.
â??You had the dream again didnâ??t you?â?? Beth looked at me with a smile on her face.
â??Yeah.â?? I replied back with an even bigger smile.
Apparently she could tell from the look on my face that today was going to be the day that I told him.
â??I just saw him go upstairs.â??
I took one last look at her with a smirk on my face as I began to run up the stairs with her tagging along swiftly behind me. I reached the top as I began jolting my head each and every way looking for that long hair when I finally saw him leaning against the wall in front of a set of gym doors. His eyes looked at me wildly asking what I was doing up here.
â??Hey Tyler. Can I talk to you?â?? My heart began to race as he swayed towards me, â??Iâ??ve got something to tell you.â??
He reached me with his best friend by his side.
â??What is it you want?â??
â??Well, this is kind of hard to tell you so I am going to do it as quick and painless as I possibly can. I was just kind of wondering how your day has been, if you think you are going to have a good one, I think Iâ??m falling in love with you, you look nice today. That kind of thing.â??
His eyes widened and a moment of silence that seemed like it lasted forever passed between us. It felt like eternity as my heartbeat slowly started to beat ferociously one more waiting for this response.
â??Okay then. I guess I pretty much just embarrassed the shit out of myself so Iâ??m going to go now before I cause anymore damage.â??
I turned to walk away as I felt his fingertips touch my arm and a flashback of my erotic dream popped into my head. My heart began to race faster.
â??Well what if I answered with my day has been alright, I think it will be fantastic from the looks of it, I think I have already fallen for you, and you look quite beautiful as always.â??
I tried to catch my breath as he threw these questions at me all at once. I turned to face him with a bewildered expression on my face wondering if I was dreaming at this moment as well.
â??I guess I would have to reply with a smile and a kiss.â??
He leaned towards me just like in my dream and again I could feel his breath against my chin. My lips started to quiver as I shook from the inside. Is this what it feels like to be in love because itâ??s amazing? I didnâ??t know if this was more a dream or a reality. I was hoping it was a mixture of both. My heart shuddered as his cool lips touched mine. My body shook with anticipation as he pressed harder for everyone to see. I could feel him smile so I smiled as well.
â??So if I ask you to be mineâ?¦is it safe to say that you would answer yes?â??
I kissed him again with the same smile still spread across my face.
â??Hm, well I think I would answer yes, I think you should ask just to be certain.â??
â??Will you be mine?â??
â??Yes.â??
He kissed me again and at that moment, I realized that when I first met him I never knew that I would be falling for him this hard or be falling for him period. But that is the beautiful thing about love. Accidents sometimes lead to the most amazing things.
