down to
earth
part #5
i ran all the way up to my room, and locked
the door. i jumped on my double bed, and started
crying. i grabbed the picture from sendoff, and looked at
it. it was me kissing his cheek. how am i gonna live
without him? my phone started ringing, and matt was calling
me. i got my voice strong for a second, and answered,
"hello?"
"heyy. " he said. his voice did make me want to
smile, but one more glance at the picture made me quiver.
"hey matt, sorry. its not the best time right
now. call you later?" i asked.
"oh its okay. you wanna talk about it?"
"no." i said, and i hung up. i stretched out
across my bed, and concentrated on the ceiling, trying hard to
hold in my tears. after immeasurable moment, my phone
started ringing. getting angry, i picked it up and looked
at it. it was chris.
"hey-yo." i said, in a weak voice.
"hey, you sound like you can't sleep." he said.
his room was at the same spot next door, so we knocked on the
wall and you could hear it.
"i can't." i said.
"can i help?"
"what are you gonna do?"
"just give me a sec." and he hung up. i heard
some banging on the boundary between our two 3rd floor
balconies. then i heard a soft thud, and my door
opened. i turned to face it, and he was standing there in
the soft glow of the moonlight. he smiled.
"hey" i said.
"hey." he whispered. he walked over and sat on
the edge of my bed. "you okay?"
"no." i said. i looked at my iHome and it was a
little after 3 in the morning.
"i thought so." he said, and frowned.
"listen mand, if there was anything i could do about this,
you know i would do it." he offered.
"i know, i know." i said, "i overreacted, i'm
sorry." he looked at me sorrowfully.
"but you are right about one thing." i said.
"what?" he asked.
"there is something between us." i said, sitting
up.
"i know." he looked down. "but you have
matt."
"matt's my boyfriend, you're my bestfriend. you're
much more important."
"then as your best friend, can i ask you something?" he
asked.
"anything." i vowed.
"kiss me?"
"chriss," i began. but he leaned closer, and i
closed the gap with a kiss. my stomach did a flip and a
half, and i had such butterflies. we pulled away, and i
said.
"as a friend, i'll always be there for you."
"whenever you need me. my door's always open
mand." he said.
"same here." i promised. and i hugged him goodbye
as he snuck out of the room.
