“As I patted the gauze onto the
open gash I saw shawns jaw clenching. “im almost
done” I said, I saw relief wash over him, as I wrapped
the wound up in a large band aid and some ace bandages and
threw out the garbage. “you really didn’t have to
do that” I sat back down and just looked around at the
dimly lighted shopping center around me. “yeah I
did” I looked down when I spoke. But as soon as I looked
up meeting shawns eyes. I noticed the ice cold blue eyes before
me seemed to have softened and warmed. I smiled and laughed a
little bit with a breath. “I have a question” he
sounded shaky when he spoke but he continued after I nodded.
“why were you starting to like cole? I mean I could tell
by the way you were looking at him. you’ve only really
been close with him for a few days and I jus-“ I cut him
off mid sentence by putting up my hand and closing my eyes
“no. oh god no. I really don’t think in the few
days ive basically known him we’ve had a real
conversation, well not like a deep one, and with out being able
to truly open up to someone I don’t think anything can
prosper from that.’’ We said in silence for a few
seconds, until I decided to finally break it. “we should
start walking back to the guys, they might get worried”
And with that I stood up. Shawn got up and caught to my steady
pace. “so since you got to ask me a question, I get to
ask you one” I was walking on the curb keeping my balance
like a pro while speaking. Shawn nodded and I went on
“was all of what cole said true?” “depends on
what your talking about” this time I inhaled a big breath
in before speaking and then it came out “well that you
hate everyone he talks to because of well, I guess trust
issues, that you haven’t even had time for a girlfriend?
Or one that actually cares?” as soon as I heard those
last few words pour out of my mouth I gasped and stopped in my
tracks and basically froze “i-im really s-sorry it u-uh
didn’t m-mean to come o-ut like that” shawn laughed
at my embarrassment making me breath for the first time in 20
seconds.” well ill admit that I don’t really
consider any of my old girlfriends a real relationship. Mostly
for the reason you said before, if you cant open up, whats the
point?” Shawn started walking again so I stepped off the
curb and followed a little bit behind him.
