pulling my stocking up cursing when I tare a rip in them, but they're my only pair so I keep them on, I step into a small skirt and a white cotton shirt, I wear my old Mary Janes and add a light makeup.
it's around 11, it stoped snowing New York is left with a light coat blanket of snow, it's quite beautiful outside, I check my phone seeing Timothèe wants to meet me at mine, which I was hesitant about, but eventually I just couldn't care too much.
i sit on my bed, quietly, thinking.
Was this a good idea? Typical of me to torture myself for years over this man then as soon as I get the chance to spend time with him I run to him.
that's love for you.
of course I don't love him anymore, I did but I could never let myself hurt like that.
i get up quickly, needing a distraction.
when I hear my buzzer go off.my heart speeds up and I doubt my entire plan. this was stupid you need to back out, just don't answer he'll go away.
the buzzer goes off again and I curse at myself.
Why did I do this?
Fuck it.i run awkwardly to the door, looking through the peep hole I see him standing by the door talking to himself although I can't hear his words.
He holds flowers in one hand, I smile to myself he looks just as nervous as I am.
I open the door abruptly and he stops his mumbling.
"may-"
He says quickly.i give a warm smile.
our eyes meet and I stand aimlessly at the door."Oh-I'm sorry, come in."
I say moving aside so he can walk in.
"Cold outside?"
I ask.
I turn around and see him standing quietly.
"oh, yeah it's a bit cold."
He says.he extends his hand giving me the flowers.
i walk towards him, taking them from him.
"Fuck-"
My finger starts bleeding when my finger swipes one of the nasty thorns on the roses.
"Oh-oh shit I'm so sorry-"
I look up meeting his distressed eyes, the pain is there but barely noticeable.i hold my finger tightly.
"You need a Band-Aid or something where do- shit I really didn't mean for this to happen-""it's okay it's a small cut I'll be fine."
I say confused why he's so upset.I walk over to my kitchen finding a Band-Aid easily.
"are you okay?"
i ask him.
"you're asking me if I'm okay?"
He asks.
"Yeah?"He smiles.
"What?"
I ask.
"I'm not really okay."
He said.my eyes relax.
"why?"
I ask.
"I don't know I've been okay my whole life, but ever since I saw you again, I haven't been okay."
He said.
