Chapter 24
There are moments in life you'd wish to forget while others, you want them to stay in mind and to never vanish. That's what last night is to me, a night that has me wondering about the state of mine and Connor's relationship.
What happens now?
I can't lie and say that I'm not afraid of what had happened, it having a negativity to what I've grown accustomed to, our real friendship. I mean last night I experienced my first ever real kiss, a kiss that made me feel butterflies swooning in my belly and still are.
I might be scared but I can't hide the fact that every time I think about him, and of course the kiss, I still feel tingles on my lips, proving the lasting effects that something honest and true can do to someone. I haven't seen him and the more I don't, the more doubt and regret weighs on me, since I don't really know how he's feeling today. Last night was all about the moment and now that it is over, and today is a new day, I don't know if - .

Turning a blind eye on what's in front of me has me at loggerheads with both denial and the truth. Denial, because for the past two days all I've been doing is acting like Connor and I didn't kiss, or that just him being close makes my heart to beat fast and breath to come out short.Oh I can't forget the butterflies in my belly.The truth is, whether I'd like to admit it or not, I want him to kiss me again and for me to go back to the feeling of being wrapped up in a bubble, with just the two of us.Vicky is right to tell me to not rush into things because I don't want to, I don't want to rush on a train that I can only get so far on, before I lose control of the ride.I will not lie and say I know all about the matters of the heart because I'm as clueless as a baby, I've never done anything, except Saturday night when Connor became my first ever kiss.I know many may be wondering a

Eyes are on me, I can feel them, making me to wake up. As I thought, right next to me, Connor is straight up staring at me with a small smile on his face." Morning." I say, sitting up." Morning, sleep well?" He asks." Yes thank you." Looking at him, I see that his smile is an easy and content one, making me curious of his sudden mood." Mind telling me what that smile is for?"" Oh can't anyone smile in this fine morning." He almost sing songs, making me want to laugh at him." O -kay, well I should be getting going." I start moving but don't get far when he pulls me back in place ."Stay, at least for another 5 minutes.""Oh miss me already?" I tease with my brow quirked up.Being so fascinated with his hair ,I reach out my hand and start running my fingers through his hair, which is so soft by the way and I love

Hands intertwined, stolen glances , secret kisses and nightly chats, that's been us in these few days passed. I can't describe how I feel, my heart feels lighter and I find myself automatically smiling for no reason when I see him, it's almost like we have known each other for such a long time but are still able to learn something new from each other, each day that passes.Vicky hasn't said much concerning the two of us, but she gives off hints of where she might be at, with me catching her glancing our way and giving off a smile, making me a bit at ease with she being happy for me.The thing with knowing her so much, I've learnt to see beyond that smile of hers, that's why I didn't miss the concern in her eyes, the same concern that I sometimes have and not only about Connor but my mom.The same mother who had visited me a few times but even then, I never told her about Connor, I don't know. For some reason I feel l

A good morning, that's what it should be and it is, with the sun getting its heat on so early in the morning and of course the fresh air from the window, except for me feeling regret about last night's argument.Gazing out the window and just getting lost in thought about nothing, a sigh escapes me at the realization that maybe I should just make the first move and go and apologize, because truthfully I miss him already.There's a knock on the door, surely interrupting my thoughts. " Come in." I say without looking behind me.Must be Vicky with my gummie bears or one of the guardians.Thoughts of who's here go out the window when I feel arms wrap around my waist slowly. My body tenses up for a moment, and that's when he almost moves back and lets go of me, but I pull his arms back around me and lean back against his chest."Baby girl I'm sorry." He says close to my ear, show

Rocking back and forth in the dark and trying to mental talk myself to calm down, seems to only make matters worse. Tears have already made themselves known, panic threatens to surface because of the memories that are flooding back and I can feel myself being drawn back to that dark time.Suddenly a knock sounds and I flinch a bit before taking a breath." Bailey, please open up."Oh Lord Connor....." Please go away." I whisper out, though I know he can't hear me, I say the words anyway." Baby girl I'm not leaving from here until I know you're okay!" He lightly demands and if I wasn't feeling this way, I would have laughed.I don't say anything." Bea, please - please let me in!" He says in defeat, causing my heart to beat twice as hard.Swallowing hard, I stand up and head over to the door.Opening it slowly, I ma

Like I've said before that moments come and moments go, moments that would have all been forgotten in the next couple of days or moments, one never dares to forget. Right now I'm in that place where all I can do is smile as my moments are feeling after, the night I let Connor in.Lighter, that's how I feel.A long way I have come and a long way I still have to go, but right now I'm still surviving, wait no, starting to live again.A couple of days have passed and now I'm into the new week, nothing has come forth about whether I'm leaving this place or not and now, I'm perfectly certain that I can't leave.I can't leave now when things seem to fall into place and I'm enjoying my time with Connor, even though we may be in here and it's not on the outside, at least I get to spend most of my everyday with him.Running through the halls, I rush over to Doctor Anthons office, hoping I don'

5 minutes, that's how long the silence has been for between us. Both Connor and I are seated on the floor in my room, with our backs leaned against the wall, both in thought of our current situation in which neither one of us knows how to approach." So...." I start to say." So....." Seems like he can't find the right words too."This it, then?" He looks at me in question." What?"Avoiding his eyes and staring ahead, I respond. " It's over..." I trail off.He shakes his head. " No it's not, I'm not leaving."" No you are. You will go out there and enjoy the rest of your Summer."" You can't tell me what to do, and besides, I've already made up my mind."" Well I can. As a person who cares about you, I have the right to kick you out of here and make sure that you don't ever come back here again, only for visits of course."He doesn't say anything and I crawl to kneel in front o

Today is the day, it's time to say goodbye.I don't think I can, but I know I'll have to. It's hard enough accepting that he's leaving, but to actually watch him do it, is another story. That's why we are both in my room, sitting cross legged and playing with each others hands." I think I'll buy myself a dictionary," he says." Thought dictionaries were too nerdy for you."" Well yeah but at least it'll remind me of you."" You make it sound like I'm already gone." I say.He chuckles. " Way to ruin the moment." He jokes and I offer a small smile with a shrug." You know this isn't goodbye right?" He mentions.I tilt my head to the side, avoiding his eyes. When I look at him again, I see a frown form on his forehead but before I can say anything, my eyes catch Vicky standing at the doorway.Our eyes connect and she n
