Chapter 14: What Are We?
"Hey," Seth smiled and wrapped me in a hug. He smelt like musk, the outdoor, and motor oil. His arms wrapped around me like a bear and his fingers clenched at my back.
"Are you okay?" I asked, whispering in his ear. He shook his head and hugged me tighter. I squeezed my arms tight and nestled closer.
"Do you want to go for a walk? Maybe go to the park?" I whispered. "Or we can go to my place. Klarion is out for the doing God knows what, so we can watch movies and... Stuff?" I wasn't really good at comforting.
"Please," He mumbled into my hair. I felt something press against my head. It was his tender lips. I slipped my fingers into his and gave his hand and nice squeeze.
When we pulled away I missed the warmth of his body and the smell of his shirt.
He passed me the spare helmet and I slid it over my hair and onto my head. I sat behind him and wrapped my arms around him, pulling his close.
The engine sputtered to life and settled into a purr. When we began to move I hugged Seth closer. Wind strung my hair like ribbon
The ride was short and fast. If that makes any sense? Meaning it was short in time and we went fast, sure, we'll go with that.
Seth and I sat under an old oak tree. I leaned against the trunk of the tree and Seth rested his head in my lap. His eyes were closed and he was so quiet I thought he fell asleep. I ran my fingers gingerly through his hair.
"Thank you," he finally said something. Maybe he would tell me what was bothering him.
"For?"
"Being you. Staying here with me and letting me lay on you." Seth opened his eyes. I never realized how hazel they were. Like sunlight through whiskey.
"Well you are my-" I stopped. Was he my boyfriend? We never really said anything about it.
"What?" A small smirk crossed his lips, lightening the mood.
"I don't know. We don't have to talk about it right now." I shrugged.
"Please. Anything to get my mind of the stress." It was almost like he was begging.
"Well, are you my boyfriend? Are we an official couple?" I never really had a relationship before Seth. He sat up and kneeled on one knee.
"What are you doing?" I giggled.
"Amelia, will you make me the happiest man in the world and be my girlfriend?" He smiled his perfect smile. I had the biggest smile on my face and nodded.
"No duh Sherlock." And wrapped my arms around him. We tumbled back and I pinned him down. "Took you long enough."
He flipped it around and hovered over me. The soft grass tickled my arms. My eyes kept glancing back to his lips and back to his eyes.
"I think I might kiss you," he whispered leaning closer, his nose was touching mine.
His kiss was gentle. Like I was old china that would break under to much pressure. I tangled my hands in his hair.
We pulled away because, you know air is a thing people need to live. I smile and Seth sat up and I did too. I wanted to kiss him again, but I didn't know if he did.
He did.

Short chapter, sorry. I just though this would be a nice ending.
