Cry's pov
Felix stared right at me. Not at my mask or off into the distance. He actually looked right into my eyes. And I looked right back into his. His eyes didn't wander over my face like I thought they would. They just stared into my eyes with such emotion. I found myself getting lost in his eyes as he did in mine.
"Cry," Felix whispered, only just audible to my ears.
"Yeah?" I whispered back. I was too lost in his eyes to speak any louder.
"Why?" He contiued to whisper. This pulled me back to reality and I looked at him confused.
"Why what?" I asked a little louder than before but still quiet.
"Why hide such a beautiful face from the world?" He asked. I could hear the truth and heart in his words.
"I...," I started but couldn't finish. Was I really willing to tell him that I was self conscious and afraid of others judgements? Was I ready to tell him I was afraid of people's opinions on me? That my mask was a sheild against their thoughts and critisism? Yeah. I was.
"I was afraid," I whispered, looking down.
"Of what?" Felix asked. He shifted closer to me a little and plced his hand on my shoulder.
"Of what others would think of me," I answered honestly. I didn't look up, too afraid of his opinion. I felt his hand move below my chin and life it up so I was looking directly into those amazing blue eyes of his.
"I think you're amazing Cry. With or without the mask on. You have a sweet caring personality and you have amazing looks. Why would you ever think people would judge you for that?" Felix asked.
"I.. really?" I was shocked he said those things. Did he really think that?
"Yes," Felix said with a smile.
I couldn't help myself. It was that smile. The way it raised higher on one side than the other. The way it made his face shine in the dark. The way it complemented those stunning eyes of his. I found myself leaning forward and our lips connected.
I felt Felix tense slightly beneith me before his body relaxed and he began to lean into the kiss. His hand rested against my chest and mine made its way up to his neck. I felt a fire burn in my chest and fireworks in my stomach. My eyes fluttered closed and my heart raced. The kiss only lasted a few seconds but it felt like it lasted forever.
We pulled away for air and I leant my jead against Felix's. Our breath mixed from the closeness and heated our already burning faces. I opened my eyes to see Felix staring at me already, his smile still lingering on his face. The sight made me smile.
"Cry," Felix whispered.
"Yeah?" I whispered back, my smile never leaving.
"We should probably go before they think something's wrong," He said quietly.
"Oh but nothing is wrong," I said, my smile becoming a smirk.
"They don't know that," Felix said with a chuckle. "Besides, I need to pee."
"Way to spoil the moment there charmer," I said sarcastically but leaned away.
"I was trying to be subtle but you wouldn't listen. What else was I supposed to do?" He said as he threw the blankets onto the empty seat next to him. I rolled my eyes and put my mask back on. I climbed out of the truck, holding out a hand after to help him.
He shuffled along the seat before swinging his legs out. I gently lowered him to the ground before supporting him around the waist. He threw one arm over my shoulders and the other held onto the hand I had around his waist. He looked up at me and smiled. I smiled back but I knew he couldn't see it anymore since my mask now covered my face. Just because I showed Felix doesn't mean I'm ready to show everyone else just yet.
We made our way over the a nearby building where the others had headed and knocked on the door. Red answered and smiled when she saw it was us. She stepped to the side and ushered us in, closing and locking the door after. She pointed to a room closest to the door and we headed towards it.
She opened the door for us and I helped Felix inside. I gently loweded him onto a couch that was sitting across the other side of the room and sat down next to him. I watched as Red got out some clean bandages and cloths. I looked over at Felix to see an anxious look on his face.
"Hey, you'll be okay. The dressing just needs to be cleaned and any dirt and bacteria needs to be removed," I asured him.
"But I'm not a salad," Felix said innocently.
"What?" I aksed confused.
"I'm not a salad so I don't need any dressings," he said as he pulled a face. I chuckled and shook my head. Red came over and looked suspiciously between the two of us. We both looked up at her and I could tell if she saw my expression it would say 'what?'.
"What's got you two in such a happy mood?" She asked, placing everything down on the edge of the couch.
"Nothing," Me and Felix said in sync. We looked at eachother and laughed but Red just shook her head.
"Children," she muttered, making Felix and I laugh even more.
"Hey, I'm almost 29 years old. I'm no child," I pouted.
"Oh please. The 20 is silent," Red scoffed. I chuckled and returned my attention to Felix. He was laughing at the entire thing and holding his stomach. I wasn't sure if it was pain from laughing or from the gunshot but either way we needed to change his bandages so he needed to stop laughing.
"Alright you. Take your shirt off," I said casuallly. He immediately stopped laughing and looked at me wide eyed. I realised what I said and mentally face palmed. "So we can change the bandages you idiot."
Sure Cry. Cause thats ALL you're gonna do.
