Love is Mysterious

Torrence Mason


I sit on a rock, watching 2 people fight. Apparently, this Mack kid cheated on a girl named Haylee. When Haylee walks off, I stand in front of Mack and comment to what he did, "Wow. You're such an idiot. How could you break a girl's heart for someone 5 years older than you. I bet that girl turned you down too.". I punch Mack and knock him to the ground. "You give men such a bad name. You should be in hell. Jump off a damn cliff I don't care! You don't deserve a girl as wonderful as she is, and you betray her? Shocker!" I say, letting out anger. I was never like this, but there was something about this girl that was special. I chase after the girl, and call out to her, "Wait!"
I continue running after the girl, she was faster than me. It was hard to catch up to her. I keep running, until sweat drips down my face. It was the perfect timing for it. the girl had a knife to her throat. I run over to her and take the knife out of the girl's hands and tell her,"Listen, I know you are heartbroken, but killing yourself is not the answer. That guy is a complete jerk. He has no clue what he is going to miss out on now that you broke up."I smile at the girl, as my sweat dries up. Great, now I smell like pee. I smile at the girl. She was really beautiful. I doubt she'd try to go for me. She was probably rich and didn't have time for people like me. But who knew, maybe I hit the jackpot.

I see a guy. I know him. He's nice, but if he's going to give me hate, I am killing myself. Wait, he's speaking to Mack. And he's standing up for me. And he just punched him. Wow, I actually like him. DON'T HAYLEE! I've just dealt with heartbreak.

He's decided to speak to me now. He's giving me confidence. I should have known that would happen. I knew about his crush. I can't do anything but smile now.

"Thank you. I don't believe I'm worth anything though. He won't miss me. No one would if I dated them. I'm worthless, hopeless. I'm not smart, I'm not funny, I'm not athletic. I'm just very sensitive and too gullible. Thank you for saying that. Bur I don't believe I'm..."[/center]

I smile at the girl, she thought she was worthless. I start to sweat like crazy, and my shirt looked like I peed in it. "Don't say that about yourself! If you weren't worth anything, than why did I take a black eye for you! I don't care for all that shit that makes people popular. I want the truth from a girl, and nothing else."

I pull at the collar of my shirt to try to get some cold air in to it. I look at the girl, so beautiful. Why did she pause?"The only thing I look for is a personality. I'm no jock guy. Heck, I'm the weakest person I know. I'm even surprised I knocked him down without breaking a hand. But my point is, you have the beauty in the inside. And that is was counts."I say to the girl, obviously preparing to kiss her, but what if I did something wrong? I wasn't the guy the made the first move to kiss someone. No man in my family was. This would actually be my first kiss. I bet she'd hate me when I do it. I tilt my head a bit and lean in to kiss her. I started to sweat like crazy, she'd feel it when I kissed her, if I actually did, and if she felt anything between it.

I smile at the girl, and final let my lips touch hers. And it felt great, getting over my greatest fear, girls. I smile at her, after we kissed for 30 seconds or so. Was that too long? She'd be the one to tell me. I reply to what she said, "Yea, you must be the luckiest girl in the world then?" I smile at the girl, keeping my face close to hers. She was adorable, no wonder I had a crush on her since I was 8. "You know, I always used to call you my girlfriend around my brothers when I was little." I say nicely. This girl was wonderful, and I couldn't imagine why Mack would go and cheat on her! "That Mack kid is a complete idiot." I say and then pause, I didn't know if she'd feel okay about me talking about him or not.

I smile at Haylee, letting her lead me to her house. She told me she was going to get my out of these clothes. I was wearing a white tee shirt and ripped jeans. So it was either that or she noticed my sweat. I follow her to her house. "Quiet time? What do you mean, Quiet time?" I say, limping on my leg because I ran my heart out and my legs gave up. I smile at her again. I decide to make a bit of conversation and comment on the hunger Games, "So, do you think Raquel can actually win the games? I mean, there are 5 people left. The 3 boy is knocking on deaths door.". I put my arm around her shoulder and smile. A different smile now. It was a relieved smile that nothing went wrong. For someone who can't flirt or anything, well, I don't think I can, I think I gave myself a pack on the back.

(Ignore the words in the gif, I needed a pic of Torrence walking)

I look down at the ground. I was really hoping quiet time meant something way different. I sit down in a chair and look around the house. It was so much better than mine. Mine only had 1 room. "I was really hoping quiet time meant something else, but who really cares." I care. It would be too close to the beginning to do what quiet time meant in my eyes. I gulp and ask her a question, and I say it quickly, "Are we a thing?" I begin to get nervous that her reply will be no and I'd be crushed. I mean, she just got out of a relationship.

I smile at her, and get dressed in the clothes she brought for me. "Thanks. And by quiet time, I meant this.." I lean in and kiss her lips, still with her brother's shirt not on. I hug her and continue until a door creeks open. I let go of her quickly as a figure shows up in the doorway. I put on the shirt and wave, nervous that it was her sibling or parent. "Umm.." I say and pause, no sure what to say really. I look at Haylee with my bold eyes, feeling the sense that I was in shit.

"Okay, but hold on." I say and smile at Haylee. I get up, and push a heavy item in front of the door so nobody could get in. I had no clue what the item was, since my house had no furniture, just a few blankets. I smile and take off my shirt again, and continue to kissing her. "Now I have no idea why Mack broke up with you, or cheated on you."

"We have each other. And that's all that matters." I say, practically falling in love with her. It was too cool. I was the first guy in my family to have a girlfriend! And I'm the 4th oldest! "Haylee, can we move somewhere so I can sit, my ankle is killing me." I say in a painful voice. It still hurt from running that fast. Don't outdo yourself, Tor.. I think about what we were gonna do next. I move in closer to her. I didn't have much muscle, but I wasn't a weakling. I hear a knocking on the door. "Just ignore it, its not worth seeing who it is."

I sit down on a chair and motion Haylee with my hands. I smile, with my mouth open a bit. "That would be so weird if one of those PeaceKeeper things came in and like attacked us because we should be doing this." I say as I sit her down and lean on her arm. "Put your head on my shoulder. It helps me fall asleep when someone does it. I mean, I hope you don't mind. Its a tight squeeze at my house. I was hoping you wouldn't mind letting me stay here for the night." I say and give her my normal puppy dog eyes. I smile at her, and kiss her cheek. I was tired from all the running around I did. I had to run to get Haylee, and chase my brother back home, which took 5 hours alone. "Other than this, have you been having the best day ever?"

"Babe, you choose. Surprise me." I say and stand up next to the chair. "If its no clothes besides underwear and all that tell me, because I get sensitive to people touching me there." I say and smile at her. A relieved smile that I got to stay here. I honestly got kicked out of my house for 3 days because I tried to smack my brother because we wouldn't stop screaming. I take her hand and look at her. "There are no wrong answers to this Haylee. We may be a bit too young to go all out, though."

"Well, sharing a bed would make me feel happier. And I never sleep with pyjamas. I always sleep with a bra and pants on, that's all. You wear what makes you feel comfy in. It would only be kisses and hugs though. I agree that we are too you to go all out yet." I say to him as. Take off my top and trousers. I should feel embarrassed, but I don't. I felt embarrassed around Mack when doing this. He forced me though. He did horrible things to me. I wouldn't tell anyone though. I bet that Torri can tell that something happened though. I had marks all over my body from sexual harrassments.

I look at Haylee, she looked worried. I take of my pants and put on the shorts I kept in my bag. I used them for sleeping, not for walking around. "You okay? You look a bit worried." I say, feeling concern for her. I started to get very nervous. She's going to hate me! I can just feel it in my gut. I look at her and make a fake smile. I knew something was up with myself, I just didn't bother to care. I shake my head, and look at the door. It was either do the scariest thing I've done in my life, or walk out that door like a wimp. "Lead the way Haylee." I say in a higher pitch voice than usual. I gulp and take her hand. I rest my head on her shoulder. "I guess I'm even more tired than I thought." I say yawning. We were too young to do this, but I couldn't be a coward and run away from it. That's what I always did. And that Mack kid is going to be out that door waiting. I'd rather face a big fear than be known as a coward to the girl I love.

"What, yeah I'll be alright. Just bad memories, that's all. And if you want pyjamas on, don't worry. I can put on easily. This may be your first time doing this, but the reason I feel used to doing this is because Mack bullied me into this. And worse. Literally sleeping with nothing on. And having to do things. I would never do that to anyone, especially you. If you want to sleep in pyjamas or even clothes, just say." I tell him. The last thing I want is for him to feel uncomfortable.

"That guy was a huge jerk. Looks like you had it way harder than me. I just, don't know if we're doing the right thing. But I'd rather do this than be a coward and a wimp like everyone thinks I am." I smile at her, a nervous smile, and start to sweat again. Man, I really just want to leave, but I can't be that guy that fears everything in life. I needed to prove to myself that I won't be that person. "Sorry about me sweating a lot. It apparently runs in my family." I say and kiss her cheek. We went into this so soon, and I didn't have the guts to say no at the right time.

"I know he is. I just can't get used to not sleeping like this. I am not him though. If you want to sleep in pyjamas, that's fine. Anyways, I know that we are young. But the worst I would do is hug you? But Torri, you aren't a wimp if you prefer pyjamas. In fact, my first time doing this, I was exactly how you were. Only, I was beaten up. And I was forced to strip and sleep with him. Who knows why I stayed with him. I would never wish that upon you though." I say. I feel really bad if he does this for me. I love him, and I don't want him feeling like I did last month.
