Killing Jar

"Ava?" Brendon said, coming into the room I was still in. Ryan had been gone for maybe about 10 minutes. I was in a bit of haze, thinking.

All of a sudden there was a hand waving in front of my eyes. I jumped a little and looked at Brendon in surprise.

"You ok?" he asked.

"Yeah," I said. Brendon looked concerned for a moment.

"You sure?" he asked.

"Yeah," I said, smiling. "I'm great."

Brendon looked skeptical for another moment, but finally relaxed smiling.

"So what are you doing in here?" Brendon asked.

"Just thinking," I said.

"About what?" Brendon said.

"I got an idea for a new song," I said.

"That's good," Brendon said. I nodded my head. We stayed silent.

"I think I'm gonna go home," I said, looking at the clock. It was going to get dark soon. "I'm kinda tired."

"Ok," Brendon said. "Let me walk you home."

I smiled at him as I stood up.

"Ok," I said. He took my hand and we headed out.

I kissed Brendon quickly at the door of my apartment when we got there.

"See you tomorrow?" I said.

"Of course," said Brendon. He leaned down to kiss me again. He placed a hand on my waist and pulled me closer to him, as I wrapped my arms around his neck. I didn't want to, but I pulled away after a moment.

"See you later," I said opening my apartment door to go in. Brendon let out a groan.

"You're so cruel," Brendon said. I laughed at him.

"I know," I said. "It's really fun though, being cruel. You should try it sometime."

Brendon smiled and gave me a quick kiss.

"Night," said Brendon. I watched as he headed down the hallway of my building. I went in my apartment and closed the door.

I would've let him in, but if he had ended up staying...I couldn't risk it.
