Got to Be What Tomorrow Needs

Ch. 8

Sing it for the deaf, Sing it for the blind

~~~~ Later ~~~~

I heard someone knock on my door.

“Come in”

I heard the door open and close softly.

“Pinkly?”

Great

“What is it Poison?”

“I’m sorry if I freaked you out earlier. I didn’t know telling you my name was such a big thing to you”

“You couldn’t have. And I shouldn’t have gone off on you like that”

“It’s okay”

“I’m sorry though”

“Don’t worry about it”

“Okay”

I could hear him turn and leave. Before I knew it I spoke,

“Hope”

I heard him stop right at my door.

“Huh?”

I sat up and looked at him.

“My real name is Hope”

Even in the dark I could see him smile.

“Thank-you”

“It was only fair”

Poison walked closer to me and sat down next to me on my bed. He put his hand over mine.

“It was still nice of you. You didn’t have to”

I took a deep breath.

“I think I wanted to from the beginning. Probably why I freaked so much.”

“Wait…what?”

“I don’t like sharing my name, because then if they tell me theirs they get linked to me forever. I don’t know how or why it does. But it’s another part of my so called “gift” that I prefer to call a curse”

“I’m glad that you have this gift”

“Seriously?”

“I wouldn’t be alive right now if it weren’t for your gift”

I looked over at him to see him staring at me intently. Before I knew it he leaned over and kissed my cheek.

“It’s almost midnight. You should get some sleep”

With that he walked out of my room and left me there stunned.

What the hell just happened?

~~~~ Next Day ~~~~

I woke up around 11am, rolled out of bed, and walked over to my bedroom door. I opened the door to find Poison lying there holding on to his gun.

I couldn’t help but smile before stepping over him and going to grab myself a soda before hitting the shower.

I was in the shower when I heard a knock on the door.

“What?”

The door opened a little bit and I heard Poison’s voice.

“You in there Pinkly?”

“Well duh”

“I just wanted to make sure…since you weren’t in your room”

“Ah. Yeah I’m here.”

“Okay”

I heard him shut the door and I just stared at the wall of the shower.

Why did I have butterflies?

~~~~~

After my shower I walked out feeling completely refreshed to run into Lavender.

“About damn time”

Lavender pushed past me, shutting the door behind her. I heard her turn the shower on and start humming whatever song was stuck in her head at the moment. I shook my head and walked to my room to get changed. I passed Poison who merely waved at me from his spot in the kitchen watching the coffee maker.

I couldn’t help but laugh at this.

I was getting dressed in my room when there was a knock.

“Yeah?”

“Coffee?”

“Life saver”

I walked over and opened the door to my room and took my coffee mug from Poison. It was then that I realized I was still half naked. I was in a pair of pink shorts and my black bra.

And guess where his eyes were locked?

That’s right, at the boobage.

“Shit!”

I quickly shut the door to my room and grabbed the black cami I had taken out. I opened the door up again to find him still staring.

“…sorry…”

“It…it’s okay”

“I’m still not used to you guys being here”

“It’s okay”

“Sorry”

“No worries”

“Okay…”

“So…”

“So…”

“The guys still asleep?”

Poison looked over his shoulder then back at me.

“Yep”

“Wanna come in so that you don’t wake them up?”

“Yeah sure”

I stood back and let him walk into my room before shutting the door.

“Music?”

“Yeah what do you have?”

We sat on the floor of my listening to my vast music collection and talking about everything from battling BLI to growing up to music we liked. Just about everything. I don’t know how long we sat there until Lavender opened the door and just about threw food at us.

I guess she figured we would be getting hungry soon.

We ate our sandwich’s’ that she had made and proceeded to talk.

It wasn’t long after that we were lying on the floor of my room side by side.

We were staring at my ceiling in silence.

“Nice glow in the dark stickers”

I couldn’t help but blush.

“I had them in my old room. It’s a small comfort. I would count them when I couldn’t sleep”

“I like them”

“Thanks”

“…Hope…”

I almost didn’t hear him he spoke my name is such a soft voice. I looked over at him to find him staring at me. He rolled onto his side and put an arm on the other side of me. We stared into each other’s eyes before he slowly started to lower his face to mine.

I didn’t know what to do. I was having an internal battle that ended quickly when his lips touched mine.

He kissed me softly at first then harder once I kissed back.

I don’t know why I kissed back.

WHY AM I KISSING BACK!?

“OH MY FUCKING GOD I KNEW IT!!!!”
