I stayed by the door long after he left. Just… standing there. Like if I moved, everything that just happened would suddenly become real. My fingers brushed against my lips slowly. He didn’t say it. He didn’t say “this ends here.” And that alone? That told me everything. I went downstairs to find out what my mom interrupted us for and I almost got upset. She just needed me to help her on a post on Instagram. Like what do you mean you interrupted such a beautiful moment because you needed help with a post on insta??After helping her, I let out a quiet breath and turned, walking back to my room. I got to my bed dropping onto it again.My heart was still racing, but this time… it felt different. I stared at the ceiling, replaying the way he looked before he left. I couldn't tell how he felt or if he was going to give in or completely push back if I tried again.A small smile tugged at my lips.“Yeah…” I whispered softly. “You’re slipping.” I rolled on my bed excitedly and force

I tried to sleep but it just wasn't coming so I stayed on my bed for a while, staring at nothing, thinking about you know who. I think I might be a little obsessed at this point. I smiled to myself, because yeah… I had him. Maybe not fully, but enough.A knock on my door pulled me out of my thoughts. My heart jumped a little. Could it be him? I don't think so tho.“Who is it?” I called out, trying to sound normal.The door opened and this time, It was Mac.He stood there for a second, not saying anything, just looking at me.That same look and my heart started doing that thing again. I sat up slightly, pretending to be casual, Trying not to look too desperate, meanwhile I just wanted to jump on him and kiss the fuck out of him.“What?” I asked.He stepped in and shut the door behind him, that alone made my stomach flip.“You need to stop,” he said.That was really straight to the point.I blinked once, then smiled.“Stop what?”His jaw tightened.“You know what.”I tilted my head, wat

I didn’t even bother closing my door fully when I got to my room. I just pushed it halfway and dropped my bag on the floor, letting out a slow breath.My heart was still beating faster than normal. Not because of what just happened…But because of what didn’t happen. He keeps pulling away.I flopped onto my bed, staring up at the ceiling, replaying everything again.The way he looked at me, the way his voice dropped, the way he stepped back like it physically cost him something.I smiled slightly.“Yeah… this definitely isn’t over,” I muttered to myself while rolling to the other side. I just laid there in thoughts for a while. I didn't even know when time went by. A soft knock on my door made me sit up. I smiled cause I hoped it would be Mac. “Yeah?” The door pushed open a little more. My mom. Of course. She leaned against the frame, arms crossed loosely. “You’re home,” she said. “Yeahh... I took the bus,” I replied casually, sitting up straighter. She nodded slowly, studying

Dinner that night was both awkward and wholesome. I avoided eye contact with Mac throughout the dinner and it seemed like he was doing the same too. I was a bit upset with what he said but I wasn't going to give up just like that.That night I barely slept, not because I couldn’t…but because I didn't want to.Every time I closed my eyes, it replayed. The way his hands felt, the way he looked at me, the way everything almost went too far…And how close we were to getting caught. And I would honestly do anything to do that again.... I mean except the almost being caught by mom part.I turned over in my bed, letting out a quiet sigh and eventually forced myself to sleep.The next morning felt… normal, like yesterday didn’t even happen. I got ready slowly, dragging things out longer than I needed to, because part of me didn’t want to go downstairs.When I finally walked into the kitchen, my mom was already there, scrolling through her phone while sipping coffee.“Morning B,” she said casua
