Against my will

My heart stopped a beat when I heard it. Instead of feeling butterflies in my stomach, my palms started to get wet. I wanted to believe it was a dream but the reality in front of me didn't let me do it. If he had confessed in other situations, I might have gladly accepted but after everything, his confession terrified me.

“Y-you what?” I gulped. “Did I hear it wrong?” I mumbled.

He pulled me a little closer, grabbing my hands. “I have been doing all the things I should never do since the day I met you. I couldn’t go away from you, I couldn’t see anyone with you, and I want to blow people’s heads if I feel they are taking you away from me. I… fucking fell for you. What the hell did you do to me?”

I freed my hands from his grip and pushed him away, shouting “You lost your mind.”

When he was about to take another step forward, I ran away. I couldn’t take a proper breath till I left his house. When I reached the road, I panted so hard. I put my palm on my chest as I recalled our moments.
