Warning: cursing, mentions of self-harm, kissing
I tried to comprehend what just happened over there. There were many thoughts running through my head; I was so nervous about what just happened. I had so many emotions and thoughts running through my head. I just couldn’t think straight. 177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAG7QyjHGEW
I leaned my head on Liam’s chest and started to cry my eyes out. “Ash, are you okay?” Liam asked, while he was hugging me. I didn’t reply. I kept on crying on Liam’s chest. “It’s okay, just let it all out, Ash.", "Crying helps relieve stress.” Liam said while rubbing my back. “Do you need me to get anything for you? Like maybe a snack or?” Said Liam, “No, I-I think I’m f-fine.” I said, my voice and bottom lip trembled while tears rolled down my cheeks. “Aw, c’mon now. Don’t be sad, it hurts me to see you like this now. You’ll ruin your adorable face.” Liam then put his cold hands on my red cheeks and squished them. “Now, smile for me, kay?” I nodded, my final tears gliding down my face. I suddenly felt relieved of all my pain, the world around us both was nonexistent. Now, it was just me and Liam, alone. This somehow brought me comfort and I buried my face in his chest.
"Now tell me, why were you crying?" Liam asked, sympathetically. "Well.." I sniffled, "I actually lied about something", I said hesitantly. "Was it about the guy we ran into?", he asked. "Yeah...you see, he once was my boyfriend...", I admitted, trying to stop crying, "That jackass was your boyfriend?!", Liam exclaimed. "Yeah, I was lonely when I met him and...", I choked up on my words. Liam proceeded to bury my face in his chest once again. "Hey, don't worry about", Liam said, "I understand why you didn't want to tell me", he said, giving me a sympathetic smile.
Right at that moment, I wanted to cry. It was like Liam was meant to be in my life. He made me feel happy, comfortable, and all of the right feelings. It's like I had been saved, in a sense. After my break-up with Seung, I had gone through a dark time; thinking that I would either be lonely or with bad people. I went through a period of self-harm, whether it be through cutting myself, burning myself, giving myself rope burn, or by other means. My mom seemed to notice my change in mood and she suggested that I see a therapist. I did as she said and I got better over time. However, I still felt like I had a void in me that needed to be filled. That's when I started working at Sky-Break.
I started working at Sky-Break as a distraction. It was only meant to be temporary, as well. My goal was to find something that filled the void as close to the top as possible. Though I didn't plan on staying long, Sky-Break did the best it could at filling my emptiness and I felt at home. Now, it feels as if the remaining space has been filled by Liam. His presence alone is able to make me feel safe. I think that has been what I've been seeking for all along.
I sat down on a swing and kicked my feet off the ground, giving me air. Liam joined me on the swing, next to me, and gained air as well. At first, I was only focused on getting as high as I could, but then the sun glinted in my eye and I noticed Liam. his eyes shone brightly from the sunlight. God, he was so handsome. I dragged my feet on the ground and came to a halt. Liam did the same.
I got off of the swing and walked over to where Liam was sitting. He looked up at me with a smile and stood up. I took a leap of faith and kissed his cheek. I was too embarrassed to look at him, so I buried my face into my hands. He pulled me into a hug and kissed my hair. I looked up at him and he kissed my forehead. No words were said, but it was the best conversation I have ever had with anyone.
