Romance

She loved him but she was so confused this would be her first real true love so everything was new to her the way she felt when they kissed each other the way his warm touch felt when he touched her the way he made her laugh when she was upset it was like he could make everything feel so much better when he came around, there was just one problem though there was always just this airy feeling with her that something just wasn't right and i don't know call it woman's intuition or whatever you may want to but something just didn't seem right and she could never quite pur her finger on it but deep down she felt something just wasn't sure what it was exactly just yet but she loved him that she was sure of . He came in the room with the sweetest yet manliest smell that she have ever smelled wasn't really close with her father let a lone even knew him really so she couldn't compare it to that but was somewhat of an angelic smell if that makes any sense but was an aroma that she loved. So he comes in smiling with a glittery shiny gold bronze like small gift bag here bink he says as his nickname that he had given her "what's this ?! " she exclaims in a surprised but happy confused kinda tone what's this for she says again he just smiles and says just because i love you so much she smiles and happily but hesitantly opens the gift that was given to her in it read a small thank you card that read: You are the love of my life you are simply the most beautiful best friend i have indeed i love you binky butt butt yours truly E, and she continues to the little gold box that was also wrapped so neatly in gift tissue paper she opens it and a beautiful gold platted chain was inside attached to it was a gold shimmery star she smiles so hard aww thank you baby i love it he said i knew you would he continues to say it reminded me of you when i seen it because you are the star in my life aw she says again and he proceeds to put it on her that night she made him dinner Roasted Garlic chicken some sauteed green beans and buttery mashed potatoes she loved to cook by the way it was kind of her happy place so anyway though she made his plate. while he was in the shower i'm guessing he must' ve forgot it because she heard a vibrating on the kitchen counter it was his blue phone sitting right there and it was unlocked he never kept it unlocked, at first she didn't pay it any mind until it vibrated again she couldn't help but to look this time so she proceeded over to the kitchen counter where it layed and at first she thought she was seeing things maybe a little too tipsy she had already drunken about 2 1/2 cups of her favorite grape fruity favorite wine before she picked it up and just stared at the name first " Wifey" it read two missed calls and a text that read : "hey baby, where are you, your food is getting cold and you promised you would be home before nine tonight." it was already going on about 10:30 already her heart sink so low it felt like she couldn't breathe for a second she gulped and slid against the kitchen counter til she landed on the kitchen floor face in palms and just cried this was her first love her one and only she didn't or couldn't see anyone else because she loved him so much so this was all new to her once again she didn't know what she was feeling just knew that it hurt and not just any hurt this was a pain in her chest knot in her throat suffocating kind of hurt and before she could even gather her thoughts she felt his warm manly but yet cold touch touch her gently he had seen the phone that out of shock im guessing she had threw across the room im so sorry baby i love you so much im so sorry was all he kept repeating the pain she felt quickly turned to rage "Just Get Out" Get Out Of My House Now she said in an uneasy loud but soft tone he tried to speak again but she yelled louder startling him this time "GET OUT OF MY HOUSE NOW" He gathered his things head held low as if ashamed and quickly proceeded out the door when the door closed she jumped a little and cried some more she couldn't believe it but deep down she knew it was something so i guess this was the feeling that she had felt all along
