《The Match ✓》Chapter 38💃🏻
Advertisement
His phone rings on the table, and he picks it up and leaves the room rather quickly to answer it. I don't know why but a pang forms inside my heart for the strangest reason which I can't seem to explain but I want it to go away. It's a mixture of this strange pain and anger that doesn't leave me alone, it's odd and I can't seem to understand it but I don't think I'm meant to understand the feelings that I have. We were watching a movie which we both picked and I have it on pause and now I'm rather bored.
It has been a couple of minutes since he stepped outside to take that phone call, and he hasn't returned, I can't seem to help but wonder what it is about. Still this is none of my business, and he can be as long as he needs on the phone, it could be his mother for all I know. I might not have a relationship with mine but that doesn't mean that he doesn't have one with his mother. My fingers are fidgety and I'm doing whatever I can to pass the time while waiting for him.
The police have my phone, but they said that I could have it back tomorrow but there is no pressure for them to do that, I don't need my phone that much. Besides its better that way, I'm ignoring the one person that would call me which is my dad and my best friend Mark came to the hospital a day ago and told me that he had to go visit his aunt who has just given birth, and she is in bad condition from some complications at birth, and they don't know if she will make it, and she lives in Spain, so he traveled there.

The door opens and Steels walks in with a look that is unreadable, though his eyes are anything but happy. If I'm not wrong I'd say that they were angry. "I have to go... I have a match" He speaks. I notice as soon as he walks over to me and sits down next to me his eyes start to soften and a small tug at his lips and a hint of a smile comes to his face. I try not to look disappointed that he has to leave because I'm having the time of my life with him, it's nice being around him.
"A match?" I ask him. He had not mentioned it before but then again he did come to pick me up at the hospital, and he even refused to talk about anything which is about him. Though I thought that was just because he was worried about me since I was in the hospital, but still I really want to know how he is doing since he was in jail which he still has not told me about and I'm honestly not sure how to think about that nor do I know how to ask. Steel nods his head at my question.
"Come with me" He speaks and I freeze when he says those three words and I find the butterflies in my stomach fluttering like they are trying to escape, but they have nowhere to go, so they keep flying everywhere inside my stomach and bother me. "I have never... I mean I don't know how to be around in there. With all the fighting" I tell with, rather awkwardly. Steel already knows of my past but all of it, there are parts that I kept to myself. Violent parts.
He takes my hands into his and the blood instantly gets sent to my cheeks as I can already feel them redden and I have no idea how to stop this nor if I want it to stop. "I'll keep you safe" He whispers to me. His voice is so soft and gentle as I know that he will keep his word but at the same time there is this hint of anger that I'm not sure that I want to explore. I slowly nod my head as I look into his eyes. "All right, I'll go with you" I say to him.

It's after all the least that I can do after the things that happened to him, I'm the reason that he got sent to jail and was arrested and I'm the reason that I'm here right now. In his apartment but I'm here with him where my heart is safe and sound and the darkness is so far away. Also, he did watch me dance and I felt like I needed him there, he needed to see it. I see the bright smile come to his face and I can't help but beam at it.
His smile does something to me. "Will you get hurt?" I ask him as he helps me stand up. Steel lets out a chuckle. He stands in front of me and pulls my body closer to him and I look up at his face as he is still so tall. "Don't worry about me" He whispers to me, and then he leans down and pecks my lips. I stand there frozen when he backs away and smirks at me. "Good luck doesn't hurt anyone" He speaks but I'm in so much shock tag the moment to do anything.
Steel's lips had come in contact with mine, and they were so warm and so lifelike and just amazing, even if it was just for a minute, even less than that. Three seconds at most and it were the best three seconds of my life and I can barely even remember them. "You coming or what?" He asks me as I realize that I have been standing in the same spot for some time while he has already gotten himself ready to leave. I let out a gulp as I nod my head and move my legs that feel like jelly.
