8; "I knew that you'd be here." Joe let out a sigh and look ahead as she sat beside him. Millions of thoughts were running through his mind. He couldn't find the word or strength to say anything so instead he kept quiet, hating the awkward silence that surrounds them. "Are you going to speak any time soon?" Joe just shrugged and continued to play with his phone in his hands as she sighs. "Fine, find me when you're ready to talk." Joe grabbed her arm, stopping her from leaving making her stop and look at him again as tears slowly built up in her eyes. "What are you doing here, Demi?" Demi sat next to him again and started playing with fingers as she tried to find the answer for his question. She knew why was she was there, but she didn't think it would be that hard to talk to him. "I'm sorry...." Joe shook his head stopping Demi from speaking and looks at her. "You don't have to be sorry; I was way out of line that day with that kiss... I just thought...." Joe paused and took a breath and let it out. "I guess it was my way of saying that I have feelings for you.... I didn't even think about what you feel, I just thought you had feeling for me too." Demi turned on the chair and faced Joe, looking at his face, taking in his handsome feature for a while before taking his hand in to hers making him turn to face her. She frowns, noticing his eyes dull and sad, knowing that it was because of her and her fears that he become like that. She hated that he wasn't the same Joe as before because of her. She cupped his face in her hands, caressing it softly, along his scruffy jaw and cheeks as Joe looked at her, wondering what she was doing, leaning on to her touch and closed his eyes, loving her soft touch. Before he could open his eyes again, to say something, he felt a pair of soft lips on his, bringing him back to the sweet heaven that he tasted that say at the hospital. He kissed her back without any hesitation, bringing her closer to him as he deepened the kiss. He opened his eyes slowly and pulled ever so slightly, holding on her tight, looking into her eyes, smiling as she smile back at him, leaning their foreheads together. "Don't run." "Never again." ------- Part 2 next.
