New Memories

CRUSH IMAGINES

Kairosclerosis: the moment you realize that you're currently happy—consciously trying to savor the feeling.

I got back to my senses when I felt fingertips running around my face. So delicate I could barely feel it. So gentle I couldn't even know if it was a light, soft feather. I could only tell because it could be just a person that could make me feel the tingles I felt right now. The sparks that appeared when he just made contact with my skin. I scrunched my nose and held my breath as I streched. A few of my bones cracked. A small chuckle was released by him and my eyebrows knit together. I managed to open my eyes and caught that beautiful face. His eyes were looking at me as if he was hoping for something. Wide, bright, and glossy as if he was asking for something. Waiting. I could only hope It was me he wanted. I could only hope so. "What?" I whispered. My morning voice not so appealing. C/n grinned and his hand went to caress the side of my face. I closed my eyes once again and leaned into his touch. If I was a feline I would be purring nonstop at his touch every single time. I glanced at him and we both stared bach at eachother. "You're beautiful." My heart sped up and my cheeks turned a shade of red. I was frozen in place and I tried to sttuter the word out as I stood up to go to the bathroom. "Y-you too, you're beautiful."

I closed the door and turned to look at myself in the mirror. Fuck.

I washed my face and brushed my teeth. When I finished I went outside to C/n and sat on the bed next to him where he was laying with an arm under his head and the other arm covering his eyes. "When did you het here?" I asked.

"Not long ago. You sure do sleep a lot."

"What can I say. I wish I could just sleep forever." I answered back.

"I'm sure that's called being dead."

There was a comfortable silence present in the room. I looked at the window and observed everything outside. Every little detail of the trees. Their dark wood and veiny, light leaves. I imagined the tree wrapping me in a hug with it's old branches. I thought of how most trees would survive the seasons. They were strong, slowly dying since their birth. And for now, they'd bask in their beauty. I exhaled and turned to face C/n.

"Will you weep for me when I die, C/n?"

"How could you say such a horrible thing?" He sat up besides me and crossed his legs.

"It's not like I'm going to kill myself." I rolled my eyes and continued. "People die all the time C/n. At this moment, a husband could be saying goodbye to his dying wife, a mother to her dying child, a sister or brother to their sibling. Death is the only thing that is definite in this world."

"Yeah That's true..." he said. "But death is just one sad aspect of the multitude of aspects of being alive Y/n. There's a lot more to life than death. All you need to do is be yourself. Break your walls open and let people in. It's the life that counts, the people you spend it with, and how you decide to spend it. To wake up each morning and looking forward to make new memories. It's something that even death can't take away from you..."

I thought of what we said and finally made eye contact with him. I gave him a small smile and he showed me his perfect teeth back. C/n stood up and went to put something on the disco player. "C/l/n you've got an amazing taste in music."

"What can I say. I look forward to making new memories with you everyday Y/l/n."

The Zephyr Son by Red Hot Chili Peppers.

C/n started in a high pitched voice and I threw my head back as I chuckled.

Can I get your hand to write on

Just a piece of leg to bite on

What a night to fly my kite on

Do you want to flash your light on

I continued to sing the rest of the song with him and stood up to jump with him. He was using my brush as a microphone and I was using an almost empty bottle of water. We must've looked so stupid doing this but we were having fun. And that's something to be ashamed of later. The atmosphere was not uncomfortable and I felt like I could do anything without being judged. We laughed at our silly mistakes and silly moves. We were having a very good time.

Fly away on my zephyr

I feel it more than ever

And in this perfect weather

We'll find a place together

In the water where I center my emotion

All the world can pass me by

Fly away on my zephyr

We're gonna live forever

Forever

We were cackling by the end. Laying on the floor with my hair spreading in different directions and C/n lying breathless next to me. I raised my leg and admired my socks with little red apples plastered on the fabric. C/n also raised his legs and both our feet touched. We laughed because it was so stupid.

After a while, we were just staring at each other in a comfortable silence. C/n was looking at my face and I was looking at him. We were so shamelessly checking each other out.  We were getting closer and closer. C/n caressed my face once more as his elbow supported his top half. He did it ever so gently. He made me feel such an unfamiliar sensation. And so good. Our lips were brushing against one another and our breaths mixing together in a splendid manner. I wanted the feeling to last forever.

"What are we doing?" I whispered. "I don't know." He answered.

"Do you...want to stop?" He said.

"Not really." I touched the side of his face with my fingers. This moment felt so intimate yet so innocent. He wrapped an arm around me to bring me closer. "Then that's all we need to know right now." he said.

Our lips met with a light force. I'd waited too long to feel his lips against mine like that and it was finally hapening. I wanted this moment to last forever. The feeling of his lips on mine for the first time.

The kiss was deep and ravenous. Our tongues dueled together and our estatic moans filled the room. We couldn't seem to get enough of each other.

"Slower." I whispered. He went slower but it was not enough. C/n kissed up and down my neck and jaw. It felt thrilling and so loving, but it was not enough to do it. "Slower." I repeated as I moaned again.

"What are you trying to do Y/n." He said as he pecked me once more on the lips.

"Trying to stop time." I held him closer with my hands on his hair.

"You have me right here." He kissed me with more passion. It was exciting. "I'm here with you Y/n. I won't let you go."

I won't let you go either C/n.
