Burn Bright

The morning came way too early for my liking. Sean was banging on my door at 6:30 in the morning tell me get up, he made me shower and look professional to impress the banker. While I got dressed, he took my bags to my car so we can drop off the money and my tings at Gerard’s in one trip. Tonight would also be the night I tell my parents I’m not going to marry the stranger I had never met before.

The bank took a lot longer than I would have liked it to take. 3 hours to be exact. They said it ws because it was a lot of money I was withdrawing but I think they just took their time because they had wanted to piss me off. When they asked why I would need this money I honestly told them why. Many of the women looked sympathetic while the men didn’t know how to look or what to do. But still I was able to get my money.

I put the money into a bag that matched the bags that I had packed my things into, I trust Gerard with my life I just hope he doesn’t go snooping in any of my bags. Sean and I took my car to the bank, but instead of coming with me to drop my things off at Gerard’s house, he said he was going to visit the bakery that was doing the cake for his wedding and that he would take a bus back to my house. I instead on giving him a ride but he just shook his head and told me to go on. On the way over to Gerard’s house I sent him a text saying I was on my way. When I pulled up to his house he was waiting on his laen for me.

“I’ll help.” He said as he pulled two of my bags and I grabbed the other two and we put them on the bed of his room.

“Thanks, I’m gonna head back home now and-” I was cut off by Gerard hugging me.

“Uh? Can I help you?” I asked.

“Hug me back.” He ordered.

I gave him a quick squeeze then dropped my arms.

“Kasey, a real hug, I know you know what they are.” He teased me.

I laughed and wrapped my arms around him and snuggled my head into his neck. We stayed like that for a few minutes, until I lost it. I didn’t even feel the tears form in my eyes, but I did feel them come pouring out of my eyes and I felt myself sob into Gerard’s arms as he rubbed my back and brought me over to his bed. He sat down and placed me on his lap as I cried into his chest. He didn’t object to anything, he just held me until I stopped.

“Sorry about that.” I said as I pulled away and wiped my eyes.

“It’s okay, I know you better than you think.”

“I guess you do.” We both laughed and I stood up. “Well I got to go, you know, tell my parents and all. I tell you how things go when it’s over.”

“Okay.” He said and walked me to my car. He leaned in my window and kissed my cheek before I drove off. As I did, I felt my cheeks start to burn.

Was I getting feelings for my best friend?
