The Runaway

Back to Sweden

I heard my phone go off,but the sound was faint, and I decide to ignore it and looked at Matthew.His warm smile making me happy again. He reached out and touched my hand.I looked him straight in the eye. He pulled me in closer, our faces inches away from each other and ran his hand through my brown wavy hair.I wrapped my arms around his neck, and he wrapped his around my waist.He leaned down to kiss me, then stopped.I brushed my lips against his and he put a hand in the back of my head, pulling me in closer.Suddenly I felt a hard jolt on my shoulder and cried out in pain blinded by the sudden light. It takes my eyes a second to adjust but when they do I see beautiful brown eyes.

"We need to get up and pack" Yohio moaned holding on to me still.I then remembered what happened last night and how he had pulled onto him, hugging me tightly.

"Five more minutes" I say before drifting back asleep.He tugs on my arm again but I keep my eyes closed. He lifts me up and sets me next to him on the bed.My eyes flutter open and I slowly get up of the bed.I put the few things I had unpacked back in my suitcase and Yohio started packing his stuff.By the time he was done packing we had only twenty minutes before we had to leave.I sat on my bed and stared at the white wall in front of me.

I have to tell him I think to myself, and look down at my bracelet.I shake my head and sigh but get up and walk two doors down to his room.I stand there a minute letting my hand hover on the door thinking of what I'll tell him.I knock on the door and wait.Matthew comes to the door and lets me in.

His parents are gone so this is the perfect time, but his do I tell him? I think to myself. I sit at the foot of whoevers bed that was and he sat with me.

"So what's up?" He says, noticing I'm wearing my bracelet and smiles.

" We're leaving, today at 3:00 pm" I say bluntly.I look up at him and see his shocked expression.

" Will I ever see you again?" He asks.

"I..." I start but stop.I look at him and he nods.He then comes closer to me. Holding me closely.I sniff a little and I feel his hand go down my back and to my pants pockets.He slides my phone out of my pocket and enters his phone number in it, then slides it back into my pocket. He keeps his hand on my hip and sighs, still hugging me.

" I'll miss you" he says and I look up at him.I put my head on his shoulder and say

" I'll miss you to"

We hear a knock on the door and we go answer it.Yohio is standing in the hallway. When he sees me come over to the door he says

"We have to go it we want to catch our flight"

I nod and I say I'd meet him in the lobby.He nods and drags our suitcases to the elevators.I step out into the hallway and look at Matthew one more time before joining Yohio in the elevator.We head for the airport and get on a plane. While we're waiting to depart I stare at my bracelet and think of Matthew and our date and how we met.I was really going to miss him.I started to drift of to sleep and before I knew it we were back in Sweden.
