He smelled like autumn. Like the smell of roasted pumpkin seeds and the fallen tree leaves. Alicia held him not wanting to loose the scent. He pulled back and unwillingly she let go. She stood and started to walk towards the door. Outside through the window you could see a light rain and the moon shining brightly.
"Alicia, is something wrong?"Brett asked.
"You always seem to want to know if I'm happy or not."
"I prefer people to be happy."
"Like I said before I haven't been too happy for awhile."She looked down at her feet not sure what to do.
"Well, I kind of want to make you happy."
She looked up to find Brett standing only inches away from her. How'd he get so close so quietly. "How can you making me happy, you don't know me?"
"I can. I know how. Your a girl. In the heart your all the same. Yeah, you have different ways of reacting to things, but you all want one thing."
With disbelief she asked,"Yeah? What's that?"
He gently pulled on her chin making her look straight up at him."Love."
She jerked away. How could he know that? Tears came to her eyes remembering the last time she felt love. It seemed so long ago. Jordan. The name rang in her head making her feel numb.
"I didn't mean to bring any bad memories back." Brett said pulling on her chin again.
"No, it's fine."She smiled weakly. He tried pulling her in for another hug. Before he could she shouted,"Don't."
Pushing him away. She didn't want to feel the wanting of someone to hold her again. She didn't want to suffer through that when he left. She whispered,"Please. Don't."
He backed away not knowing what to do at the moment. He stood there in the awkward moments of silence waiting. For what? For him to think of something, possibly or maybe for her to give him some sort of clue.
Alicia wiped the edges of her eyes taking a deep breathe. She spoke calmly, but very quietly,"Come on I want to show you something."
She stuck out her hand not sure if he would except it after her little episode. He quickly grabbed it not sure if he'd ever get this oppertunity back. He then said,"Onward?"
"Onward."
