as she told him of this other boy, his heart sunk.  but he kept his face stoic. 

“well… you may want to resolve things at home first.” he shruged lightly trying to make it seem as if it didn’t matter to him.  as the tears began to brim in her eyes, he wrapped her in his arms, pulling her close him.  as he head tucked below his chin the smell of her began to overload his senses.  he realised that his skin was burning, but only where her skin touched him. 

“i know… but i can’t.  he’s a good guy.  he really is.”  tears streamed down her cheeks and he hugged her close.

“but if he’s not the one, its best to let him know that.” resting his chin on her head, tears formed in his eyes, but he blinked them away, wanting to be strong for her.  “don’t worry about it.  you worry too much.” he said kissing the top of her head.  “come here.”  he said laying back in the bed, he pulled her to him held her close.
