I stopped what I was doing and pulled away from him.
Whats wrong, he asked.
Annoyed.
I was silent. trying to put thoughts into words.
I can't do this with someone who doesn't love me.
He started to fluster.
Im just confused right now. I don't know what I want. I don't know what love is.
He said.
I can't do this with someone who doesn't love me.
I repeated.
He took my face in his hands and put his ring (which i had given back to him weeks earlier) on my finger.
He looked me in the eye and said Hannah. I don't know what love is. Maybe this is it. But what i do know is that you are amazing. I'm just confused.
Be with me tonight.
Be with him tonight.
I was already sitting on top of him.
Close to tears.
Did I believe him?
The weight of his ring was heavy on my finger.
He kissed me.
Looked me in the eye.
I love you. I said.
I know you do. He replied.
We sunk back, my heart breaking and the stars watched as I was lied to.
