3 Last Words and a Final Kiss
I sat cross legged on the couch watching the TV, of course nothing was on that could distract me from thinking about him. His smooth voice, hazel eyes and lips on mine. I breathed deeply and shook the thoughts away; I couldn’t live for the next six months like this.
I picked up the remote and casually flicked through the channels, suddenly sitting up straight as a news bulletin cut through the usual programming, flashing BREAKING NEWS down the bottom corner. My chest tightened, and I stared at the screen for a few minutes watching the news unfold. Finally, I’d had enough. I uncrossed my legs and stood up, leaving the room and walking slowly into my own. Shutting the door behind me gently, I stared at my room not taking in anything I saw. Instead I put my headphones in and pressed play on my iPod, hands trembling. His guitar playing calmed my nerved, as his brothers voices sang through. The gentle strumming blocked out my thoughts. I sank down onto my bed, my head moulding a shape in my pillow. I clutched my iPod tight in one hand, the other longing to be held in his hands, familiar and warm, but he wasn’t there.
Tired of staring at my white ceiling, I closed my eyes, thoughts now running at a million miles, my heart thumping at just the same rate. Only the soothing music calmed me down enough. I remembered the night before, our last night before he left for a six month tour, the longest we had ever spent apart.
He had been right here on this bed, but the situation was so much different to the present. I yearned to feel his arms wrap around me, to console me, tell me it’s not true and to give me strength, just as they had done last night. I let my mind wander going over every detail, every moment of the night before…my memories.
-Previous Night-
Kevin’s hand was entwined with mine, as his strong arms were wrapped around me. I lay beside him my head resting on his chest, listening to every thump of his heart. He breathed deeply causing me to lift my head slightly allowing me to see the expression he wore on his face. His brows were together and his hazel eyes looked clouded and upset. I squeezed his hand gently and he hugged me tightly not wanting to let go.
“Kevin, its six months. We can do this.” I assured him, even though I knew it would drive me insane, six months without his kisses, his smooth voice and his body next to mine. They were thoughts I never wanted to have cross my mind.
“I know, I know…but I can’t help think how much I’ll miss you, every second of everyday.” I sat up a bit, so my head could lean on his shoulder. I watched as his fingers played with mine, calluses I knew so well running over my palm. I looked up at his face, and into his eyes searching for an answer.
“Kevin when you think of us, what do you see?” I asked quietly, half curious and half afraid. Kevin leant down and gently brushed his warm lips against mine, sending my mind spinning in a million directions and my breath caught in my throat.
“When I think of us, I think of you Kat, the most beautiful, amazing girl to have graced this planet. I think of how much you mean to me and the pain I feel when I’m away from you. I see our past, our love that has steadily grown into something more than either of us could have imagined. I see us now,” He hugged me tight. “together, happy and knowing that even when we’re apart nothing can divide us, we’re inseparable…Then…then I see our future.” I held my breath longing to hear what words would escape his lips. “I see us becoming even more in love, growing stronger together as the days go by.” He paused. “Getting married and starting a family.” I smiled upon hearing his words. “And growing old together before living together in eternity.” He stopped only to make me go weak with his touch as his lips come on mine, sweetly lingering before pulling back.
“What do you see?” Kevin asked giving a shy smile that kept my pulse racing. I thought for a moment, and then stared into his eyes, now clear with honesty.
“What you see, I see, what you want, I want…I am yours and you are mine.” I replied softly, breathing deeply as I thought of the time away from him.
“Hey, just remember that I am with you no matter how far apart we are. I have been giving you a part of me everyday since I met you and it’ll never stop. You-” He took my hand in his warm fingers and pressed it against his chest letting me feel the beat below. “You have my heart.” I blinked back tears that were soon going to flow.
“And you have mine.” I barely whispered, now unable to hold back tears, his finger brushing away each one as they fell.
“I have to go.” He said, breathing into my ear. I shook my head and buried it into his chest now stained with the tears rolling down my cheeks. He didn’t say anything but just rocked me gently, rubbing my back soothingly, holding me tight against him.
Eventually he pulled me up and off my bed, I stared at his face trying to memorise every last detail, every strand of hair, the line of his jaw. He slipped his hand into mine and we walked out to his car, the only light was from the crescent moon in the black sky.
“Call me as soon as you land.” I said to him, not wanting to spend any more than a second from hearing his voice.
“I will, I promise.” He replied, giving me a smile.
“I love you Kevin and I’ll miss you, but like you said…we’re inseparable.” I smiled slightly staring up at his face. His eyes were on me and he brought me close, so our bodies were pressed against each other, his arms around my waist. He leant down into the shell of my ear and his smooth voice sent a shiver through me.
“I love you.” Then he unwrapped his arms, one stayed around my waist and the other stroked my cheek and then slid behind my neck as his lips for one last time, pressed against mine. All his passion and love sent through this one kiss, spreading warmth through my body. My hand rushed to his soft curls, running through them. While my other hand cupped the side of his face feeling his skin, warm under my touch. We broke apart breathless, exchanging no more words but knew exactly how we felt, our love couldn’t be broken.
His eyes never left mine as he got into his car and started the ignition; I watched him drive off as his car turned the street corner and went out of my sight.
-Present-
I heard my door squeak and I opened my eyes, as my mum carefully walked in. I pulled out my headphones and sat up, my mum sitting down beside me.
“Honey, have you seen the news?” She asked quietly, her face pale. I could only nod as my body broke down and into my mums comforting arms, tears ran with no end in sight.
“Everything will be alright, are you sure it’s the same plane?” She asked her hands running over my back. I choked as I answered, hardly able to breathe.
“The very one…set for Germany, that should have landed now.” I whispered, staring at the clock on my phone, which was waiting for a call that would now, never come.
He was gone, everything I had ever wanted, every dream I ever saw was of him. I had his heart, his words and songs. He held my heart forever and into eternity. Like he said, we are inseparable. I thought of his callused hands that would never reach out for me again, his soft lips that wouldn’t brush against mine and his voice that would never again, tell me that he loved me. But he didn’t need to, I had him inside of me, I had our memories and I knew what would have been our future. My mind played back to last night, his smile and touch. His last three words and our final kiss.
