One Decision, that can Change Your Life

“I’ll be right there.”

I looked back over at James. His lip-ring was glinting again, I couldn’t help but notice. He motioned for me to come over. It was so tempting to go.

But should I? I mean, what if he’s a perv or something? He did randomly kiss me… But it wasn’t like a pervy kiss, you know? I was more playful than like, I want you or something.

I looked over at him, then back at the door of the classroom. I don’t know why I did it. Maybe I was sick of being the good girl. Maybe Stephen was bugging me, acting like a puppy, always following me around. Maybe it was just those green eyes.

In any case, I followed him.

I don’t want to sound cheesy, but after I followed him, where he took me, just kind of changed my life. Not really in a bad way, though some people might see it that way. But, he kind of opened my eyes to this world.

A world of booming music, filling the room, surrounding you. A world of color, and sounds mixing together. A world I was sure Stephen had no idea existed.
