-----------------------------------------------------------
When a girl is quiet, Millions of things are running in her mind...
She lifted her hands swiping rashly at the errant strands that broke loose framing her face. Her eyes transfixed on the road before her, her mind rashly transfixed on the silence. She exhaled loudly her eyes daring to take a glance at the solemn figure beside her.
He sat shoulders haunched, Orbs distinctively attached to his fidgeting fingers, the look apparent to the one he wore the evening before. He exhaled just as she had, his rigid frame leaning towards the window, his forehead against the window pane, eyes captivated by the blurring landscape before him.
"Don't" He murmered his lips barely moving, facial features set in concrete.
"Don't you think we should talk about this?" She reasoned her eyes leaving the road to meet his.
"Hope not" He replied bluntly, turning his attention to her. "Shift's almost over..." He stated clarifying the time. His voice wavering in an awkard Manner.
"Yeah" she paused momentarily. The image of their possible downfall assualting her.
"i've been waiting to talk to you about something" He spoke calmly, almost as if he was attempting to convery some sort of self control. He Leaned forwards his head cocked towards hers, eyes staring, almost peircing hers trying to convey the message he had been waiting so long to tell her.
"What is it" She smiled wiping away frustrating raven hairs that obscured her veiw. "You okay" She asked leaning forward to look closely into his eyes her smile growing wider at the suspense and mystery. "Yeah" He nodded concisely, leaning forward his lips parted "it's nothing like that" he stated clearly leaning closer to her, his eye lids heavy, his breath hitching in his throat, her breath warm against his lips as he contined leaning towards her, merely inches away from his goal. "Bobby" She spoke clearly, her head turned away from him. He halted in his movements, Stunned from rejection, his head bowed as the slow realization dawned over him. An audible "oh" destroying the silence, Hurt oozing from every pore of his being. "I'm Sorry Kim.." "No, Bobby it's fine" "No i'm sorry I just..." "Bobby" her words peirced him "i said it's fine okay" She sighed, the two remaining in complete silence.
"Your awful Quiet today" Bobby probed, the silence frustrating him, His thumb and forefinger fidgeting in aprehension. His mind silently screaming. His body and mind wishing he was anywhere but the small confines of a bus.
"i'm just thinking.. that's all" she stated clearly. Her voice ultimately telling him that it was not open to discussion.
"about"
"Bobby" she warned him in a frustratingly tangible tone. As they pulled into the fire house. "Leave it".
"You know i've been thinking about that same thing all day" He whispered to himself. Guilt ravishing what was left of his nerves.
"Look Bobby.. we'll go out before shift tomorrow.. we really need to talk" she sighed watching him nodding slowly in compliance. "see you then" she sighed getting out of the bus.
"Yeah... see you then" He sighed.
