"Then say it." Tay drew in closer and touched Vera's cheek.

Vera’s cheek tingled where Tay’s hand brushed it. Tears filled her eyes. “I— I can’t. I wish I could, but…” Her heart throbbed.

Tay leaned in even more, causing their noses to touch. "Please?"

They were out of sight of the school now. Vera’s breath caught as she looked up into Tay’s eyes. “I— I don’t want to hurt you.”, she said miserably, trying to force her body to move away, and failing.

Tay ran his hands through her hair, "You could never hurt me."

Vera gasped softly, leaning into the touch. “No— you don’t understand— I..” She trailed off, a tone of desperation ringing in her voice as she tried so hard to pull away. She couldn’t. “I— I made a promise.” Was all she said, willing herself not to move any closer.

"To who?" Tay whispered, looking into Vera's amazingly bright green eyes.

Vera’s cheeks were pink as she stared at Tay, already lost in his deep, brown eyes. “I can’t say.”, she whispered back, helpless.

Tay smiled, "It's okay." and then he kissed her.

A million fractured emotions flowed through Vera as Tay pressed his lips to hers, and her eyes widened before fluttering closed. Her own body was spinning out of her control, her one hand buried in his hair. She couldn’t stop herself.

Kissing Vera felt right. Not like his eighth grade bash where Brittany Jackson went in for a kiss. Not like ninth grade when Cath Austin kissed him under the spotlight of Spring Formal. It was sweet and soft and it felt like they were falling in love all over again.

Vera’s hands were tucked underneath her, resting on Tay’s chest as something sweet and warm filled her. No Vera what are you doing?!?!?!, her brain screamed at her. She pulled away gently, taking a deep breath. “Tay..”, she whispered, voice betraying the internal conflict in her.

"Vera?" Tay went down from his tippy-toes.

Tears sprang to her eyes. “I— I don’t know what to do— I—“

Tay wiped Vera's tears, "Don't cry. We can work through this together."

Vera leaned into his touch, eyes glazed with desperate tears. “It’ll ruin everything for you, Tay, I can’t just—“ She took a deep breath, wanting him so much it hurt. “Someone saw what happened at the arcade.”, she whispered. This was all her fault.

"It-it's not that important?" Tay said, mostly to himself.

Vera shook her head, forcing herself to take a step backwards. “If I don’t stay away from you, they’ll go to the police. That was the promise. It would go on your record, Tay, your whole future would be ruined.” She choked.

"What kind of miserable future would I have if it didn't have you in it?" Tay smiled at Vera, "Now let's go catch up, Felix and Kamè are probably waiting."

“But—“ Vera gave up, warmth rushing through her. They quickly caught up to Felix and Kamè, Vera blushing at the looks on their faces.

Kamè grinned and patted Tay's shoulder while Felix attempted a wink.

Vera blushed furiously, averting her eyes.

Felix smiled, "I remember my first kiss with Marya. It was sweet and soft and felt like it was just us in the world."
Kamè flicked the back of Felix's head, "C'mon dude, it's Tay's turn to tell us all about it." he turned towards Vera, "Unless you want to tell us about it too."

Vera’s whole face went red Oh god they’re going to tell Bridge about this I’ve ruined everything what do I do?!?! She swallowed. “Um… it— I—he—-it was nice.”, she somehow managed to stammer our, finishing lamely.

Kamè smirked, "Nice, huh?" from behind him, Tay blushed furiously.

More than nice… Vera pushed the thought away. “Are— Aren’t we here to eat?”

Kamè grinned, "Exactamundo, girl! Let's book!"

Vera felt a rush of relief at this, paired with a sinking guilt in her stomach. You ruined everything, Vera. You have to make it up to him. If Bridge reports the arcade scene, take all the blame. “I can’t stay for too long, though, my sister needs me to call her.” At least a this was not all untrue, she usually called her sister a few times a week.

I gtg sorry!)

Kamè smiled, "S'all okay, dudette."
