Bellamy knows heâs screwed the moment his eyes meet yours when you walk into the room.
The way your hair moves perfectly with the rhythm of your feet walking, the way your hips sway, only waiting for his hands to fit there.
He laughs at himself sometimes because heâs ridiculous. Heâs like a high school boy. His stomach feels weird, like butterflies dancing. He feels high everytime he sees you, or hears your laugh like itâs the only thing that makes him forget where he stands in this world. Or whatâs left of it.
The room suddenly stops spinning. Instead itâs quiet, it doesnât move, itâs still. Itâs still because heâs only seeing you. He sees your lips move, heâs almost sure he can feel the beats of your laugh growing from the floor onto his feet, to his heart. Like yours is his.
Frankly, he misses it. He can still hear it, he can still see you, but youâve been distant and that kills him.
Your eyes meet his again, in avoidance. Itâs like you wish he hadnât caught you.
A small smirk dances on his lips when you look away. Maybe heâs not crazy. Maybe youâre avoiding him because perhaps you feel the tension, and you donât want to feel it.
Maybe youâre scared.
God knows he is.
Heâs terrified.
Bellamy doesnât do terrified. He doesnât do scared. But he also doesnât do girlfriends.
He does one night stands.
Threesomes.
He fantasizes and acts on it when itâs right.
This feels right.
And yet he still doesnât act on it.
To him? Heâs a damn coward.
To you? Every second away from him eats at you. It makes you feel less alive. To you, stolen glances across the room arenât enough.
You need him.
Maybe youâre a coward too.
But not tonight.
Tonight, when you look at him for the thousandth time, you see him sipping on his drink like heâs been waiting for you to make your way to him the whole night. His smirk is still there, small, like itâs only for you to notice.
The music isnât loud. Itâs right where it needs to be. The sound pumps still in your veins. The moonshine running there like itâs second nature. Your heart beats fast, but your legs move even faster.
Thereâs no dress. Thereâs no sexy attire, thereâs just you.
And him waiting by the bar.
Bellamy feels it all of a sudden. He starts to sweat, his heart beats even faster than yours- but he doesnât let that stop him. Instead he takes another sip to give him some more confidence , and meets you halfway across the room.
You donât speak for a minute. Itâs pure tension, just starring at each other wondering whoâs going to be the first one to talk, to kiss, to dare making a move.
Then, as if the gods are laughing at you, the musicâs not so fast anymore. Itâs slow.
People around you gather with their lovers to dance.
Neither of you talk. Instead, Bellamy offers you his hand as to ask you to dance because frankly, heâs scared that if he talks, heâll break and confess his love right then and there.
A small smile sits on your lips, the butterflies in your stomach are constant, like itâs never going to stop. Like theyâll just stay there comfortably forever.
Itâs quick. Your hands around his neck, touching his hair. His hands locking perfectly around your waist, like pieces of a puzzle fitting into eternity.
âIâm sorry.â Youâre the first one to speak. He wants to avoid your gaze, but he canât- so he answers, hoping his voice doesnât betray him.
âFor what?â He clears his throat.
âIâve been avoiding you.â Bellamyâs eyes almost go wide. Maybe because he knows what this is leading to.
You focus on him, trying to forget about the possibility of all of this going wrong.
You just canât hold it in anymore.
It has to come out- even if you make a fool out of yourself.
âWeâre not stupid people, right?â You ask, biting your lip.
Bellamy doesnât answer, but he tilts his head, confused.
âI mean, are we? I just- I wanna know that Iâm not crazy, bell.â
He understands immediately what youâre saying.
He swallows, his throat is dry. He was scared a second ago, but now? He knows exactly whatâs about to happen.
His heart skips a beat, and his smile grows.
âYouâre not crazy.â He doesnât need to say anything else, you let out a breath of relief.
âThank god.â You whisper under your breath, your head going to rest on his chest.
When you look back up, Bellamy seems stuck. Heâs still smiling, but you can tell heâs thinking hard.
âWhatâs on your mind?â Your right hand moves to his cheek as he leans into it.
âDo you really wanna do this?â He asks.
Both of you know you donât have to specify. This conversation is only for you to understand.
And you do.
You understand every word.
You donât think.
Thinking is overrated.
Instead, you pull Bellamy towards you, and crash your lips onto his. Your feet almost lifted off the ground.
Itâs slow at first, because he doesnât know whatâs happening.
Heâs been dreaming of that for ages.
Your lips move in perfect synch, his hands sink into your hips. They bruise, they ink into it.
The pace fastens before you remember thereâs people all around. Your friends are standing not far, most certainly watching the whole thing only wishing they had pop corn.
You pull away, your feet going back on the floor to ground you.
Your breaths are uneven.
âHowâs that for an answer?â You let out a small giggly breath.
Bellamy laughs wholeheartedly.
âItâs pretty good.â He shrugs his shoulders nonchalantly.
All while mocking him, you slap his torso as he winces.
âWhat? You need a second round?â You ask jokingly.
âI might.â Bellamyâs smile is still wide, and instead of waiting again, he pulls you in first this time.
Itâs hungry, like heâs been starving for years even though he just kissed you a minute ago.
His fingernails dig deep, your hands tangle in his hair.
You donât know whatâll happen after this.
But as you kiss in the middle of a crowded room feeling like itâs just you two against the world, you donât really care.
You only care about him.
And thatâs enough for now.
