Don't You Ever Let Me Fall

Chapter 17

Immediately, I pushed Kellin away from me. He held his breath as I processed the events that just took place. He just kissed me. This isn't the first time but he did it. Did I kiss back? I'm too flustered to remember.

"I'm so sorry, it's just over the amount of time I've learned about you and talked to you, I've actually started to like you." Kellin explains softly. He sounded frightened like I was going to hurt him.

"I'm flattered and all but this can't happen ever again." I murmur quietly. Kellin nods in agreement and I take one look at him before standing up and leaving in a hurry. My mind cleared as soon as I got to Jenna's.

She was outside on her porch drinking tea from a jar. I smiled and she waved at me. Once I sat down she kissed my lips gently and smiled at me. "So, turns out, Marina is coming to Australia!!" She giggles before squealing.

"What about Tay?" I question quietly. "Tay has agreed! She thinks it'll be great for her!" Jenna squeals loudly. I nod simply and look to the floor. This was all too much. Her kid is joining us in Australia?

I can't look after a kid. Where will I work? I'll have to quit my job. There are so many things I'm worried about.

I spent the night at Jenna's and when I woke up the next morning she greeted me with a kiss and a cup of coffee. I felt sick. Australia. She's acting like I already agreed to go. I'm literally changing my entire life for her.

What if its a bad idea?

*Months Later*

To homosexuals, pride is literally gay Christmas. You can tell by the look on their faces and the light in their eyes. The morning of pride Jenna was ecstatic. She spent all night tie dyeing shirts for us to wear.

A week ago, she dragged me with her to get rainbow steaks professionally dyed into our hair. And the morning of, Jenna woke up at 7am to start getting ready where I woke up later when she finally got fed up.

It had been a great couple months. Jenna let me stay with her which I thought was weird. Jenna liked moving slow yet I'm already living with her and she wants me to move somewhere far away with her and her child.

I feel like everything is going by so fast and soon enough Jenna and I will be 99 with a thousand kids. I'm afraid of every move she makes. She always rushes into I love yous and such. Hell, her divorce was caused by them rushing into marriage.

At around noon, Jenna and I walked down town for pride. It was pretty fun and I had a blast. It was nighttime and Jenna and I walked around hand in hand. We watched the fireworks people had shot off and as one blasted off I watched in awe.

"Babe, did you see that?" I grin as I turn to face my girlfriend. My face falls seeing her down on one knee with a small black box opened to reveal and diamond engagement ring. "Will you?" She whispers with a small smile.

After a few moments, I recollected myself and covered my face. Slowly, I looked up and into her beautiful lit up eyes. It felt like it had been forever when only it's been a few seconds or minutes.

Why would she do this? And in public? It's only been a couple months.

"No." I whisper under my breath. Jenna's face falls and I see her entire world crashing down. "What?" She questions shakily, standing up. "I'm sorry I can't." I breathe out, tears welling up in my eyes.

"Why?" Now that was the question I was avoiding. "This is all moving too fast Jenna. One week we're acting innocent the next we're saying I love you. And now you're asking me to marry you and commit forever only three months later? I don't want to move to Australia with Marina. It's all too much and I....i-"

oh my god.

I like Kellin.
