♥Who wants to be perfect?♥ (Summer romance , semi-lit)

[Qiokkabee]

Xanther had a frown on his face as he watched Peyton cry innocently in a corner of her room. He felt so downhearted. He didnt like to watch people cry and when he did, he felt like crying too. He would feel a deep cut in his heart, as if he had something he really missed too, even though he really did. His sister. Xanther didnt want to disturb her but still came in. He stuck his arm out to place on his shoulder but pulled his arm back, hesitantly, thinking he would make her even more upset. He tried again, this time his hand landing softly on her shoulders. He sat down beside her and whispered,"It's okay. Don't cry. Please don't cry...." Xanther rubbed his hand on her back and did something he hasn't done in five years. He leane din and hugged Peyton tightly, hoping that she would stop crying.

Peyton heard Xanther walk into the room but didnt bother looking up. She heard his steps getting closer and closer until he stopped and put a hand on Peytons shoulder. Her breathing stopped in her chest.. His touch made it feel like and electric shock went up her spin. And then something truely shocking had happened. he had hugged her. Even though Peyton knew Xanther for only a couple of hours,she knew he wasnt a very 'touchy-touchy' person. So when he hugged her her heart had stopped. slowly a smile came across her face and she shifted into a position to hug him back.

Xanther was shocked as Peyton positioned herself to hug Xanther back. After she hugged him, Xanther brough his arms up, looking down at Peyton hysterically. "I will be by your side until you remain non-hysterical," he whispered, a small smile on his face. He hugged her tightly, putting his chin on her head.

Peyton smiled slightly back and nodded, burring her face in his chest.His already soaked shirt, getting re-soaked with Peytons tears. She bit her bottom lip to stop herself from crying more. Peyton calmly took deep, her tears slowly going away. "Thanks Xanther..it means the world to me." she said very quietly.

[Qiokkabee]

Xanther smiled at Peyton but said nothing. He didn't want to loose his voice next. He already was sick and he already had a dry, and raspy voice. Why have more bad things that incapacitate you? Xanther loosened his hug and slowly pulled away, giving a nervous look at Peyton. "That was my very first hug since five years ago by my sister," Xanther whispered silently, looking away.

{-Peyton
Peyton also moved back slightly, while wiping some tears that were still on her face. She sighed while watching him. His body language said something was bothering him, but Peyton couldnt tell what.Peyton looked at him with blood-shot, stained with tears eyes. 'You-your sister?...Where is she now?" she asked him, not really thinking before speaking.

[Qiokkabee]

Xanther's arms started twitching after Peyton asked where his sister was. He felt like crying but he couldn't cry now, not in front of Peyton. Tears gathered in his eyes, making his vision blurry. Xanther's arms trembled, becoming weak and slowly slipping off of Peyton...

{-Peyton
Peyton immediatly wanted to take back what she had just said. Something told her that his sister was probably in the same place as her Dad. "Oh no.." she wispered quietly "Xanther i-i...i didnt know." she said pulling him close back into another hug. She saw the tears in his eyes, "Xanther its okay to cry you know.. i dont care. Like i said before im not like the other girls.. you can let it out.." she said quietly craddling Xanther in her arms.

[Qiokkabee]

Xanther mumbles quietly, his eyes becoming very watery. He didn't want to let it put even though Peyton didn't mind but the years started a river down his cheeks, flowing down as he he brought his head down, gasping for air and finally crying. He was covering his face with his hands, gasping with breath and taking deep breaths many times, trying to stop himself but he couldn't, he just couldn't. His eyes turned a deep red in his hands. The tears kept flooding down, naming his cheeks and hands all wet. Xanther felt so lonely and bad. He has never cried so much except of when his sister died. This was the only time he had cried that mch besides the time he cried for his sister. He felt so miserable, so weak, that small thing again lock in a grey world, in the middle of no where...

{-Peyton
Peyton frowned seeing him like this. "Shhh, Shh, its okay. Peytons gotcha.." she said in a motherly tone of voice. Lately Peyton had felt different with Xanther, Like she could be herself and... she actually kind of L-like him? Peyton shook her head, now was not the time to be thinking about her mushy feelings.Peyton turned her attention back to Xanther. She bit her lips to keep from re-crying. Seeing him cry made Peyton want to cry more. But she had to stay strong for Xanther. She closed her eyes and held Xanther close.
