this is their little walk carrying on from the last chapter. :)

we walked across the pier swinging our arms as we held hands. my heart was beating rapidly but i tried to act normal. he was wearing a grey jumper with empires on and baggy blue jeans.

i looked down at the flowers still in his hand and he followed my gaze.

"oh oh sorry." he said almost dropping them as he went to pass them to me. "these are for you.." he said holding them out in both hands. they were beautiful red roses with velvety petals  wrapped up in white tissue paper with a cream string tying them together at the bottom. i took them great-fully smiling up at his warm face. he smiled back and kissed me on the forehead.

we talked for hours he told me about the empires and how it had been his dream to be a bat boy his whole life. and about annoying sisters and he told me all about betsy and how she was always getting herself into trouble with his mum and with everyone around her.

"she's graduating soon though." he said nodding his head. "so things should get better." i nodded along. and squeezed his hand. he pulled me in closer to him our noses touching and he kissed me, more passionately  than before, holding my waist while his tongue slipped into my mouth. i was surprised but carried on. after a long while. we pulled apart and he smiled nervously wrapping his arm around me bringing me into a hug. i shivered realised it hadn't been a good idea to wear just a top and no jumper to this outing. he noticed my shivering and looked down concerned.

"are you cold?" he asked arms moving from round my neck to back at my hands.

"no i- i'm fine." i said rubbing my freezing arms. i looked down and he moved to meet my eye-line.

"you look freezing... cute, but freezing." i smiled and put my hands in my jean pockets.

then he took his jumper off over his head and placed it in my hands. i watched him in awe but he noticed me staring and laughed. i quickly looked down embarrassed. and then back at the jumper now in my hands.

"put it on," he said placing it over my head. "it will keep you warm." i smiled as the smell of him overpowered me. i tried not to show how much i was enjoying this and kept my face blank. but he noticed.

"you okay." he said "we can go back now if you want, it is pretty dark."

"no no." i said quickly after pulling the jumper over my head. "lets stay, if you're allowed."

"i'm not really but its fine." he said firmly before leading me to walk alongside him.

we had been walking and talking for a while and then we walked down to the beach the sea quietly moving in and out. i looked out at the sea and saw the moons reflection glinting on it. he took my hand and lead me down under the pier where we lay silently listing to the waves lapping up to the beach.

i woke up my head laying on of Pete's chest i could hear his heart beating, slowly and steadily. i jolted my head up.

"Pete, Pete." i said gently shaking him awake. his eyes shifted but didn't open. "PETE!" i said more loudly now the stress clear in my voice. his eyes flinched and he raised his head slowly not realising where we were. he rubbed his eyes and i watched as realisation overcame him. suddenly he jolted up grabbing my arm.

"we need to get home." he said dragging me up to the stairs leading back to the pier. we ran together as fast as we could our shoes in our hands. my feet hurt like hell but all i could think about was what my mum would say when i got back. how much trouble i would get in for this.

Pete and i parted without managing to say goodbye and i ran to my house climbed up the tree and jumped through the open window, into my room. i laughed a little realising how my parkour had improved from before. i ripped off my clothes and grabbed my pyjamas from my bed pulling them on and finally scrambled to get into bed. and placed my flowers on my bedside table. not realising i still had the jumper on that Pete gave me.

soon enough my mum walked into the room. "morning," she said pulling the sheets off from over my head. she looked down at my floor. "i told you to start putting your clothes in the wash!" she said picking them up. i bit my lip as sand poured out from them. she looked from the clothes to me, confused. "why is there sand on your trousers?" she said holding them at arms length. she then picked up my top seeing the mud coated over the back. she looked at me suspiciously. scanning over the clothes, almost like she was looking for a clue. i held my tongue hoping she wouldn't ask anymore questions.

"you can tell me about this later." she said pointing her finger at me disapprovingly. and she walked out the room. i sighed leaning my back on the back rest. my heart racing. she also hadn't noticed i was wearing his jumper. or the flowers beside my bed.

my head moved towards a sound coming from my window. i ignored it trying to focus on what had just happened. but i heard it again and this time i saw the pebble hit the window. i slowly walked towards it not sure what to do. and saw someone standing there nervously. he had dark brown hair slightly longer at the front covering part of his face.and was wearing a grey top with a shirt over the top. and a dimple in his chin.

"hey, i'm mike," he said i looked down at him blankly. that name had no recollection to me.

"i'm Pete's friend." he said after a long pause. "ohhh" i said nodding "is Pete okay?"

"yeah he's fine, he wanted me to tell you that he had and great time and his mom doesn't know.. oh and he-" but he was cut off by my mum shouting up the stairs.

"Y/N! BREAKFAST TIME!!" i looked back at mike "sorry mike i have to go, but tell Pete my mum doesn't know either." i smiled at him and ran downstairs to my mum. i heard mike shout something but i couldn't hear what he said. i shrugged my shoulders and carried on. but when i walked into the kitchen my mum frowned.

"where did you get that jumper from?" she said bringing the orange juice from the fridge. i looked down at it fear coming over me. "and what was with all that sand. the beach is a mile away!" i sat down trying to act calm and looked up at my mother who was giving me a stare.

"whats going on y/n?"
