Lila sat next to Ellie, while Kieran took a seat in a chair on the adjacent side of the couches.

He changed out of his dress shirt and pants and into skinny ripped black jeans, a black hoodie, and a black jean jacket over top. He wore white shoes.

While the others talked, i just sat on the couch. I talked a lot today, and talking about my past took a lot out of me.

Plus i didn't have much to say.

I either sat there listening and nodding along to Alias' stories, or played on my phone.

Kieran must have took notice because he texted me: come with me

I looked up from my phone, to look at him, and there was a small smirk tugging at his lips.

When we both stood up, Alias stopped talking and asked us what was going on.

"I'm showing her around." Said Kieran, and then i followed him around the house.

After he showed me the rest of the rooms downstairs, we headed upstairs.

He showed me to a room that had plain bedding and walls. A guest room I presumed.

There were a few paintings on the walls, but it was like a hotel room. No one lived in it so there was really no reason to decorate.

I turned around and looked at him.

"What are we doing in here?"

He looked at me, and then walked over to the bed, sitting, well more like laying on the left side.

"You seemed tired and bored."

"So you brought me to a room to sleep?"

"Or talk. Whichever one you want to do. He looked over to his side, the empty spot on the bed. I looked at it too, and then walked over towards it.

I sat on the right side of the bed, my back resting on the head board.

It was silent, no one talked for a few minutes, but then Kieran spoke up. Taking in a breath of air before.

"I just wanted to let you know, that i'm not leaving over any minor inconveniences, i don't want you to be afraid of me leaving, because i'm not going anywhere."

What is this boy talking about??

That is what i first thought when he said this, but when I looked over to him, he was already looking at me.

And those eyes, they were staring into mine, not leaving, I was trapped.

I couldn't say anything, no ones ever gotten this close to me in years.

"I mean it. I'm not leaving."

I waited a few seconds. I got over the first initial shock, and finally talked.

"Thank you." I wasn't smiling, but i didn't have a mean face, it was sincere, i was content with what was going on.

He nodded his head, while still keeping his eyes on me. He had a small smile on his lips.

His eyes flashed down to my lips for a quick second, but as quick as they were there, they were gone.

"Can i ask you something?"

I nodded my head yes, still keeping my eyes on his.

"Do you like me?"
