Strawberry Angel

chapter 12

IMARA'S POV:
Some music for the spicy scene⬆️

"You still up for our target date?" I say checking the clock on the wall.

"I mean the target down town is open 24 hours"

"Sure... your not mad at me?" He says suspiciously

"For..." I'm confused. Am I supposed to be mad at something?

"You know.. delaying our date."

"Oh. I'm no mad about that, I understand. Sometimes my dad has to cancel plans with my mother for work."

Surprisingly my mom and dad are actually really lovey dovey witch each other. They're always together at the hip when he's not working. Sometimes I even see my mom blush a little.

"Imara, I'm sorry. Your super important I just had to finish up some business first."

"I understand now let's go. I don't want to waste any time. I do have to leave back to Chicago in 3 days"

Frizzles. I have to leave soon. What are we gonna do? Will he forget about me? Are we never gonna see each other again? He's probably gonna find a new girl... one that can be with him all the time. Shoot, I want to be the one with him.

"Your right" he says while keeping his face straight.

Does he not care? Is this all a game to him? Once I leave he plans on breaking up with me isn't he? I guess I'll make the most of my time with him. Good thing I brought my special tool.

"Ok we're taking your car right?" I say

"Yeah. Jeep or Mercedes?" He says walking towards a door opening up to a garage filled with expensive cars. Holy shoot he has a lot. He has every car in every color!

"Oh my lanta! Are these all yours?" I say touching the yellow Lamborghini like it's a dog.

He chuckles and tells me yes.

"Um..Elijah?"

"What's up?"

"Do you mind if I start filming little clips of our dates? If you don't want me to that's fine."

"Sure. Do what you want, I don't mind"

"Thank you, I'm gonna start it now."

"Ok..? What do you have to do? You want to me to pose?" He smiles and leans against the car posing

I burst out laughing. I mean he's so cute it's funny.

"What?" He says sassily

"If you want to you can but I just want to film little things of our time together"

"So I made my myself look like a dumbass?" He rolls his eyes and walks over to a drawer filled with keys

"The Jeep right?"

"Yup" I say.

"Hop in."

I get in the car and Elijah puts some music on. It's not an uncomfortable silence but a calming one. While he drives I put the camera on the dashboard and click play.

"Elijah have you ever thought about becoming a vlogger? I mean you have the looks for it? What else do you need?"

This time he laughs a long deep laugh like the other ones were mere showcases of this one.

"No Imara I haven't thought about ever doing it but I'll keep in mind that you think I'm very handsome."

I flush red and punch him lightly in the arm. But quickly realize we could have died if he steered off the lane.
