Its been two weeks, and I keep getting these random gifts from this mysterious person. To be completely honest I'm a little freaked out by now. I pulled myself out of my thoughts when I arrived at my front door.
"Mom! Dad! I'm home!" I shouted and waited for a response. As I waited I slid my coat down my arms, hung it up and walked to my kitchen.
"Mom?" I called again. On the corner of my counter my eyes noticed what looked to be a letter,
Dear Ellie,
Unfortunetly you may be on your own tonight but your father and I's job had offerd us a business trip to London. Of course we wanted to take you with us but we didnt want to pull you from your friends and school so instead we got you a babysiter. We understand that your 17 but we wanted you to be safe.
As soon as I finished the letter the door bell rang.
"Hello love, um, does Elizabeth Jones live here?" A man asked as soon as my door opened.
"Um, yeah. Thats me." I spoke unsure of what to do.
"Oh great! I'm Niall, your babysitter." Wonderful. Just wonderful. 17 years old and I have a babysitter. I forced a smile upon my face before responding.
"Awesome, please come in. Wouldn't want you to freeze out here." I tried so hard to sound sincere. I opened my door wider so he can step in. Just as I closed my door, he shimmed his coat off his body and removed his shoes.
"So, now that I'm here, what shall we do?" I pondered over his question.
"Well I'll be in the kitchen making dinner, I'm not sure what you'll do though." I spoke and turned on my heel heading to the kitchen.
"I think I'll join you. That way your not lonely." He said in his thick irish accent.
"So, what do you want for dinner?" I asked him.
"Um, I dont know surprise me."
"Okay pizza it is then." I spoke and pulled out my phone from my back pocket when I heard him chuckle.
"whatcha laughing at?"
"Nothing, I just- nevermind." He said quite fast, his cheeks a bit pinker than usual.
"Okay, do you like meat lovers pizza?" I laughed.
"Yeah."
"Good I was gonna order it whether you liked it or not." I sassed. I walked out of the kitchen and into the living room ordering the pizza.
Once I finished ordering I turned to find Niall stairing at me. I awkwardly stood there and staired at the floor. I felt my phone vibarate in my hand and my moms face flashed on the screen.
"Hey mom!" I spoke happily.
"Hi darling, is your babysitter there?"
"Yes he is."
"Sweet. Can I speak to him real quick?"
"Yes of course, Niall my mom wants to talk to you." I said and tossed my phone to him, hoping he can catch good.
"Hello - Yes this is - Yes ma'am - Okay - No parties - No being a teenager - No, how long are you gonna be gone again?" He questioned. Thats what caught my attention.
