- Lola's POV -

I can't believe this is happening.
Is this happening?
I can't believe it.

I was on a pretty beach with Joseph. WITH JOSEPH!!!!

I was walking slightly in front of him as he was following me to a nice spot where we could sit and watch the waves crashing on to the shore.

As soon as we got there he took a head start and climbed up the rock, but I was struggling to get up. I'm a really small person, okay?!

"Take my hand" He shouted from the top while reaching over the edge for me. I looked up and grabbed on to his hand, he pulled me up quickly.

"Thanks" I said with a smile, he nodded and smiled back. The view from the huge rocks was amazing, we could see the whole beach!

We walked across the rocks for a few minutes until we found a nice place to sit down and relax, the wind couldn't get us from the spot we sat at. There was an awkward silence as I was memorised by the water. I really do love the beach.

"Do you have any music on your phone?" He asked while looking over at me. I nodded and pulled my phone out from my back pocket and began to scroll through my music.

I decided to take it back to the old songs of Fall Out Boy and play Sugar We're Going Down, I put it on full volume and set my phone beside me.

Joseph gasped and looked over at me with a huge smile on his face.

"This is my favourite song of all time!!" He shouted in excitement, wow. I am so good.

"Really!? I love Fall Out Boy!" I explained with a grin stuck on my face. We began to talk about music and which genres we like. Turns out we sort of have a lot in common.

"You're really cool Lola.." Joseph said while I looked for more songs to play. I giggled slightly and looked up at him.

"You are very cool too Joseph" I said with a smile. He was smiling back at me for a really long time, I loved it. There was something about him that just drew me in. Maybe he is magic or something?

We began to talk about our families and how we were raised. I told him about my strict parents and how I'm forced to go to church every week when I don't even know if I am a Christian or not..

And he told me about his parents splitting up when he was younger and how much it had an affect on him. He said how close he is to his family and how much he cares about them, he is really strong. I can't really find any emotion in him and that's really weird, maybe he is a robot?

"Oh yeah and.. About Saturday night" Joseph mumbled nervously. I looked up at him with confusion.

"How are you and Stephanie?" I asked anxiously. What if they're trying to sort things out?

"She hates me. But it's fine.."

"How is that fine? I'm sure you were together for ages" I said with a frown. He sighed loudly.

"She just wanted me for sex, which is kind of weird" He admitted while staring down at the water. Wow.

Why would he tell me that? I would never tell anyone that except for Lilah, but that's because I trust her with everything.

Oh my god, he trusts me.
