love runs out

pov cleo

I walk through the grocery and look for soemthing that's easy to make. It's been a while since I heard from Martijn, he's away busy doing his job and he hasn't text me. Even though I text him how he is. But he didn't answer, so I don't expect a answer soon.

I get some fruit to eat as a snack, Ava is working tonight so I need to cook for both of us, our friendship is better than ever since our fight about Martin. But she accept the fact I'm friends with him. Even thought she's still scared he will do something to me, I don't think that it will happen.

I bump onto someone and I immediately hear someone says sorry. "Im so sorry, I didn't saw you," he says and I look up. A good looking boy smiles and his green eyes are the one who catch my eyes the most. "Hai, im Niels," he says and he shakes my hand quietly. "Hai, im Cleo," I smile. He's one of the best smiles i ever seen. "Busy shopping?" He asks being interested. "Groceries, really simple. I gotta cook thought so," I explain and he nod.

"Me too. I didn't know there were such pretty girls around this time," he says and I chuckle of his comment. "I didn't know either," I smile and he chuckle too."what do you need?" He asks back to business. "That sauce, on the tallest plan," I explain. He easily get the sauce I asked for and give me the sauce. "Thank you," I thanked him for it. "No thanks," he smiles and I decide to walk further. I had to finish up buying groceries and I feel a hand on my right hand. "Can i do something for you?" I ask him. "Well. Exchange number and maybe catch up later this month," he proposed. But what if he's gonna use my number to someone else, or that he's only gonna use me for getting me in his bed?

But I can give him a change right, I mean, not every dude is the same as Mick was. So maybe he's one of the few guys who just like me because I'm being myself. "Yea," I agreed finally and in his eyes the feeling of relieving left his soul. We quickly exchange numbers and I wave goodbye to him.

I come back in the apartment and see Ava sitting on the couch. "Hey, how are you?" I ask her. She quickly turns around, like she's was afraid of something. "I'm alright," she says and it sounds so vulnerable. I walk over to her and look at her. "What happened?" I ask her. "My boss is a dick." She mutters and wipes her tears away. I wait for her to continue her story. "He said, I had potential to get higher up some positions at my work. So I asked him how I would get the promotion. He said on a dirty way 'have sex with me and you will get a promotion'," she tells me. "Omg, that's so disgusting. My gos," I said and she nods. "It's unbelievable, I only want to work and design. But that guy is only interested to see me naked," she muttered softly. "He's a dick. All men are expect you're boyfriend," I say and she smiles.

"Sadly he isn't here," she mutters. "But you can call him and tell him about it. It's for the best and he can help you whatever you feel shit about it, and please leave that company. Get away there, better run away sis," I say and she smiles. "Watch a movie, I'll cook and than we'll relax," I smiled. She smiles and put the tv on. "Which movie?" She asks me. "The outer banks, i haven't watch season 2 yet," I say. "Are you kidding me?" She asks me immediately like I'm stupid bitch.

I come quick back with some food, it's good. I tasted already to make sure it taste good and i that I cooked good. "Omg girl... you can cook," she smiles and scream little bit excited. "So it is good?" I ask her and she nods. She clicks on Netflix on Outer Banks season 2 to watch. "John b, be my fictional boyfriend," Ava randomly said out nowhere. "No no, for me it's jj, he looks hot," I smiles and she gives me a little push on the couch more.

"But you're work was doing great?" She asks me. "Yeah, I met a boy at the grocery store. He's called Niels and very good looking," I answer, I smile little and Ava push me further. "Damn, a new boyfriend is coming," she smiles and I roll with my eyes. "We just exchanged numbers and being friends," I tell her. "Whatever, friends or not, there's a boyfriend coming," she says. "What do you mean?" I ask her confused. "First Martijn, now Niels, who's the next boy. There will be a moment coming that both boys will confess that they've feelings for you. Then there will be a big fight because there are two boys who like you. You bring yourself in a dangerous and shit position," she tells me. "But I just met Niels and Martijn is just a friend. There's nothing going on between us," I say and she nod. Her gaze is focused on the serie and I do too.

I get an notification from someone and I immediately grab quick my phone, Ava is on the toilet. I didn't expect the response.
