Leave (L.H fanfic>)

Two.

The sun is setting and Ben just left with Emily. I'm wrapped in a fuzzy blanket from the closet in the apartment. It's freezing in this apartment and I can't understand why.

Standing from the couch I walk over to the window. It's placed in the corner of the living room, odd I know. The apartment is in a cute part of New Orleans, downtown. Looking out the window I watch as people walk by. Smiling when they saw the art work on the corner. My eyes furrow together when I notice a boy sitting on the edge of the side walk. He just sits there staring at nothing his face is blank. It's dark now and the boy still sits on the curb. He's wearing all black, that's all I can really tell from here. Sighing I back away from the window deciding on heading to bed. Ben's not back yet, but I don't expect him back till tomorrow. He was good with the ladies. Umm.. that sounded weird, let me rephrase that. He uh, sleeps around. Not Emily though, ever since she entered his life he has been controlled. I think this may end up with something very crazy. Crazy meaning Ben falling in love. God, I can't imagine what I would have to go through. Him coming home every night telling me stories of her. I'm not jealous, I don't think I could ever like Ben more than a best friend. But, I'm nervous that if he falls in love with her he'll move out and away from me... He's really the only friend I have..
Moving on, I don't plan on staying in this city my whole life. Once I meet a guy I plan to move to Washington. My dad took me there once, it was beautiful. Pulling the blanket closer to me I walk into my room. Slipping into bed I turn on the tv. Flipping through the channels the only interesting thing on is Friends. I have watched all of these episodes millions of times. Sighing I lay back in bed closing my eyes. I need to go to bed tomorrow Ben is taking me on a vampire tour with him and Emily. He wants us to get to know each other. Sitting back up I turn the tv off laying back down and going to sleep.

The sound of my door opening makes me roll over rubbing my eyes. Grabbing onto my pillow I slowly sit up. Ben stands at the door a smirk on his face. In his hands is a bag.

"Wake up. I bought you beignets." he says tossing the bag to the end of the bed.

"Thanks." I attempt to smile rubbing my eyes. Tuning to look at myself in the mirror I groan at the image. My hair is a mess and I have dried drool on my cheek,gross.

Wiggling down to the end of the bed I grab the bag of French donuts. Opening it I begin to smile.

"So how was the.. date?" I ask shoving the donut in my mouth in between words.

"It went well." He said a smirk on his face, groaning I rolled my eyes

"Your sick." I smiled pulling out another donut from the paper bag.

"Whatever, but if your going to go with us on the Vampire tour tonight you might want to get up." He said turning and heading for the door.

What time is it? I whispered to myself looking at my alarm. My eyes widening at the clock. Two o'clock gosh, I didn't know I was that tired. Getting up I quickly run to the bathroom. Turning the shower on I step in sighing as the hot water splashes me. Standing in the shower I wash myself before stepping out. Wrapping the towel around my body I rush to my room. Changing into a pair of skinny jeans and a Mtv t-shirt. The outfit was cute. Slipping on my converse to go with it. Turning my curler on I began to do my make up. Which wasn't a lot, only blush,mascara,lip stick,and a little concealer. Curling my hair I smiled at myself in the mirror, I looked okay for once. Ben banged on the bathroom door. Standing up I open the door.

"God! What took you so long? It's already 5:30!" He groaned looking the opposite way.

"Sorry." I shrugged as he turned to look at me.

"Oh, now I see why, you were making yourself look like a Barbie doll." He laughs. My smile fads turning into a frown.

"What?" I asked, why would he say that?

"Well when you do all this.." He motions to my outfit. Glaring at Ben I turn walking towards my room again.

"Sorry if I look like a Barbie doll." I said angrily walking back out of my room. He just rolled his eyes walking towards the door.

"We're meeting Emily at the place." Ben said as we jumped in his car.

"Great." I said quietly looking out the window.
