i put my phone down and brush my teeth and wash my face before going down and trying to find myself around.
"miss southgate? can i help you?" i hear a voice say
i turn around and see a man in a very smart suit, "oh hi yes actually, where do i get some food?" i ask
"ah now go straight down and second door on the left." he says
"thank you so much." i say
"see you around." he says before we both walk off in different directions
i get to the canteen and it was just like st georges, a buffet.
"y/n!" i hear someone shout
i turn around to see phil sat at a table by himself, "i got your favorite." he adds
i didn't know what to do. i was confusing myself.
"you don't have to talk to me, just come and eat." he says noticing i'm not getting any closer
i give in, i was hungry. i walk over to the table he was sat at and sit opposite him pulling the plate of jam toast closer towards me.
"thanks." i say looking down
"no problem." phil replies, "excited for today?"
"i thought you said we weren't gonna talk." i say
"look." he says putting his spoon for his cereal down
he grabs my hand that i wasn't using to eat my toast and holds it.
"i'm really sorry for what you saw. but you have to know that you're the only one i'd pick" he says
"but everything you're saying isn't adding up, i get it, you'd pick me, but then why text her?" i ask
"you wanna know the truth? i was scared." he says
"of what?" i ask
"her." phil replies
"why?" i ask
"she used to be really controlling and..." he starts to say
"and what?"i ask
"she'd hit me." he says
"what why?" i ask
"just if i didn't do what she was saying." he says
"why didn't you tell me this?" i ask
"i don't like talking about myself to you." he says
"you let me go on about me to you." i say
"yeah that's because i want to hear about you, you probably don't wanna listen to my problems." he says
"of course i do." i say, "that's what i'm here for."
"now are we going to be okay?" i ask
"if you forgive me." he says
"i do, cause now i know why you did it." i say
"thank you." he says
"you don't need to thank me." i reply
"yes i do." he says, "for doing this." he adds leaning in and kissing my lips
i pull away and sit back in my chair biting my lip.
"i know you want to shout at me so bad, but don't want to cause of what i just told you." he chuckles
"just saying, you'll be the one explaining to my dad if anyone got that on camera." i say
