After a few seconds of him thinking over what i said. He leaned down and hugged me. Why would he hug me? The only people that ever did that was Karl and my parents when I was little. I gotta say it was really nice. I missed being hugged and loved but I would never admit that out loud.

He just hugged me for a bit, I myself hugged back being careful not to burn his jacket with the cigarette between my fingers. In that couple of seconds I felt in peace and safe. I felt like I was gonna be ok. That i don't have a care in the world but sadly everything has an end including that hug.

I take one last inhale from my cigarette and then smash it between my foot and ground so it doesn't start a fire.

"Please don't do anything stupid, ok? Even tho life hasn't been the best it is never late for it to change."

"I am just tired of waiting for it to change, I have done that my whole life and it still hasn't and I don't see it happening any time soon. Anyways I am gonna start heading home."

"Let me drive you, I have a lot of free time."

I nodded and let him lead to his car. I sat in the passenger seat and gave him directions.

When we reached the house I turned to him ready to say goodbye, when he gave me his phone.

"Put your number in."

It didn't seem like he would take a no for an answer so I agreed. I typed it in and said my goodbye's. And so I got out of the car and to my house. Once inside I went straight to my room where I changed and took a nap. I was woken up hours later by the light coming from my phone.

There were a lot of messages. I opened them starting from my dads contact.

Dad
"There is money on the counter order some dinner. Me and your mom are gonna be back late."

Of course they were out. I was home alone like always.

Unknown Number
Hey, it's Clay
What r u doing?
And also text me when I need to get u tomorrow morning. I am driving u to school, no objections.

Me
I was napping and also never. I am walking to school.

I smiled at the fact that he was so sure i was gonna agree to making him my persona driver. I go downstairs and put my shoes on. It was dark outside and I loved to go out in the dark. I grab my phone and keys and go out down the street and after a while I see a playground with benches and what I was looking for, swings. I go to the swings and sit down.

Dumbass
Don't make me sleep in front of your house to make sure u don't walk to school! Because I literally will!
Don't test me!

Me
Piss off, I am gonna walk to school! I don't care about what you want.

Dumbass
u did that to yourself
sorry not sorry

Me
What did i do?
Clay?
What the fuck did i do to myself?
No...
U wouldn't dare...

Dumbass
Why are all the lamps in your house off?

Me
Because I am not home?

Dumbass
It's 9  o'clock, where r u?

Me
I went out on a walk
AND WHY ARE U AT MY HOUSE?

Dumbass
I told you what I was gonna do if you declined
and it's late get back here it's not safe outside after dark.

Me
Yeah, u r right
I am so scared that any second now a werewolf and a vampire are gonna attack me
Omg when the vampire sucks my blood out he is gonna basically giving me a hickey
u r probably jealous of the vampire, i bet

Dumbass
Yeah I am jealous
so when I see you I am gonna make sure to leave a mark behind so the vampire will know who you belong to

When I read that I blushed and locked my phone. I decided to head back home. Even tho the night was amazing. Tonight the sky was clear so you could see the stars and there was a warm breeze. I loved nighttime when everyone was asleep and everything seemed peaceful.
