Layla's story

Ch8

I rushed home after the last bell rang. I needed to get home and change my outfit. What would I wear. I slammed my locker and ran outside.

"Layla, what are you in a hurry for?" I turned around. Leon and Claire were walking towards me. 

"I'm not in a hurry. What would I be in a hurry for?" I could tell Leon was studying me. He chuckled at me.

"Are you sure, You're turning quite red Layla." I felt my cheeks turn even more red. Claire looked  happy but a little upset like something was wrong.  I tried to walk to her but my phone rang.

"I got to go, see you later Claire. Bye Leon." i started running again but Leon called my name again.

"Layla please tell me where your going." I smiled and stopped running.

"To learn how to ride a horse with Chris, Should be fun." I could hear him Laugh as I ran home. 

                                                                                   At Home

As I walked through the door I could hear my mom.

"Layla is that you?" I closed the door before I answered.

"Yes mom it's me." I walked up stairs and into my room. I need to change before I called Chris to pick me up. I put my bag up and walked over to my closet. I need something that I could wear while riding horses but it needed to look good. After looking through my clothes three times I ended up picking a  violet puffed sleeve shirt and some light blue ripped jeans. I loved this outfit. I wore it on the first day of school last year. The year Hardin was still here with me. I could Feel the tears running down my face. It still hurt me thinking about him. I wiped the tears away and put on my boots. When I had finished getting dressed I went down stairs, told mom I would be home at 8:00 and walked out the door to leave. I waited for ten minutes till I realized I had forgot to call Chris. I called him and waited for him to pick up.

"Hello." I was glad to hear his voice. I felt a warm feeling when I was with him.

"Hey Chris." I heard him chuckle.

"What's up. Are you still Coming over?" I felt my cheeks turn red.

"Yah, There's a little problem though."

"What is it Layla. Are you hurt?" I laughed a little.

"No I just need you to pick me up. I'll send you my address." I could hear him breath then laugh a little. 

"Yah I'll come pick you up. see you in ten minutes ok." I felt my cheek turn even more red. He would be here sooner then I thought. I waited for a few minutes. but he never showed up. I got up to go back to the house until I heard a car coming. Please be him, please be him. I turned around and saw his car. My heart did a backflip. I ran towards the car. I stopped to open the door but it was already open. Chris had opened the door for me. I got in the car. A few seconds later he was in the car too. We drove to his house. 

"You ready to ride a horse?" I saw him smile 

"Yah this should be fun."  I heard him chuckle as we drove away.
