POV.

I was in the woods having a quiet time with my thoughts. I was enjoying time alone. The sound of nature as my mind ponders. I was relaxing on the bench messing with the broken wood in between. It was super relaxed with the environment I didn't want no one to disturb it.

(Rustling)

I could hear rustling from the bushes behind. I got up to investigate. Trying to find out what was making noise in the bush.

"Roar!" Eddie spooked me. He jumped out the bush as I backed away in fright. "Hey sorry." He apologises with a smile on his face.

"You idiot. What you doing in the bushes?" I yell.

"You know you're cute when you're scared." He points out.

"I wasn't scared." Defending myself.

"Yeah right." Eddie goes to sit on the bench.

"I asked you a question." I order.

"I wanted to hang out here. You know it's not just your favourite spot." He spoke getting his tool kit out.

"My favourite spot?! How do you know?" I ask.

"Well you spoke out aloud and by the way you think you can relax here. It's so quiet all you can hear is your own breath." He speaks.

"And your point is?" I ask.

"I come out here to get away from everybody."

"Yeah me too." I answer sitting down opposite him.

"Are you okay though?" He asks. I nod. I look at his tool box. "What's that?" I ask. He looks at it and then back at me.

"Just the hard core drugs. Wanna try some?" I frown at the idea.

"Yeah, no thanks. I'll pass." I says he nods and puts it away.

"So tell me, what does a guy like you do in the woods alone?" I asked, trying to make conversation.

"I do need a break from people but most of all I just come out here to do drugs." He speaks.

"Wow!" I say surprised.

"Why you surprised?" He asks.

"I didn't really expect that of you. Eddie the banish. The freak. Well he just so happens to be a druggy too." More reason to love him more.

"Well, I wouldn't mind being miss popular and miss I get my way." I opened my mouth.

"Hey! I'm not that bad you know. I just so happen to have a nice life. Better than some peoples actually." I say with confidence.

"Well if you don't mind I will take my drugs and go because I was actually looking to do this alone." He grabs his box and walks off.

"Eddie!" I call. He turns.

"Let's go then." I answer. He looked taken back.

"Really?" He asks.  I nod. Not sure I was ready. "But if you want to try you want something better than what I have in here." He states.

"Oh really." I ask.

"Yeah but you would have to come back to mine. I leave it at home." I nod. I walk towards him.

"Let's go." I walk past him ahead of him. He follows behind while we go back to his car/van and to his house.
