Thea

"I think we should do some shopping for you Thea" Grey says infront of me.

It's been a couple of days, maybe even a week or two since I met Grey. I told him my name and I don't know why believe me.

I came in park few minutes ago, because some men came for her. Grey still doesn't know that I'm literally leaving besides him but that's great to me.

Even though I don't know how he did not saw me, but okay.

In this past two weeks, nothing changed. Other than I talked with Grey almost every night at the park. I don't know why I'm doing so but I am.

I don't know why is he doing this.

"Why? Something is wrong with my clothes?" I ask as I exhale at him, he denied the cigarette today and few days ago. But I'm okay with that, I won't force anyone to do something they don't want to. It's just weird, since he did it before and now he doesn't.

"No,no. But it's just colder and I noticed that you only have a few hoodies and this jacket" he said but I don't react. He's speaking true thought. I do need new clothes but I'm almost out of money.

"It's fine" I say and exhale besides me, he looks at my cigarette and then at me and then my cigarette again

Just as I'm about to ask him if he wants it he says "You shouldn't smoke. It's not good for you" he says and I furrow my eyebrows and my whole face

"You smoked before. Why are you telling me all this?" I ask him and he nods

"I know. But I'm trying to not to anymore."

"Good for you. Also, I do know it's bad for me. No need to tell me that" Some people smoke to enjoy it but some people like me, smoke to ..end it before. If you know what I mean.

"Okay, I won't force you. But I will force you to go shopping. C'mon, I need some stuff too" he says and I groan as I stand up

He smiles and I drop cigarette at the floor, stepping on it and some leaves too. Autumn is here and it's pretty as always.

"You haven't been in school for a long time" he says and I nod, walking besides him

One day he asked me which school am I going to and I answered him because I don't care and why not? When he told me that he's going in the same school, that I already knew-

Not because I am a stalker
I am not.

but because he literally lives besides me, okay one house and then it's his. Of course he will go to my school.

So I also called Tory and Zayn one day and they met. They hang out in school without me because I'm not going in school. I don't care thought,of course they could hang out. Why would I care?

"Why is that?" He asks and I shrug

"I'll go soon if I feel like to. Teachers and principal are not even shocked by me not being in class for week or even a month." I say as I shrug, I know that it's bad to not care about school but c'mon if you had a life like mine would you care about school?

No. Definitely not. School is 'future' and do I see future for myself? Hell no. What a funny question.

"Do you need to redo your notes? I could borrow you mine if you need to" he says and he I narrow my eyes at him

It's so weird that he's like this to me but when we hang out with my friends he was cold and dry. I notice that he's dry and cold with all people, people in stores etc.
