Australian Dream

Lost

Lizzy's POV

Slowly the door opened and the silence thickened.

'GOD SKIP, IT WAS JUST A FUCKING DARE!'

My heart sunk. The front door slammed shut and Beau returned to the lounge.

Luke looked at Jai . 'Jai. We need to sort out that thing.' He said.

'What thing?' Luke stomped on his foot. 'OWW! What the- Oh! Yeah. The thing. James we need your help.' Jai said as they scurried out of the room.

'I think I need to....erm.... Leave....' I awkwardly shuffled to the door.

Beau grabbed my arm. 'No....you can't walk all the way to yours on your own.'

'Beau... I..' His mesmerising green eyes looking straight at me. ' I'll walk myself home.' I snapped.

'Oh, y-you sure?'

'Yeah, but thanks anyways'

I walked out the door and plugged my earphones in. I got halfway down the street when could hear someone behind me, but when I turned there was no one there, weird.

...............................................................

Okay I'm officially lost. Like I'm lost in the streets of Glenroy. None of these houses look familiar and everyone's probably asleep and not likely to help a tired teenager.

'Need any help?'

'AHH!'

Beau jumped out from behind a wheelie bin and was standing in front of me smiling. I couldn't help but laugh.

'Erm, I'm...kind of...'

'Lost?' Beau cut in.

'Maybe..'

'Come on, I'll walk you home. Where do you live?'

'Just on the corner of Hilton Street.'

We walked to mine. It was silent. But it wasn't an awkward silence, it was a nice silence. It gave me time to think.

Why did Beau follow me?

Does he like me?

Did he really think the kiss was 'just a dare'?

Or did he feel something more?

'So that kiss, huh.' Beau said as we reached my house. He leaned against the wall.
