The Boy In Red~#wattys2015~

"I thought you might have wanted some privacy."

His question shocks me and after I have time to think it through I say,"Yes." My heart jumping in excitement. I open my mouth to ask, "Can she come-" I turn around to point at Rixanah but see that she's gone. Classic Rixanah leaving me alone in a situation like this, oh she will pay for this later. Seeing his confusion I say, "Never mind." and step into his room.

I look around seeing the same bare cream walls. The same white sheets lay on the bed with a mahogany bedside table. I see a black suitcase in the corner which I assume is his.

"Sit down." He points to the bed and I do as I am told. He throws me a navy blue hoodie and I embrace the warmth as I put it on.

"Thanks." I smile at him and drown in his eyes once more.

He smiles and leans against his chest of drawers, opposite the bed. "You go to Oak Hill High right? I've seen you on the bus in your uniform."

"Yeah, you go to Mill Brook County High right? I've seen you on the bus in your uniform." I say playfully.

"Yeah I do." He says, the corners of his lips turning up. Goodness his lips, they're so full and soft looking and ugh I just want them on mine.

After a few moments of silence he says,"I know lets play 20 questions to pass the time."

"Okay. You first." I smile.

"How old are you?"

"15. When's your birthday?"

"8th of August." My mouth flies open in shock. "What?" He asks confused.

"We have the same birthday." I say grinning.

"No way!" He chuckles.

"What's your name? You still haven't told me." I ask.

"I'm Samuel Hastings." He smiles and holds out his hand for me to shake.

I laugh at the gesture but shake his hand and say,"You know I always wanted to be called Samantha. My name is Jennifer Johnson, but I prefer to be called Jen."

"I'm gonna call you JJ." He smirks. I hate that nickname but the way he says it, it just sounds ... right, annoying but right.

"What's your favourite colour?" He asks.

"Green." He looks at me with a shocked expression. "What? Did you expect me to say pink or something like that?" He nods. I laugh,"I hate pink. Anyways do you have any siblings?"

"Yes, two sisters Emily and Chloe and one brother Tom. Any pets?"

"Yep I have one cat called Leo." I reply before asking,"Celebrity woman crush?" Maybe if I touch the subject of crushes and all, he'll ask what my ears are begging to hear.

"Umm Jennifer Lawrence or Emma Watson." He smiles shyly.

"Oh my gosh. Same." I grin at him. I can't believe it, were so alike and he's just so... perfect. The more I get to know, the more I like.

"Anyways my turn to ask, are you single or taken?" He blurts out quickly as if to not change his mind. My heart skips a beat at his question. Does he feel the same about me? Does he need me as much as I need him? Realising my silence he says, "I mean I'm just-"

I cut him off and ask in shock"I thought you'd never ask,but why?"

He smiles and with a smirk says,"Just answer the question, JJ."

I roll my eyes at the nickname. I open my mouth to answer but a knock resounds through the room.

"Come in." Sam says.

I see Rixanah appear in the doorway and she says," We have the key."

I look to Sam and say," I'm sorry I have to go, thanks for the jumper."

I start taking the jumper off but Sam says,"Keep it. It looks much better on you anyways." He smiles and my heart melts.

"Thanks and by the way I hate that nickname."

I start walking to the door but hear his voice,"You never answered my question. JJ." He adds.

"Bye Sam." I reply cheekily and close the door behind me. I lean against the door to calm my thumping heart.

"Nice jumper." Rixanah says whilst winking.

"Shut up." I say and slap her arm.

"Come on, spill the beans." She states, walking into our room.

I follow her and tell her about my conversation with Sam. "Where did you go? Why did you leave?"I ask at the end remembering her betrayal.

"I thought you might have wanted some privacy. It turned out for the better though didn't it?" Rixanah replies cheekily.

"Yeah I guess." I sit and play with a pillow.

"So do you think he likes you?"

"Do you mean like like me?" She nods. "I don't know I mean he's implied that he does but I don't know. I think so, I hope so. He did give me his jumper." I say and smirk.

"Do you like him?"Rixanah asks.

"Obviously I mean what is there not to like?" I say whilst grinning. She winks at me and we start getting ready for bed.

I lay in bed in Sam's jumper inhaling the mahogany scent, thinking about our conversation and thinking about Sam.
