Chapter 6 "I was so desperate to be understood that I would grab people and shove them inside my heart- where they stuck out like splinters, and it would hurt every time I felt anything"- Eliot Knight
We talked, me and mason.
We got to know each other a little bit, I think you could say that we're officially friends! He's not as bad as everyone says, no one but his friends knows the real him, and now I'm going to be included.
When we talked it was magic, he listened as I talked about my favorite things.
"What about you?" I question looking at him, he's looking up at the stars "what about me?" he asks confused, he looks at me as I answered "well you know my somewhat favorite things, it's your turn"
He smiles, "okay what do you want to know?" he asked. I think for a minute
"Everything, I want to know everything"
He looks at me and then sighs "let's start with the basics" he says and I nod, "my favorite color would be black or grey" I smile, that's so cliche "of course, it is" I laugh, and he looks at me while smiling his dimples popping out "what?" he questions "oh nothing it's just every guy likes those colors," I say waving it off "continue," I tell him "I also love sour candy, I listen to the weekend, Travis Scott, A$AP Rocky," he said, "hm I don't think I've listened to any songs from them," I said to him, he shakes his head "ill make you a playlist for you, and you should make me a playlist too" I like the idea of him making me a playlist "okay deal," I say back
We continue talking about random things, our hopes and dreams, and whatnot. It feels great having someone listen to you and I mean listen.
Soon after we leave the park, he helps me up to his truck and closes the door, once he starts the car we start pulling out "can I play a Taylor swift song?" I question with a grin, he looks back at me "sure, play whatever you want," he says
I play You Belong With Me and start humming along while he drives us far away from the park
"Would you still want to hang out or do you have to go home?" he asked
"Maybe tomorrow, I have to go home," I say back, and he nods his head "I understand" he pulls up to my driveway "thank you so much, Mason, I had so much fun being with you" I thank him for the great time "of course" he answers with a smile
After getting off and saying goodbye, I get inside my house "mom, I'm home" I say out loud, I wait a minute but nothing comes back just silence
I let out a breath before going to my room, I change into my sweatpants and a hoodie, I wish I had Mason's hoodie. No, he's just a friend.
