♫ Now playing - Boyfriend, Dove Cameron ♪
V's POV
My first day in California actually wasn't that bad, I talked with my cousins and my aunt during dinner and the skatepark here is pretty decent, and my aunt and cousins aren't all that bad. I mean my cousin Jake is a little nerdy, but he's still cool and my cousin Melina is pretty quiet, but I have a suspicion she's gay, I'll let her figure that out on her own.
Today being my second day, and the day I was meant to that thing with the neighbor but like, fuck that. After an otherwise uneventful day I head to the skatepark.
*Time skip a few hours*
While I was using my wax to ready a ledge for a trick, I wanted to attempt I hear what sounds like a girl crying. I look up to my left and just my luck, it's Alex. Now I don't like the girl but she's crying and its late I can't just leave her alone. So, I walk over to her.
"Hey, uh it's me V from next door." I say trying not to alarm her. "I noticed you were crying, did you wanna talk about it?" She looks at me quickly wiping her tears obviously embarrassed at the fact that I caught her crying.
"Yeah, I know who you are. Why didn't you text me?" She looked genuinely curious.
"I don't know, I- I lost your number?" I stuttered; I don't stutter.
"I put my number into your phone, how did you lose it?" She caught on.
"Okay I deleted it, I didn't really wanna hang out with you and your boyfriend," I told her the truth "And don't try and change the subject, why were you crying?"
"Well my now EX - boyfriend got mad at me and left me here."
"Oh." I try and process what she said "Oh! Do you want me to walk you home?" I ask, in hopes she'd accept my offer.
"I don't really wanna go home." she told me "Let's just go explore the city get my mind off of things, yea?"
"I guess I'm okay with that." I was more than okay with that, I mean I don't like the girl but, 𝐌𝐲 𝐆𝐨𝐝 she was pretty. She's also like really happy especially for someone who just got broken up with or did she break up with him? "Did you break up with him or did he break up with you?" I spoke my thoughts.
"I broke up with him." she simply stated.
"Wait so why were you crying?" I ask confused.
"Because, I didn't have a way home and I was cold, I kind of still am." Without a second thought I shed the light jacket I had on a gave it to her. "Thanks." it looks like she blushed, but it must have just been the lighting. I had to have been the lighting, right?
"Yea, yea no problem." I noticed I hadn't replied to her thank you. "Let's get walking, yea?" I stand up stuffing my hands into my pockets.
"Oh yea, let's get going." She stood with me and we started out of the park.
We walked in silence her and I only speaking up when she shows me something she found cool and me responding usually with a hum or a 'cool'. Up until we made back to my aunt's and her house.
"Thanks for this, I don't know what I would've done if you weren't there." She smiled awkwardly. To a bystander this would look like the awkward drop-off of a first date.
"Yea, anytime." I was about to walk away but I turned around "Hey, do you think I could maybe get your number, but like for real this time?" I ask her a bit nervously.
"Sure," she grabs my phone and puts her number in making sure its saved this time "I'll see you around." She says walking into her house.
I only noticed that I didn't get my jacket back from her when I was lying in bed, but I just smirked at the thought of her having my jacket.
