“So, what do you think?” He asked me after the silence between us had finally broken, looking down at the table. “About the poem,”
“It was lovely,”
“Thanks,”
“No really, it was beautiful, I never really liked poems but that one really moved me,”
“My dad wrote it,”
“Then he’s very clever,” I chuckled.
“I hate my Dad,” He added quite suddenly.
“Oh, I’m sorry,”
“Nah don’t be, I don’t like him,”
“Hm, why don’t you - if you don’t mind me asking?”
“Oh, just...do,”
“Oh, there must be a reason!”
“There is,” Then he leaned in and smiled “But not one I’m willing to tell you,”
“Ha, ha!” I giggled crossing my legs in the hard wooden chair I was sat in, restricted by my super skinny leather jeans (yup) I had to cope with the pain. “So, why do you live in a wood?”
“I love trees,”
“You really expect me to believe that that’s the only reason?”
“Yes,”
“Oh harhar!”
“You live in the rough flats up there?”
“Huh, yeah,”
“You live on your own, or..?”
“I live with my 18 year old sister Brianne and my best friend Morgan, who’s 23,”
“Ahh, how old are you?”
“23,”
“I’m 25; it’s cute when a girl has a boy best friend,”
“She’s not a boy. Morgan is very much a girl!”
“Ooop! Sorry! I thought Morgan was a boy’s name?”
“It is, doesn’t mean Morgan isn’t a girl!”
“S’pose,”
“So, back to the necklace, why is it so special, you never answered me, why are those pieces of paper in side, what makes it so special?”
“I know I didn’t answer that’s because I don’t want you to know, because they are okay,”
“Ah, I see, you won’t tell me...will you tell me what they mean?”
“No. I won’t,”
“Pleeeaaase?”
“Aww, who could resist you?” He said pouting at me.
I just laughed and tossed my hair jokingly in a flirty way “No-one!”
“Well I can resist you, I’m not telling you London! Sorry, I barely know you, I can’t tell anyone anything like that after only meeting them twice,” He winked.
“Oh, kay then, I’ll just have to stick around then Blake!”
“Oh I am overjoyed!” He said sarcastically, and I seriously could not tell whether he was being truthful or not.
“Yes you are...but seriously though, will you tell me anything about anything to do with...this?”
“I’ll tell you one thing,”
