"Shoot. Why didn't I bring a jumper?" I ask myself while rubbing my arms in low hope to warm my shivering body. We where walking down the street, cold winds and drops of rain setting the seen. "Oh here Riley have mine" Oliver said and started to blanket me in his puffer jacket. I slipped my shaking hands through the sleeves. "Thanks" I said. My hand swung by my side, brushing his.
We just walked like this for a while until he stopped walking, caught my hand and placed it inside his. "I think..." I start, looking down at our hands, locked together. "...I think the Starbucks counter lady thinks I'm a boy" I finished and looked deep into his eyes. "Starbucks it is then" he laughed "I'm in the mood for a chocolate thick-shake"
OLIVER
Starbucks was nice and warm, but Riley kept my jacket on, almost oblivious to the warm. My fingers still locked into hers, we walked to the counter,
"Two chocolate thick-shakes please" I ask getting my money out.
"Cream?" The lady asked without looking up
"Yep"
"Names?"
"Oliver and Riley"
"Be out in a minute"
"Cool bananas"
Riley giggled then looked up at me smiling. Beautiful.
"Oliver and Riley chocolate thick-shake"
Two large bottles where placed on our table, Riley starting drinking immediately, I slurped mine down, sip by slow sip. I beep sounded from Riley's phone. "My mums coming to pick me up soon" she said looking disappointed, I must of looked pretty sad too because as soon as she saw my face she said "I'll ask her if I can stay longer"
Perfect.
