It was a really hot day and as I woke up and got ready for the day wearing ripped shorts and a pink singlet after I got changed I heard mum calling for me. I ran downstairs and started to eat with her. We had fried tomatoes, bacon and some hot chocolate. I didn't see mum for the whole day yesterday and asked "Mum, why weren't you home the whole day yesterday?"
Mum replied "Sorry dear, I was meeting up a friend that I haven't seen ever since my twenties"
I nodded, I guess it's okay for her to leave me for that type of reason because if it were my old best friend named Laura from Oak Town I would die to see her again.
After a bit of eating mum asked "So what did you do yesterday dear? I hope you didn't stay in bed while I was gone"
"Don't worry, I didn't, I had a great time with my best friend"
"Best Friend? We just got here and you've made a best friend?"
"Yeah, his name is Brandon"
"Wow it's a boy?"
"Yeah why?"
"Well, as long as he doesn't hurt you, I guess it's okay, but it's really good to hear that you have got a new friend to be with"
We ended up smiling at each other for a bit until I decided to tell her that I was going to go to Brandon and get myself tidy and clean. After getting dressed I said to my mum a happy goodbye and skipped off to meet Brandon again. There he was at, in our same old special place wearing just board shorts and leather converse. I guess it was okay for him not to wear a shirt because he looks so hot and I can't believe I talk to a guy like him. Anyway as I walked towards him my palms were getting sweaty. He just look so amazing! Once I got there I sat in front of him. He has a six pack! I tried not to get distracted and talked to him normally. " Hey, what's up?" I said nervously
"Nothing much, it's just a hot day though" he replied confidently "I forgot to ask if you had a phone number, if you do can I please have it in my contacts"
I replied, starting to get calm "sure"
So I told him my number so that we could message each other anytime we want and also hope that he was on at the time when I would be on. Brandon decided to lie down on the grass next to the small lake but I just sat up picking the grass. Brandon said "You look really pretty in your clothes today" I started to blush
"Well thanks"
I didn't want to mention anything about him being topless because that would make everything awkward. Especially since we are just best friends. I mean I wouldn't mind being Brandon's girlfriend but I've still got to figure out a way to know if he likes me back that much or not. He does hold my hand and hugs me and I kissed him on the cheek but I'm sure he thinks it was nothing but I hope not. Even though I'm dying to be his before any other girl does he would need to tell me because in my point of view I don't think it's right for a girl to ask a boy out. After a while Brandon got up. He sat next to me, leaning on his hands and shuffling towards me. I looked at him and smiled then I looked at the lake. It was just so wonderful and blue and glittery every time the sun popped up and it made me more comfortable here with Brandon.
