DRUNKEN KNIGHT - YUNGBLUD

~Creep~

After talking for a while and getting to know each other better, we realized we had a lot mutual beliefs and values and two similar personalities, except he was very loud and I was very quiet. At least around the people I didn't know well enough.

There was something about him though that was making me fall and fall and fall repeatedly, without thinking of my parachute. It was easy to talk to him and trust him with my thoughts.

"Betta to go back inside, it's freezing!" he finally said after our conversation about our favorite bands ended, and got up from the cold cement.

"Am I boring you?" I asked in a kinda serious way.

"No! Not at all! I thought ya had realized that by now! But it's really cold, I don't want ya to get sick because of me! C'mon!" he offered me his hand and I took it, I got up from the ground as well and followed him inside.

"Well well! Welcome back mates!" Lewis gave us a sly smile when he noticed us getting back in the apartment.

"It's not what you think it is!" I quickly said.

"I said nothing!" he chuckled and danced away.

"That cunt is crazy!" Dom shook his head and we laughed.

"Anyway! I think it's time for me to go actually! I had fun though! I mean it!"

"Really?!?! So early? What about another beer? Just one more!!!" Dom gave me puppy eyes.

"I don't wanna end up falling asleep in a bus, getting robbed, ending up in a completely different destination.. blah blah blah! Stop trying to get me drunk!" I joked.

"Nothing of this will happen, cuz I'll take ya home! I don't drive, but I can always be in the bus with ya and make sure ya get back home safe!"

"How about no?"

"How about yes?" I'm coming with ya even if ya wanna leave right now!"

"No!"

"Are we leaving? Let's go!" he ignored what I said, linked our arms and made me walk with him.

"You're so stubborn! You know that right?"

"Hell yea! When it comes to things like this, I definitely am.. I won't let some freaking twat try to take advantage of you.." he spoke as we made it out of his building.

"I've told you before that I can protect myself though!!!"

"I knoooow! Is it that bad that I wanna join ya on your ride back home?"

"Huh! It's fine!" I raised my eyebrow.

"Just smile to me man!"

"Haaaappy?!" I asked him and showed him a big fake smile.

"Yea! Very happy!" he smiled at me in the most contagious way and I ended up cracking a real smile myself.
"There ya go love!"

"The bus!!! Run!" I shouted as I noticed the bus had arrived at the bus stop. We thankfully ran and got on it in time.

"All the way to the back my lady!" Dom said and we went to the back seats of the vehicle.
"Wanna listen to some music?" he asked me once we sat, I nodded.

He took his phone out of his pocket and plugged in his earphones, he put one of them in his ear and gave the other one to me. Soon enough Queen's Somebody to Love started playing. I sat there still and enjoyed the music while Dom played air drums and mumbled to the song.

"Excuse me!" a voice sounded and I looked up.

"Yes?" I questioned and Dom looked at the young man in front of us as well.

"I was just wondering if you're single and if I could have your number! I just think you're really pretty! It'd be such a shame to not try!" the guy said.

"Uuumm..." I looked at him confused and then at Dom that he had an even more confused expression on his face. Why? Did it seem weird to him that somebody thought I was pretty enough for them to come ask for my number?

"No pressure! I just thought it'd be better to approach you and ask, than not do it at all, even though I wanted to." the guy shrugged.

"I'm sorry! I don't even know you, so!"

"I am Luke, if that helps a little bit! I just want your number, I'm not a creep! I promise!"

"That's exactly what a creep would saaaayyyy!" Dom said in an almost singing voice. I gave him a death glare.

"Is he-.. Are you her boyfriend? I'm sorry!"

"He's not my boyfriend.. You just caught me by surprise..."

"Oh! I have to get off soon, so I really hope you'll change your mind!" Luke exclaimed.

"Fine, okay! Hand me your phone.." I stretched out my arm and he gave me his device, I fastly put my number and name in and gave it back to him.

"River? Nice name!" he complemented me after looking down at his screen.

"Thanks!"

"Well, I'll talk to you later River! It was nice meeting you!" Luke waived and made it to the door of the bus to get out.

"Wow!" Dom said all of a sudden.

"What?"

"Nothing! Just wow..! This is the first time I witness something like this!"

"It was quite charming, no?"

"Or creepy! Dunno, maybe! You'll prolly never reply back, right? He could be one of the twats we've talked about!"

"He didn't seem that bad... I didn't know you too before I started hanging out with you.. You could be a twat too! But here we are!" I shrugged.

"Ya.. You're right I guess.." he quickly changed the song and said nothing else until we reached our destination.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When the bus stopped at my area, we both got off and walked to my house, mostly in silence.

"Okay! Just get in the house man! I'll walk back to the bus stop!" Dominic patted me on the back and I groaned.

"You shouldn't have came all the way here... Now you'll be out there all alone!"

"Don't worry. Worst case scenario a creep on the bus will hit on me!" he sarcastically said.

"You're not funny! What's so wrong about it?" I asked in a serious tone.

"Nothing! I'm just teasing ya! See ya tomorrow Riv! Goodnight!" he put his hands in his pockets and started walking away.

"Text me when you get home!" I shouted.

"Okay mum!" he shouted back and continued walking.
