Elliot and Tara spent the afternoon driving around the unfamiliar town. The pair had now been in town for a few weeks they had yet to get out and see what it had to offer.
Which in short, wasn't much. Tara also just wanted to do something different all they do is drugs with Rue which is fun but she needed something new.
It was growing darker and they had pulled into a local park parking lot with the sunset facing them.
Tara rested her legs on the dash as she sunk into her seat. She let out a breath that she didn't know she was holding in.

"What do you think of Jules"

Elliot spoke as he turned the radio down so the pair could speak.

"Jealous, protective and selfish"

"Woah"

Elliot was taken aback by Taras's quick thoughts. Although she had met the girl once she had a terrible feeling and also hearing the drama she caused tainted any good thoughts she could've had.

"I saw them arguing in the halls"

"You think we got Rue in trouble?"

"Likely but that's rues place, not ours"

Elliot watched as the girl's eyes were fixated on the sunset.
He noticed as she bit her lip and slowly blinked. The golden light from the sun shadowed against her skin. He had never observed her in such depth.
The last few days had been so fast the pair truly hadn't taken a moment quietly. Nor completely sober. The pair had spent hours in the parking lot. Having all kinds of conversations. The sky had now grown dark, Tara placed her phone on the dash with the flashlight on so they could still see each other.

"You never shared your sob story"

Elliot was afraid to bring this topic up, he didn't know how Tara could react. But he was curious and wanted to know the girl more. She sighed and began playing with her hands, Elliot was the first person she had grown to trust in over 5 years and she didn't want to taint it.

"You don't have to tell me"

Elliot spoke, sensing her nervousness.

"I'm happy to, I just don't want to scare you away"

Elliot placed his hand on hers. Shaking his head.

"You can't scare me away"

She took a deep breath, organizing their hands in a way to be more comfortable. Digging into her mind to her younger days. Elliot shifted in his seat to get comfortable and face Tara more.

"It's not that complex or anything. When I was 14 my father committed suicide and I found him since then and my mom had a strained relationship. As she described I was off the rails"
