Forever Alone

Finding Home

*Gabby*

     When we arrived at my aunt's place Christopher parked the car right behind Mikael's. I turn and look at Christopher, he grants me with a big cheeky smile and laughs. "I really didn't think this night would come. You accepting to go out with me, Gabriella." I blush and smile, "Well i didn't think it would come either, but I'm so glad that it did. I had a lovely night Christopher, thank you." He grabs my hand from my lap and brings it up to his lips, kissing it and letting his lips linger. Oh goodness. I look at him and I see that look in his eyes.. We slowly lean into each other and he gives my lips a small peck, finally giving in we let our lips move.The rhythm of our lips like a slow song. He slowly pulls back and caresses my cheek. "I'll be sure to contact you tomorrow morning, I could give you the realtors number. Hopefully then you both will find a suitable place away from this horridness." "Thank you, I'm sure we'll be able to find something, and if we do I'll call you to let you know." He smiles and we both make our way out of the car.

     Mikael makes his way out and finally Esme comes out. We all meet right in front of the house and we all say our goodbyes. Mikael gives Esme a wink and Christopher grants me with his famous cheeky grin, which I think is secretly saved for me. Esme and I make our way up to the stairs after the guys leave and go straight into the house.

     "Alright Gabby spill right now!" Esme is pulls my arm into her room and we sit down on the bed, "Ummm well.. You first! I mean you and Mikael hung out here for a while so i assume you have more to tell." Esme rolls her eyes at me but finally smiles and tells her part of this magical night. "We got to know each other a little more than before.  He was asking me cute questions like do i prefer hot or iced coffee? Dogs or cats? Those type of questions, which I think are important. It's the little things that count the most." I nod, "Well Christopher and I had to wait almost two hours for our table but when we finally sat down the waiter came to take our orders and we both said the exact same thing at the same time! Which I thought was cute. And we obviously talked about my new job." Esme makes an O shape with her mouth, "How'd he take it?" "Well he understood why I didn't accept his, simply because they didn't call me fast enough. I mean before I was bummed about it but I mean I figure it takes at least a week for a call back, but what's done is done. So we're okay I guess with that. As long as I'm happy." 

     Esme talked about the rest of her night and how she really felt like she was falling for Mikael. I couldn't blame her, he seems like the charmer! And also the fact that they actually have things in common, not a lot but mostly. I guess what they say opposites attract. At least that's what happened with Christopher and I. He was the complete opposite and I mean in EVERY aspect. And I'm just this lonely well not orphan but girl who was tragically left behind due to my parent's accident. Don't get me wrong I am so grateful that my aunt and uncle took me in their care, even though I am 22 years old. But now that we are getting kicked out, I would have rather stayed at some other relative's house. My parents weren't wealthy, and what little money they had, I used so that I could pay some of the funeral expenses left over and credit card bills. 

     Tomorrow will be a new day and Christopher promised me that he would send over the realtors contact information and then soon we'd be moving out from this hell we call home. Now try to start finding a new home.
