Dangerous Love

Chapter: 3

When we got to the park, there were a few kids running around a smile playground. The playground had two swing sets, a slide and monkey bars. Leo and I sit on a bench face sing the playground. There was a path that walked around a big open field, I guess for sports or something like that.

"This is a cute little park. How did you know about this?" I ask Leo as I watch the kids run around.

"My mom used to take me here when I was younger." He said happily.

"Let's go walk around the path, just help with the healing." I said standing up and smiling down at Leo. He nodded with a smile and stood up as well. We start walking around and watching the kids playing sports around the field. There were kids playing tag football in one spot and kids playing soccer in another.

"Hey, we can go to the arcade after this, right?" Leo asks jokingly. I playfully push his shoulder and chuckle at him.

"Sure, why not." I say more as a statement than question. I remember that I've been carrying my bag since yesterday.

"Can we stop by my house real quick? I want to drop my bag off." I ask him as we come back around to the park.

"Yeah sure, where is it?" He asks as we walk past the playground.

"I'm renting an apartment down by the arcade." I tell him.

"Why do you have your own apartment, you're like... Seventeen years old." He asks me.

"I decided to help my mom out by moving out, and it's not that much actually. I have a good paying job. My mom still monitors what time I get home by stopping by before heading home." I tell him.

"Oh, makes sense." He says. We walk down the sidewalk towards the arcade. Hopefully we don't have to see the pool of blood on the sidewalk. Someone might have been called to clean it up. Surprisingly, the park was closer to the apartments than I thought. I guess I don't look really close at my surroundings. Looking up at the apartment building, I feel happy. I felt happy because I had someone to be with me instead of being alone all the time.

"I live on the fourth floor." I tell Leo as we walk through the front doors. We walk into the elevator and he pushes the button for the furth floor for me. Once we reached the top, I walked to the door at the end of the hallway. I take out my apartment and unlock the door. As we walked in, it seemed bigger than before. I think my realestate agent said it was 1500 square feet. Well I guess that is pretty big. Maybe I never paid much attention to all the space.

"How are you paying for this again?" Leo asks.

"I have a good paying job. Oh, and my dad is helping me pay for it. He's got, like, a bazillion dollars." I answered him.

"How much money does your dad make?" He asks surprised.

"Other than being a nurse around the world, he owns a computer company. So, a lot." I answer, laughing at his reaction. Once you walk into the apartment, there's the living room. The kitchen is behind the livingroom. Turning right from the kitchen there's a bathroom and turning right from the livingroom is my bedroom. The door turning left from the livingroom is a guest room.

"This looks bigger than my house. Well, parents house. I'm workin on movie out." Leo says, looking around my apartment.

"Well, if they decide to kick you out anytime soon, I have a guest room. It's a two bedroom apartment, but I had no use for the second room." I offer to Leo.

"I'll let you know." He said,  smiling at me. He stopped looking around and went to sit on the couch in the livingroom. I walk past the door to my room, throwing the bag in on the way, and heading to the kitchen.
