I was lying in bed wondering what to do tomorrow with Brit I told the boys they were on their own. When my phone started ringing it was graveyard boy.
“Hello?”
“Hey, what are you doing right now?”
“Lying down. Why?
“That guy at the coffee shop the other day he your boyfriend?”
“No I don’t have one, but Im talking to someone why?”
“Want to go out tonight?’
“It’s almost midnight.”
“Yeah that’s when the city comes alive.”
“What do you have in mind?” I ask just as Brit walks in the room from taking a shower
“There’s this movie thing in a park I know. It’ll be fun.”
“I will go if I can bring my friend with me.”
“Deal should I bring a friend also?”
“Sure if you’d like.”
“Hey how am I to know if you’re not a crazy killer.”
“True. Text me directions and I’ll meet you there.”
I hang up the phone to see Brit giving me a look. I just smile at her then get up and go get dressed.
“Where are you going?”
“Out get dressed you’re coming with me. We’re going to a movie thing.”
“Are we going to get in trouble?”
“Trouble me no of course not.”
I set there and smiled at Brit thinking this was going to be fun but my brain said if I walked out that door I would lose Sean. I don’t know what made me keep moving but I did.
We got out of the cab to see Zane and his friend standing there. Zane had a huge smile on his face and I couldn’t help but smile back. Brit watched me walk up to them. She had a look in her eye like she was going to yell at me but didn’t.
“Graveyard girl you make friends with the living.”
“You’re so funny.” I joke
I look at Brit and I see her smile like she knows something I don’t know.
“So this is my friend Brit. This is Zane and his friend.”
“Oh this is Peter.”
“Hello Peter.” I smile
‘Hi.” He looked at us like he didn’t want to be there.
I turned around to see Brit texting someone one. I gave her a look like what are you up to.
“What?” She looked at me confused
“Nothing, who you texting?”
“Jon.”
I just looked at her with horror. Oh good Sean is going to kill me.
“Come on I have a spot saved.” Zane smiled holding out a hand
I looked at his hand for a second before I reached and held on. There was something about the way his hand fit mine it felt natural. It felt like he should be holding my hand and no one else belong this close to me. I looked at our hands it was like something spiritual almost. I don’t know how to explain it but if I could have stayed in that moment forever I would have.
I looked up at him to see was looking right at me smiling. I just smiled back then I felt a nudge on my side I looked at Brit and she had a grin on her face.
