Chapter seven:
Alicia pov:
After the day at the beach I can honestly say I really like it here in california. I really want to say that it is not because I feel like I am falling head over heels for Alijah. But then I would be lying.. As we were at the beach shanice left with one of alijahs friends. So I ended up going home with Alijah to my dismay.
As we were driving home he asked if we could start over and that he would earn my friendship. Honestly he did nothing for me to hate him or dislike him. So I obviously said yes and he has been the sweetest guy ever. He still has those cocky remarks and such but other than that I am really starting to fall for him. He asked me if I could go on a date with him and because I am actually seeing the good side of him the sweet side. I said yes.
Now I am standing in my full length mirror looking at myself in the mirror. My hair is straight at the moment and I am just dressed casual. Alijah said to wear something casual but nice so I decided on a regular outfit with my purse.I went and took a picture for instagram and then grabed my phone. As I grabbed my phone I heard the doorbell. It must be Alijah.
I walked downstairs and saw my mom talking to Alijah. He was dresssed in a nice polo tee shirt, Jeans and the latest jordans. i could drool over this man.. I didnt even notice I was at the bottom of the steps staring freely at Alijah. My mom was giggling at me and Alijah had on an amused smile. I walked up to him and gave him a hug.
"You look beautiful" He whispered in my ear as I gave him a hug. I blushed. Oh my gosh. I do not blush. Ugh. I am falling too hard for this man.
"Bye mom, I will be back by curfew. promise." I said to my mom as I grabbed Alijahs hand and walked out of the door. We walked up to his car and he opened my door as I stepped in. By now I was cheesing so hard It was hard to believe.
"So where are we going" I asked as he started the car and pulled out of the drive way.
" It wouldnt be much of a surprise if I told you" He said with that beautiful smile of his. I just laughed and tried to figure out where we were going.
We have been driving for about 30 minutes and we were finally at our destination. It looked like we were at a warehouse type of thing. It was quite odd. I stepped out and left my purse in the car. We walked around the warehouse to a lit up pathway towards the woods. I grabbed onto Alijah as we walked through it.
"Your not going to kill me now are you" I joked but half serious.
"Now why would I kill someone I like so much.." He said and I could feel my face heat up luckily its dark and my skintone is darker so You wouldnt be able to see it much anyway. We walked through the woods for a good 3 minutes in comfortable silence. At the end of the trail there was a opening. We walked through the opening and I saw the most beautiful boat ever. It was white and was lit up to fit with the dark night.
"Wow" I said and let out a breath.
"You like it?" he asked putting his arms around my waist. I nodded and walked towards the candle lit table. Alijah pulled out my chair as I sat down and than he went around the table to go sit down in his chair.
"I am glad you like it." He said with the smile I have come to love. I smiled back.
"So what do I not know about you?" I asked him. That is how our conversations went for the next half an hour.
I found out that he was born october seventeenth 1996. He was raised with his mom since four years ago when his dad got sent to jail. He only has two siblings his twin brother and sister. He loves the colour red. He likes a girl that can be real with him twenty four seven. I also told him that my birthday is on december sixteenth 1996. I was raised by both my parents until they divirced recently which is why I moved favourite colour is baby blue and no siblings.
"You know what else you dont know about me?" He asked me after a moment of silence.
"And what is that?'' I asked genuinly curious.
"A girl moved into the house next to me. she is honestly the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. I honestly think it was love at first sight. Uhm and that girl is you."
(A/n): Hope you like it. It is longer than usual i think. They will be waaaay longer and I left it with a cliffhanger so vote comment and share. The song on the side sort of fits in the mood of the chapter.
