Sooner Than Expected

Chapter 7 - Him

"Mum, where are you?" Justin yelled into the phone "We've been waiting for you for thirty minutes" Silence "But it's an hour walking, and why?" Pause "He's where?!" His face was red "Okay, we'll be there in an hour" He hang up

"What's the matter?" I asked Justin

We had been waiting for mum since school ended, it had been half an hour and there wasn't anybody here, the school was empty

"We have to go to the nearest high school"

"St Maries" I answered automatically "Why?"

"Which direction?" He asked. I pointed to the right and we started walking "She said there was a car following"

I quickly assumed it was him. I mean, who else could it be?

We walked towards the other school, neither of us talking

Justin was right; when we reached St Maries an hour had passed

"So, where's mum?" I asked Justin, desperately wanting to seat down

"She was supposed to be hear" He said, scratching his head in desperation "Ugh, this woman is going to drive me crazy"

I sat down on the floor, knowing mum would take her time. She was either trying to distract him or she had gotten lost.

I heard Justin screaming on the back ground, like he always did when he got pissed off

"Sorry" A guy muttered when he hit me with his feet, not really caring

"Nothing" I said, closing my eyes

"Are you alright?" He said

"Yes" I simply said

He sat down beside me. I opened my eyes to stare at him. He was... Gorgeous, actually. He had blond hair and light blue eyes. His body was very good built, I could see it through his shirt, which had the first buttons unbuttoned and the sleeves were rolled up above his elbow. I stared at him like it was the first time I had seen the sun

"You could take a picture, it'll last longer" He said, smiling smugly. Oh, so he was the player type

I smiled and turned to look at Justin, who was by now ripping his hair off

"So, what are you doing here?"

"Waiting for my mum to pick me up" I took a look at his thoughts. Oh. He thought I was pretty, and in a none-jerk way

"I could give you a ride" He said

"No, it's okay" I said. Besides, I didn't know where we were moving, mum had kept it a secret

"You're not from this school are you? I would have noticed you"

"No, I'm from Jorgestown high school"

"That's far away"

"Tell me" I muttered

"And why are you here?"

"I don't know, my brother told me my mother said to wait for her here"

He looked at Justin, who was back to yelling on his phone

Wind blew and I was freezing. I pulled my hoodie sleeves down and zipped it until the top of my stomach

"You shouldn't be on the floor, its freezing" He said

"There's nowhere else to sit" I answered him

"Come inside, they won't mind, there's no one by this time"

"And why are you here?" I asked as I took the hand he was offering, helping me get up. I couldn't help but notice how his touch sent fire where he touched
