MIKE'S POV

The days were passing and I couldn't find a flat next to the forest. My dad and my stepmum moved faster than I thought but I think they've planned everything a long time ago just waiting for me to be old enough so they can just run away. I still can't get over it and I think it won't happen that fast, that was my home for 19 years for the fuck sake. I should find a job cuz I'll feel so uncomfortable paying with the money my dad gives me. But school and work... That won't end well. I can be a waiter after school, they don't pay million for it but it's still kind of begging.

On the other hand, the things with Alex are going very well. We meet everyday at the coffe and our art class, when I see him so early in the morning it just make my day.
" Helloooo " - I noticed Alex clapping in front of my face trying to get my attention. We were at the coffee as always and in the middle of our conversation about dinosaurs I started thinking about where I'll leave, completely ignoring him.
" I'm sorry. I wasn't listening. " - I said and I swept my hair back. And I remembered. I brought him flowers. I brought him flowers cuz of that hotel thing and stuff and now when I think about it, flowers just can't compare at all to that he dine for me. But the flowers were beautiful, it was really hard for me to choose them but I did - they were roses, but not just red roses they were dark dark red like blood and less bloomed. Don't ask how I pit them in my rucksack but lets say it took time.
" I have something for you that I completely forgot... " - I said as I was tryin to get the bouquet out.
" Oh, y-you didn't had to... " - He was blushing and I gave it to him.
" I really had to... I know that looks so stupid because you did a lot for me but.. "
" No. I like them. " - He didn't let me finish me sentence, it looked like he really likes them so I was happy. I looked around and I saw them. They were whispering something and I knew now I'm in a big trouble. They saw me giving flowers to a boy but as long as he's around me they won't come closer. I didn't used him, no. That was just one of the good sides of having a friend I guess. But he wasn't my friend. We kissed, friends don't do that, right? They deffently don't do that.

My grades are getting lower and that's bad. After all this things that happened I couldn't focus at all in class and at home too.
" Hey... Are you free on Saturday? " - I asked as we were walking through the corridor.
" Erm, my parents won't be in town so yeah "
" I was thinking if we c-can go to the um cinema? There's this film - "Lights Out", I watched the trailer and it's amazing. We should tottaly go ! If you want of course.. "
" Yeah, why not? "
" Really? " - I smiled and I hugged him, we were outside school now - " It's at 8pm so let's be there at 7:45, okay? "
" Sure, I'll pick you up " - The wind messed up his hair and couldn't stop my laugh.
" You don't have to, I have legs and I can use them or I can use the bus and I love buses cuz.. "
He just turned his head and looked at me. I shut my month.
" So we'll see each other tomorrow "
" Yes, Goodbay "
" Baii "

The whole Saturday I was thinking about our cinema plans. What should I wear to not look homeless? I don't "chill on da mall" like the other students. 3pm. I felt like the clock was getting slower and slower cuz to make me angry. I was just walking around the cold empty house.

The time came and I was nervous. I decided the wear just a t-shirt and my denim jacked that I haven't wear since last year. I'm not a denim guy to be honest. I heard the door bell and I went to open. And there he was, his curls were everywhere. I wasn't sure if he's trying to look like The Weeknd or it's just the wind but I liked it.
