We strolled into the kitchen and i watched Oli search through the fridge, i took this time to take a good look at him. His long hair was styled in a messy way and he had a silver lip piercing on. He was wearing grey skinny jeans with black vans and a black t-shirt. How can somebody be so perfect. "i have a piece of chocolate cake...., a half eaten salad or a domino's down the road? Your choice" he asked shutting the fridge door.
"domino's sounds good" surprisingly i was actually in a pretty good mood, and i gave him a warm smile.
"ok lets go" he grabbed my hand pullIng me toward the door. His touch gave me goosebumps and i shivered. I think he's forgetting something...
"umm...Oli?" i said indicating my naked skinny legs.
"oh yeah, sorry about that, let me get you some tracksuits" with that he left up the stairs letting go of my hand, i heard his vans stomp around, wardrobe doors slam open and closed and then finally he came running back down and handed some black tracksuits and my white converse over to me. Great, i probably look like a guy. Nevertheless i thanked him and we were out the door and on our way to get some food.
"you up for a game of 21 questions?" Oli asked smirking.
"sure, you go first" i return the smirk.
We ask eachother pretty basic questions at first such as favourite colour, band, animal etc. until we reach Dominos. So far i have learnt that his favourite colour is blue, he likes meerkats and he joked that his favourite band is bmth. I also learnt that hes a vegetarian like me so we agreed on getting a large vegetarian pizza to share. Once we ordered it only took them 10 minutes to hand it over to us. Oli grabbed the pizza and we left quickly. As soon as we were outside he started sprinting towards what looked like a park. It was 10pm, what the fuck does he think hes doing.
"come on" he shouts laughing. And that was all it took for me to follow him. Maybe it was his cute smile or his sexy voice or just his cool style that made me like him so much. Jogging i watched Oli dissapear behind a hill in the park, i tried to catch up with him but when i finally crossed the hill he wasnt there anymore. Scared i looked around frantically searching for that lanky body until i felt some hands grab my waist and pull me towards them. I looked up and saw Oli's face smile down at me. His brown eyes sparkling against the moonlight gazing into mine.
He broke the silence after a while saying "come on let's sit down and eat, otherwise the pizza's going to get cold"
We sit down, indian style and carry on with 21 questions whilst eating. "ok question number 18, why did you choose to do music?" i ask.
"its kind of like an escape from reality for me, and i guess i enjoy it" good answer i think to myself. "ok next question...umm...are you in any way involved with music"
"nope" i said, which was a lie, i knew how to play guitar and i could sing, not very wellbut at least i enjoyed it.
"oh ok, can i ask you another question Chlo?"
"yeah go for it" i reply, worrying about what he wants to know. Shit, what if he asks about my parents, im not prepared for this, definatley not now. Then again, i could always refuse to answer.
"so you and that guy..."
"ash" i correct him, tensing up a little.
"yeah ash, are you guys like together or something?"
"mhmmm, we are, ive been going out with him for 2 years"
"but hes abusive and i see what he does to you and how he treats you." he gets louder with every point he makes. My eyes begin to feel watery. He doesnt understand. He has no fucking right to judge Ash like that, it's not his fault.
"stop it, Shutup, you dont know anything Oli" i say, standing up.
He stands up too and grabs my wrists pulling me closer to face him. "all i know is that you deserve better, so much better. Come on, youre lovely and beautiful and he...hes just an abusive dick"
I try to escape from his tight grip, shaking and trembling, as i feel tears cascade down my face "stop, just fucking stop"
And within seconds he scoots me closer. We're now face to face, i could feel his sweet breath on my lips. He looks into my eyes and then on my lips. I stop crying and my breathing slows down. "its ok...im sorry" he whispers hugging me, his chin pressed against the top of my head. "lets go home now, i think we both need a rest. The walk back is silent, which im thankful for. Even though Oli can be such a sweetheart he also has his flaws and i learnt that today. Even though i proply know him only one day i feel like ive known him longer.
Finally we reached the house and Oli unlocked the door.
"Oli are you sure its not a problem for me to stay?" i ask awkwardly. Even though im mad at him im trying not to show it. Of course i cant blame him, Ash does seem like an abusive guy but he has reasons. He's schizophrenic and i cant leave him, no matter what, believe me i've tried but when it happens hes always at his worst. He will go around my friends showing his scars and saying that im the reason why he does it. He will text me at night talking about his suicide attempts, and i just cant handle that.
"yeah of course. I hope you dont mind sharing a bed, its a king size though?"
"oh ok, you know i can always sleep on the floor?" i suggest but he just chuckles and says "oh stop being so polite, i mean im Oli Sykes, who wouldnt want to share a bed with me?"
I laugh unsurely but follow him up the stairs to his room anyway. And just like that he starts stripping taking of his shoes, shirt and jeans, leaving him in his boxers.
"dont tell me youre sleeping in that?" he points to my outfit.
"um.. No?" i answer but it sounds more like a question. However i decide to take my tracksuit bottoms of anyway and then i jump into the bed. Oli hopping in beside me, we lay on seperate sides of the bed looking upwards.
We're both very still until Oli dares to turn around and face me. I could feel his stare burn a hole through my face and i try my best to resist the urge to turn around and look at him. But that doesnt really work and when i fiapnally do spin around in the bed, he does something unexpected. He switches of the bedside light with one touch and then pulls closer to me, i could feel his lips kissing my forehead gently and then he whispers "goodnight Chloe, sweet dreams" leaving me breathless.
A/N surprisingly someone is actually enjoying this story so i decided to carry on with it. Sorry that its not that good, it my first story so i hope you guys understand. Anyway comment if you want more or you could also give me any ideas and things i should improve on. Thanks so much for the support.
