A Friend Of The Flames

CHAPTER FOUR

BEEP BEEP BEEP

My alarm went off at 5:30 fucking am. I got right into the shower, after I was done, I changed into navy ripped up skinny jeans, a black tee (with the sleeves rolled) and my vans. I dried my hair and did my usual makeup. Filled In my brows, concealer and mascara. I grabbed my bag, leather jacket, my iPhone 6 and an apple and left for the bus. I take the city bus every morning so I have to get up early.

You're probably wondering how I got my iPhone 6. Jen got the 6s and gave me her old one. I put in my headphones, clicked shuffle and IFHY by Tyler the Creator came on.

END OF THE SCHOOL DAY

Just as I grabbed my stuff from my locker I heard my phone beep. I look down and its Johnny.

You busy? I can pick you up from school and we can play video games again or something.

I quickly answered sure and in 20 minutes he pulled up in his black escalade. I'm never gonna get used to being driven around.

Once we got to his house, I took off my shoes and sat on the couch. We played NHL 15 for about an hour and he drove me home.

This little thing continued for about two weeks. Almost every day he'd pick me up and we'd play video games then he'd drive me home.

Today was different. Its December 3rd and its been snowing like crazy, a bunch of roads are closed so I'm surprised he was even able to get here.

It took extra long to get back to his house, which inconveniently was on the exact opposite edge of the city, but we finallyyy did. We did the normal with video games for about two hours when I got a text from my mom. I didn't hear it beep but Johnny did so he handed me my phone. And read the message too.

Hey honey. Its crazy out there. I think it'd be best if you stay at your friends tonight. Its okay if you're late for school tomorrow

Knowing that Johnny read it, I looked at him.

"I think it'd be fun if you stay over. SLEEEEOVVVERR" he yelled. I laughed as he ran up the stairs. Thank god I ALWAYS have extra makeup in my backpack.

"Come here" he yelled from upstairs. I got up and jogged up the stairs and into what I'm guessing is his room. Where he was digging through is drawers.

"Here. You can sleep in these tonight. I'll put them on the bed in here. This is the guest room you can stay in." He said leading me down the hall.

"Okay. Thanks. Now back to video games!" I said running down the stairs. We kept playing until about ten pm. "WOAHHH TAKE THAT I WON BITCH" I yelled throwing my hands in the air. I looked over at Johnny and our eyes met. It felt like the world stopped. Not trying to be mushy and stuff but really... It was different.

"Um, another game?" I said.

"Uh i um yeah. Yeah. I'll be right back." He said getting up and walking down the hall.
