I slip through the front door and mom is already drinking her coffee reading a magazine. I go and sit by her and she looks at me with these eyes that are begging me to spill out my thoughts.

Luckily for her, it works.

"There's this girl." I say finally and my mom sighs setting her magazine on the coffee table then looking at me to go on with it. "Didn't you take drugs?" I ask suddenly making her jaw tighten after I ask.

Wrong thing to ask Ellington.

"I did. Now what about this girl you're talking to about-"

"She used to take drugs mom," I interrupted her. My mom raises her eyebrow at me and I shake my head. "She's a good girl. I swear she is. Her name is Rydel and she's so beautiful. I asked her to come over today but we got interrupted with our plans and ended up at hers. I just.. I want you to meet her. Tell her your story." I confess. A grin appears across my mom's face and she pulls me into a hug.

"Anything for you."

  "It's nine in the morning!" Rydel whines as I knock on the door the next morning. I could barely sleep last night, all I could think about was Rydel. How I could help her. Be there for her. Rydel's hair is in a mess as if she had just woke up. "Why are you here?" Ouch. I feel so wanted.

"I just couldn't wait to see you." I admit and I could've sworn her cheeks turned pink. "So.. Can I come in?" Rydel makes an oh sound and moved for me to come in. It's very quiet and I realize that nobody else is awake.

Oh shit.

Rydel runs her hand through her hair and I sit on the couch, she followed what I did. I look at her brown eyes and I grin. "Can you come over today?" I ask finally. Rydel stares at me and then nods slowly.

"Why do you want me over so bad? Just know, I'm not a fun person." Rydel admits and I grin.

Her bangs were in front of her eyes again and I just wanted to put my fingers through them and fix them for her.

"You're fun to me." I admit and Rydel grabs my shirt collar.

WHAT IS SHE DOING?

IS SHE GONNA KISS ME?

IS SHE GONNA RIP MY SHIRT OFF? THEN ARE WE GOING TO RANDOMLY HAVE SEX?!

.. Dear god, she'd look so beautiful.

SHUT. UP.

Rydel pulls me until our noses are touching and I could feel her heart beating. It was beating like mine: frantic. I like her. I like Rydel. Oh my god, I like her. I let my hands get around her waist and she wraps her legs around me and we just stay in this position. Our eyes kept staring at each other's and I didn't want it to be over. I start leaning in more until our lips are centimeters apart.

"I WANT SOME PAN- whoa." Rocky walks into the living room breaking the silence making Rydel jump and push me off the couch onto the hard wooden floor. I sit up on my elbows to see Rocky just looking at us both in shock. Rydel's face is cherry red. "And you guys claim you're just friends?" Rocky walks into the kitchen leaving Rydel and I alone.
