♤ Mavis' Point Of View ♤
I had went home to my family's house for the Halloween holidays (Although I'm going back to town to be with my friends on the day of Halloween).
The whole time I was there was awkward with my mother asking have I any young man in my life and my father asking when he's going to get grandchildren. I felt like throwing up the entire time.
When I finally got time to myself I decided to go for a walk just along the road outside the house.
As I was on my way back I received a text from Taylor:
Message received from: Sweet Tits
I sniggered at the nickname I gave her.
"Hey Mavis, I was wondering, do you maybe wanna meet up for coffee?"
I texted back:
"Oh God of course I can't stick this house anymore, the Starbucks down the road from Queens right?"
I left a note for my parents telling them I went out and caught the bus into Belfast.
When I got to the coffee shop I peered in and saw Taylor sitting at a table by the window. She waved as soon as she spotted me and I grinned and raised a hand in reply.
"So," She started as I sat down at the table with a mug of molten hot chocolate "how has life been treating you?" She took a sip of frappuchino and I watched, hypnotised as a droplet of liquid rolled down her bottom lip and she wiped it away. "Oh! Uh, yeah it's been pretty awful, my parents are boring as all hell but it's nice to see them now and again." I hurriedly spat out, hoping she didn't notice the heat blazing over my cheeks.
"Are you okay? You look like you're overheating." She gave a concerned frown. I had to take a long drink of my hot chocolate, scalding the inside of my mouth, to not fixate on the way she licked whipped cream from her drink off her upper lip. I nervously cleared my throat "Y-yeah I'm fine, just a bit warm..." She didn't seem convinced but let it slide. We continued talking for another while until she had to go and so did I.
