If you are Juliet then I'll be Romeo

Chapter 7: Knowing each other better

Hey! Hope you are enjoing the story as much as I enjoy writing it :) Thanks!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After discovering Larissa's hiden side I thought it would be better to know each other well. What a better day to do it than at the week end? So I went to her house without telling her. This wouldn't be funny if I had told her I prefer to surprise her and to spend time toghether.

Of course I'm not planning to appear at her house and tell her that so I thought we could do the homework toghether first. Don't misunderstand me I'm not using her but if I want to hang out with Larissa the whole weekend we should do the homework toghether so we won't have to worry about it later or to stay up late.

I get there and to be honest I was a little nervous. Don't ask me why because I don't have any idea. Her mom opened the door.

-hello, can I help you?_ she smiled at me.

-Hi, Mrs. Miller?_ I asked.

-That's me_ she said.

-Great. Is Larissa here? we are partnerss at school_ I asked smiling.

-She is upstairs please come in I'll tell her you are here_ she said_ what's your name?

-Sorry I'm Dustin_ I replied smiling.

-Dustin... you can have a sit if you want I'll tell Issa you are here_ she smiled in return and went upstairs. She look surprised and exited because of my visit. Maybe she doesn't has many visits.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up at 10:30 a.m due to it was saturday and I didn't have to worry about school. My mom brought me the breakfast to my room, which surprised me a lot because she hardly ever does it.

After eating I send a new post to the blog:

What is a friend? how to recognise a true friend? Maybe you think you have a lot of friends based on the number of people you added to facebook but are they really your friends?  It doesn't matter how popular, atractive or rich you are none has 3000k friends. You may know many people but only a few are true friends. The only way to recognise them is to remember how many of them have been with you in hard times and how many of them haven't.
A friens is always there for you when you need it.

Proud of my work I send it.

It was boring so I decided to read something. My favorite book 'The little prince' I know that sounds childish but that book is so meaningful and deep. It was a present from my dad when he wasn't busy all the time...

My mom came in while I was listening to music.

-Issa your friend is here_ she said.

-My friend?_ I asked

-yes, he said his name is Dustin.

-D-Dustin is h-here?_ I asked nervously.

-yes, he is downstairs hurry up_ she left me alone.

What the hell is he doing here? I know he is my friend but I never had someone home before and it makes me nervous. Ok I need to calm down and get change... I would die if he saw me in a pijama that has unicorns and rainbows on it.

-Larissa hurry up! your friend is waiting for you!_ my mom yelled from the living room.

-H-hold on!_ I answered.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

-Hold on!_ she shouted. It doesn't bother me to wait. I bet she was busy doing something else.

Her mom smiled at me and came to where I was.

-she must be getting change, I think she wasn't expecting you_ of course not! That is the idea.

-Yeah I think I should have call her first.. I apologise for that_ I said.

-don't worry_ she smiled gently_ she is not used to have visits_ she felt bad for her for a moment_ but that doesn't matter you are here and I know she'll be glad of spending time with you.

-I... hope so_ I said smiling.

-would you like some cocoa?_ she asked and I nodded.

-thank you_ I looked to the stairs and Larissa was coming down wearing a superman's t-shirt, tight jeans and a pair of converse, her hair was comb in a ponytail. She is so beautiful...

-hi_ she smiled.

-hi_ I smiled back.

-I wasn't expecting you_ she played with her hands.

-Sorry I should have tell you I was coming_ I looked down smiling

-Don't worry_ then a long silence came. I don't know why am I so nervous right now. Luckily her mom came with some cocoa and cookies.

-Here you have, Larissa would you like some cookies?- she asked looking at her with a smile.

-No I guess we can share them, can't we?_ she asked me.

-Of course_ I smiled.

-Ok... I'll leave you guys alone_ she left the room and then silence came again. We sat down in the living room and ate the cookies, which were delicious, I have to say.

We finished all our homework toghether and then I invited her an ice cream. Now we don't feel so uncomfortable and we are having a good time at the park. We were laying on the grass looking to the sky. It's a nice day to be here.

-tell me.. if you can choose a place to travel free with someone, where would you go and with who?_ I asked.

-Well I haven't thought of that... I don't know I guess I would go to... Holand with my mom of course_ she said_ what would you do?_ she asked me.

-Well I would go to Ireland with my lil' sister_ I answered.

-That's my second choice_ She said_ the landscape is awesome there.. it would be a dream.

-yup I know what you mean_ I smiled.

-my turn... what's the best thing that happened to you?_she smiled.

-I think it was when my dad finally realized he was more concerned for his work than for our family and decided to come more often_ I smiled when I remembered how exited my sister was that day.

-that's awesome_she smiled_ my dad also works a lot but I'm used to be alone with my mom_ I know how that feels Larissa.

-that's also awesome... my mom died when I was a kid... I only have my sister and my father. Sometimes I feel so lonely, is like I can't count on nobody... I shoudn't been doing my father's roll... but that's what I do I don't want Lacey to be alone too_ I explained her.

-that's so nice of you_ she looked at me smiling.

-thanks_ I replied_ let's talk about other thing, tell me about your passion for shakespeare, When did it start?_ I asked.

-Oh well I think it started when I was 10 years old my mom took me to the theater... they were playing Romeo and Juliet I immediately felt in love with the play_ she smiled_ the story is so tragic but at the same time so romantic.. the fact that both of them had loved each other till the end... makes impossible for everyone who watch or reads it. I know this may sound silly... but since that day I've imagine a lovestory just like that... but without the part of the deaths obviously_ she laughed.

-That's not silly at all_ I said_ it's beautiful... your way of thinking is beautiful_ I praised her_ When I read Midsummer's Night dream I thought it was so cruel when that fairy threw that shit which made them fell in love when they weren't but at the end I was glad both couples end up toghether.

-I thought the same.

We stayed there till 3 p.m and then we went to my house Lacey and Larissa get on very well so we were playing puzzles toghether. Both of them made jokes and we all end up laughing so hard. Definately I've made the right choice staying with Larissa she is not like Rachele and I'm glad she is not.
