I leave ten minutes early and try to contain myself.
Why am I excited?
This boy is mysterious, strange, quiet, and did I mention incredibly handsome.
I'm intrigued.
I could use some distraction in my disastrous life, and I think this is just the medication.
I sit at the same spot as I did last time.
After about what seemed like forever I heard a snap of sticks.
I try to compose myself not acting to jumpy but also not interested.
"I thought you weren't going to show." He whispers.
"I guess I liked the rush."
He doesn't let his expression waiver.
"So was I right?" He asks sitting beside me.
I purse my lips.
"Yes."
He rubs his knuckles and gives me a small pitiful smile.
"I'm sorry I couldn't save you."
Um.
I give myself a second go register his outfit.
Ripped in the knees black skinny jeans, a Nirvana muscle tee and his hair slightly brushed down.
"I still can't believe he's going to be a dad."
Finally the boy cracks a sarcastic laugh.
"He's in high school and is going to be a dad, and your worried about him being dad in a more joyful way," he runs his hand through his hair.
Before I can comment on his confusing statement he continues.
"Yeah I'm sure his life is going to be perfect. Clarissa is going to skip her last years in high school, forget college. Calum is going to be working double time while going to school. And your going to be that pitiful girlfriend he had while he got another one pregnant."
I feel tears brim my eyes and I bite my lip.
He's so right.
He's so captivating.
He is making me realize things I've been to blinded to see and I've known him for literally a day.
I let a tear escape and his hand is quick to wipe it.
It's not hard or rough it's soft and the calluses on his fingers graze my skin in the most love struck way.
"Don't cry. Don't let tears fall for that douche.
"I know."
"You think you do."
"How can I save myself?"
"You let me show you the way."
