P.S. Destroy

Stutter

"Thanks for walking me home. If I'd walked alone mum would kill me." I laugh and Nick does too.

"It was a pleasure, you're nice talking to." He smiles. His smile is so cute. Ivy, get a grip!

"I'm scared that mum will be mad at me. I  haven't been out this late alone since last year and mum has always been really strict and is always checking on me. Honestly I'm kinda scared to walk alone in the dark or when it's late." I notice I'm mumbling and I don't know if Nick can even hear me.

"I get it. But whatever happened last year you're still the calmest girl I've ever seen just after they almost got hit by a car."

"You saw that? Oh gosh no!" I feel embarrassed even though I don't know why.

"I'm pretty sure everyone saw it." Nick laughs at my shocked face. "Anyway, I think you're really brave and calm and you can keep yourself together even during pressuring situations. I know you're pretty shy but still you dared to come with Andrew and the gang and you get through presentations in school even though I know you must be dying of nerves. You're an extraordinary girl Ivy." Nick smiled and I was stunned by his words. I felt myself start to blush. "You really are cute when you blush." I'm pretty sure I look like a tomato now. No boy has ever talked to me like this before. What do I do or say? I guess I should thank him?

"Th-thank y-you." I stuttered. Damn it. Why can't I suddenly speak normally?

"Is that a stutter I hear?" Nick Smirks at me like he did in the library and I can't help but blush even more if that is possible.

"N-no." I try to lie but my stutter can be heard again. Nick chuckles.

"You know you're really cute right?" Suddenly Nick kisses my cheek.

Okay, now may I die? My face is killing me with embarrassment, it's so red! Why did Nick kiss my cheek? Why am I feeling this way? What is this feeling anyway?

"Good night Princess." Nick smirks again. Little do I know that he does not mean it as only a nickname.

"G-g-g-good n-n-n-night N-n-nick." My stutter is worse than ever. Nick smiles to me and I feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Then he starts to walk away.

It takes me a few moments before I can move again. I slowly turn to the door and walk inside.

"I'm home!" Mimosa and mum appear in the hall.

"Who was that boy you were talking to? He seemed familiar." Aunt Mimosa looks like she tries to remember something.

"It was Nick, a boy from  my class." I see mum look slightly concerned. "He is one of my best friends from school." I try to assure her but I know she will always be at least a little bit skeptical. I would be too if I were my mother. The accident has left permanent marks.

"So is there something going on between the two of you. Tell your dear auntie everything." Mimosa smiles and pulls me over to the couch in our living room. I laugh a little at her excitement.

"I promise you, we're just friends."

"Is there someone else then?"

"Well..." I pretend to think and Mimosa looks so intrigued that I can't help but laugh out loud. She joins in for a moment. "No, there is no one at the moment."

"Has there been someone then?" Mimosa asks and suddenly I feel troubled. Mum looks at me and shakes her head as if to say that I don't need to talk about it if I don't want to.

"There was someone but I don't like to talk about it." I say looking down in my lap.

"We don't need to talk about it but I want you to know, I've been schooled to be a therapist even though my job is quite different. If you ever need to speak to someone you can always trust me." It helped to know this actually. I'd always have someone I could talk to.

"Thank you. It means a lot. Actually there was something I wanted to ask you." I made sure mum was in the kitchen so she couldn't hear. Mimosa nodded for me to continue. "Do you know anyone called Tina?"
