Chapter 12

I sat on my couch and I started thinking about that kiss. Now I forever will love the water because of that one moment. That one moment has changed the way I think of water for the rest of my life.
I sighed and I started twirling my hair with my finger. I stopped.
Since when did I twirl my hair? I put my face in my hands.
This boy is seriously making me go crazy. I shook my head.
I heard a knock at the door and I snapped my head towards it. That should be Summer. She called and asked how everything was.
I stood up and I walked towards the door. I opened it and instantly froze.
"Noah, what are you doing here?" I asked as I looked around making sure no one else was here.
"Let me talk." He said.
"I'm listening." I mumbled. He tried stepping inside but I blocked him with my arm.
"You don't want to piss me off Noah. I will punch you." I threatened him. Noah stepped back.
"Look, I'm sorry if I freaked you out a little." I laughed.
"You didn't scare me. I just don't like you like that." I said in a matter of fact tone.
"I don't believe that for a second." He rolled his eyes.
"Look, I just...I have a lot of other things on my mind and you aren't one of them." I said as I slammed the door in his face.
I sighed and I laid on the couch.
I shook my head at the ceiling.
I don't have feelings for Noah...right?
I got interrupted by the phone ringing. I was a little startled, so startled that I fell off the couch. I sat up and quickly grabbed the phone.
"Hello?" I asked. I cleared my throat.
"Naomi?" I heard Leo ask.
"Leo!" I said that way too excitedly. I instantly regretted it. He laughed as you could hear some people around him.
"Meet me at the park." He said.
"Why?" I asked smiling into the phone.
"Just trust me." He said.
"Okay..." I mumbled as I hung up and walked downstairs.
I walked until I got to the park. Where the heck could he be?
I felt someone's hands go over my hands.
"Guess who."
I turned around and there stood Leo.
He was wearing a black sweater and denim jeans. He pulled me into a hug before I could say anything. I was a little startled. He smelt like cologne. Is it weird I know that?
He pulled away and looked down at me, a slight pink showed on his cheeks.
"Sorry." He mumbled.
"It's fine. I missed you too." I said.
"So, why did you ask me to come here?" I asked.
"Well, I haven't seen you in like a week. Plus, you said that people and nature help you with writing." He said as he gestured towards the park and the people in it.
"Thanks. But, I'm almost done with the second book." I said as I smiled. I can't believe he remembered that. He pulled out a cigarette box out of his pocket and he took one out. He put the lit cigarette to his lips. I watched while being a little entranced.
"Do you want some?" He asked me once he noticed. I shook my head.
"I don't like doing stuff like that. It was never my scene." I said.
"Your scene?" He asked as he blew the smoke in my face.
I coughed and I stepped back.
"Sorry." He said as he faced the other way.
"It's okay. The kids at the orphanage used to smoke while I was younger. But I vowed never to smoke. Mason does it, because it's his escape from the world. But my escape is writing." A smirk appeared on his face with the cigarette in between his lips.
I looked away, being afraid I'd start blushing.
I looked towards the people and the kids feeding the ducks.
"Naomi, about the last time we hung o-"
A fire truck siren sounded from the distance. I looked towards the street.
"Please don't tell me it's going where I think it's going." I mumbled.
The fire truck speeded down the street.
"Oh no." Leo mumbled. He threw the cigarette on the ground and he squished it with his foot. He started running down the street where the fire truck was.
"Wait!" I said as I started running after him.
I knew where the fire truck was going...and I wasn't looking forward to it.
